EASTENDERS fans are predicting gangster newbie Jags Pansear will save Chantelle Atkins from her abuser Gray.

The Pansear clan finally arrived in Walford during tonight’s episode of the BBC soap while looking for their sister Ash.

Jags spots Chantelle across the road

The siblings split up, searching through the market, the park and The Queen Vic.

Vinny (Shiv Jalota) managed to track Ash down without telling the other two brothers, while Kheerat (Jaz Deol) and Jags (Amar Adatia) searched the rest of the square.

Jags caught the eye of Chantelle and it became immediately clear that the two knew each other.

Even Gray seems to sense something is wrong, staring at him while taking the rubbish out when he spots him later on in the episode.

It’s clear Chantelle recognises him too

Later on Kheerat asks his brother what’s wrong.

Jags says: “You know that girl I used to date back in school – Chantelle?”

Kheeret replies: “Tall, fit. I remember you crushing hard for her.”

“We had a date,” Jags says.

Kheerat bites back: “Yeah? Did she know about it? Cos stalking doesn’t count.”

The pair then end up going to the pub together.

When abuser Gray turns up she moves away

However, Jags might be the person who ends up helping Chantelle, as her husband Gray.

Fans certainly think so, with one person saying: “#EastEnders Looks like the other key for Chantelle escaping her abusive relationship with Gray is Jags!”

Another added: “#EastEnders Small appearance from Gray tonight but an important one. Who would of known that Jags liked Chantelle, and how does Gray get mixed into this whole thing? Can’t wait to find out!”

A third said: “Looking forward to Jags dangling Gray off the bridge instead of Martin.”

He walks away – but will he save them?

The introduction of Jags could end up making things worse at first, as Gray has proven he takes out his insecurities on his wife.

Which could prove especially troubling given Gray watches Chantelle at all times – and has isolated her as much as possible.
