It's all very confusing.

The Dean theory is, indeed, a very long shot. Why should Dean resent Lucy for his imprisonment? Lucy had absolutely nothing to do with Dean's imprisonment. She kept quiet about Craig's mugging of Patrick, so Sean Slater going to prison would have kept her tangential involvement in that quiet.

Dean obviously has blame issues with his imprisonment, but using this as a reason for him to have killed Lucy. I doubt he even realised she was peripherally involved. It's wrong of him to blame Shirley for what happened, but if he seriously had a bone to pick about what happened, he should be on the next plane to Spain to confront Chelsea, because it was she who convinced him to lie.

Dean is darker and angrier than he was first time around, but that anger is directed at Shirley and at no one else.

Liking everyone's theories. I think it's Denise but maybe it was an accident.

Maybe Les is the drug dealer who gave the drugs to Lucy. Maybe that's what Charlie was giving Les the money for and the fact that Nick had died was totally unrelated. Maybe Nick actually had died, but his death is a red herring to make us think that Charlie was paying Les to pretend the body was Nick rather than actually the fact Charlie was buying drugs. Charlie could be a dealer and Les could be the supplier or something, anyway Les could have been owed money for drugs by Lucy. I mean Les death doesn't phase Les as we know he's an undertaker, I'm sure he could hide his guilt really easily if he did do it. I mean we know something dodgy is going on with Charlie with his "mum" involved as well, this may be to do with drugs rather than Nick. Just thinking aloud hear so half of that probably doesn't make sense and I haven't thought it through properly yet, but it could be another theory.

I kind of thought Lee looked a bit shifty when it was suggested Lucy was taking money from the till for drugs. Or was that just me?

Me too. He's possibly hiding more than he's letting on I think. The drug dealer would probably look more plausible than Billy as a suspect, so if the investigation goes down that route, all the better for him.

One question:

How does Phil know Lucy was using cocaine before she died? He mentioned it last night.

It ended up in the paper didn't it? I'm pretty sure it's just common knowledge around the square.

The only thing about the Dean theory, which I personally would enjoy, it focuses a lot on a story from around 7 years previous, and involved a lot of characters that aren't around now. I think a lot of viewers wouldn't get it.
But then Marcus Christie's return is an even bigger leap...

It's not a bigger leap at all. Marcus isn't exactly back to be the main player in the show's biggest storyline in years. It's easy to say "Phil and Marcus has history", but I struggle to see them explaining Dean murdering Lucy that easily.
"I loved it in the Olden Days because you talked more. There’s more action now. You know, we would do scenes in the Rovers of me, Bet and Doris Speed with a cup of coffee each before we opened the pub, talking about absolute rubbish. But it was something, and it was what people do." - Betty Driver

With the creep way Dean's story is heading at the moment, it wouldn't need that much explaining. Chelsea could turn up and that history could be dragged up before the murder reveal, just reminding the audience of the history. Remember we have Ian and Denise as a couple, Chelsea is Denise's daughter. It could make it quite messy.

It's an interesting theory.

Marcus conned the Mitchells three years before Patrick's attack and hasn't been mentioned since, Patrick's attack has been referenced a few times this year at least.

I did say it was a theory I really liked, I just don't see it being something they would do.

I just don't think it can be completely out-ruled especially with how involved the Carters have become in this story.

I really think Dean is the killer, and I think Chelsea will be the curveball in the story they referenced later this year.

Ian, Jane, Denise, Patrick, Dean and Chelsea, all significant players in that story. Peter to a degree. Then we've got Dot, Phil, Billy, Big Mo, Stacey, Max, Lauren, Abi, Shirley and Jay who were all around at that time. The nu Carter's will also link into the story too.

I expect we might also see Carly make a brief return similar to Libby. It's as if they're trying to remind us of the setup back then, particularly with Patricks story and attack being referenced.

I wonder if Yolande will make an appearance in Patricks upcoming story, she's been mentioned lately by Dean and Patrick.

Oh, I hope so. Yolande was a wonderful character.
Massive thanks to NickM for this wonderful signature! :)

Oh Gosh I hated Yolande. She really dragged Patrick down to me.

Fun loving, friendly, caring, supportive but moral original version Yolande - Great character.

Miserable, bitter, shrew of a character that became of Yolande - Awful character.

It would be nice to see her again after all this time but the actress had a few choice words about race, EastEnders and the BBC after leaving which could go against that.

Admittedly the Yolande that left EE was a terrible character, but the REAL Yolande was amazing! :D
