I cant think of a more satisfying outcome than Bobby, in terms of the potential for a brilliant and indepth after-math.
If it had been Abi, or anyone outside the family, it would feel like a cop out, and pretty predictable... If it was her family, it would feel ridiculous and the after-math would be short-lived
Edit:
What would Cindy being the killer achieve, the family barely love her, and she would go jail -- The End.
Why would Jane kill lucy and then hide it (out of character) --- Goes Jail, the end.

Anyone would have been better than Bobby.
Even Den Watts, back from the dead again, holding a bloody candlestick and saying "She looked at my Princess the wrong way" would have been better.
Why? You did not really give a reasonable explanation.
When I think about it, Jane wouldn't have quite fit with what happened. But she would've made enough sense.
I'd say Peter or Cindy- but Peter loved Lucy too much to ever hurt her, and Jane wouldn't have gone to such extremes for anyone except her children imo. So the Bobby ending does make sense and it was obviously well-plotted, but I'm just a bit disappointed. I hope tomorrow's fall-out will make me feel better about it. It just feels a bit daft at the moment.
Because we're meant to believe that a ten year-old kid confronted his older (and much taller) sister, smashed her (presumably once) with enough force to kill her?! And quick enough for her not to defend herself?
This being the same kid who has barely been in the show for the last ten months which, in a way, has cheated some viewers.
It breaks the boundaries of credibility in terms of a storyline. How are we meant to take anything seriously after that?
Cindy, Ben would have been slightly better.
Any other proper suspect would have been much better.
I actually think Ian should have never been a suspect.
I also thought that it was never Ian or Peter due to their reactions at Lucy's death.
I would have hated it to be Jane because from the moment this all happened she has been the most obvious one, it would have been boring.
It actually being Bobby is a bit of a let down really. He is barely in it and when he is he doesn't say much at all. After 10 months i was hoping it would be a character we actually knew more about. What have we really seen of Bobby's character in the last 10 months or ever ? nothing really, we know very little about him at all, just the obvious stuff. He's not like other young actors that have loads of lines and play a key role in story lines. He is nothing, and making him the murderer is just poor in my opinion.
There are ways they could have surprised us without it being stupid.
His blow was not the only thing that killed her, it was all the other blows she had to the head, and lets not forgot her collapsing in the car lot. He just happened to deliver the final blow, and if you believe children cannot do this, then you're naive. Children are arguably more aggressive then adults in confrontation.

whitney, peter, denise, abi (to name a few) had a much much believeable motive than bobby!
The Cokers or Lee would've been the definition of cop-out IMO.
But i think having Bobby as the murderer is going to be... more shocking and also very heartbreaking
Whitney would have been boring, and the after math would be short lived. Peter would be strange for someone who loved her sister so much and then dump her body in the woods. Abi would be predictable and short lived.
Bobby did not intend to kill her, but simply got into a sibling fight which resulted in a finishing blow after Lucy received many other blows.
Whitney would have been the worst, and least shocking since she hated Lucy and her involvement is minimal. Then once she was revealed, beales would call the police, she would go jail --- The End.
