SHOCKING NEWS!!! EastEnders airs major Sonia and Reiss twist in early

iPlayer release EastEnders has aired a major twist involving Sonia Fowler and

Reiss Colwell following their arrest in the show’s latest episode. This week,

the couple’s engagement party was interrupted by the police, who arrested them both for Debbie’s murder. While Reiss is guilty of the crime, Sonia is oblivious and doesn’t know what her fiancé has done. In today’s episode, Sonia and Reiss were questioned separately at the station, while the Square speculated about what they might have done back at the pub.

Sonia was reminded that she visited Debbie on the night that she died, and the nurse on duty said she had entered her room without signing in.

This makes her the only person placed at the scene, because Reiss managed to commit the crime without being spotted by anyone.

When asked about his movements the night of Debbie’s death, Reiss said he was at Peggy’s for a meeting with Phil and Sharon and then stayed there until late in the evening. But Reiss brought up that his phone would also show where he was – viewers might remember that he conveniently left his phone at Peggy’s, presumably to cover his tracks.

Meanwhile, Martin told Phil about the situation and after he reminded Phil that Sonia previously saved Ben’s life, Phil pulled some strings to get her a good solicitor.

The solicitor told Sonia he would only be representing her and suggested that Reiss could have killed Debbie and might throw Sonia under the bus.
