- Who killed Lucy Beale? We’ll find out tonight!
- Bobby Beale 5/2 favourite at time of writing.
The near-year long EastEnders storyline of who killed Lucy Beale reaches its conclusion tonight, with Bobby Beale and Billy Mitchell the latest characters to attract money in what bookmakers are calling one of their busiest ever TV Specials markets.
EastEnders will finally reveal the identity of the killer this evening (February 19th).
bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth told Crunchsports.com: “The market has been running for 10 months with everybody seemingly having a different opinion/theory on ‘whodunnit’.
“You get the feeling many punters will have delayed watching PSG v Chelsea on Tuesday to look for a clue to who killed Lucy – with Abi Branning’s odds shortening after Max’s line before the credits.”
Bobby Beale remains at the top of the betting in bet365’s Who Killed Lucy Beale Odds market at time of writing, and such is the demand in the market, the British bookmaker will be betting ‘In-Running’ during tonight’s episode when the killer will finally be revealed.
EastEnders’ executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins had earlier this week admitted that the killer could still be “anyone”.
At the start of the year, Eastenders highlighted a number of possible suspects, with Emma Summerhayes seemingly meeting the killer after cracking the case.
But speaking on BBC Breakfast on Monday, Treadwell-Collins insisted that every character is still in the running – appearing to hint that the killer may not be one of the names on the official suspect list.
Speaking about the conclusion of the whodunit, he said: “I can’t tell anyone at the moment! We’ve narrowed it down a bit to about 11 people, but it still could be anyone.
“We’ve been very firm from the beginning that there are twists and turns all the way through this story. So the betting’s still on – it could still be literally anyone.”
He added: “On Thursday, by the end of the second episode – the flashback episode – all will be revealed.
“And then on the Friday, you find out why.”
