Jasmine Fisher is about to stand trial for the murder of her father Anthony Trueman. EastEnders have confirmed the dramatic court case will take place next week, with the verdict being delivered in Thursday’s episode.

Zoe’s daughter’s fate is hanging in the balance, but some EastEnders fans think it’s already been sealed. In fact, they’re convinced Jasmine is about to be killed off from the soap in the same way as tragic Danielle Jones, meaning she won’t get the chance to reconcile with her family.

EastEnders: Jasmine is innocent

Jasmine has always maintained that she killed Anthony in self-defense, and now there’s the evidence to prove it.

Despite Max and Cindy’s best attempts to destroy it, the Slaters have seen the footage of Jasmine attacking Anthony. And it seemingly proves that she acted to protect Zoe. Meaning she’s innocent after all.

Oscar has informed Jasmine of this latest development, which has raised her hopes that she’ll walk free. Jasmine is also hoping her and Oscar can pick up from where they left off once she’s back home in Walford. But of course she’s got no clue that Oscar has been getting jiggy with her twin Josh.

EastEnders fans fear for Jasmine’s life

On a Reddit discussion about the future of Jasmine in EastEnders, viewers expressed their fear that she may never be part of the Slater clan. One went as far as saying they thought Jasmine’s days on the Square could be numbered.

“I’m really worried Jasmine is another Danielle (Ronnie’s daughter),” the concerned fan confessed. “A girl whose life is just misery and abandonment until the show just decides to kill them off.”

Viewers will remember how Danielle was mowed down by Janine Butcher‘s car just seconds after reconciling with long-lost mum Ronnie. The heartbreaking scenes, which aired in April 2009, saw Danielle die in Ronnie’s arms, robbing them both of a life together.

Is Zoe going to lose her daughter in similar circumstances? Surely the EastEnders writers wouldn’t be that cruel? Or would they?

EastEnders: Will Oscar end up with Jasmine or Josh?

Many fans agree Oscar is the best thing in EastEnders right now. The response to him and Josh as a potential couple also seems positive. But are they going to make a go of it? Or will Oscar resume his romance with Jasmine?

The New Year’s Day flashforward provided clues that Oscar was seeing someone. Lauren teased her smitten brother about “you know who”, and Patrick tells Oscar he’s part of the Trueman family. Did Patrick sayi that because Oscar in a serious relationship with either Jasmine or Joshua? And might that decision be left in the hands of the viewers?

“I’m thinking we’re going to get another public vote for who Oscar ends up with like they did for Denise,” one hopeful fan stated.

So who do you reckon Oscar is most likely to end up with?
