Prepare yourselves for all the drama as we take you through EastEnders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks spoilers for Monday August 28 to Friday September 1.

The UK’s biggest soaps are lining up another action-packed and dramatic week and when we say it’s not one to be missed we really mean it, with some truly historic moments on the cards.

We are primarily referring to EastEnders in that respect, with Cindy Beale set to stage her long-awaited comeback, much to the shock of the Walford residents who believed her to be dead.

With huge secrets revealed, plus showdowns aplenty as old faces come face-to-face for the first time in years, the scenes in question are reminiscent of the good old days of the BBC One soap.

If you cannot wait until next week to witness it all unfold then don’t fret as there are plenty of spoilers on the way, teasing what to expect.

The excitement is real.

Elsewhere in soapland, Emmerdale sees Caleb Miligan make a huge discovery as he crosses paths with sinister gangster Harry, while Coronation Street’s Carla Connor is starting to connect the dots where killer Stephen Reid is concerned.

Hollyoaks, meanwhile, sees Dilly Harcourt return, spelling trouble for Sienna Blake and Ethan Williams, and the mysterious phone thief is finally unmasked.

Metro.co.uk has all the spoilers you could possibly need for the week in question so grab a cuppa and pull up a pew as we’ve got a lot to get through!
