Shocks and surprises in store for soap’s finest next week (Picture: ITV / BBC)

The shocks are most certainly not in short supply in soapland next week, with big departures and kidnappings on the cards.

Moira Dingle decides to up sticks and leave in Emmerdale in the wake of recent events, but have we truly seen the last of her? The jury is still out on that one, so to speak.

Over in Coronation Street, Bernie Winter is kidnapped as her plan to catch Fern goes awry big time! EastEnders, meanwhile, sees Alfie Moon taken hostage by a gunman.

And as for Sam Mitchell? She makes a huge discovery about Amy, and shock scenes ensue.

Last but not least we’ve got Hollyoaks, which sees Zain offer struggling DeMarcus Westwood some words of support and comfort.

For all this and more, Metro.co.uk has handpicked the top ten must-see moments of the week.
