Viewers were on the edge of their seats, as they watched Gray be confronted by a number of residents with plenty for him to run from.

At the start of the episode, we saw Gray attempt to kill his wife Chelsea Fox after finding out she had called the police on him, and recorded him confessing to ex-wife Chantelle's murder.

As the serial killer visited Karen, Chantelle's mother, to collect his kids and flee for good, she realised the truth about her daughter's death and stopped him taking the children.

When Gray attempted to go for Karen, she managed to alert the police that he was there, leading to Gray running away again to The Queen Vic.

Tina's sister Shirley was ready to kill him in revenge, with her attacking him repeatedly but she was stopped by her son Mick, and Gray smashed a glass at Shirley head leaving her seriously injured.

Whitney saw Gray walking out of Walford she alerted the police and chased him, they both ended up on the railway bridge above the market.

Whitney told Gray he has no where to go and suggested his only way out would be to jump off the bridge, but told him he needed to face justice.

Gray suddenly jumped and Whitney clung on to him, only for her to slip and fall over the side of the bridge.

As they both hung from the bridge, Gray admitted to Whitney that he killed Kush.

Just as it looked as though Gray would fall, Mitch appeared and grabbed onto him and helped Whitney pull him back over onto the bridge.

The police then came and arrested Gray, with Walford residents watching in shock.
