Bianca Jackson got some important news on EastEnders following the departure of her father, David Wicks.
Bianca has been in the thick of the drama ever since her return to Walford earlier this year, with the character correctly deducing that Reiss Colwell – the partner of her step-sister, Sonia – murdered his wife Debbie.
In her bid to have Reiss face his crimes – and free a falsely accused Sonia from prison in the process – Bianca’s behaviour has become increasingly erratic, leading several other residents to doubt her allegations.

This led close friend Kat to suggest that Bianca should attend an appointment with the local GP, a sentiment that was echoed by David during his brief stint in Albert Square last week before he departed once again.
In Monday’s (October 14) episode, a typically fiery Bianca gave Junior, who was struggling in his own bid to continue his affair with Cindy, some harsh words in the café. Bianca later spoke with Freddie, who was busy with his new hobby of birdwatching.
She expressed her wish to avoid the appointment altogether, though the teenager reminded her that she had a duty to attend and that he would tag along with her. Once there, Bianca detailed how she could often become fixated on issues, with other occasions seeing her mind wander.
Freddie remarked that he thought Bianca had ADHD, with the doctor explaining that she did exhibit symptoms that were consistent with the condition. He did, however, caution that it could take months to get an official diagnosis, adding that private healthcare would cost thousands of pounds.
Freddie could also be set to become involved with another storyline, with his birdwatching storyline – which has seen him place a microphone outside Beale’s Eels – set to have ramifications for Junior and Cindy.
