Next week on Hollyoaks, Grace's big return ruffles feathers, while Jeremy faces the wrath of Martha and Mercedes has a dramatic labour.
Here's a full collection of the biggest stories coming up:
1. Grace returns
On Grace's return, she tells Freddie she needs to get him and Lexi out of the country.
She explains that she lied and said she was seriously ill, which is how she got out of prison.

What to Read Next
2. Dilly is suspicious
A terrified Maxine tells Jeremy to stay away from her following their altercation. He tries to make amends and he manages to win her round.
But when Maxine tells Dilly she is ready to give him another chance, Dilly tells her that she found a shirt of Jeremy's that's covered in blood.
3. Mercedes gives birth
Mercedes goes into labour while locked in Casa McQueen and, as Warren tries to get help, he has to deliver the twins himself.
With the hospital on the other end of the phone, Warren manages to deliver the first baby. But the second twin gets stuck, and Warren begs for help.
4. Scott goes missing
Freya reveals that Scott is missing and he was last seen having a row with Jeremy. Maxine is concerned that something is wrong, and she confides in Zoe and Pearl.
Meanwhile, at Jeremy's shed, Maxine can hear Scott's phone ringing, which raises alarm bells…
5. Lucas and Dillon take revenge
Tom gets Zoe to shut down Dillon and Lucas' business, so they take revenge and post the video of Tom falling in the paddling pool online.
In retaliation, Tom starts a poster campaign to discredit Lucas and Dillon's new business – which is selling drink cans.
6. Freddie's life is in the balance
At the hospital, Freddie has secondary drowning and is breathing through a ventilator. Misbah tells Grace he has sustained serious injuries.
Later Grace tells Cindy about her fake illness and Norma overhears. Grace promises Norma that Blue isn’t Freddie and suggests they work together.
But elsewhere, Rex has managed to get to Freddie – what will he do?
7. Jeremy is in danger
When Maxine confronts Jeremy about the blood-stained shirt, he is confused by her theories and explains that he simply cut himself while gardening.
But unknown to Jeremy, Martha is lying in wait in his shed.
8. Ro is disappointed
Tony and Diane continue to clash over Ro, as they prepare to visit the doctor together.
But the GP visit is disappointing as Ro is not taken seriously, and the GP tells him that stopping puberty is no longer an option.
They refer Ro to CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services), but warn there is a lengthy waiting list. The Hutchinsons sadly leave without the answers they are looking for.
9. The McQueens disapprove
The McQueens throw a surprise party for Mercedes later in the week but are appalled when she shows up with Warren in tow.
As they make it clear that they can't forgive Warren for Hunter's death, Mercedes begins to doubt her decision to stick with him.
10. Tom changes his mind
Liberty, who has just opened her own hanging baskets business, signs up Lucas and Dillon to work for her, thus proving Tom wrong.
Later, Tom has a change of heart and he offers Dillon and Lucas jobs.
11. Martha seeks revenge
Jeremy wakes up to discover he has been tied up and drugged by mum Martha, who tells him she warned him to stay away from the village.
Jeremy insists that Patrick is the bad twin, but Martha doesn't want to listen.
Sienna tells Dilly she thinks Jeremy's hiding something, and she doesn't know who to trust.
12. Darren catches JJ
JJ offers to help get Lexi ready, which makes both Frankie and Oscar uncomfortable.
He shouts at Oscar for having his missing football boots and he later tells Frankie he's scared of JJ.
Desperate to cover his tracks, JJ throws his football boots in the river, but Darren notices what he is doing.
13. Blue strikes again
Cindy offers Grace a place to stay on her return to the village, and she fills her in on the Blue situation.
Meanwhile, around the village and at the hospital, the mysterious Blue has left blue coins – his calling card.
14. JJ awaits his fate
Darren confronts JJ about what he saw, and JJ later warns Oscar that if he has blabbed then he will pay.
JJ thinks Darren knows that he has been abusing Frankie and is taking him to the police station. But in fact, Darren takes him to The Dog to meet a football coach, who offers him a place on the team.
15. Diane struggles
Ro is struggling as he approaches puberty and feels self-conscious about his appearance – and the long list for gender services makes things worse. Thankfully, Kitty gives him some good advice.
Meanwhile, at The Dog, Diane is unravelling amid all the family stress, and her drinking is getting heavier.
