āEastEndersā viewers were left shocked on Thursday (13 April), when Bex Fowlerās bullying storyline took a dark turn.
For months, the character has been suffering at the hands of fellow schoolgirls Madison and Alexandra, while her so-called friend Louise Mitchell has assisted them.
Then, in Thursdayās show, things took a seriously sinister turn, when Bex was tricked into eating faeces.
The scene saw Madison pretend that she had decided to stop making Bexās life hell, offering her a chocolate truffle as a peace offering.
However, when Bex bit into the gift, it became clear that it was not a truffle, and to make things worse, Alexandra and Louise were hiding and filming the whole thing.
As youād expect, many viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the storyline development:
There may be better times around the corner for Bex, as it was recently revealed that her mum, Sonia Fowler, is set to return to Walford.
While thereās no word yet on how long sheāll stick around for, Natalie Cassidyās character will be seen attempting to stop Bexās tormentors.
