EastEnders fans convinced Fatboy’s return is ‘sealed’ after easy-to-miss clue
EASTENDERS fans are convinced Fatboy's return to the soap is 'sealed' after spotting a clue.
Actor Ricky Norwood played the role of Arthur 'Fatboy' Chubb until he was apparently killed off.
Fans were led to believe the lovable character had met his fate after being caught up in a feud between The Mitchells and Hubbards.
However viewers have spotted a clue that Fatboy is in fact alive.
As Walford residents learned of the sad passing of Dot Cotton, she was given a royal send-off.
On Tuesday's episode EastEnders' latest newbie Reiss Colwell was reading out sympathy cards for the legend.
While in Dot's living room Reiss pulled one of the cards down from the shelf.
"With Deepest Sympathy", it said on the front, but what was inside has shocked fans.
It appeared to be a message from Arthur himself.
It read: "Mrs B - Forever in my heart. Arthur x."
