In tonight’s shocking episode of EastEnders, killer Reiss Colwell struck again, and it spells even more trouble for Sonia Fowler.
Reiss, the creepy accountant played by Jonny Freeman, previously murdered his comatose wife Debbie and has let his pregnant fiancée, Sonia, rot in prison awaiting trial for the crime. Bianca has been suspicious of Reiss for weeks, and in tonight’s episode, she uncovered key evidence that forced him to confess.
When Reiss arrived home, he was confronted by Bianca, who had found CCTV footage showing him at the care home. Bianca demanded answers, but Reiss stubbornly denied responsibility, repeating, “I didn’t kill Debbie.”
However, Bianca’s relentless pressure finally made him crack, and he admitted, “I did kill Debbie.” Bianca, furious, screamed at him and threatened to call the police, saying Sonia would be freed immediately. But as she went to make the call, Reiss grabbed her phone and smashed it with a computer hard drive.
Bianca insisted she would still report him, but Reiss manipulated her, convincing her that no one would believe her and that Sonia would be fine in prison. He then played on her emotions by sharing a sob story about finding Debbie after her stroke and the death of her brother Billy.
After some manipulation, Bianca reluctantly agreed not to call the police. Reiss claimed he still had the pillow he used to kill Debbie, and they drove to a storage unit to retrieve it. Before leaving, Bianca secretly armed herself with a candlestick from Dot’s collection, all while Martin watched from across the Square.
When they arrived at the storage unit, Bianca was horrified to find a soundproofed room filled with Debbie’s belongings. As she demanded the pillow, Reiss locked the door and revealed there was no pillow. He then brandished chains and a blanket, charging at her. Bianca tried to defend herself with the candlestick.
The episode ended on a tense note, leaving viewers wondering if Reiss has claimed yet another victim—and whether Debbie was his first. Meanwhile, Sonia remains behind bars, awaiting her trial.
