EastEnders executive producer Chris Clenshaw has advised fans to rewatch Monday's flashforward scene to find more clues.
The soap broke new ground at the end of the episode as the action jumped forward to Christmas 2023 with a short scene in the Vic featuring six women of Walford - Linda (Kellie Bright), Sharon (Letitia Dean), Denise (Diane Parish), Kathy (Gillian Taylforth), Stacey (Lacey Turner) and Suki (Balvinder Sopal).
The women were seen looking on in shock as they gathered around a body, and after checking for signs of life, Sharon told them: "He's dead."
The scene set up a year-long storyline which will keep viewers guessing over who was killed and the identity of the murderer, or murderers.
"I'm not going to give anything away that the episode hasn't already given, but what I will say is there were clues in there. Did you look closely?" said Clenshaw.
"I urge everyone to rewatch the scene and look at every detail. There's also a few treats in the scene if you look hard enough.
"What I'd also say is that a lot can happen in Walford between February and December - circumstances can change, relationships can change, loyalties can change - so what you may suspect now could be somewhat different as we make our way through 2023 and head towards Christmas."
EastEnders continues Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on BBC One and from 6am on BBC iPlayer.
