Kheerat Panesar is worried he's losing Chelsea Atkins' help to bring killer Gray Atkins to justice in Friday's episode of EastEnders (8:00 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings)

Kheerat Panesar is keen to get on Gray Atkins' good side again if he's got any chance of getting Gray to slip up and confess to murdering his first wife Chantelle Atkins.

He also wants to make sure that Gray's new wife Chelsea Atkins is still on with the plan, as since her son Jordan's premature birth she seems to have become more and more under Gray's control.

Kheerat offers to take some papers from Eve Unwin to the hospital to give to Gray, who is actually relieved to see him. Gray insists that Kheerat can stick around for a bit but it's clear that Chelsea is irritated.

Meanwhile, Chelsea bumps into a nurse who is not happy to see Gray. She remembers him from Chantelle's frequent visits to hospital when she was clearly being abused by him.

When the nurse finds out that Chantelle has died she is sickened. She tells Chelsea if she ever needs some help, she's there for her.

Chelsea, however, doesn't want to listen and brushes aside her offer. When Kheerat gets the chance to speak to Chelsea alone he asks her how things are going. What will she say?
