Peggy and Archie back on, David punches Nathan

"No! Stop it! What the hell are you doing?! Don't do it!"

... will be what plenty of EastEnders fans will be shouting at their television sets in a fortnight's time when - despite enduring a truly disastrous wedding day, asking her son Phil (Steve McFadden) to kill him and her belief that he tried to set fire to the pub - Queen Vic landlady Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor) decides to start seeing husband Archie (Larry Lamb) again in secret.

They continue to keep their meetings under wraps but one person on the Square discovers what they're up to. Will she blow their cover? Or will the loved-up pair manage to keep their rekindled romance in stealth mode?


These scenes air on Monday, November 9 at 8pm on BBC One.

With Leyla (Roxanne Ghawam-Shahidi) having told David (Matthew Wolfenden) the truth about sleeping with Nathan (Lyndon Ogbourne) in a bid to ensure his silence, David's seething.

His initial concern and disdain over Nathan blackmailing her for stealing cash from the Home Farm shop turns to anger when she goes on to admit that he slept with him to keep him quiet. Disgusted by her actions David walks out, leaving a distraught Leyla worrying about their relationship.

The following day, Leyla informs Nathan that she came clean with David but despite Nathan's initial thoughts that she's bluffing, he's somewhat rattled by her announcement.

Nathan quickly turns Nasty with Leyla and just as he does, David turns up and punches Nathan in the face, knocking him to the ground. Leyla's seemingly happy by David's gesture but he's quick to point out that he didn't do it for her - he did it for himself.






These scenes air on Tuesday, November 10 at 7pm on ITV1.

Meanwhile, over on Coronation Street Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) goes to collect husband John (Graeme Hawley) from prison as his sentence comes to an end. They head out to have a picnic but their return to the cobbles ruins their mood - especially when Sally (Sally Whittaker) spots John carrying Fiz over the threshold of the house.

Fiz and John finally manage to bed down for the evening, but their first morning together living at No. 5 as man and wife gets off to a dim start when they wake to find their windows have been painted black...




These scenes air on Wednesday, November 11 at 7.30pm and Thursday, November 12 at 8.30pm on ITV1.

And finally to Hollyoaks, where Zak (Kent Riley) knocks a cup of coffee over Michaela's (Hollie-Jay Bowes) laptop, Duncan (Dean Aspen) gets a chest wax from Jacqui (Claire Cooper) and Theresa (Jorgie Porter) finally makes up with Anita (Saira Choudhry) after learning about her apparent eating disorder.






These scenes air on Monday, November 9 and Tuesday, November 10 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
