Next week on EastEnders, viewers will witness a shocking turn of events as Sharon Watts, a well-known resident of Walford, falls victim to a sneaky con. It all starts when a desperate character, Reiss Colwell, finds himself in a tight financial situation. He is hit with a bill of £18,000 for his comatose wife Debbie's outstanding care fees.
As viewers may recall, Reiss has been struggling to come up with the money to pay for his partner Sonia Fowler's IVF treatment. In a bid to keep up with the payments for Debbie's care, Reiss has been draining money from her account. However, he falls behind on payments and is now stressed about finding a way to cover the shortfall.
At first, Sonia rejects the idea of getting a lodger to help with their financial troubles. But she assures Reiss that they will find a way to generate the necessary funds. Just when things seem hopeless, Sharon offers Reiss a glimmer of hope by offering him some work chasing her outstanding invoices.
Relieved, Reiss takes on the job and sees an opportunity to use some creative accounting to line his own pockets while collecting the money Sharon is owed. When Sharon pays him, she even throws in a bonus for doing the job at short notice. Reiss feels guilty for deceiving her, but he lies to Sonia that he now has enough money to pay the care bill.
However, with his debts still looming over him, Reiss wonders if he can keep up the charade or if he will have to resort to even more extreme measures to get the cash he needs. Will he be able to keep his deception a secret, or will he be caught in a web of lies? Don't miss these gripping episodes of EastEnders airing next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC Two, or catch them on iPlayer from 6am.
