EastEnders viewers are convinced Teddy Mitchell has an ulterior motive after appearing to help Reiss Colwell on Tuesday night, and it could lead to deadly scenes for one character

EastEnders viewers think they have rumbled Teddy Mitchell’s shocking agenda, and his plan against one or more residents on the Square.

It could lead to a shocking death on the BBC soap amid a feud threatening to boil over between two characters. Now, fans think the latest episode has hinted at fresh drama ahead thanks to a newcomer, who they say could secretly be up to no good.

Teddy appeared to step in to help Reiss on Tuesday, while he made a dig at him as he did. Fans know that Reiss is hiding some killer actions linked to his wife Debbie’s death, while he’s also in serious debt.

After encouraging Sharon Watts to invest in his new business scheme, which was a scam to raise some funds, he’s facing pressure from Phil Mitchell who wants to see results and cash. With Reiss not paying up, he’s demanded money from him or else – leading to violent scenes coming up on the show.

But fans think Reiss could face death on the soap, and a twist involving Teddy could lead to this. Teddy offered to give Phil the £2,000 cash Reiss was on his way to give him, with Reiss nervous about facing Phil.

Despite not having the guts to deliver it, Reiss did inform Teddy that the amount was what he owed and some extra cash too. Teddy made a comment about Reiss watching himself, before taking the money from him.

Given scenes ahead will show Phil lashing out at Reiss, fans have predicted a shocking and cruel twist that will see Teddy up to no good. Taking to social media, viewers shared a theory that Teddy will pocket the money or steal some of it, leaving Phil short-changed and angry with Reiss.

But could it end with Reiss being killed if he’s unable to pay up and if Teddy denies taking the money? One fan posted: “Reiss that wasn’t wise the new Mitchell guy going to steal the money.”

Another agreed: “Reiss you’ve kissed goodbye to two grand! Bad Karma,” as a third added: “Also with Phil set to threaten Reiss against next week over his investment – it looks Phil has either doubled the money or Reiss didn’t give Phil enough money tonight.” Another agreed: “I agree with those reasons or Teddy has secretly pocketed some of the cash making it look like Reiss did ‘a Fagin’ on Phil and screwed him over which would make sense.”
