EastEnders fans convinced a HUGE shock is on the way as they fear the victim trapped under the bus may not be Whitney
Viewers believe producers are plotting a massive twist
EASTENDERS fans are convinced a HUGE twist is on the way following this week's bus crash as they fear the real victim will be Lee Carter - not his wife Whitney.
Viewers were left on the edge of the seat's at the end of tonight's episode when Danny Dyer's character Mick Carter realised his daughter-in-law might be trapped under the wreckage.
Queen Vic landlord Mick heard Whitney's phone ringing from under the bus wreck, prompting fears she had been caught up in the chaos.
But EastEnders fans are now speculating that it is not Whitney who is trapped under the bus, but her husband Lee.
The actor who plays Mick's eldest son Lee, Danny-Boy Hatchard, has confirmed he is leaving the show and has even filmed his final scenes.
Viewers flocked to social media tonight to voice their theories that Lee might have his wife's phone and is the real victim lying trapped under the bus after stepping in to save a little boy.
