EastEnders fans ‘work out’ new villain – and it’s bad news for the Panesars

-

There could be a new villain about to cause havoc on EastEnders, if a new theory is anything to go by.

Viewers are fearing the Panesar family could face more trouble ahead following the demise of killer Nish Panesar just weeks ago. Now, another member of the family could be about to feature in dark scenes, with a new villain on the way potentially.

Fans of the BBC soap are predicting that Nugget could be about to turn into “the new Nish”, following in his evil grandfather’s footsteps. Viewers have seen him acting out after he was manipulated by Nish in recent weeks.

Nish had caused so much drama in his two years on the soap, initially joining his family in Walford after being released from prison after a past murder. Since his arrival his marriage to Suki Panesar ended after his vile abuse, with her leaving him for her soulmate Eve Unwin.

We also saw Nish try to kill his own sons Ravi and Vinny, as well as attacking Suki and Eve, before he took the blame for Keanu Taylor’s murder. After finding out Suki’s plans to marry Eve though, he took revenge and escaped prison, hiding out in Walford with the help of Nugget who he manipulated.

New Year drama saw Nish finally die in dramatic scenes after another attempt to kill Eve and Suki, as well as him attacking Denise Fox. In the fallout the characters are rebuilding their lives, but Nugget is out of control.

Furious with his family for being glad that Nish is gone, he’s made it clear he is Team Nish in the entire situation even after everything he did. Nish had gotten into his head to the point that Nugget wants some sort of vengeance it seems for his demise.

Refusing to accept Nish’s actions were wrong, Nugget has lashed out at his mum Priya and even Denise, despite Denise almost dying because of him. He’s laid into a number of characters and his family, and he doesn’t seem to be coming round to the fact that Nish was the villain, not them.

Now, fans think he is turning into “a mini Nish” and he might even be the next villain on the show. His vile language and actions towards residents have left many fans concerned that the Panesar family are about to face more heartache and trouble.

One viewer said: “The writers are definitely setting Nugget up to be the new Nish.” Another agreed: “Nugget will probably turn into a mini Nish!!” as a third added: “Is Nugget trying to be Nish 2.0 or something?” Another fan begged: “Please don’t make Nugget Nish 2.0. Nish really messed up Nugget’s mind.”
