Kheerat Panesar could become killer Gray Atkins' next victim on the BBC soap.

The killer takes action after finding out Kheerat is behind a campaign against him, with recent messages sent to him by his dead wife Chantelle - who Gray murdered in 2020.

Of course viewers know that Kheerat and Whtiney Dean both discovered the truth about Gray's abuse towards Chantelle in December last year, when she uncovered messages on a domestic abuse forum.

It all kicks off next week after Gray figures out what Kheerat is up to, and asks him to meet him.

Whitney fears he is getting in too deep, amid her own plan to bring down Gray, but she has no idea just how much Gray has figured out about their revenge plan against him.

He soon ignores her advice and rushes to meet Gray, believing he might be in trouble and might confess to his crimes.

It isn't long though until Gray's true intentions surface, and Kheerat realises he's in a dangerous situation.

The two men struggle to keep their anger in check as they become embroiled in a deadly showdown, leaving one life hanging in the balance.

Both men begin flinging accusations at each other, so perhaps Kheerat will finally get his confession - but will it cost him his life?
