EastEnders fans predict ‘amnesia’ twist as Nish wakes up from his coma

Will Nish remember the events of Christmas Day?

| Updated:

Fans of EastEnders have predicted that unconscious Nish Panesar is going to awaken from his coma with a serious case of amnesia… potentially not remembering that he was whacked over the head by Denise on Christmas Day.

This follows the climax of a year’s worth of plotting, in which he attacked Suki in The Vic after realising his wife planned to leave him for lover Eve.

As ‘The Six’ attempted to hold Nish back, Denise lashed out – smashing him over the head with a champagne bottle.

For a while, it looked as though Nish had died from his injuries. And although Suki did manage to revive her evil husband, The Six had already killed again in the meanwhile – with Linda stabbing Keanu to death as he tried to attack Sharon.

Last night (Monday, January 8), it was revealed that Nish has awoken from his coma. But, could he have amnesia?

EastEnders fans predict amnesia storyline for Nish

As events play out, fans have begun to predict where this leaves Nish. And many think that he could have a case of amnesia.

One fan wrote: “I think Nish might have amnesia or he’ll fake it to try and get Priya Vinny & Avani on his side. If Nish remembers what happened that night I’ll be shocked especially as he took a blow to the head. Really want Ravi to team up with the Six as well to defend Suki.”

Another EastEnders fan exclaimed: “Nish is awake. Let’s hope he has amnesia!!”

“To be fair, after a major head injury like that it wouldn’t be unusual to lose a bit of memory!” agreed another, adding credence to the theory.

Nish fakes amnesia as he plans his revenge?

Some agreed that amnesia will probably be in Nish’s future – but that it may be faked.

“Or Nish is going to wake up and pretend to have amnesia! It will be one or the other I reckon!” one fan theorised.

“Yeah he’ll pretend. He knows Ravi killed Ranveer and probably has the video, but he could also just use the first part of the video and frame Suki,” said another.
