EASTENDERS fans are eager to see how Gray Atkins' downfall will play out this week.

Over on Reddit, some viewers of the BBC One soap are theorising that the serial killer could jump to his death during a rooftop scene.

Actor Toby-Alexander Smith will wave goodbye to the Square in upcoming scenes of the long-running drama as his character Gray gets caught up with the truth.

But after making three victims in Walford, including his first wife Chantelle, the lawyer has always managed to escape justice, leading some viewers to believe he may manipulate his way out of prison again.

However, while his fate remains to be seen, other viewers have shared a theory on Reddit.

According to this theory, Gray could commit suicide, determined to avoid any legal trouble until the very end, as a stunt on Walford rooftops involving the villain has been teased.

In a dramatic twist, one fan commented that "he is going to jump to his death after confessing he killed Kush."

"Roof top runaway, falls off roof. Splat", one Redditor hilariously penned.

While other Reddit users imagined a whodunnit, with Mick and Shirley avenging Tina, Karen fighting the villain or even Kheerat finishing what he already started, one viewer added another character into the mix.

"I have seen behind the scenes footage of a stunt on the roofs of Walford between Whitney and Gray", this viewer wrote, adding: "so it's likely that he either jumps or gets pushed."

Whitney has yet to learn that Gray is responsible for her former fiancé Kush Kazemi's death, although she did accuse him of killing him in a fit of rage in 2021.

Actress Shona McGarty has teased that her character could have a shocking reaction when finding out the truth about Kush's death.

The late Kush was pushed in front of an oncoming train by Gray who had grown obsessed with Whitney.

"As far as she is concerned, Gray was at home at the time of Kush's death and she just believes it was an accident", Shona said.

She added: "Obviously the audience knows different, so hopefully she will get that information at some point."

"When you're given that sort of information, you could do anything though", Shona commented, adding: "You don't know how you're going to react and so Whitney's reaction might actually be really shocking."

But could Whitney go as far as killing Gray?
