EastEnders fans ‘work out’ what happens next to Teddy Mitchell after shocking murder
EastEnders confirmed the end of Okie’s terror as he was stabbed by Harry Mitchell but it was Teddy Mitchell who was carted off by the police in a jaw-dropping twist
EastEnders villain Okie has been killed off after he was accidentally stabbed by Harry Mitchell during a fight.
As fans of the BBC soap will know, Okie (Aayan Ibikunle Shoderu) held Harry (Elijah Holloway) hostage after he threatened to expose Ravi Gulati’s (Aaron Thiara) drug operation.
It was Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho) who managed to help break Harry free before Harry told the police the truth about Okie and Ravi’s criminal antics.
On Tuesday (November 11), Okie threatened Kojo, demanding to know what he told the police, and instructed him to text Harry. Suffering from withdrawal, Harry went to meet a drug dealer but was stopped in his tracks by Kojo’s message.
Harry eventually arrived to find Okie threatening Kojo with a knife and rushed to his friend’s defence. Kojo fled before a fight broke out between Harry and Okie, resulting in Harry accidentally stabbing Okie.
Before Harry got a chance to confess to stabbing Okie, his dad returned to the flat and called the police, leaving him distraught as Teddy was arrested.
Meanwhile, Kojo explained to his big brother, George Knight (Colin Salmon), how Okie threatened to stab him, and Harry saved his life.
EastEnders fans are now convinced Kojo will tell the police the truth about Okie’s murder, and consequently, Harry and Teddy will both be let off the hook for his death.
Taking to Facebook, one viewer wrote: “I thought Kojo would save Teddy from prison because he witnessed what happened, but it was self-defence.”
Another added: “Really hope Teddy isn’t leaving and it leads to a self-defence court case for the Xmas episodes.”
A third predicted: “I don’t think this has finished yet, Kojo will tell the police what happened and Harry will get off as it was self-defence. Teddy might get charged with perverting the course of justice.”
“If Walford Police have any credibility, they will know through forensics it wasn’t him, but previous history tells us they are clueless, especially with Jack leading the way”, shared one fan.
While another also predicted Teddy would not be charged with Okie’s murder, they wrote: “But…No blood on him and no blood anywhere else as he didn’t wash his hands (can’t pretend he did). Probably no DNA from Teddy on Okie.
“No Okie fingerprints on the knife, just Teddy, but he might admit wiping it and say Harry grabbed it? Delay between stabbing and phone call, needs explanation.”
They added: “Kojo will say he saw Harry fighting Okie but didn’t tell anyone (until much later) how did Teddy know he was there? I don’t think it will necessarily be a straightforward case just because he admitted it.”
