In the meantime, this week's episodes see Dee-Dee Bailey confess to her father Ed that she's the one who killed Joel, although with more twists and turns ahead beyond that, it's highly likely that there's more to the story that she's currently unaware of.
Other key suspects who have been named so far include Mason Radcliffe, Ed Bailey, Ronnie Bailey, DS Lisa Swain and Carla Connor.
Kit himself is also a suspect, as he's keeping his own sly secrets over the evening of Joel's death.
