BBC Share By Helen Fear Apr 20 2018 By Helen Fear Apr 20 2018 EastEnders' Vincent Hubbard's dodgy police deal may lead to his downfall It's the beginning of the end for the soap character... EastEnders Share By Helen Fear Apr 20 2018 By Helen Fear Apr 20 2018 Vincent Hubbard has made a dodgy deal with the police – and EastEnders fans think it will be his downfall. In fact, after BBC viewers were introduced to a shady new Detective last night (19 April), they think likeable rogue Vincent is heading into a trap… Will Vincent Hubbard be leaving Walford in a taxi or a box? (Credit: BBC) After getting into serious debt, the character (played by Richard Blackwood) chose the slippery path of becoming a police informant to save his family from being evicted.

In recent weeks, we’ve seen him supplying them with information about the New Year robbery he was involved in – grassing up Aidan Maguire and Phil Mitchell in the process. Article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Up until now, he’s been dealing with DI Franklin. But new DCI Alsworth has appeared on the scene – and soap fans smelt a rat. Is the new DCI the cause of Vincent’s downfall? (Credit: BBC) The new officer insisted that Vincent would need to leave Albert Square ASAP if he wanted to keep his family safe from Phil and Aidan – sounds like sound advice, so far. But fans think the DI is dodgy – as he appeared after Phil made a mystery phone call to an unknown person, saying: “I know I’m the last person you want to hear from but we’ve got a problem.” Some presumed he was calling Aidan, while others even hoped he was calling Grant. But now some fans are convinced the new copper is bent – and working for the Irish villain. Is he even a policeman? He may be quite handsome, but is he dodgy? (Credit: BBC) One soap fan tweeted: “I suspect that last minute replacement ‘DI’ came from the same place as ‘Savana’ the estate agent. Vincent is about to become a resident of the same landfill housing Fatboy and Patrick’s son.” Don’t miss out: Three steps to ensure you see all ED!’s latest news on Facebook Another tweeted: “Oh please. It is obvious this ‘policeman’ is something to do with Aidan. Vincent will get in a car and some hoodlum will turn around.” A third agreed, writing: “This new copper isn’t a copper, he’s working for Aidan and they’ve got rid of the original one. That’s my theory.” Vincent is being set up by a fake DI, it’s pretty blatant to me at this point #EastEnders — Matt (@Heathyheath_) April 19, 2018 Aidan, that lady Savannah, now Phil Mitchell and a possible fake DI…. All these characters have made a fool out of Vincent in 2018, it’s unnecessary #EastEnders — Matt (@Heathyheath_) April 19, 2018 Isn’t that new DI the same guy who turned up after the heist, the one that Ciara told that it was her van and that the robbery was staged? Vincent’s definitely walking into a trap. #eastenders — Reece (@iPC_Gaming) April 19, 2018 https://twitter.com/dinogoldie/status/987043253248806913 https://twitter.com/Laura_Showgirl/status/987053083183271936 https://twitter.com/mishybabez_/status/987043126517919745 https://twitter.com/ClaireBowen1/status/987042425570037760 #Eastenders I suspect this is a big set up and the "cop" is a ringer. Vincent is being a fool. — Santa Lucia (@luciavitrix) April 19, 2018 Can this many eagle-eyed EastEnders fans be wrong? What we DO know for sure if that Vincent leaves VERY soon in dramatic scenes – possibly even tonight. But whether he leaves in a taxi or a box remains to be seen… Would you like to see the door left open for Vincent Hubbard to return?
