Bookmakers also have an open betting market over which character will be the one murdered in the Christmas storyline with the odds putting Theo Hawthorne as the favourite.

Former Eastenders star Danny Dyer 6/1 to enter the I'm A Celebrity jungle this year
Former Eastenders actor Danny Dyer is now down to just 6/1 to appear on this year's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! with the series on the way in the next few months.
Dyer left Eastenders last Christmas in a massive storyline where his character Mike Carter was killed off dramatically.
Fast forward a year on and we may see the popular star head into the jungle this year with his odds now shortening from 22/1 to just 6/1.
