TONIGHT WAS THE big night in Eastenders’ “week of revelations”, with the culmination of the ten month-long Lucy Beale murder storyline.
Yes, Lucy’s killer was finally revealed, after numerous twists and turns that frustrated viewers no end.
So – who’s the murderer?
Er… it was 11-year-old Bobby Beale, Lucy’s step-brother. A pretty decent shocker, no?
In ultimate creepy child-mode, Bobby grips a jewellery box (presumably the murder weapon) and tells a devastated Jane:
Whatever she says, she started it. She made everyone unhappy.
Shudder. Here’s how Twitter reacted to the mental twist.
People were mostly unimpressed
