The soaps serve up more high drama next week, with shocking developments and catastrophic discoveries made across the genre, as confirmed in my new spoilers.
Emmerdale sees Tom King’s violence discovered by a number of villagers, leaving them concerned about the absence of Belle Dingle.
Coronation Street, meanwhile, sees Toyah Battersby receive her test results, while EastEnders focuses on Reiss Colwell who takes shocking action and Linda Carter struggles as Dean Wicks’ plea hearing arrives.
Over in Hollyoaks, a bomb threat leaves Warren Fox on tenterhooks while Lucas Hay and Dillon Ray continue to impress Tom Cunningham.
And as for the residents of Ramsay Street, Neighbours sees Susan Kennedy make a shocking move in a bid to get alone time with Karl, but let’s just say that it backfires quite dramatically!
For all this and more you’re in the right place, so let’s take a look at next week’s soapy action, shall we?
