Ray (East Enders) - Al

Al was a mysterious character who arrived in Albert Square on 10 August 2006, moving into his new home, 93 George Street. Chelsea Fox took an instant liking to him, and he was watched by Sean Slater. He also flirted with Ruby Allen in her nightclub, Scarlet.

He was previously a soldier stationed in Iraq with Sean, until he shot Sean in the back at point-blank range because he thought that Sean slept with his girlfriend before they shipped out. He was acquitted of charges, and moved to Walford.

Sean tracked him down, and planned to kill him until bumping into his sister, Stacey. Sean broke into Al's flat and started threatening and intimidating him. He then told him to finish the job he started, implying that Al should kill him. When Al looked away, Sean head-butted him, tied him up and duct taped his mouth shut to stop his cries. The next time they appeared Sean was taking a bound and gagged Al out of his car. He hung him upside down in a remote location and began torturing him. Al tried to reply to Sean but the tape on his mouth restrained him. Sean then cut Al down leaving him gagged and his feet tied up. He told him never to return to Walford, or he would hang him for real.
