'Enders return, Corrie dog shock, E'dale lies, 'Oaks rampage

EastEnders welcomes back Jane Beale next month as she makes a surprise reappearance on Albert Square following her time away.

The build-up to Jane's return begins when Bobby goes looking for her, leaving Ian (Adam Woodyatt) frantic with worry as he has no idea where his son has gone.

Hours later, Ian arrives home after searching for the youngster and is shocked to find Bobby there. However, Bobby hasn't come back alone as Jane has brought him home and is livid with Ian for letting him run off.

An EastEnders insider commented: "Ian can't believe that Jane is back on the Square. She is not impressed with Ian's parenting or his relationship with Mandy.

"Jane insists that Bobby should come and live with her while Ian is going through his apparent mid-life crisis. What will Ian do?"

In real life, Laurie Brett is reprising her role as Jane for a short stint after taking time off for maternity leave.


These scenes air on Tuesday, November 8 at 7.30pm on BBC One.

Over on Coronation Street, Chesney Brown receives some sad news in the coming days as he learns that his beloved dog Schmeichel is seriously ill.

After hearing the shock diagnosis from the vet, Chesney (Sam Aston) refuses to accept that Schmeichel is dying and vows that he won't allow his pet to be put to sleep.

Instead, Chesney insists on an expensive operation to prolong Schmeichel's life, but it's a procedure that he can't realistically afford with bills piling up and the arrival of his baby to prepare for.

Back home, Katy (Georgia May Foote) is concerned about rent arrears and panics further when she and Chesney receive a letter which threatens them with eviction. Chesney is keen to put his dog first, but can he continue to do so?

Coming up in Emmerdale, the village begins to gossip as Debbie and Andy announce that they're back together.

As fans already know, next week's episodes see Debbie (Charley Webb) and Andy (Kelvin Fletcher) decide to have a saviour sibling to help their daughter Sarah, who needs a bone marrow transplant as she is seriously ill.

As part of the plan, Debbie and Andy have to pretend that they're a couple in order to have the IVF treatment required for the 'designer baby'. Soon afterwards, they realise that they'll also have to lie to the villagers to avoid being found out.

Going ahead with the plan, Debbie arrives at the pub with Andy and announces to Pearl and Edna that they're an item and will be trying for another baby for Sarah's sake.

As Debbie makes the announcement, Andy's clearly more uncomfortable about the situation than her. Will Andy, Debbie, Alicia and Cameron be able to keep up this pretence?

Meanwhile, Hollyoaks' Brendan Brady goes berserk next month as he remains in prison.

Even though serial killer Silas (Jeff Rawle) has struck again, it seems that the authorities are in no hurry to release Brendan, who was wrongly accused of the village's murders earlier this year.

To make matters worse, Brendan (Emmett Scanlan) is still being targeted by fellow prisoners on the orders of Warren (Jamie Lomas), who is desperate to get him to sign the club over.

In a dramatic moment behind bars, Brendan finally loses control and starts trashing his cell. He then needs to be physically restrained by the prison guards.

Unfortunately for Brendan, it seems that his furious outburst has only made matters worse, as Cheryl later learns that he's being denied visitors as punishment for his actions. Can Brendan survive his prison ordeal and will he ever have a chance to get revenge against Warren?














These scenes air on Tuesday, November 8 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.

Over on Doctors, Zara and Mrs Tembe become Letherbridge's answer to Cagney and Lacey next month as they go head-to-head with criminals.

Zara (Elisabeth Dermot Walsh) is furious with garage owner Chris and his mechanic Wayne when she believes they are overcharging her for repairs on her car. Later, she goes to Mrs Tembe for help and the unlikely duo head to the garage to sort out the situation.

As the pair watch the business from afar, they notice that a lot of cars with foreign plates are going into the garage. They initially suspect that the men are selling parts of stolen vehicles, but soon discover that the criminal activity they're involved in is something else entirely.

Realising they've been busted, the men grab a scared Zara - but Mrs Tembe (Lorna Laidlaw) snatches a wrench and threatens to use it unless they let Zara go. Can Zara and Mrs Tembe escape this situation safely?
