EastEnders viewers were on the edge of their seats when Ravi made a shocking confession to his lover Denise, culminating in the unexpected use of strong language.

The intense moment underscored the high stakes and emotional turmoil faced by the characters in the aftermath of the harrowing events of Nish Panesar’s d3ath.

Viewers were left reeling after Nish manipulated his son Ravi into a deadly confrontation, pushing him to the brink during a tense moment on the balcony of the hotel where Suki and Eve had just tied the knot.

In a bid to take Suki down with him, Nish grabbed her scarf as he fell.

Since that fateful night, the residents have hailed Ravi as a savior, but the reality is far darker.

As Suki clings to life in the hospital, Ravi is consumed by guilt.

Viewers saw a vulnerable side of him as he opened up to Denise, confessing that he never felt like a hero and harbored deep-seated resentment towards Nish.

The raw emotion reached its peak when Ravi shockingly swore during his confession, admitting, “I wanted to rip his head off! I wanted to choke the old bastard.”

Fans were taken aback by the intense scene, showcasing Ravi’s inner turmoil and hinting at the emotional depth yet to come in this gripping storyline.

They took to social media to express their surprise at the swearing, with one tweeting: “PRE WATERSHED BASTARD?? angie watts would be proud xx”

Bloodiest ever EastEnders New Years as FOUR characters ‘d!e’ in Nish Panesar’s revenge
Meanwhile, the BBC soap announced last year that their 40th anniversary will be marked by a fan vote to decide which way a love triangle would fall.

EastEnders boss Chris Clenshaw has revealed the love triangle it will be Denise, Jack and Ravi.

Fans will get the power to decide whether Denise Fox reunites with estranged husband Jack or picks secret lover Ravi Gulati instead in an interactive Walford first.

For the first time ever, as part of the show’s 40th birthday celebrations, viewers get to vote for their choice of outcome, which will be revealed during a special live episode in anniversary week.

Last year, Denise and Jack’s tumultuous marriage finally fell apart when it was revealed that he’d been having an affair with Stacey Slater.

However, since then, Jack and Denise have given in to passion a few times and shared plenty of warm moments as part of their blended family.

More recently, Denise has been secretly seeing former flame Ravi since a romantic encounter on Christmas Day.

Things are complicated between them due to Ravi’s troubled past, and the fact he used to be in a serious relationship with Denise’s daughter Chelsea.

There’s a lot to consider as viewers watch Denise torn between the two men, but ultimately, they will be able to vote on the outcome they want.

The executive producer said: “We’re all so excited to give our audience their first ever chance to decide how one of our big storylines plays out.

“Their votes will determine whether Denise picks Jack or Ravi, with the outcome being revealed as part of our live episode.

“There is a lot to come over the next few weeks for all three involved, so it’ll be extremely exciting to see which way the audience choose to take the story!”
