EastEnders trailer 'confirms killer' as crucial song clue links to past scene

EastEnders viewers may have missed a crucial clue in the new Christmas trailer ahead of a shocking death.

Something about a song playing on the jukebox in the clip may be very telling as to who turns killer this Christmas. One viewer has spotted a link between the scene and a past episode on the BBC soap, involving one of the suspects.

Now, this combined with other clues from episodes, trailers and theories could suggest one of two of the suspects will definitely be the killer this Christmas. There's a song playing in the trailer on the jukebox, while the other tracks are mostly not visible to read.

While some have been identified, one viewer worked out what song was being played - and realised it was played in a past, and possibly crucial, scene. Taking to X, the viewer said: "ON THE JUKEBOX IN THE TRAILER ‘IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER’ IS PLAYING.

"THROWBACK TO THIS SCENE BETWEEN DENISE AND KIM IN DECEMBER (!!!!!!!!) 2020 - IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER IS PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND." In the scene in 2020, Denise was panicking over the return of her serial killer ex Lucas Johnson.

She was keen to stop him from getting what he wanted, saying it was "all about power", and she said she was Lucas' "weakness". She also referred to the moment he locked her up and faked her death, resulting in residents going to her funeral.

We now find ourselves at a point where all if not most of the suspects have all the power, from Nish Panesar to Dean Wicks, or have committed awful acts against the six suspects. So if the song clue, which must have some relevance, has any significance it can surely be safe to say Denise could well be the killer.

With her recently having a run-in with Ravi Gulati and her possibly about to face heartbreak with husband Jack Branning, could one of these be the victim, as Denise turns killer? Something else about the jukebox also sparked suspicions that Kathy Beale could be the killer.

Actress Gillian Taylforth previously appeared in a behind-the-scenes episode, where the words "Jukebox Gilly" were displayed on her dressing room door. With the jukebox being such a major clue in the trailer, fans are convinced Kathy will be the killer, or that she and Denise could team up and cause the big death.

Taking to X, one viewer said after recalling another past scene: "AND ITS DENISE AND KATHY WHO TOUCH THE JUKEBOX IN THE FF EP. KILLER KATHY AND KILLER DENISE??" Another wrote: "It’s got to be Denise or Kathy. It’s got to be."

A third viewer said: "This just popped into my head as a repressed memory. Searched on Twitter & it was there! Yeah it’s a long shot but what if this is relevant somehow? Gilly T = “Jukebox Gilly” = Killer Kathy?"
