EastEnders fans were left scratching their heads over an apparently plot hole in a phone call between Jack Branning and Lucas Johnson.
The biggest storyline currently gripping Albert Square is the murder of Keanu Taylor, who was shockingly killed off on Christmas Day. He had a heated confrontation with Sharon Watts at the Queen Vic after she revealed that Phil Mitchel was the real dad of her son, Albie, not Keanu.
Things turned nasty when Keanu started to strangle Sharon, leading Linda Carter to stab him in the back with a carving fork, ending his life. Denise Fox saw everything and helped Sharon and Linda hide the crime.

She and Stacey Slater moved Keanu’s body to Kathy Cotton’s cafe and buried him under the floorboards in cement. While they were hiding the body, Denise’s special necklace fell off and is now lying next to Keanu’s hidden body.
Recently, viewers have seen Denise struggling with guilt and even starting to imagine that Keanu is haunting her. In the latest EastEnders episodes, Denise popped over to see her ex-hubby Lucas Johnson, who himself is in jail for murder.
Denise was all over the place and blurted out “she buried him”. Lucas got worried and asked if she had done someone in, but she said: “No. But I helped to cover it up.”
Lucas couldn’t get any more out of Denise, but he was left feeling really worried. After Denise had gone, he called cop Jack Branning – who is now Denise’s man.
Lucas told Jack he’s really worried about how Denise is doing in her head. But what got EastEnders fans talking wasn’t just the drama – they spotted something that didn’t make sense.
Fans flocked to X to have a moan about a flaw in the story. One asked: “How did Lucas have Jack’s phone number? #EastEnders,” with a cheeky face emoji. Loads of other people were asking the same thing.
One person said: “How on Earth would Lucas know Jack’s number on #EastEnders @bbceastenders.” Another confused fan added: “Because Lucas just randomly knows Jack’s mobile number? EastEnders.”
Denise exited the soap on Thursday (February 22) and was taken away to a hospital by medical professionals due to her worrying mental state. Somebody called the hospital, but it’s unclear who.
