For a detailed breakdown of what’s to come in all the aforementioned soaps, I’ve got you covered so let’s take a closer look!
EastEnders
1. Vinny is frustrated as Nish sidelines him ahead of a business deal. Suki offers him some advice, urging him to be bold to win his dad’s trust and Vinny does just that, gatecrashing the meeting as he works hard to charm the potential client. Priya, however, sabotages things, which actually proves beneficial for Vinny in his plot to gain Nish’s respect.
2. Callum is saddened when Kathy, Lexi and Ian plan a trip to America to visit Ben as he cannot get the time off work. Johnny therefore resolves to cheer him up but Callum is left frustrated when he misses a call from Ben. Honey encourages him to seize the day and enjoy Johnny’s company but he’s left mortified when Billy claims that it didn’t take him too long to move on.
3. Kat is at her wits’ end with Tommy’s bad behaviour, so Alfie recommends that she take a holiday. But Kat insists that she needs to be there to handle Tommy. Things get out of hand when Tommy is rough with the twins, and she’s forced to step in.
4. Priya is determined to be by Nugget’s side for his next dialysis session but Ravi stands in her way. As a result, she teams up with Denzel to sneak, which leads to a big argument. Determined to get the upper hand, Priya lures Nish to the Minute Mart before handcuffing him, demanding that he films a video retracting his lie about them sleeping together.
5. Chelsea and Bernie are horrified to discover that Gray is selling No.1 when a For Sale sign goes up outside the property.

Despite this, he makes his own way to hospital and, as the scan gets underway, no baby can be found. Liam reckons that Ella has lied to him about the baby but is this really the case?
14. With Kim away, Rose takes great delight in taking over at Home Farm. Ruby, however, warns her that her time is up and she must complete her mission. With Kim distracted and out of the picture, Rose moves in for the kill, planting a kiss on Will’s lips – and he reciprocates. Will is adamant that it shouldn’t have happened but Rose is glad that it did – that is, until she gets a call from Ruby!
15. Kim knows there’s more to Rose’s presence than meets the eye and starts to quiz Rose’s dealer, determined to find out who is driving a wedge between her and her family. She knows full well that Rose is no mastermind and reckons Caleb might have something to do with it but soon enough, she points the finger at Ruby, with the two women having an almighty face-off.
