Reiss Colwell came face to face with Bianca Jackson who returned to the Square in bombshell scenes, but after another confrontation, she could be the one to expose him as a killer.
Debbie’s murder continues to wreak havoc in Albert Square but Reiss Colwell may soon face his downfall in EastEnders as Bianca Jackson is adamant he’s responsible.
Authorities believe Sonia Fowler killed a comatose Debbie in an attempt to cash in on her life insurance money with her partner, Reiss Colwell. Unbeknownst to anybody, however, the accountant played by Jonny Freeman actually smothered his wife with a pillow, cash-strapped and desperate to make Sonia happy.
Sonia has since been thrown behind bars, with Natalie Cassidy taking on a new project away from the BBC One soap, while Reiss continues to roam freely. And while residents of the Square are sure the nurse is innocent, there’s no stronger advocate than her sister, Bianca Jackson, to get her out of prison.
Actress Patsy Palmer reprised her role during this Monday’s instalment of the London-based programme, facing Reiss in the Queen Vic. This Tuesday (September 24, 2024), she was the first to put two and two together as she exposed him for murdering Debbie and framing her sister.

Bianca began her detective work upon her arrival in Walford, admitting she didn’t know Sonia had been in the slammer for several weeks until she was eventually told the news by their mother.
Back at No.25 with Reiss, Bianca started to grill him over why the police were so adamant on Sonia being guilty but, to her, nothing was adding up and Reiss’ nervous expression was enough confirmation he was the killer.
Ready for the truth to finally come to light to save a pregnant Sonia from prison, Bianca furiously confronted Reiss, backing him into a corner, before Martin Fowler (James Bye) got involved and saved Reiss from Bianca’s fury.
The market stall holder tried his to calm Bianca down but nothing could be done as she soon yelled out in the Square, shouting that Reiss was a murderer – before taking hold of a large rock, which she threw at Reiss’ car, breaking his windshield in a defying gesture.
Over on Twitter, now X, a multitude of viewers were pleased to see Bianca lash out at Reiss, as they are all aware he is the real killer. “Bianca you ICON”, one penned while another added: “IM SO GLAD BIANCA CLOCKED REISS.”
A third echoed: “Ugh I’m so glad Bianca is the only one who’s clocked it. Why has NO ONE else thought it could be Reiss?” Another thought this was setting the tone for what was to come as Bianca could be the one to expose Reiss and send him to prison. “oh Reiss is DONE! there’s no way he’s getting away with it especially with David coming back v soon. Bianca throwing a rock across the square I’m screaminggg.”
