It has been confirmed that the Beales will gather to remember Lucy on the anniversary of her murder. Fans will recall that Lucy was accidentally killed by her younger brother Bobby Beale during a heated argument at their home, reports the Mirror. Lucy and Bobby’s stepmother Jane covered up the crime for almost a year, even moving Lucy’s body to the woods.

A year later, the family discovered the truth, but it wasn’t until another year had passed that Bobby confessed his crime and was sent to a youth detention centre. This year marks the first anniversary of Lucy Beale’s death with her mum Cindy Beale in the square, nearly a year after her jaw-dropping resurrection from the grave in a classic soap bombshell.

The buzz around an upcoming hour-long EastEnders special has fans absolutely convinced that the showrunners have got something massive up their sleeves. While it might just be a bit of schedule juggling to make room for some sports action on the telly, the whispers among the fanbase are that the 10th anniversary of Lucy’s untimely demise is bound to come with its fair share of twists.

Speculation is rife that this could be the perfect moment for Jane Beale to make her grand return to Albert Square, having left under a cloud in 2017 following a nasty spat with Max Branning who was out for blood, wrongly accused of Lucy’s murder. Eager viewers have taken to social media to air their predictions about Jane’s potential comeback. One eager fan tweeted: “I really hope Jane comes back! ! ! ” while another chimed in: “The return of Jane Clarke looms x.”

Another added: “we need our jane’s return,” and yet another viewer expressed: “God I want Jane Beale to come back for Lucy’s 10th anniversary and just deck Cindy Jane is a much better character than Cindy.” Someone else put out into the universe: “Manifesting Jane will be back for Lucys 10 year anniversary week and now with Cindy back would like to see them come face to face it needs to happen.”
