Soapland might still be running on a reduced schedule but June is shaping up to be another big month, with secrets revealed, life-changing dilemmas and some very special episodes.
Here's our guide to some of the biggest storylines that will be airing over the next few weeks.
1. Carla is visited by a ghost from her past (Coronation Street)
Carla Connor will be taking centre stage in one of Corrie's biggest stories throughout June, when her past returns to haunt her in Weatherfield.
Corrie producer Iain MacLeod has confirmed new details of Carla's storyline, which will see mental health struggles revisited when a secret about the time she went missing is exposed.
Fans will have to keep on watching next month to find out more, but the revelation is set to cause a big bump in the road for her relationship with Peter Barlow.
Teasing the twist, Iain said: "We meet two people we've not seen before, who emerge from Carla's mental health story. In the present, somebody that's currently in the show elsewhere reveals their true colours. That's a bit cryptic, but I don't want to give too much away."
What to Read Next
2. Belle and Jamie's affair is exposed (Emmerdale)
Emmerdale is lining up a game-changing few weeks in Belle and Jamie's affair plot as Andrea decides to fight back.
Andrea's hopes to win over Jamie came crashing down around her this week, when she realised that her husband was still pursuing his forbidden fling with Belle.
After teaming up with Leyla, Andrea will publicly expose Belle and Jamie's betrayal to everyone in The Wallpack, but it's what happens next that really changes everything.
That's because Andrea is set to disappear without a trace shortly after exacting her revenge – leaving Jamie utterly panic-stricken as he tries to find locate her and their daughter Millie. But where does Andrea go and what does her revenge plan entail next? There's only one way to find out.
3. Ben's big battle (EastEnders)
Ben will be taking centre stage in tomorrow night's special EastEnders episode (June 1), which will focus on his hearing loss story and be told entirely from his point of view.
The scenes will feature limited audio, fractured sentences and subtitles as Ben navigates his way through a difficult day – and his hit by a major new curveball in the process.
Despite being banned from attending the risky job with Phil, Ben's suspicions get the better of him and he ends up joining his dad on it anyway. But when the situation gets out of hand, an alarming discovery will knock Ben for six.
Fans will have to tune in to find out exactly how the story pans out, but we can confirm that Ben will be facing more difficulties in the aftermath, much to the concern of his boyfriend Callum.
4. Kyle's struggles continue (Hollyoaks)
Kyle's sad struggles will be intensifying next month, as he becomes more isolated than ever before. Up until this point, Kyle has found a much-needed support network in Darren Osborne – who is also experiencing his own battle with depression.
Upcoming scenes will see Darren contemplate cutting ties with Kyle following some advice from his partner Mandy, who urges him to focus on getting better himself.
Viewers will have to wait and see whether Darren really does turn his back on Kyle when they need each other the most, but the story will be playing a pivotal role throughout June.
5. David fights for Shona (Coronation Street)
Shona returned to the show this month, having lost her memories of David – and her life in Weatherfield – following the Christmas Day shooting incident.
Upcoming episodes will see Shona make the positive decision to move in with Roy Cropper, giving David ample opportunity to spend more time with her.
We already know that David's long-term plan will involve winning her back, and episodes throughout June will see their fractured love story take centre stage.
The good news, though, is that a happy ending has been strongly suggested – with a second wedding possibly on the cards at some point later in the year, too.
6. Sharon's big decision (EastEnders)
Sharon has a challenging few weeks ahead, as she's forced to face up to some big realities about her baby son Kayden.
With Karen preparing to leave Walford with Kayden in tow, a torn Sharon is aware that it's now or never when it comes to retracting her earlier decision to give him up.
Having just reunited with Phil, who is not the youngster's father, Sharon is acutely aware that she can't have it all. But will she choose Phil or her son?
7. Cher makes her mark (Hollyoaks)
Sylver's life is about to change forever when his daughter Cher crash-lands in his life. Hollyoaks has cast newcomer Bethany Hare in the role of Sylver's long-lost child, whose first scenes aired last week.
Upcoming episodes will see Sylver come face to face with the youngster, paving the way for some new fireworks in his relationship with Mercedes.
Although Cher's arrival will naturally rock Sylver and Mercedes to the core (especially due to this one rather big lie he's told), David Tag – who plays Sylver – hinted to Digital Spy that there could be a happy ending eventually.
8. The Dales in lockdown (Emmerdale)
With Emmerdale due to run out of new episodes in June, some resourceful thinking from production has now ensured it won't be going off air at all. Yay. Last week, cast and crew headed back to film a series of six special "lockdown" episodes, which will feature a number of the show's popular characters living through the pandemic.
Sam and Lydia, Cain and Aaron, Mandy and Vinny, Marlon, Al and Ellis, Nicola and Jimmy and Chas and Paddy will all be appear in the two or three-hander specials as they experience the trials and tribulations of lockdown.
Although further story details are currently under wraps, Emmerdale's regular scriptwriter Sharon Marshall has been dropping a few spoilers on This Morning, teasing that the lockdown situation will be particularly testing for newlyweds Lydia and Sam – who have only recently tied the knot.
9. Sally vs Geoff (Coronation Street)
Corrie will hint at evil Geoff's downfall next month, when his daughter-in-law Sally Metcalfe turns against him.
Upcoming episodes will see Sally realise that Geoff can't be trusted, after finding out that he slept with prostitutes during his marriage to Yasmeen.
With Sally's husband Tim convinced that this would give Yasmeen motive to want his dad dead, Sally is far less sure and begins to voice her suspicions that Geoff isn't telling the full truth. Could Yasmeen have found a much-needed ally in Sally?
10. Tiffany and Keegan reach breaking point (EastEnders)
Poor Keegan was left devastated this week, when his business dreams came crashing down after his van was vandalised.
The aftermath of Keegan's latest setback will see him decide to move away with his mum Karen in upcoming episodes, raising a big question mark over his future with Tiffany.
With Tiffany keen to fight for their marriage, it's clear heartbreak could await when she hears about Keegan's plans. Can they get back on track or is it curtains for the young couple?
11. Jordan's dangerous love triangle (Hollyoaks)
Bad boy Jordan has been having his cake and eating it lately, having shacked up with the Lomax family – while secretly expanding his drug operations in the village.
Jordan is currently romancing a smitten Peri, but is also eying up her mum Leela – with the complex love triangle set to hot up next month. And we've got a feeling this isn't going to end well…
Speaking to Digital Spy about the story twist, Ruby O'Donnell – who plays Peri – said: "It's a total betrayal of trust, isn't it? We don't know what their motives are for being together or what Jordan's real motives really are, but Peri will be fuming. She won't be happy at all."
