Lucas Johnson

Will they get Inspector Marsbar on the case or will they have to send in the professionals, like DS Carter?

Or, is it a case for Chief Superintendent Beth (Ruby Allen) Green?

I though he was attacking outside the square.. wonder what Denise finds about him?

OOhh, things hotting up in Easties. This looks good but as she's not leaving - I take it she lives?

Another Albert Square regular is reportedly left fighting for their life in the coming weeks when preacher Lucas snaps again.


According to The Sun, Denise (played by Diane Parish) is left at the mercy of her husband Lucas (played by Don Gilet) when he flies into a rage, attempting to throttle her when they are out driving near the canal.


A source said: "He snaps and throttles her. She is seen fighting him off and kicking at the windows, before going limp."


He then puts on black leather gloves and pushes her into the canal and saunters away."


"But unbeknown to him, he was spotted and the police were called."

"They arrive and within minutes divers pull out a body."


It is not clear whether or not Denise will survive the attack.

Why would he attack her?

[Perdita]

Maybe she is asking too many questions about Owen and his disappearance?

[Dazzle]

I'm not sure if I believe this. Surely Don Gilet would have to leave after Lucas tries, and fails, to kill Denise. She would remember it, surely, and tell the police. I don't think there's been any reports of either of them leaving.

He might not get found out for quite a while yet, Denise might have amnesia and not remember for a while what he did to her

Yet another time bomb waiting to explode and rock the square!

In a huge EastEnders story twist, murderous preacher Lucas Johnson strangles his wife and childhood sweetheart Denise before dumping her lifeless body into a nearby canal.

During a drive out of the Square with Denise, Lucas decides to stop by what could become her watery grave. Their pleasant discussion soon becomes heated, catapulting Lucas into a viscious rage. With that, he instinctively grabs Denise's neck and begins throttling her.

Fighting and kicking at the window, Denise struggles to escape her husband's evil clutches but her body quickly becomes limp as she loses consciousness.

Grabbing for his black gloves, Lucas drags her lifeless body from the motor and dumps it into the canal. Unbeknown to him, though, a passerby has spotted the commotion and called the police

Fleeing the scene, Lucas throws Denise's mobile into the water with her, before launching a brick through the car window in a bid to make out that he and Denise were attacked.

The police promptly arrive at the location and within minutes, expert divers recover Denise's motionless body from the water - but is she dead?

Has Lucas claimed his fifth victim, having bumped off a prostitute only weeks before?

And could Diane Parish be leaving EastEnders like her screen daughters Tiana Benjamin (Chelsea) and Belinda Owusu (Libby)?

If she is suppose to be dead why is she holding the diver's hand

Lucas started killing to be with Denise so why would he kill her now?
