Ian/Peter are Lucy's killer you can bank on that! I just have this gut feeling its one or both of them DTC is gonna shock us and they are the killers. Remember DTC said in that interview recently when planning the killer with his team that it would make sense to the viewers. Next year in February I will bump this thread and be proved right

Plus she was his golden child aka Cindy clone, he's grass Peter up imo.
Will you bump the other 1679 threads that have been saying the exact same thing since the storyline was announced in 2013?
To be honest I think the least shocking reveal would be Ian or Peter as they've been bandied about as suspects possibly the most of anyone.
Totally agree everything adds up there
I think Peter may have been the original choice but I'm not sure they'd go there. His desperation for the truth etc...would make things so planned and premeditated, it just doesn't feel right. The only way it would make sense is if Lucy was alive and talking when he left her, then collapsed and his desperation more hope it wasn't him.
For it to be emotional, it does need to be someone close to the family. And I'm going to point blank rule out Lauren as she'd be back on the booze if her and wouldn't be so desperate for the killer to be found. so to fit with emotional, you have Peter, Denise, Jane, Cindy, Ben. Anyone else? But again, who is capable of covering up, has form/ off screen or such a mess grief could hide it?
Very long running character and ties to the Beales,
I'd also be surprised if it's Peter now, as it turns too dark if he's been acting so desperate for the truth etc. Makes it too planned.
UNLESS it is a combination of people or isn't actually murder and more of an accident. Peter might have set of a chain of events that led to her death.
That's the theory I've been going on. He's initial desperation to find out who was the last person to see her was to make sure someone else saw her after he did, to put his own mind at rest.
Lucy wasn't an especially well liked girl but I don't think, short of an 11th hour reveal of her being involved in drug dealing with, for instance, Ronnie or Nick Cotton, it would be particularly truthful for anyone other than those she clashed with on the night she died and who were close to her to be the killer. It may be a combination of 2 characters. Jane could have covered up for Peter or Cindy, for instance, in an effort to spare Ian knowing the truth about how Lucy died.
I cannot see anyone sympathising with Whitney if she killed Lucy out of jealousy. That's the shallowest reason I can think of and it will not pull at the heart strings. Lauren and Abi are too thick to perform a murder and then cover it up. They'd fall apart in seconds. I'm putting my money on one of the Beales or a combination of two of them.
One character who is VERY conspicuous by their absence in all of this is Lucy's brother, Steven. I really do not want him to turn up towards the climax of the story and be revealed as the killer. That would be a cheat. I feel the same way about Nick Cotton and Ben.
I think Nick will be arrested for it. It will later be revealed that Peter dealt the fatal blow. Max involved in the initial head injury. Who took her bag etc not sure. I think the key here is going to be that Dot says let Nick go down for it. He is serving the sentence for murder of Reg Cox which he has got away with for last 30 years. Dot being great grandmother to Ronnie child has to play a part. She is involved in the drugs.
BIB sorry, is this a typo
This is exactly what I have always thought.
Peter was desperate to find the killer, he even got beat up because he wouldn't let it drop and his over the top scream when he found out Lucy had died was only in front of Ian so it really can't have been for show.
Ian's grief has been real, no-one can deny that. It would make no sense for him to be the killer.
I do think it was someone close to Lucy though my betting is on Jane, Denise, Cindy or Ben.
These characters have not had many scenes (or in Ben's case any at all) about their grief or feelings about Lucy so it could easily be one of them and yes I fully believe that DTC could bring out a last minute twist and it'll be someone totally random that no-ones even thought about (i.e Jay on the bus).
We don't know what the story is yet and we've got more than 4 months before we find out. There's going to be plenty more twists to come I'm sure of it.
I think we can safely rule out all the characters who were suspects when Lucy first died (Lauren, Max, Ian, Whitney and Peter)
I dont believe that Ians grief is anything but real, there is no way that he killed his own daughter, I dont think Peter did either
Sorry, I have to be one of the few to disagree with you on this
When the killer (s) is (are) revealed it will be a shock but I dont think it will be Ian or Peter
And the killer is due to kill again, so its between those two.
Has it actually been confirmed that Lucy's killer will kill again? Phil turned out to be responsible for the attack on Sharon and Alfie was responsible for the fire so those two can be ruled out. Unless it's Nick, I don't see Lucy's killer striking again and I think Lucy's death is more accident/manslaughter than actual murder (unless of course it's Nick). I'm unsure whether Ben would do something so stupid after just coming out of prison.
