There is drama aplenty in the world of soap operas as the holiday season draws near, with some unpleasant and quite frankly shocking moments planned for this week.
After another setback in the hunt for Chloe Harris, Mackenzie Boyd of Emmerdale suffers trauma, while Linda Carter of EastEnders is appalled by what Dean Wicks does next.
In Coronation Street, Carter Shepherd, the head teacher of Hollyoaks, raises concerns as Evelyn Plummer, who has been locked in the shop by the evil Terry, finds herself in grave danger.
Is he alright, though?
While this is going on, Neighbours keeps serving up surprises, with Byron Stone and Mackenzie Hargreaves turning to one another for solace when depressing news reaches Ramsay Street.
Let’s get started. Metro has you covered for all of this and more, providing an early peek at all the drama to come this week.
