EastEnders’ Linda Carter could be set to face a brutal ending if fan theories are anything to go by.
Janine Butcher, who recently struck up a romance with Linda’s ex-husband, Mick, has been plotting for the alcohol dependant businesswoman to leave Walford.
Earlier this week, Janine offered Linda £25,000 to make her vanish from Albert Square but Linda had other ideas and demanded that she be paid £50,000, or she wouldn’t leave.
During Thursday’s [May 19] instalment of the BBC soap, viewers saw Janine take a b-line at Linda as she gathered with her family above the Queen Vic pub.

Janine, who later scammed Nancy and Zack out of £50,000 appeared smug as she told the young couple she was “really happy” for them after “signing” for their business.
As Linda appeared emotional while speaking to her family, she apologised for “letting them down”, before reflecting on her actions.
The mum-of-five said she could have been overcome with emotion due to her “hormones, age, or the amount of perfume I inhale living at Sharon’s?”

“Maybe you should move?” commented Janine, while Linda looked extremely frustrated.
Fans have since taken to social media, sharing their thoughts on how Linda’s potential exit could come to light.
“I think Janine’s about ready to strangle Linda # EastEnders,” said one.
While other fans have hit out at Janine as they patiently wait for her evil actions come to light.
One said: “When is Janine going to get discovered #EastEnders?”

A second typed: “Janine you should just shut your mouth and disappear #EastEnders.”
“Nancy’s gonna floor Janine when she finds out what she did #EastEnders,” tweeted another.
On Thursday, viewers were left baffled after manipulative Janine appeared to pull out the staggering sum of money seemingly from nowhere, with many fans of the show convinced that the eye-watering price was an obvious plot hole missed by BBC bosses.
But it’s fair to say bosses hadn’t overlooked the jaw-dropping the price after bosses raised the stakes when the loving mum demanded more money for leaving her life behind her.

After she managed to double her rate to £50,000, EastEnders fans hailed the cunning star for “playing Janine at her own game”.
As Linda entered the Cafe, Janine asked: “I take it you’ve come to a decision on my proposition then?”
Linda replied: “You win, Janine, I’ll leave. But what you offered isn’t enough – you’ll need to double it.”
“I haven’t got fifty grand” she replied as she chuckled at her renegotiation.
“Well you’ll have to find it,” Linda ordered. “I have no job, no house, two young kids. I need enough to start again properly.”
