Bit of soap goss

EastEnders

Even Peggy’s terrifying yell of ‘get outta my pub’ isn’t enough to scare off a gang of thugs who storm the Queen Vic this week.

Mum-to-be Honey finds herself caught up in the violence and has to be rushed to hospital after she’s knocked to the floor. Does this mean a second spell of baby heartache ahead for Billy and Honey? Please say it isn’t so as we could do with a bit of cheer since the festive season is just around the corner.

Also this week, Steven tries to repair things between himself and Jane but finds himself the most unpopular person in Walford (yes, even more unpopular than his dad Ian – and that takes some doing!). Jane doesn’t want to hear his apologies and Ian tells his son he doesn’t want to see him again. Thankfully his grandma Pat is kind enough to take him in. What a lucky chap.

Coronation Street

It’s hard to believe that Rosie Webster used to be such a lovely girl as these days she seems intent on becoming the Street’s next Elsie Tanner. Then again, considering her parents Kevin and Sally have clocked up more than half a dozen affairs between them perhaps that’s not so surprising after all.

This week the street’s newest siren is causing trouble at college and love rat teacher John starts to realise he’s clearly bitten off more than he can chew by getting mixed up with the teenager. His troubles don’t end there as his girlfriend Fiz is starting to get suspicious – but does she realise which Webster wench poses the biggest threat to her relationship with John?

Meanwhile, Rosie’s dad Kevin faces temptation once again when a drunken Claire makes a pass at him – will he be able to resist or will we be adding another tryst to the Websters’ tally?

Elsewhere in Corrie this week, Jamie rekinds his romance with pregnant Violet and you don’t have to be Mystic Meg to know that father-to-be Sean is going to be less than pleased. There may be trouble ahead…

Emmerdale

If you’re a follower of Emmerdale then you’ll know that faithfulness isn’t part of the vocabulary in the Dales. This week it’s Paul who finds himself straying when he ends up in bed with Grayson after a night on the tiles.

He’s upset afterwards when Grayson reveals he wants nothing more than a one night stand and, racked with guilt, Paul confesses all to his boyfriend Jonny. Does Jonny offer him a sympathetic shoulder to cry on? Does he ‘eck as like! Paul’s thrown out and Jonny packs his bags – is this the end for the pair?

Another villager struggling to understand the concept of standing by her man is Debbie. The Dingle lass finds herself being wined and dined by Sean and just when she’s thinking he could be the one for her, Eli throws a spanner in the works. Who will she choose?
