Who Killed Lucy?; All the theories

Surely the biggest clue tonight was Emma's use of the M word. How many of those suspects would kill Lucy in cold blood?

I don't see why they felt the need to include the Cokers.
It was a little odd. It makes you wonder if they are playing to fan speculation a bit though. They made a point of exonerating Aleks, Charlie, Nick, Billy and Lola as well - all of whom have had speculation surrounding them over the last nine months.

And of course Les mentioned Good Friday a few weeks ago. Perhaps that's the sole reason that they're still included.

Interestingly enough, if it was Cindy/Jane/Ian the beales would also be decimated with peter leaving.

The brannings would be too with Lauren leaving. (unless of course it's peter or Lauren)

Denise could be a big.possibility as Kim has come back to be with Patrick. Lee would lose a carter. Whitney wouldnt do much as carol has Sonia and liam

I think the Cokers are the obvious red herrings of the story as Emma knows about the nature of Laurie Coker's death and they've set them up as a unit with Billy, Lola and soon enough Paul's going to turn up and they're too new to have a impact anyway.

I think Max and possibly Jay are covering for Abi, but unbeknown to all of them, Whitney struck the final blow.
Please stop with the endless layers of possibility and intrigue its putting my head in a massive spin! :P :D

If it's the Cokers I'll be very, very annoyed. Surely it can't be.

I still think there's more to Ben and Jay hiding Lucy's things at the allotments.

Right now I'm thinking it's Denise. Or possibly Whitney.

I don't think it's Ian, Les, Pam, Jay or Ben. I've got no idea out of the others any more.

Whoever it is, please don't let it be Abi. It will be a massive cop-out. This girl was scared to bury her dead pet gerbils but you expect us to believe she's a murderer? Pull the other one. I know it's a little late in the game but if you are reading this Mr Treadwell-Collins...absolutely NOT Abi.

It's can't be the Cokers and if it is, you won't hear me defending the show.

I hope it's not a case of too many cooks spoiling the broth in the sense that there aren't too many people involved which would just make it stupid. I don't want any X is covering for Y and Z is covering for X while A and B moved the body to cover for Z otherwise it just gets a bit silly.

Walford is about to change, lives are about to be destroyed, alliances will begin and the residents will never be the same again. Welcome to "Dungeon". New fan fic, coming soon...

Thanks Nick M for the brilliant sig!

I can't shake the feeling Abi is involved. Either covering or guilty. She's always in the background there. Just out of focus.

Pam and Les first arrived in Walford just over four days before Lucy died and she had no interactions with them. It can't be them, it just can't be them.

The fact she said "it's still murder" suggests to me that they tried to defend themselves a bit by saying it was an accident. If they meant to hit her over the head wouldn't it still be classed as murder even if they didn't intend to kill her?

If they didn't intend to kill her wouldn't that mean manslaughter? Then again I doubt she would be that specific.

When Max and Abi were first questioned by police doing a house-to-house, their story was that both of them were in all night. Then Max was the first one to name a suspect to the police - Jake Stone. He told police that he saw Jake with Lucy the night she was killed. He wasn't lying. He saw them when he went to take the dog out. When the police questioned his original statement, Max said that he was in all night, except for five minutes when he took the dog out.

The taxi driver whom Lauren traced backed Jake's story about taking him and Lucy back to Walford. Jake was so drunk, he fell out of the cab, and Lucy was begging the driver to help her take Jake into his flat. The taxi driver was about to say something happened next, but Peter chased him away.

Max looks suspicious based on that.

But then, the entire Beale dynamic looks suspicious, especially the way Ian and Peter were content to let Jake rot in prison rather than accept the belief that he was innocent, and Jane hiding valuable evidence.

Cindy Williams has no alibi. She was allegedly at home all night, but Ian was with Rainie, Peter had ran off and Jane was at the Masood's. So we know Cindy went to Beale's to see if Ian was there and he wasn't. So was she at home all night?

Cindy is easy to dispose of, but would be quite tragic. A girl killing her sister. The Beales would be in pieces, but she leaves a baby (conveniently for Jane and Ian). Heartbreaking. Makes sense.

I don't know. I. Don't. Know. And I don't like it.

Jane was the only one who had any kind of privacy when she used her phone.

Abi, Max, Jane, Cindy.

That's my short list of who did it/knows.

Hopefully it won't be Cindy. The actress has bags of potential and could be interesting to watch in the coming year.

One thing we should bear in mind is that just because we find out who killed Lucy doesn't mean that they will be caught/arrested for it. There could be more twists/turns after the reveal.

Something to bear in mind perhaps. But hey, we're all EE nuts here. I'm sure we were away.

Somewhere along the line, it may have been the taxi driver, didnt he say that there was someone else nearby? Someone Lucy knew, but they didnt want to be seen? that was when Peter intervened.

Would Peter protect Abi? I dont think so. He would Lauren, they have always been loves young dream.

Someone made a comment a few posts back, about how Abi couldnt kill anything, couldnt even bury her guinea pig things. But somewhere along the line, Abi has gotten a lot harder. As someone else has said, she is always lurking in the background. When Emma was talking to Lauren about how she had taken her laptop and there was stuff on it, Abi was evesdropping.

there was more deleted than just the stuff Whitney had done.

it all looks like Abi, but ala Broadchurch, is it too soon to be pointing the finger to definitely?
Just livin' in perfect New Zealand!
