The spooky season brings high drama in the land of soaps, as confirmed in my brand new spoilers, with unexpected developments all across the genre, making for unsettling viewing.
Emmerdale’s Tom King faces some serious accusations after Nicola becomes concerned about son Carl and how he’s reacting when in the company of his cousin.
Meanwhile over in Coronation Street, DS Swain has some explaining to after daughter Betsy makes a discovery, while EastEnders lines up a truly terrifying Halloween, with The Six’s fate up in the air once again as devilish Nish Panesar closes in.
Trust me, it’s intense!
In Hollyoaks, Frankie Osborne struggles in the wake of news about abuser JJ, with best friend Lucas Hay offering her support while Neighbours legend Paul Robinson makes an upsetting discovery of his own about ex-wife Terese Willis.
