EastEnders: As soap reveals that Nish might not live to see Christmas, exactly how long does he have left?

Nish's death looms

Last night in EastEnders (Thursday, September 26), doctors told Nish that he should make the most of the time he has left with his family.

This came after Nish suffered chest pains, with Suki simply sitting back and watching his suffer.

But, with EastEnders now hinting that Nish may not see Christmas Day this year, here’s everything we know about his upcoming death.

EastEnders: Nish received worrying prognosis

This week in Walford, Suki watched Nish suffer chest pains and collapse onto the floor in pain. As Nish clutched his chest, Suki poured herself a drink and sat back, relishing the moment.

Avani soon turned up with Eve though and wondered what was happening. Avani then saw Nish in pain and helped him, with an ambulance soon turning up. She spotted Suki’s phone in her bag and realised that she had no intention of helping Nish.

At the hospital, doctors told Nish that he was very close to dying. The strain on his heart had caused rapid deterioration.

Nish then asked the doctor how long he had left. Avani then hoped he’d live to see Christmas.

The doctor didn’t tell him exactly how long he was looking at but she did hint that he might not be around for Christmas.

She suggested that he made the most of the little time he had left with his family.

The Sun recently reported that Nish will leave in scenes to come, also reporting that a fire is set to rip through Walford. But, could these two factors be linked? When will Nish die? And, will he live to see Christmas?
