EastEnders to film 15 endings?

Jake Wood has also hinted that the killer won't know until the night. What an awful decision. Just look at the damage done by the live episode where we had 6 weeks of no aftermath. |

Yeah i saw this interview. He never said anything about the killer not knowing till the night, because it's always been ruled out by the EP there will not be a live episode and Jake predicted the killer will likely know a few days or weeks beforehand. To be fair, the interviewers were expecting Jake to spill all the goss but he knows as little as us viewers do. Only four people know the killer. They were expecting him to have all the answers.
Such a lovely polite sweet guy in real life. Never seen him in an interview. |

I watched the interview and Jake said that they would probably find out around Christmas time. Given that Jake isn't one of the "four" people who knows the outcome, it may as well have been one of us that they were interviewing, as he knows just as much as us.
He said that they would traditionally be filming the reveal at christmas time, and that there could be up to 15 endings, then the person who did it might not know until the transmission. All speculation, nothing to get hot under the collar about

Hmm, I had kind of hoped that the reveal to the audience would have been around Christmas time, then the reveal to the characters would have been for the anniversary..

Excuse my ignorance, but how does that work regarding the storyline in the immediate aftermath of the reveal? If EE film weeks/months in advance, then surely the very next (non-live) episode should deal with the fallout from the live reveal - but how can it if it has just been decided?

After the Archie reveal, one episode (which ended up being the Max/Stacey two-hander) was left untouched so it could be filmed after the reveal.

That means, they narrowed it's down to 15 people, so there are 15 suspects
I still think it's Abi |

Filming lots of different endings is a waste of money IMO. They should have decided who it was before she was murdered and there has to be a plausible motive otherwise this story will just turn into a nonsense.
In a way I would rather see a character trying to cover up what they have done and seeing their guilt/remorse etc. It just makes for better drama. If we see a character acting relatively normally for months and then it turns out to be them its a bit of a cop out. |

I still think it's Abi a) It's not the case of the separate and indirect actions of a number of people led to her death b) Note the use of weasel words - there could be, up to and might not know so there is plenty of room for manoeuvre c) There could be an element of misdirection here - maybe 15 endings won't be filmed, but that's the story put about in order to throw everyone off the scent. Or maybe there will be up to 15 scenes filmed, but most if not all of those scenes will be used in the denouement (especially likely if it turns out that a number of people contributed to the circumstances that led to her death - see (a) above). There have been claims of multiple endings being filmed for other dramas, and one of the main points raised against this is the additional cost in terms of budget and actual filming time - just think, 15 scenes filmed, only to discard 14 of them. I cannot think of a better way to throw money away, never mind fill up an already tight filming schedule. And whenever I have seen a claim that multiple endings have been filmed, I cannot recall ever seeing any evidence later on that those multiple endings ever existed. |

Jake Wood seems to as well.
![]() I think our 15 suspects could be: Ian Jane Peter Denise Cindy Lauren Abi Max Whitney Lee Ronnie Charlie Jay? Lola? Johnny? So the likely suspects would be at the moment Ian - Annoyed him over the coke Max - Annoyed she slept with Lee Whitney - Annoyed she slept with Lee Abi or Lauren - Secretly knew she was having it off with their dad Cindy - Never got on with Lucy and her uncovering the drugs in her bedroom showed she was eager for Lucy to be knocked down Danny - Humiliated and had his money stolen from her Peter - Jealous for being the most successful child So other than that, i see no other people and motives on why Lucy would be killed by anyone else. |

I might be being thick, but I can't see how that works. Surely the person(s) of the 15 will know whether they'll be the cause of her death as they'll have had to have filmed aftermath? Guilt, consequences, and what not.

I put on another post a while ago I am sure that no one knows yet the killer and that all her secrates that are coming out now are to test the strengths of the new/new ish characters as most of the suspects are pretty new and not had a big story.. peter.. lee... Alex... jake... etc I think the writers want to see how they interact and how they deal with the bigget stories before they decide... they don't want to decide and discover when it's to late that the actor eg (not a personal opinion but an example) lee can't take the pace and can't act the drama and emotion needed

They handled the reveal quite well in 2010, and filmed out of sequence so we could see the story get picked up in a more recently filmed episode

If they are going to film fifteen it doesn't mean their will be fifteen suspects. They could different ways for different people totalling it up to 15
