EastEnders fans convinced Bex Fowler will die in boat disaster after taking drugs

EastEnders viewers believe the latest episode of the BBC soap has massively hinted at a shock death next week, as the soap celebrates its 35th anniversary.

One character is being killed off, as several residents fight for their lives in a boat disaster on the River Thames.

From the Mitchells' final showdown with Keanu Taylor, to Mick and Linda Carter's ongoing family drama, there's plenty of plots tying together in one big week.

But Friday's episode hinted at another big moment that could hint at who dies on the boat.

On Thursday fans were concerned for teen Bex Fowler, as she accepted mystery pills from her pal Dotty Cotton.

In the latest visit to Walford, Bex begged her friend for more drugs, admitting she was keen to take them to the boat party.

She confessed she wasn't put off from taking them, and wanted the same buzz for the Walford party.

With the character soon leaving the soap and definitely caught up in the chaos on the water, fans now have worrying suspicions.

Many are convinced Bex will be killed off on the boat after taking the drugs, potentially drowning.

Then there was the fact that Ben Mitchell promised to harm her and her father Martin Fowler, if anything bad happened to his boyfriend Callum Highway.

He blames Martin for Callum being kidnapped by enemy Keanu, because Martin was supposed to kill Keanu on Christmas Day.

Instead he faked his murder and let him flee, with the Mitchells believing all this time that he was dead after his affair with Phil's wife Sharon.

But he's back now and wants revenge on Ben, kidnapping the love of his life and demanding £100,000 for his freedom.

With Callum's fate yet to be confirmed, will Keanu hurt him and could this lead to Ben having Bex killed?

Taking to Twitter with their fears for Bex, and their theories, one fan said: "watch Bex take drugs on the boat party & then drowns."

Another tweeted: "Wonder if that's how Bex leaves she takes a overdose."

A third commented: "So Bex DOES get on the boat with drugs. Remember what happened the last time drugs and water merged?"

Meanwhile, a fourth added: "something is gonna happen to bex i can just feel it."

EastEnders airs Mondays and Fridays at 8pm, and Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One.
