Hollyoaks UK Soap Opera TV Show Episode Recap

Tony catches con artist beaus Darren and Cindy in the act, and after being thrown out, Rhys sets up camp, and it all came to a head in Wednesday’s Hollyoak’s episode.

The episode kicked off with an angry Cindy making numerous mistakes at Il Gnosh, with an amused Dom looking on, lapping up her mistakes. Clearly hating his brother’s new gold-digging girlfriend, Dom teases Cindy behind the counter as Tony criticises her waitressing skills and coffee making. Cindy eventually throws down her apron and storms out with tears welling in her eyes, and a suddenly worried Tony looks on as she runs out of the restaurant. Later on, viewers saw Cindy return to the flat, to only open the door to Darren minutes later. Immediately, the pair began kissing… just as Tony was making his way to her flat too, armed with a bouquet of flowers to say sorry. Not thinking, Cindy opened the door with many buttons undone on her blouse as well as a bedraggled Darren inside the flat – as Tony sprints away, hurt, Cindy runs after him.

Over in the Uni dormitory halls, Hayley tells Rhys and Josh to leave her flat as the pair admit to drinking her wine and eating the pizza she had bought for a girl’s night in. Josh – hungover – then throws up in the sink, and the blonde beauty throws her boyfriend and his brother (who she actually clearly likes more than her boyfriend) out of the flat. Later on, Rhys pulls a somewhat romantic gesture out of the bag, and pitches a tent in the pub car park, fills it with fairy lights and a romantic meal and invites Hayley over. Their tent is later crushed by Josh and Gilly as they bundle onto it, laughing hysterically.

Will Tony take Cindy back, and will the con be back on, and will Hayley eventually admit her feelings for ex band mate Josh? All questions will be answered this summer, in the hottest UK Soap Hollyoaks!

Emmerdale Soap Gossip

Emmerdale newbie Faye and her son Ryan are wanted out of the village by Faye’s ex husband’s new love Natasha, and next week will show that all of Natasha’s sneaky efforts have been for nothing. On top of that, Lexi struggles when visiting Nicola and Carl causes more grief in his marriage.

Last week, viewers saw a fuming Natasha asking her husband Mark to get rid of his ex wife and son, whatever it takes. Natasha suggested that Mark contacted a business friend of his in Dubai in order to set up a job over there for his son, Ryan. That way, Ryan and mother Faye would leave Emmerdale and leave Natasha and Mark alone. Although reluctant, Mark followed his wife’s wishes and offered Ryan a job abroad. Next week, Emmerdale fans will see Faye approach Natasha and Mark in the Woolpack and ask them their motives behind offering her son the job.
Natasha tells Faye that the job abroad could be a fantastic new start for the pair but Faye sees right through her and tells her that she and Ryan aren’t going anywhere. Natasha is growing more and more desperate, but will she ever succeed in ridding of the pair from Emmerdale?

Over at the local hospital, Nicola and her baby are doing well, and Lexi drops by to visit. As Nicola coos over her baby, Lexi is clearly struggling, and when Carl turns up and starts mollycoddling the baby, Lexi screams at him that she wants a baby, but Carl ignores her and walks out. How long can Carl keep ignoring his marriage issues and how far will Lexi go in order to get a child?

Drama reaches an ultimate high in Emmerdale this summer, and fans will not want to miss a second of the soap action.

Home and Away Soap Gossip

Monday’s episode of Home and Away is set to get pulses racing and mouths falling open as Home and Away teens are put in danger with a ready to explode bomb.

Viewers saw Trey strap a bomb to the school bus last week, in revenge to how everyone has been treating him. The bus load of Summer Bay students begin to grow worried when Trey announces the situation. He tells the bus full of worried faces that they should have just accepted his apologies, but because they didn’t forgive him, he has wired a bomb that is set to detonate. The bus is in uproar, but Trey flashes an evil smile and jumps from the bus, warning the students that if they get off or if the weight of the bus decreases, the bomb will explode.

Students chatter in panic, and many suggest that he’s lying and he is just scare-mongering, so John announces he’s going to get off the bus and check for a bomb. Kirsty tries to stop him, reminding him of Trey’s warning, but Xavier is just as unconvinced and walks off the bus to check. He then returns, horrified, to see a bomb strapped to the bus, exactly where Trey stated and he reveals the fact to the rest of the bus who are in utter uproar. Trying to keep everyone calm, John and Kirsty speak to everyone calmly to reassure them, but after Kirsty finds Trey’s diary, she too is overwhelmed with panic when she realises he had been planning it for weeks. With just one hour to go until the bomb detonates, will the bus load of Summer Bay residents survive this horrific revenge?
