Deadenders- spoiler Who killed Dennis Rickman in Eastenders? Spoiler answer below- do not read if you do not wish to know or type your guess for my amusement without scrolling down first. I wouldn't have got it to be fair... Dennis' killer is revealed It's the TV mystery that's tantalised EastEnders viewers for weeks: who killed Dennis Rickman? We know that Johnny Allen ordered the hit, but we were in the dark about who stabbed the dad-to-be in cold blood - until now. So, if you don't want to know whodunnit, look away now... In a week of special episodes to be screened at the end of March, the identity of the killer will be revealed as Danny Moon. Yes - the same Danny Moon who was supposed to have been bumped off by Johnny months ago! But now it turns out the gangster decided to spare Danny's life, in case he came in handy. And there's more... determined to make Johnny pay for what he did to Sharon, Phil sets out to finish his rival once and for all. With Grant at his side, he tracks down Johnny at his new country house. But somehow the gangster knows they're coming and his henchmen overpower the brothers and tie them up. As Danny prepares to murder the Mitchells on Johnny's orders, his brother Jake steps out from the shadows (sharp intake of breath) and shoots him dead. It falls to Johnny to try and grab the gun and kill the bruvs himself, but then help arrives in the unlikely form of Ruby, who pleads with her dad not to commit any more murders and give himself up to police. Amazingly, he agrees. Phew.
