EastEnders hints at more violence with possible Hunter suicide

What WAS that gunshot?

EastEnders has ended with a shocking suggestion of yet more bloodshed after a festive period packed with violence.

The soap has seen Stuart Highway savagely beaten, Alfie Moon pushed down the stairs, Mel Owen left for dead, and Ray Kelly run over then shot in recent episodes.

In another violent twist, the latest episode hinted that Hunter Owen turned the gun he used as a murder weapon on himself.

The shocking suicide would leave a grisly body count after a Christmas and New Year marked by brutal storylines.

Some viewers were stunned by what they heard…

Others think there is another explanation – that Mel was having a flashback to Raybeing shot and that is what we heard…

Another fan had a further theory: Hunter fantasising about his next ‘kill’…

What do you think happened?
