EastEnders fans have predicted that Ruby Allen could become Lucas Johnson's first victim after noticing a chilling clue.
Viewers watched as former pastor Lucas returned to Albert Square last night as his horrified ex Denise Fox bumped into him during a church service.
Denise had taken her son Raymond to a church service on Christmas Day when Lucas happened to be speaking as part of a rehabilitation programme.
Lucas had been joined by Denise's daughter Chelsea, who he had been in contact with for months, and later followed Denise back to Walford.
After having some terse words with Patrick, with Lucas ominously clenching his fists, the killer bumped into Ruby during the evening.
As she picked at the chips in her takeaway box, Lucas was seen looming behind her as he walked nearby.
"Nice Christmas dinner,' he commented, prompting Ruby to scoff.
"I haven't had any either," Lucas said.
Turning around, Ruby offered him a chip, just as Martin called out to her asking where she had been.
Lucas, meanwhile, gazed after her - and viewers were left incredibly worried about Ruby's future... or lack of one.
One tweeted: "RIP Ruby, Lucas next victim #EastEnders."
While another pleaded: "RUBY RUN #EastEnders."
A third resolved: "If Lucas kills Ruby, we riot. #EastEnders"
"Pastor Lucas leeching around Ruby and the clench of the fist when Patrick told him how it was. He’s still trouble. #EastEnders @bbceastenders," another commented.
