BBC EastEnders Reiss Colwell’s d.e.a.t.h ‘sealed’ as fans ‘work out’ new revenge plot
EastEnders viewers are convinced that Reiss Colwell will be k.i.l.l.e.d off in a new revenge plot after learning that he m.u.r.d.e.r.e.d his wife Debbie and has been holding Bianca hostage
EastEnders fans are certain that Reiss Colwell, played by Jonny Freeman, is on the brink of being m.u.r.d.e.r.e.d as his web of lies unravels in a fresh revenge plot. As regular viewers of the BBC One soap will recall, the corrupt accountant took the life of his comatose wife Debbie last year to ease his financial woes.
Prior to committing the heinous act, Reiss had already depleted Debbie’s savings to finance IVF treatment with his new flame Sonia Fowler, portrayed by Natalie Cassidy. However, following a police probe, it was Sonia who found herself accused of m.u.r.d.er and has been held on remand ever since – all while expecting a baby.
Meanwhile, Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer) endeavoured to establish her sister Sonia’s innocence and subsequently discovered that Reiss was responsible for his wife’s d.e.a.t.h. She agreed to give Reiss time to flee before presenting evidence to the authorities, but he duped Bianca into a lock-up where she has been held captive ever since.
After weeks of confinement, Bianca also made an appearance as Reiss continues to keep her imprisoned until the trial concludes, reports the Manchester Evening News.
On Tuesday (January 14), Reiss made a rash decision and attempted to intimidate a witness at the care home where he k.i.l.l.e.d Debbie, potentially jeopardising Sonia’s court trial.
EastEnders enthusiasts reckon they’ve sussed out the endgame for Reiss’ reign of terror as they predict Martin Fowler will be the one who dishes out d.e.a.d.l.y revenge.
On social media platform X, a viewer speculated: “I’m calling it now, Martin is gonna k.i.l.l Reiss when all is found out about Bianca and Sonia #EastEnders @bbceastenders.”
Another fan expressed their disdain: “I’m sick of looking at Reiss’ face. I hope he has one of the most horrible deaths in #EastEnders history.”
A third fan made a direct plea: “See this weasel Reiss (however it’s spelt), can you lot k.i.l.l him please and thanks #EastEnders I’m really hoping that this week is the week of Reiss’s demise. It’s clear he’s feeling a little guilty for Sonia taking the fall over him.”
One viewer is eager for the upcoming drama: “Can’t wait for the fallout of this when the truth comes out about Debbie’s d.e.a.t.h #EastEnders”, while another is rooting for a rescue mission: “Martin really needs to rescue Sonia and Bianca #EastEnders.”
And yet another comment came in: “Reiss having a go at Martin! #EastEnders”, from an observant fan.
