Reunions, revenge, returns and revelations – just your average week in soap coming up! Coronation Street airs a big discovery for evil Pat Phelan that could tip the killer over the edge while in EastEnders, Martin and Stacey Fowler’s feud has huge repercussions while Vincent Hubbard makes a big decision.

That’s not all, either. There’s also a risky operation, a drugs deal, a harsh warning, a surprise arrival, some blackmail, a thirst for revenge, a final farewell, a dumping, a romance, a drunken pass and a proposal.
