Which would be too boring and obvious, the character will have to leave as ian wont let them get away with it

There's no guarantee Ian will find out though. The viewers might be the only ones in on the secret.

Also, Peter is very high on the suspect list and I doubt that Ian would tell the police if he found out that Peter killed Lucy. The same may go for several others close to Ian, especially if they can give Ian a satisfactory explanation of what happened that night.

Whitney hated Lucy and I think she's capable of hiding it if she's the killer, rather than spend 15 years in jail. I'd say the same for some others too.

I don't think anything's set in stone and Dominic Treadwell-Collins may well have been leaving false trails for us in his interviews.

You may well be right about them being too obvious but I was just responding to your statement that "none of the characters strike me as that evil., none of them hated lucy enough to hide it from ian and make his life hell, who on the show would do that if they knew they killed her.." and answering your question that there are several who would do that.

Yeah i know, i just dont think any of them are evil enough besides ben and nick who i dont think killed her, i think ben moved her and stole her purse/phone

Whitney isnt evil enough to just not care, if she knew she couldve left with bianca.

She isn't evil, true, but she might be very scared at the thought of prison, especially given her history of being a victim of abuse. I'm not saying I think Whitney's the killer, just that I'm not ruling anyone out.

Well Ian's track record on his quest for justice for Lucy isn't so good so far, lied to the police giving a false alibi for the night of the murder, and now willing to withhold evidence which might be important to the enquiry. Ian doesn't know otherwise or does he ? Also it may only be the viewers who get to know who the killer is next Feb ,EE quite capable of continuing to draw out the storyline for further months imo.

Sorry Dazzle, only just seen ,I've duplicated some of the points' you've already made.

Great minds...

About this issue of looking guilty. To use Whitney as an example again, she looked very shifty and guilty for a few episodes when the focus was on her around the time Tamwar found her note, but has since been acting as normal.

However, we had absolutely no indication from Stacey's behaviour that she was guilty of Archie's murder, so I don't think we can conclude that lack of guilt in everyday episodes signifies innocence in Eastenders.

Thats cos archie raped her, she had no reason to feel guilty
