'EastEnders' fans will see Dennis Rickman floor gangster Johnny Allen in his final gripping scenes this week.
The Albert Square heartthrob, played by Nigel Harman, will dish out a beating to his rival after learning Johnny, played by Billy Murray, has threatened his pregnant wife Sharon.
Dennis - who is leaving the popular soap in the New Year - will injure Johnny so badly that the tough guy is left fighting for his life in hospital.
However, Johnny still finds the strength to order a revenge attack on Dennis which has fatal consequences.
A soap insider said: "It ends in tragedy for Dennis and Sharon."
Earlier this year, Harman announced he was quitting 'EastEnders' over fears he would become typecast as an actor.
The 32-year-old star will make his big-screen debut next year in new movie 'Bob's Not Gay' opposite actress Margo Stilley - who shot to fame after filming real sex scenes in controversial movie '9 Songs'.
