EastEnders fans believe they've worked out the real murder weapon used to kill the mystery male in the Christmas flashforward.
Earlier this year, the soap revealed that someone will be murdered this Christmas in a special flashforward episode that saw six Walford women — Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar, Linda Carter, Sharon Watts, Denise Fox and Kathy Beale all standing over an unknown corpse at the Vic.
The episode flashed forward to Christmas 2023 where a wedding was taking place at the Vic. It was soon revealed that Sharon was the bride as she was wearing a blood-splattered wedding dress.
Stacey could be seen with blood on her hands, Denise was holding a broken bottle of champagne, Linda had a split lip, Kathy had a ripped dress sleeve and a mystery male was seen lying dead on the floor of the pub.
At first, it seemed like the broken champagne bottle was the murder weapon — but now fans think it could be something else after a clue in last night's episode (Monday, October 23).
Recently, the Panesars welcomed two new additions to the family in the form of Ravi Gulati's fiery ex-girlfriend Priya Nandra-Hart (Sophie Khan Levy) and his secret daughter Avani (Aaliyah James).
The toxic family reunion happened after Ravi's son Nugget (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury) had been missing for weeks and was found hiding with his long lost mum Priya.
Following their arrival, Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry) insisted that the pair move into his home, much to the dismay of his wife Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal).
During last night's episode, Suki struggled to deal with the two newcomers in her home and she remained at loggerheads with Priya.
However, fans spotted a subtle clue when Suki removed their colourful vase from the table as she prepared breakfast.
The mother and daughter didn't have many belongings when they came to the Square, except the vase which holds a lot of importance for the pair as it was the only thing they bought that they did not need before having money struggles.
When Priya and Avani went downstairs, Priya noticed the missing vase and moved it back onto the table.
The constant focus and movement of the vase had fans convinced that it was significant in some way and believe that it will be used to kill the unknown male at the Vic...
I'm starting to think that awful vase is going to be the murder weapon and its gonna be Nish (hopefully) that is the victim!! #EastEndersOctober 23, 2023
That vase is going to mean something for sure... Suki or Priya will end up using it to protect a loved one or defend themselves #EastEnders pic.twitter.com/r1bWaUVJETOctober 23, 2023
