Tragedy hits the village.
Hollyoaks spoilers follow.
Hollyoaks is to air a horror motorbike accident in the village which will end with Abe Fielding announcing a shock death.
The show’s biggest storylines will collide in upcoming episodes, in a major stunt that will change lives forever.
In scenes that will air next week, Suzanne and JJ run into Jack and Frankie outside The Dog, as the fractured family continues to be at war after Frankie’s reveal of JJ’s abuse.
Frankie confronts her mum about not believing her, explaining more about her horrific childhood and making it clear that she won’t be silenced. She is supported by Jack, who challenges Suzanne when she denies that she knew anything.
Meanwhile, next week Cleo tries to escape her abusive partner Abe and gets a lift on Dave’s bike to make her way to Warren and Mercedes.
But she continues to be chased by Abe and so attempts to make it back to her home – and this time she is riding the motorbike.
Despite Cleo’s best efforts, she doesn’t know what she is doing and isn’t able to control the bike. In shocking scenes, she careers through the market and into the McQueens’ house, with Marie, Jack, Suzanne and Frankie all inside.
In the aftermath of the huge crash, the house is a scene of devastation, while outside Cleo lies motionless on the floor.
Abe is unable to get a response from his partner. But instead of getting help, he snoops in Cleo’s bag and takes her iPad before eventually calling an ambulance.
Leela breaks the news of the accident to Tony and the Osbornes, while Darren rushes to Frankie and Jack’s aid.
Later at the hospital, Joel is worried about Cleo and tries to find out why she was on the bike in the first place and what she was trying to get away from.
Tired of hiding, Cleo reveals her bruises and tells both Joel and Leela that she is being abused by Abe.
Furious with his brother, Joel then fights with Abe, but the pair’s feud is interrupted when they realise their mum Marie is deteriorating.
Later, Abe breaks the news to Cleo that Marie has died and in a terrifying threat, he warns that he is going to make her wish she was dead.
Sure enough, Sally arrives at Cleo’s hospital room and finds the bed empty. Where has she gone?
Elsewhere, in the woods, Mercedes is desperately calling for Warren – who has discovered that Dave is Blue during a huge showdown.
What happens between them is yet to be revealed, but Mercedes later returns to the village with the twins, to find the McQueens’ house destroyed and chaos unfolding.
After the dramatic week has concluded, viewers will then return to Hollyoaks village when one year has passed since the tragic events. What has happened over the missing 365 days?
Hollyoaks streams first online via Channel 4 each weekday at 7.30pm. Episodes then air on E4 the following day, before getting their YouTube premiere a week after that.
