Here's a first look at the aftermath of Lisa Fowler's EastEnders return as she tries her best to support her daughter Louise Mitchell.

Lisa made a surprise comeback in Friday night's cliffhanger, turning up to see Louise at the hospital after the horrific accident she suffered at the Walford High prom.

These brand new pictures offer a sneak peek at next week's must-see episodes, which are sure to be full of drama as the Mitchell family react to Lisa's return.

How will Louise (Tilly Keeper) feel about her mum turning up now? And how about the wider Mitchell clan? After removing herself from Louise's life, it's safe to say the reception for Lisa will be less than welcoming...

Lucy Benjamin, who plays Lisa, recently teased: "There's lots of drama, there's lots of twists and turns you don't see coming. I think there's lots of history and you'll see a lot of old Lisa being played out. You'll see that character there ready to come out and do some stuff the viewers recognise from before.

"It's good-old kitchen sink drama with the relationships people love. There's some great stuff with Phil and Lisa, and Lisa and Sharon. There's beautiful stuff with Sonia and Lisa. It's reminiscent of historical stuff, which is great."

Over on Hollyoaks, expect tense scenes as Ste Hay and Ryan Knight come face-to-face for the first time since Amy Barnes's death.

Ste (Kieron Richardson) remains the prime suspect in the Amy whodunit and is currently awaiting trial, but Ryan was recently given reason to doubt his guilt when DS Armstrong also started to look dodgy.

In a fortnight's time, we'll see concern grow for Ste from his loved ones as Harry Thompson discovers that he's stopped taking his HIV medication in prison.

A desperate Harry then immediately springs into action by booking a wedding for him and Ste, hoping to give his tormented boyfriend something to live for.

When Ste is later admitted to hospital with a chest infection, his sister Tegan Lomax has an idea of her own by convincing Ryan (Duncan James) to go and see him.

Tegan hopes that Ryan will start supporting Ste when she sees how broken he is, but is that overly optimistic?

Coming up on Coronation Street, Mary Taylor and Norris Cole resort to drastic measures to win the much-hyped Mr & Mrs competition.

The friends are elated when they receive a letter confirming that they're through to the final round, but their joy turns to horror when they realise that the organisers now want photos of milestone moments in their relationship.

Not prepared to give up on that round-the-world cruise too easily, Mary (Patti Clare) and Norris (Malcolm Hebden) confide in Bethany Platt and Craig Tinker about how they're desperate to win so they can visit Emily in Peru and Jude in South Africa.

Bethany (Lucy Fallon) and Craig (Colson Smith) soon get roped into helping Norris and Mary pose for staged photos, with Bethany's hair and make-up expertise ensuring that Mary looks different enough in each picture.

The bogus photos include Norris and Mary's "date night" at the Bistro and dressing up to see a Star Wars movie, but will it be enough to fool the competition organisers?

Meanwhile, Emmerdale's Cain Dingle runs the risk of ruining his relationship with Harriet Finch as he considers returning to the dark side.

Cain (Jeff Hordley) is keen to get revenge after it emerges that Harriet's attackers may never face justice for her recent stabbing.

Even though Harriet (Katherine Dow Blyton) identifies her attackers, it turns out that the guys in question have "alibis", which could help them to wriggle their way out of trouble.

When Cain appears to be about to take matters into his own hands, Harriet is very unimpressed as she doesn't want any revenge attacks happening in her name.

Cain is regretful when Harriet puts her foot down and makes her feelings clear, but will she end things with him for good?
