It's going to be a big week on EastEnders - as Rocky's exit is teased and another resident faces danger.
EastEnders is gearing up for its big Christmas storyline, with many men in the frame for being the dead body on the floor at the Queen Vic. So far, there are many names in the frame for the dead body - with viewers also trying to guess who the person who kills the man is, with it likely to be one of The Six - Kathy, Stacey, Suki, Linda, Denise and Sharon.
