EastEnders has dropped another big possible clue pointing towards the Christmas death as Linda Carter confronts Dean Wicks.

Viewers are gearing up to finally learn the identity of the mystery man found dead in this year's big flashforward scene, with one of the potential names being Dean.

Now the soap has hinted as much in scenes that aired in last night's (December 12) episode, which saw Linda threaten to kill him if he goes near her children again.

"Keep your disgusting hands off my son!" she tells Dean in front of others. "What did you say to him? You've got no right to be anywhere near him."

Dean is then asked by his daughter Jade why Linda is angry, before Keanu declares: "Because you’re a sexual predator mate."

After Linda agrees, she adds: "I don’t want him anywhere near my son. I'm sorry you had to hear that."

After Jade appears confused, Dean shouts at Linda: "Don’t say another word to my daughter."

"You keep away from my children!" Linda hits back. "You go near them again and I'll kill you."

Could this hint at some dramatic scenes to come?

Dean actor Matt Di Angelo recently addressed theories that his character could be the mystery man who dies this Christmas.

"If anyone deserves to wear the cufflinks, it's Dean, but I think the more people that have those cufflinks in the lead up to Christmas, the better..." he said.

"Dean is very much back in the Square now trying to make his business work and take care of his sick daughter," Matt added. "He's trying his hardest to integrate into the community and make his business work."

EastEnders airs on Mondays - Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer, where most episodes drop early at 6am ahead of their TV broadcast.
