Yahoo News EastEnders Keegan revenge and 9 other big stories ahead
Struggling to keep track with the constant stream of soap spoilers? Fear not, as every Monday Digital Spy picks out the biggest and best storylines hitting your screens in the week ahead.
1. EastEnders: Keegan makes his nastiest move yet (Monday at 8pm on BBC One)
Walford's newest bad boy Keegan Baker continues to make his mark this week by swearing "revenge" on Bex Fowler. OK, so poor Bex hasn't actually done anything wrong, but when has that ever stopped Keegan from causing mischief and misery?
Keegan's beef with Bex crops up after he sees her getting close to her American boy Preston and vows to make her pay for moving on from Shakil so quickly. Even Shakil is horrified when he discovers what Keegan has planned, but that still doesn't stop the bully boy from making his nasty move.
We can't give away what Keegan has planned for now, but it's fair to say that Bex's whole world is turned upside down as a result – and she knows exactly who's to blame.
2. Coronation Street: Sinead's surprise pregnancy (Friday at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV)
Sinead hopes that her dramas are finally over this week when her jilted ex Chesney kindly offers her a hotel voucher as a peace offering. So she can breathe a sigh of relief and move on with her life, right? Wrong. As Sinead gets busy looking at possible dates to enjoy the romantic break with her new beau Daniel, she suddenly comes to a shocking realisation as she looks at the calendar.
No, she hasn't missed a distant relative's birthday – looking at the dates helps Sinead to suddenly realise that she must be pregnant, so she rushes straight to her auntie Beth for someone to confide in. Although Sinead is hoping to keep it all secret for now, it's already too late when Daniel stumbles across her used pregnancy test at the flat. Will anyone in Soapland ever dispose of those things more discreetly? And more importantly, how will Daniel feel about the baby bombshell?
3. Emmerdale: Aaron and Robert risk exposing their relationship at the prison (Wednesday at 7pm on ITV)
Aaron Dingle has decided to hide his sexuality behind bars as he fears being targeted by the homophobic inmates, but concealing the truth about his life on the outside may not be as easy as he expected.
We'll see Robron briefly reunited when Robert pays a visit later this week, and they're both on the same page about keeping the nature of their relationship a secret. Despite this, Emmerdale has teased that an intimate moment between the popular supercouple could end up being clocked by one of the other prisoners. There's just no hiding that chemistry! But if it does happen, could this make Aaron more of a target behind bars?
4. Hollyoaks: Marnie's revenge revealed (Tuesday at 6.30pm on Channel 4)
So, how will the ever-formidable Marnie make Mac and Lisa pay for having an affair behind her back and causing the death of her beloved son Nathan? We saw Marnie discover the truth in the confessions booth at Nathan's funeral last week, and now the big question is what she'll do next. There's bound to be hell to pay, right?
We always thought Marnie might be one to play the long game and plan a deliciously evil revenge scheme out for months... but what's the point in dragging it out? Tuesday's episode (or Monday on E4) reveals all, and it's certainly one that you won't want to miss.
5. Neighbours: Toadie and Sonya drift further apart (Wednesday at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5)
If you're a big fan of the Rebecchis on Neighbours, it's really not your week. First up, Toadie has to 'fess up to Dr Karl about how he's starting to feel tempted around evil impostor Fake Dee.
Then just when it looks like that might be resolved (for now), Toadie is fuming to see Sonya looking cosier than ever with Mark Brennan as they continue to bond over their surrogacy arrangement. Could this test Toadie's own loyalty to Sonya as a result?
6. EastEnders: Kim makes a huge discovery (Thursday at 7.30pm and Friday at 8pm on BBC One)
Comedy queen Kim has something serious to ponder this week when she hears Denise speaking to Shirley about the adoption and the father of her baby. Although Kim doesn't figure everything out straight away (where would be the fun in that?), their conversation is enough to make her realise that Shirley knows who the father is and that he's a local guy.
Since Denise barely ever leaves the Square, the father being local isn't exactly a massive surprise, but it's enough to get Kim thinking and it's not long before she comes to a shocking conclusion about the baby's dad. Will she get it right?
7. Coronation Street: Robert gets his chance with Michelle (Friday at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV)
We're not really sure that Robert Preston is the right guy for Michelle, especially so soon after her devastating discovery over Steve and Leanne's baby. But it seems Corrie may be going there anyway, with Robert keen to steal (ahem, "support") Michelle following her marriage breakdown.
After days of rows and recriminations with the McDonalds, Michelle is relieved to have some time out when Robert comes to see her armed with tequila. As they continue to bond, could it lead to more? Or could this be one soap pairing that actually just stay friends?
8. Emmerdale: Rakesh gets kidnapped (Tuesday at 7pm on ITV)
Who'd want to kidnap Rakesh? He hasn't even started any fires lately. Well, the suspect list is actually longer than you might think. When Rakesh and Priya go public with their recent reunion, the news doesn't go down well with the Sharma family. David is also unhappy when he finds out that Priya is now planning to move abroad with his young daughter Amba, thanks to Rakesh landing a new job overseas.
Nicola and Jimmy are also still holding a grudge against Rakesh for last year's fire at Mill Cottage, putting them firmly in the frame too. But whoever's to blame for snatching Rakesh and holding him hostage, it's only the beginning of the drama in store as the kidnap situation leads to a surprise stunt...
9. Hollyoaks: Leela gets a stalker (Thursday and Friday at 6.30pm on Channel 4)
Looks like there'll be no let-up in the drama stakes for Leela after her recent brush with death at the hands of Killer Cameron. A new nightmare for her begins when she gets a threatening note in the post, before things get even more sinister as someone watches her when she sleeps.
Leela jumps to the conclusion that it's Cameron (er, isn't he in prison?) and then Zack is next to come under suspicion. But who's the real culprit?
10. Home and Away: Nate and Tori hit the rocks (Wednesday at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5)
If the Morgans were hoping for love and understanding from the local community once their secret came out, they can think again. (Maybe they'd have better luck moving to Erinsborough...)
When the case against the syndicate goes to court and the Morgans' witness protection secret gets splashed all over the front pages, there's a very mixed response. While some are supportive, it's clear that not everyone is pleased with the Morgans' dark connections when the restaurant is trashed by vigilantes.
Nate isn't exactly jumping for joy either, realising just how much Tori has kept from him and fearing there's no trust in their relationship. Could this be the end for them already?
