The Six were gathered around a dead body – and we think we know who (Picture: BBC)
One EastEnders fan has uncovered a new clue that hints towards the identity of the Christmas murder victim, and we totally didn’t expect it.
If you’re an EastEnders fan, you will be counting down the days to Christmas Day – 97 if you need a hand – and the discovery of who is dead on the floor of the Queen Vic.
Back in February, viewers were treated to a special flash forward episode that showed the dead body on the floor, surrounded by six potential murderesses, who have since been dubbed The Six.
Consisting of Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth), Denise Fox (Diane Parish), Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), Linda Carter (Kellie Bright), Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal) and Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), The Six were seen standing over the body in various states of disarray – some with ripped dresses, others with split lips and a couple covered in blood.
Just your average Christmas Day, you know?

So far, EastEnders have kept the identity of the body a complete secret, with even the cast having been kept in the dark.
However, one fan believes that they have worked it out, and it is all thanks to a previous Christmas episode that puts two men in the frame to be the body on the floor.
When we scanned the flash forward scene for clues, we couldn’t help but notice that the roaring fire in the background seemed a little out of place. It’s not often that anyone lights a fire in the Vic – unless they intend to commit arson.
Because of this, we have been wracking our brains as to why the fire has been deliberately lit, and why we can hear it crackling over the dulcet tones of East 17.
Originally, we wondered if The Six may end up setting the Queen Vic on fire themselves in order to cover up the body, but since the reports of a fire set to rip through the café this autumn, we quickly erased that theory from our wall of clues.
However, one EastEnders fan has taken to TikTok with proof that the fire is important, as we had suspected, and showed us all how it proves who the victim is.

According to the fan, the body on the floor belongs to… Drum roll please…
Martin Fowler.
We know. We didn’t see it coming either.
In the video, the fan takes us back to Christmas Day 2019 and a very familiar soundtrack.
As the camera pans over a fire, the sound of the flames crackling doesn’t distract from our favourite East 17 Christmas song, and who should be standing over the flames but …read more
