Pretty sure Mels on the run isn't she?
So was Stacey, Den, Phil and Samantha ;)

I think Keeble and her superiors have noted Peter's behaviour and have sent Bryant in as surveillance on Peter.

Nah, she's a DCI now. More than her jobs worth.
Tamzin Outwaite is linked to the anniversary plot...
Really? I see no reason why Melanie would even want to come back to Albert Sq.

Why is Mel on the run? I thought she chose to go after deciding not to abort Steve's baby, and got Dr Trueman to pick a number for her so she then got on that flight.

Steve signed the E20 club over to Mel as a 'gift' but he was laundering money and getting Mel to sign things that she never actually read, so after Steve died she was questioned by police over the matter, and as her signatures were all over the paperwork she was in s--t street. Sorry to be picky but it wasn't DR Trueman who gave her a random number it was someone from the abortion clinic when she cancelled her termination.

Cindy did it! Seriously though, what a waste it was killing her off.

I am wondering if Abi did it and Jay/Ben covered it up? I am just wondering how they got her phone/purse do we know the reason behind that yet?

But would be funny if it was the Cokers and that twitter all disregarded was right all along.

I'm not sure I necessarily subscribe to the theory that the murderer was in tonight's episode but Peter has to be the next line of enquiry.

If anything, he and Ian should have been the police's first port of call before any of the stuff with Jake. We need to establish where he was, who he saw and what he was doing on the night Lucy was murdered.

I'm not sure he killed her but he should be a strong suspect with the police. He had an argument with her and then disappeared until the next morning.
Yep, Peter and Ian would have been the first people to be eliminated from the enquiry. The police go on the assumption that many murder victims know the person who killed them and ofttimes, the perpetrator is someone close.

Plenty of questions were asked about Ian's whereabouts that night, but more should have been made of the fact that he and Lucy quarrelled. That would have opened up questions to be asked of Lucy's friends etc re her relationship with her father, and the part about Peter overhearing the argument and dashing off in the middle of it would have alerted the police to him as well. To date, his whereabouts have never been established.

She was living in Portugal, under the name of Melanie BEALE. Steve's son would be about 12 now.

I'm agreeing with the others who reckon that the killer was one of them in the room when the revelation about Emma/Max came out.

Has it occurred to anyone that Emma could in fact be double crossing Max now? Maybe Keeble has told her that she is in with a chance of keeping her job if can dupe Max into thinking she's madly in love with him - and Cameron is in on it all too.

It's elaborate, but an interesting thought.

Yeah, Abi did. Max asked her on the day of Lucy's funeral if she had sent it and she confirmed that she did.

Also, have the police ever followed up Lucy's cocaine habit and who may have been her dealer?

Summerhayes wouldn't have the nous or the common sense to do that. It's been obvious for sometime that Keeble thinks she's one braincell short of two. Nope, she's Max's latest vulnerable woman he inadvertantly destroys.

The police have never followed up Lucy's cocaine addiction and any relation which drugs bore to her getting killed. They have never pursued Peter Beale's whereabouts that night, and they have never looked closely at Lee Carter's behaviour. Lee has a way of getting very close to young women, intimately, in a very short time, then moving onto yet another one without giving a thought to the previous one.

I know a lot of young men are players, but Lee spent two of Lucy's last three days alive with her, sleeping with her. In between that association, when she binned him the first time, he moved effortlessly into snogging Whitney. He seemed genuinely interested in Lucy, but wasn't as horrified at her sudden demise, and when he returned to Walford, once again, he recommenced his pursuit of Whitney, relentlessly, even confiding to her that he wanted to marry young and have children.

Since then, he's been rather lackadaisical in his relationship with her, almost treating it casually. When Elaine asked if she were going to meet Whitney, Lee shrugged it off. Recently, it's been Whitney who's pursued him. He didn't even think to ask her to Nancy's party - Nancy did. The one thing that Lee remembered about the night Lucy was killed was Lucy quarrelling ... with someone else. Lee didn't even make his presence known to her, after witnessing her argue with Billy, even though she seemed upset.

Then, there are the odd, throwaway remarks about Lee - about not trusting him with a gun, about being a psycho in the army.

In real time, there would have been three people the police would have relentlessly questioned initially, if only to remove them from the enquiry as suspects - Ian, Peter and Lee Carter.

I like that the police are real characters with their own storylines but their incompetence in this case has been staggering. Ian, Peter, Lee and Max would be the top four and nothing has happened plus the revelation that Lucy had a cocaine habit is a massive one. The police would definitely want to find out who had been supplying it to her. It seems like they have done absolutely no investigating since Jake's release.

I think there's been a little too much focus on Emma's life at the expense of the investigation.

I would surmise that it probably is Cameron doing the stalking but I strongly suspect that Lauren is his target due to her association with Max and not Peter which puts everyone back to square one.

We also know that it may not have been the killer who made Lucy's death look like a mugging as we know that somehow her purse and phone came into Ben's possession that night. We don't know how, why or whether it was before or after her death. This needs to be the next thing to come out.

Very disappointing from an investigative perspective. Once they had dismissed a random mugging or sexual assault, the family situation Lucy was in would have come first then the drug situation. Two massive leads there.

Hopefully and then someone will dispose of her, it'll be her own fault if it happens. She's such a useless character.

Is it just me or did Abi look mega relieved after Emma said she would probably be taken off Lucy's case? :unsure:

I'm now wondering if she's being used by the police to try and trap one of the Brannings?[edit_reason]added more [/edit_reason]
