EastEnders’ murder reveal sees game-changing confession from Nicola Mitchell in iPlayer release

In the soap opera EastEnders, Teddy Mitchell (played by Roland Manookian) was deeply shaken when his wife Nicola (Laura Doddington) made another startling revelation. This disclosure has significantly altered their situation.

Given that Benji (Carl Prekopp) was apprehended by police following Teddy’s arrangement for his arrest in connection with Harry Mitchell’s (Elijah Holloway) girlfriend Shireen Bashar’s murder, Nicola worked diligently to hide her involvement as the actual perpetrator of the crime.

After talking to Shireen’s brother Asad (Aslan Amjad), who exposed the falsehood in Nicola’s claim that she gave her bracelet to Shireen as a gift, Harry challenged his mother at Harry’s Barn.

In intense and heart-wrenching moments, Harry found it tough to carry on as he soaked the bar with alcohol, intending to ignite it, expressing that he saw no reason to go on living anymore.

Teddy showed up later due to a piece of information, and Harry was taken aback when he discovered that his father was aware of Nicola’s involvement in the wrongdoing.

Teddy managed to keep Harry from harming their mother, despite finding it hard to believe that Nicola didn’t want Shireen dead and had merely hired Benji to frighten her away, without fully understanding Nicola’s real intentions.

Now, it’s clear that Nicola was trying to prevent Shireen from exposing the truth about Teddy not being Barney’s (Lewis Bridgeman) real biological son, as Zack Hudson (James Farrar) is instead.

However, things took a turn for the worse when, privately with Teddy, Nicola accidentally revealed that it had been a mistake to ask Benji to relocate Shireen’s remains.

In a startling turn of events, it became clear to Teddy that Nicola had withheld some information from him. Later, in a series of stunning admissions, Nicola admitted to having taken the life of Shireen, as she met her unfortunate end during a disagreement between the two.

“There was nothing I could do,” she admitted, insisting it was an accident.

Teddy was deeply angered, his very being shaken by Nicola’s actions that drove Harry to the edge.

Will Teddy expose Nicola’s crime, and will he ever unearth the truth about Barney’s paternity?

And where does Harry go from here?
