BBC EastEnders fans predict death twist for soap legend after shock secret is exposed

Things are not looking good for Reiss Colwell but, according to EastEnders viewers, they look set to be deadly for one character.

Walford icon Bianca Jackson portrayed by Patsy Palmer has been nothing short of critical of Sonia Fowler’s beau and has been pointing out his discrepancies since she first returned to Albert Square, convinced her sister deserved better, particularly as she was expecting their first baby.

In a devastating twist, Sonia (played by Natalie Cassidy) recently found out she was never actually pregnant but the setback wasn’t enough to stop her from thinking about another round of IVF.

On Monday (June 10, 2024), the beloved nurse urged Reiss (Jonny Freeman) to gather up the funds necessary, which left him in a tricky position as Sonia had no clue her other half stole the money they’d used for their first IVF journey from his comatose wife, Debbie without her consent.

A desperate Reiss moved heaven and earth to get the money necessary to keep Sonia happy and sought out Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick) to sell him a car, which turned out to be faulty. In another attempt to get the IVF money ready, Reiss then reached out to Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace), making out to her she’d forgotten to pay him for a previous job – but she quickly rumbled what he’d been up to.

Frustrated, Jay and Kat complained about Reiss in The Vic, in front of a dismayed Bianca who was set on finding out what he was really up to. Bianca was led straight to the hospital, where she spotted Reiss letting Debbie know he would be using the rest of her money, making the most of her comatose state to steal it all from her.

BBC One viewers at home took to X, otherwise known as Twitter, certain that Bianca could be killed off as one penned: “Evil Reiss is the move. Less of this embarrassing cringe nerdiness, make him bludgeon our Bianca with his tuba.” Another pleaded: “Reiss if you have a dark side that everyone believes you have please please please kill Bianca and give us some freedom.”

And while a third TV watcher didn’t believe that Reiss would kill Bianca, they were sure his secret would cause a massive rift between her and sister Sonia – and it could motivate Bianca from leaving Walford to support her daughter Whitney Dean in Milton Keynes. The question is – Will she tell Sonia and will Sonia believe her? This will lead to Bianca’s exit now. Sonia won’t believe her and will tell Bianca to leave Walford to support Whitney”, the fan wrote.

Another viewer exclaimed: “OMG Bianca heard everything Reiss was saying to Debbie”, as one final fan quipped: “I think Reiss needs to contact his friends from MI9 to take care of Bianca.” Patsy Palmer is said to have only reprised her role amid Whitney Dean’s exit and has been keeping busy since she returned. She most notably begged for her job back at the café before bedding Junior Knight.

She also kept Zack Hudson and Lauren Branning’s affair a secret, until wayward teen Britney told Whitney everything. But could Bianca be set for a brutal end?
