EastEnders already filming Christmas storylines as set is decked out in lights

The EastEnders cast and crew have already started filming the soap’s Christmas storylines, with Albert Square already decorated in festive fairy lights.

It has been reported that the popular BBC soap opera, that is set in the East End of London, is midway through filming scenes for its explosive Christmas storylines.

In pictures obtained by The Sun it is apparent that the set of the popular soap has already been decorated for their winter episodes.

With sparkling string fairy lights illuminating Albert Square and the famous pub, it’s clear to see that the filming is most likely moving quickly.

Fans are already anticipating what the festive storylines might hold, with many longing for Gray’s demise to happen before the anticipated Christmas special.

One fan took to Twitter to say: “The way Ruby Allen’s lies and manipulations caught up with her is how Gray’s need to catch up with him fast because I cannot be waiting until Christmas iI am sick of him. They also need to stop pairing Whitney with abusive men I am over that narrative.”

This month (September) marks one year since Chantelle, Gray’s wife, was brutally murdered in a chilling domestic abuse storyline.

Gray Atkins has since murdered two more people and still hasn’t been caught out.

The lawyer-turned-serial-killer started his killing spree last autumn when he pushed his wife onto an open dishwasher, leaving her to bleed to death after she landed on an upturned knife.

Since Chantelle’s death he has strangled Tina Carter to death and most recently pushed Kush Kazemi in front of a moving Tube train.

It has been speculated by fans of the soap that one of Gray’s victims could be gearing up for an explosive return this Christmas.

Fans have predicted that Tina survived the attack and has been waiting to return to expose him for what he did to her and Chantelle – but could fans have clocked it, or are they completely off the scent?

One fan predicted: “EastEnders this Christmas could be super lit if they reveal all secrets, from Gray to Ruby, Tina comes back, Max returns, Ash finds out her mum gave Peter some sloppy.”

Another said: “I’m convinced Tina isn’t dead. Maybe she’ll return Halloween or Christmas.”

A third penned: “RT if you think Tina Carter is coming back at Christmas.”

Earlier this month Executive Producer Jon Sen revealed Gray Atkins’ exposure at Christmas will come in spectacular style and is set to be a 1 hour five minute special.
