After a week of live episodes to celebrate the 30th anniversary of EastEnders, the 'Who Killed Lucy?' storyline came to an emotional end. Bobby Beale was revealed as the killer on Thursday night, though Jane tried to take the blame for her murder when finally confronted by Ian. But the tearful father realised his new wife was protecting his youngest son, and decided to protect their murderous secret anyway - as Bobby doesn't even realise he killed his sister. Tragic truth: Ian Beale discovers his son Bobby killed Lucy in the finale of the EastEnders live week Show boss Dominic Treadwell-Collins said: 'He thinks she got up and walked out the door, and that is what Jane has said to him.'
