'Hollyoaks': Jacqui struggles at Rhys's wake

Hollyoaks businessman Tony Hutchinson stops Jacqui McQueen from saying something she might regret at Rhys Ashworth's wake next week.

An upcoming episode sees the villagers gather to pay their last respects to Rhys following his tragic death in the recent mini-bus disaster. However, emotions are still running high for Jacqui (Claire Cooper) due to the affair that her late husband had before his passing.

After the service is held, everyone heads to The Dog In The Pond for the wake, but Jacqui struggles to cope with the high praise that everyone seems to have for Rhys.

Deciding that some brutal honesty is needed, Jacqui gets up to give a speech about what Rhys was really like - but Tony (Nick Pickard) intervenes just in time by carrying her out of the pub.

Outside on the jetty, Tony and Jacqui then share a surprise kiss - but fans will have to wait and see whether it's just a one-off.

Meanwhile, Rhys's funeral brings his mum Suzanne back to the village - which leaves Nancy feeling unsettled given the returnee's history with Darren.

Nancy loses patience when Suzanne (Suzanne Hall) starts reliving her sexual encounters with Darren - but will Darren be able to convince his wife to keep her cool?

'Hollyoaks': Dodger's family troubles escalate

Dirk Savage loses his temper on Hollyoaks next week as he is forced to sit through a meal with Dodger's 'other' father.

The Savage clan have recently been rocked by Dodger (Danny Mac) tracking down his biological dad Patrick Blake and twin sister Sienna, so kind-hearted Liberty tries to bring all parties closer together next week.

When Liberty surprises everyone by inviting Patrick and Sienna over to the houseboat for dinner, Dirk (David Kennedy) realises that he needs to be on his best behaviour for Dodger's sake.

However, an insecure Dirk soon starts to feel inadequate compared to Patrick, and his patience is tested throughout the meal. In the end, he finally snaps by telling the Blakes that they're no longer welcome.

Will an angry Dodger be able to forgive Dirk for ruining things?

The ill-fated meal also has a second unexpected outcome as Sienna starts to pick up on the strange atmosphere between Texas and Will.

When Sienna finally guesses that the guilty pair have slept together behind Dodger's back, will she keep quiet about what she knows?

'Hollyoaks': Esther to see Ruby's true colours

Esther Bloom receives a nasty shock on Hollyoaks next week as she realises that her bullying nightmare isn't over.

The troubled teenager has been given some breathing space in recent weeks as her chief tormentor Maddie Morrison is now dead, while Ruby Button (Anna Shaffer) and Sinead O'Connor (Stephanie Davis) are both being nice to her temporarily for their own interests.

Ruby and Sinead currently need Esther (Jazmine Franks) on side as they don't want her to reveal the truth about the devastating mini-bus crash disaster. However, that all changes next week when the crash inquest takes place and puts the teens in the clear.

Now having no need to keep Esther sweet, a hateful Ruby shows her true colours by revealing that she does blame her for the crash, despite her previous assurances to the contrary.

With the pressure increasing on Esther once again, she loses her cool at a memorial service held for Maddie, Jono and Neil - telling everyone what she really thought of Maddie.

Esther's antics are likely to alienate her even further from her so-called friends, but Ruby may have to do some quick thinking when Frankie and Jack want to know what is wrong with Esther…

Hollyoaks airs these scenes on Monday, December 10, Tuesday, December 11 and Wednesday, December 12 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.

poor girl

So basically the three witches have bullied her and so far

Maddie - Died
Ruby - Lost the love of her life
Sinead - Knocked up silly bitch who has ruined her chances of going to Uni

Keep it up girls, karma will only get worse... its likes a horror film, anyone who bullies Esther has bad things happen to them

-prays the baby is a alien and eats Sinead's insides-

I can't stand the three witches! :nono: Has Joel been recast? Or is Andrew Still coming back? Does anyone know? :conf:

Yep revenge is an dish severed cold

Sinead gives births leak scenes

Joel is so useless he vanishes for like 2 months and when he comes back does **** all, hopefully the character has been axed

Joel is coming back. I'm just not sure if Andrew is. I heard he has left and they had to recast him.

:laugh3:

I like Joel, but without Theresa. He has no reason to stick around apart from her so he might be one of the characters who BK has decided to go in a cast cull.

Andrew was one of the better younger Actors IMO:).

rofl I love this trial on E4!

The trail is kinda un realistic but I love them all blaming Riley for everything.

I'm loving sassy Leah! :joker:

Finally, someone bringing a bit of realism to the ridiculous trial.

Suddenly blaming a dead man who she didn't mention before and her other witness is also conveniently dead.

Dr. Browning :amazed:

Browing is back :worship:

Finally! Paul is back! :dance:

The twist with Dr Browning at the end was good:D.

Wallis Day has filmed Holly's picture for the opening credits and Anna Passey who plays Sienna has done hers, as well as James Sutton who plays John Paul, so obviously HO are planning on revamping the credits again soon so there might be more changes?
