I'd stake my pension (for what it is worth these days) on it not being Ben but a case of mistaken identity given the family don't get to see him until after death.

One guess as to who it will be, rather than Ben?

Ben's part of the next generation so he will never be killed.

It's confirmed that Ian and Poil are told it is Ben. That's not the same thing.

Hospitals can identify Patients incorrectly if they are going by ID found on them with no photo such as bank cards.

Casualty did that story line a couple of weeks ago

*cough Lucy Beale *cough

Having said that It's obviously going to be Paul that dies and not Ben.

I don't! I want it to be Jay and Paul leaves for some contrived reason but comes back later this year under SOC.

Btw, did DTC axe Paul or was it SOC?

I don't think he was axed, i think the actor chose to leave as he got another job.

Is it Paul who dies? Maybe with Ben's I'd. We all know Paul's leaving.

so why kill Lucy - surely she was as big a part of the "next generation" as Ben

never say never!

I think they decided the storyline which would surround Lucy's death was so big, dominating the show for over a year, that it was deemed worth it. Also, she wasn't an only child, her legacy could continue via Peter and to a lesser extent Steven, Bobby and Cindy Jnr.

I think Ben is too important as the link between the Mitchell's and the Beales and Phil's only son.

I'm not really a fan of Bens, but they killed Jamie and Danielle at a young age and I wouldn't want them to do that with another Mitchell,

I think it's a shame that Ian didn't adopt Cindy, it would have been interesting seeing him raise another of Cindys daughters. So much emotional scope between those two I think.

As the son of Phil and Kathy and half-brother of Ian Ben's closely related to the shows three biggest characters and the link between the Beale's and the Mitchells, they would be mad to kill him off. I'm guessing its a case of mistaken identity and Paul is the victim and wrongly identified as Ben.

I really liked Ian's relationship with Cindy and it's a shame they blitzed it when Mimi chose to leave, making it another casualty of the Bobby storyline.

They were developing a close bond, I really hope she returns soon what with Steven around. Ian being closer to the children he didn't father with Cindy than those he did would be quite poetic.
