EastEnders Spoilers: Tragedy Strikes – Will Luke Kill Ben Mitchell?

On EastEnders when an ugly repeat of, “like father, like son,” pops up, could it lead to the demise of a certain Walford resident?

In the coming days it becomes tragically apparent that Luke Browning (Adam Astill) is just like his old man, the rage-filled James Willmott-Brown (William Boyde).

And this is terrible news for his love interest, mechanic Ben Mitchell (Harry Reid). In the beginning of their relationship it appeared that Luke had escaped the family curse.

But after the recent discovery of Weyland & Co’s true intentions, Luke didn’t take kindly to being found out. To make matters worse, Luke physically attacked his half-brother for having the nerve to question him about it.

Now the skin is really set to hit the fan, as the soap prepares to put the dastardly man’s plan into overdrive.

EastEnders spoilers tease that first a smug James arrives and has the nerve to tell Ben that his car needs to be worked on. Not backing down, Ben tells him where to go: the curb!

But Luke later seeks to make amends with Ben by splashing the cash and throwing a flashy sports car his way.

Once Ben discovers the truth about his new gift, he refuses to accept the consolation prize. In dramatic spoiler pics from the show, Ben tells Luke at the garage that he won’t take his car, but things quickly turn nasty.

According to EastEnders spoilers, next week Ben informs a smartly dressed Luke that they’re through, news that enrages the slick con artist. At first he tries talking Ben down, but when he realizes that things won’t go his way, Luke resorts to acting just like his insane daddy.

It doesn’t look good for Ben, and in particular in one graphic photo he’s doubled over as an angry Luke pummels him.

Ben fights back at the crazed Luke, but clearly comes out on the losing end of things. How will Ben respond to being attacked by the son of the man who attacked his mom?
