EastEnders’ Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer) takes action to cheer up a struggling Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy) as the day of Reiss Colwell’s (Jonny Freeman) funeral approaches next week.

Twisted killer Reiss was killed in the aftermath of the Queen Vic explosion last month, shortly after his crimes had been exposed to his horrified fiancée Sonia.

However, all these events begin to catch up with her next week, and it becomes clear to Bianca she is not coping well.

She remains resolute in her decision not to attend Reiss’ funeral, which Bianca has concerns about.

Bianca then attempts to raise her spirits with an impromptu baby shower at Harry’s Barn.
