EastEnders to air 'big' stunt tonight as killer Gray faces dramatic comeuppance

EastEnders stars have confirmed a stunt will air on Thursday night, as the Gray Atkins storyline reaches a thrilling yet dramatic conclusion.

Scenes this week have shown Walford realising that there is a killer amongst them, with a cliffhanger on Wednesday night leaving fans "screaming".

The Carters are now aware that Gray killed Tina, and Mitch Baker knows his son-in-law murdered his daughter Chantelle in 2020, before making it look like an accident.

Gray's new wife Chelsea Fox managed to record his confession about Chantelle, by calling 999 during their tense showdown.

The episode ended with Gray realising this and staring at her menacingly, with fans now predicting she could be his final victim.

It isn't yet known how Gray will face his comeuppance, and if he will be caught by the police or if someone will take a deadly revenge.

It also isn't known if he will strike again, given he's definitely facing a showdown with four separate women.

There's the moment Chantelle's mother Karen Taylor attacks him when she finds out the truth, as well as Shirley Carter taking revenge for Tina.

We know the episode will start with Gray and Chelsea after their own showdown on Wednesday night, and Whitney is set to seek out the killer too, resulting in big scenes.

What is known is that with Whitney and Gray's moment of confrontation, a stunt of sorts will feature while no details on this have been spilled by the show ahead of transmission.

Speaking of the moment Gray and Whitney come face-to-face, Gray actor Toby-Alexander Smith teased: "There are going to be some really tense moments, there is a pretty big stunt involved which we both had a lot of fun filming.

"Ultimately Whitney is fearless at this point, she has been trying to get Gray for a long time so there is massive showdown that is really exciting.

"It was very fun playing them battling out together."
