The festive season is an exciting time for EastEnders fans, with this year's being more anticipated than most, after a historic flash-forward scene in February confirmed a shocking death.
The episode in question saw six female characters, Linda Carter, Denise Fox, Sharon Watts, Kathy Beale, Stacey Slater, and Suki Panesar, come together during a lock-in at The Vic.
The women toasted their beverages to all the men who have hurt them over the years, hoping that they would one day get what they deserve.
A subsequent flash-forward scene saw the day of judgement come for one male character, as the same women, now known to fans as The Six, were seen Christmas Day standing over the corpse of a dead man.
The identity of the victim has been shrouded in mystery, with viewers desperately trying to work out who it could be.
One of the possible candidates is Keanu Taylor, who is due to wed Sharon on Christmas Day. As viewers have seen, Keanu has descended into villainy after he staged Albie's kidnap in a bid to prevent Sharon from taking him out of the country.
The truth of this incident has yet to be revealed to Sharon, and viewers are also aware that Albie is not actually Keanu's son - recent scenes have seen Sharon discover that he's secretly Phil Mitchell's.
The identity of the Christmas murder victim could still be anyone's guess, but new filming pictures seem to rule Keanu out completely. Danny Walters, the actor who plays Keanu, was spotted filming at an airport for upcoming EastEnders scenes, which appear to depict Keanu making a quick getaway and saying goodbye.
It's possible that these scenes will take place after Christmas, which means Keanu is still alive following the events of the festive season.
What's also intriguing is that Danny was also spotted filming with Lauren star Jacqueline Jossa at a funeral. Why would Keanu be saying goodbye to Lauren? The characters haven't really been in each other's orbit before, so it's a puzzling situation.
TV series and movies often film fake scenes while shooting on-location in a bid to keep the actual story details under wraps, so it's possible that what we see in these pictures won't actually make it to the screens.
