EastEnders fans work out who will be blamed as Keanu Taylor’s body is found – and it’s NOT one of The Six
THE mechanic was killed by The Six but fans reckon someone else is going down for it
EASTENDERS fans are convinced they know who will be blamed for Keanu Taylor’s death after spotting a tell-tale clue in tonight’s episode.
The mechanic – who was played by actor Danny Walters in the BBC soap – was killed at Christmas by Linda Carter.
Viewers know he was trying to kill Sharon Watts and Linda saved her by stabbing Keanu instinctively with a close-at-hand meat thermometer.
The two women – and Denise Fox, Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar and Kathy Beale – covered up his death and buried him under the cafe.
In tonight’s episode his rotting corpse was finally found – but not before Jack Branning managed to remove wife Denise’s necklace from the site.
He had caught Denise and Stacey attempting to do it themselves and stepped in to stop them making any mistakes.
And just in the nick of time he managed it, before a drunk Bernie Taylor and Alfie Moon stumbled in and made the horrifying discovery.
Soon police cars swirled around and Bernie told all the neighbours how there was a body in the cafe.
But as the police questioned her and Alfie, there was an intriguing mention of rapist Dean Wicks.
The villain had been in the Queen Vic the night of Keanu’s death, and in tonight’s episode stole the money from daughter Jade’s charity fundraiser to afford their flights to Pakistan.
“There were two kids hanging round so maybe they got in somehow,” Bernie told the police.
Alfie added, clear as day: “Dean Wicks was passing by, maybe he saw them both.”
And while Stacey approached each of The Six alone to update them on Jack’s involvement and how they have got the necklace back, fans think the Dean reference will mean he goes down for the murder.
One wrote: “It’s not been lost on me that Alfie mentioned to the police that Dean was walking past the cafe when those kids went past either. Possible framing incoming?”
A second said: “Dean being seen near the cafe right before the body is discovered.
“Him going straight to Ian and Cindy about wanting out of the business all of a sudden. Him then clearing his daughter’s charity bank account.
“It will only be a matter of time before people remember that public argument he had with Keanu and connect the dots.”
Another added: “I agree with those who think Dean’s going to end up framed for this. It’s all a bit too consequential that he’s making plans to leave on the same night as all this kicks off.”
