SoapSquawk needing confirmation says everything.

Though if it is true then someone is getting sacked.
Soapsquawk didnt specifically ask for confirmation

I think different endings were a given! If they had just one filmed then it would be a lot easier to leak before it aired.

I am wondering what Stacey's key unlocks. I have a feeling it leads to a stash of money that Stacey stored away in case she ever needed a quick get-away with Lily to make another new life. We haven't seen it since she gave it to Lauren - so as far as we know she still has it, unless someone found it in the Branning house and Lauren doesn't know it's missing yet - we'll find out on Stacey's return at least.

I'm also betting Jake is the next one to turn up dead. He'll ever be involved in this drugs thing in some way or stumble upon something he shouldn't.

I do find it funny that Lucy is on coke, and 2 new characters (well one not so new but now permanent) have cropped up, one 'Charlie' and another with the surname 'Coker', I'm probably reading too much into the 'Coker' bit, but he was involved with Charlie - and I'm sure he's got something to do with this.
I don't believe the stuff on Twitter. Les Coker has been a recurring character off and on for years. Plus, he was visibly nervous when dealing with Charlie Cotton, first in bringing the coffin to Dot's house. He was also worried about what was in the coffin. And when Charlie gave him money, he was even more nervous.

I would take this with a big pinch of salt, because if it's true, then this storyline would have no impact on Walford changing forever; instead, it would be this era's Darren-Impregnates-Heather.

Lucy was killed by someone she knew.

I've not looked at the link but apparently it reveals the story outline and also the killer. That's really upsetting, I bet Dom is furious right now and rightly so. Hopefully everyone involved finds themself swiftly dismissed and prevented from working for the BBC ever again. How disappointing that someone has taken upon themselves to spoil it for everyone. I'm so angry about this.
I would hope he's pissing himself laughing at the absurdity of it. How NOT to get casual viewers back.

Not being on twitter I am not au fait with everything, asked a mate who got it who also watches EE what she thought and she said this person has lots of followers. Far more than just a simple fan account..
I mean people put fake spoilers on twitter all the time but this person has like 62k followers including some of the journos?

But like I said I am not au fait with twitter so from others who are does it look genuine?

You make some very fair points and the person concerned is sticking to their guns.Odd.

Doesn't look genuine. The grammar is awful, structure is all over the place and it's all downright confusing. He only has 200 odd tweets yet over 60k followers. With him not being a celebrity that makes it a strong possibility that he has bought his followers. 99% of his tweets have been jokes such as "Broken cross? Call CruciFix" and although he reiterates that the "leak" isn't a joke he describes himself in his twitter bio as a "comedian and joke teller".

I highly doubt that DTC leaked it, or that the other 3 people he told would have. There would be a huge amount of trust between DTC and the other three so he wouldn't have taken the decision to tell them lightly. Probably would have been a contract they had to sign and I doubt anybody would be stupid enough to risk a high-up, powerful job within the BBC's arguably most popular show.

To sum the "leak" up (and excuse my French): A load of bullshit.

Oh definitely, I posted that before I read the twitter rumours. No one would be impacted by it if it was Les. If this was Hollyoaks then I'd say it was him. I'm very interested into knowing what part he played in this Charlie/Nick scenario, most likely needed money to set up again Walford?

Also the twitter account just looks like one big troll to me.

I do hate twitter sometimes.

Agree with Leon.

DTC wouldn't leak it so that would leave 3 people. It wouldn't be hard to suss out who leaked it and no ones that stupid to risk their job over this.

Some account just wants some more followers.

But if its a serial killer and other residents die that surely will change the square forever?

I read the twitter 'spoiler'.
I really hope it isn't true for two reasons; I personally don't like the idea. I think it seems to lack realism and impact.
Mainly though, I hope it isn't true as I wouldn't want it ruined for DTC and his trusted four after they've gone to such lengths to craft what is so far an incredible story kept under lock and key.

The 'Coker' clue could be a red herring, or a genuine clue though. It does make sense, and I called it hours before the tweet if so!!
The way Pam was with Alfie, and we already know Les has had fake business from Dot...something sinister about this couple for sure.

I was going to avoid it but after hearing how ridiculous it all sounded, I couldn't resist. There is absolutely no way this can be true and I think it's insane that somebody can go on Twitter claiming to have received an email from a 'friend' which reveals the outcome of the storyline.

Even forgetting how ridiculous the storyline sounds, we know for a fact that very few people know the full details of this story. So why would a BBC employee (presumably a high up one if they're one of the few to know the full storyline) jeopardise their job to email a friend the entire storyline? They'd at least leak it to a newspaper and try and get some money from it, I'd imagine - not a random friend who can spill it over Twitter.

Linking to that, the Twitter poster says they want to keep the person who leaked it anonymous, but it wouldn't take DTC very long to work out who it was, given that less than half a dozen people would have access to such information. So, if it were true, this Twitter poster can't really value his friendship with the person who leaked it, given that they'd lose their job and may face disciplinary action over leaking it. Good job that this 'friend' is imaginary then...

Then there's the storyline itself which goes against everything DTC has said previously. Although there's going to be twists and turns, he said he wants the storyline to be rooted in truth, and that the killer shouldn't be a huge shock. Making a character who neither Lucy nor the Beales have properly interacted with the killer would be ludicrous.

And it's just nonsensical anyway - so Les Coker wants to drum up business for his funeral parlour and this 'leak' states he could have killed up to 7 people in the past. If that were the case, he'd have been out of business months ago. In what way does bumping off the odd person here and there in anyway drum up business? He'd have to be massacring them by the dozen to even get any proper return. Apart from anything, it just doesn't make good business sense.

I'm fairly sure DTC isn't batting an eyelid and it astounds me that this joker is getting their 15 minutes of fame for this inept piece of fan fiction.

The publicity trailer pic which came before this whole thing was written. I imagine this 'leaked' storyline has been written to fit the clues, rather than the other way round.

There's also the fact that the person claims that this has all come from a source close to the writers, even though we've already been told that none of the writers actually know who the culprit is yet. It's just DTC and presumably Alex Lamb, Alison Davis and Sharon Batten who know for now.

Its obviously a load of rubbish. Only four people in the whole crew know.

I'm now convinced its Lee. I read an interesting theory about how in all murder dramas they usually have the killer play no major part in the aftermarth. Lee and Cindy have both left Walford. Both however will be back. Mimi Keene will be 15 when this story reaches its climax so will be on limited working hours. This I think rules her out. Lee however it doesn't.

DTC said he wanted the story to be rooted in truth and make sense to the viewers. Lee is suffering PTS. This has been subtly hinted at but not too much focus has been given to it as of yet.

Remember the press release about the killer might not being aware they murdered Lucy? if Lee was in a PTS episode then its perfectly plausible he didn't realise what he was doing and that it will come back to him in a flashback much later.........

While not a suspect Lee is the first Walford resident outside of the family to have his DNA taken. The hidden in plain sight rule comes in again. Linda's 'I know all my kids' line is also another giveaway.
