Gaynor Lucas played by Kathleen Frazer, is an old friend of Tanya Branning (Jo Joyner), who works in Tanya's beauty salon Booty. On 24 February 2009, Gaynor appears as part of an iconic episode of EastEnders featuring only black members of the cast. Gaynor arranges with Chelsea before they finish work to meet in The Queen Victoria public house for a drink. Theo Kelly (Rolan Bell) uses her to get Chelsea to come to the pub so he can speak to her. This episode marks her first credited appearance and first main speaking part.
Booty closes down in late 2009, so Gaynor loses her job. Gaynor works as a makeup artist for Denise Wicks (Diane Parish) wedding, to Lucas Johnson (Don Gilet). In February 2010 she gives out beauty treatments at Bianca Jackson's (Patsy Palmer) hen party. Gaynor resumes her old job when Roxy Mitchell (Rita Simons) reopens the beauty salon as Roxy's. When Roxy faces financial diffuculties, Roxy sells the salon back to Tanya, and Gaynor continues working there.

Famous quotes containing the word lucas:
“The beast exists because it is stronger than the thing that you call evolution. In it is some force of life, a demon, driving it through millions of centuries. It does not surrender so easily to weaklings like you and me.”
