Christmas wedding KILLER revealed!
EASTENDERS
Just over ten months ago, an extraordinary thing happened when the show did a fast-forward to Christmas and viewers saw Sharon checking a man’s pulse and declaring to five other women, ‘He’s dead’. Ever since, viewers have been playing detective in the drama known as Corpsegate. Which of the six women in the Queen Vic — Sharon (in a wedding dress), Stacey (hands covered in blood), Denise (clutching a broken champagne bottle), Kathy, Linda and Suki — is the killer? And who is the dead person wearing the cufflinks we last saw on Phil the night he became engaged to Kat? Christmas Day starts happily enough, with Sharon resplendent in white lace, holding on to Keanu’s arm and walking up the aisle with young Albie. What could possibly go wrong? Just as the couple are set to say ‘I do’, in comes Phil and tells the congregation about Keanu’s part in Albie’s kidnap. To have and to hold from this day forward? Keanu will be lucky if he makes it a minute forward, let alone a day.
So, after an outburst from Sharon, The Six end up in the pub and a man surrenders to the Grim Reaper.
Is it Nish, killed by Suki? Or, in a case of mistaken identity (the show has been making Nish and Vinny look almost indistinguishable from one another), has she killed her son? Has Sharon killed Keanu? Linda killed Dean? My wildest theory is that the corpse is Grant — in a mistaken identity situation involving Phil, given that in a certain light, both men look like boiled potatoes.
We are promised that the lives of The Six are going to be changed forever. Maybe they will form a band — The Vice Girls. At least we can be grateful that the corpse isn’t George, who on Christmas Day shares a charged moment with Cindy. It can be only a matter of time for this pair, and let’s hope with her real mum back on the scene, Gina will start getting advice on what not to wear. It’s winter, love. Put your Marbella midriff away.
