Emmerdale confirms how Sadie gets Caleb into bed with cruel scheme

 He finally gives into temptation, but will Ruby find out?

Emmerdale fans see passion explode next week as Sadie King finally succeeds in seducing Caleb Miligan.

The scheming character has been trying to get her claws into the married man as part of her plot with Joe Tate to destroy the Miligans, and vulnerable Caleb finally gives in when he thinks his wife Ruby has cheated on him. Is this the end for Caleb and Ruby?

Sadie is very financially motivated and used to the art of manipulation," explains Patsy Kensit, who plays Sadie. "She's taken a hit in life and needs money, so the fact Joe is paying Sadie is driving her.

"She likes an affluent lifestyle and wants that back – but she also looks at Ruby and Caleb's marriage and it's painful, because she would love what they have…"

Sadie has spent weeks gaslighting Ruby while posing as her friend, making Ruby look as though she has issues with alcohol. While Ruby remains clueless that she's being manipulated by her so-called mate, she's clocked Caleb's disapproval of her drinking and tries to cut back on the booze – much to Sadie's frustration.

When the pair hit the pub, Ruby is adamant this will be a sober session. Sadie, however, has other ideas…

"Ruby thinks she's drinking mocktails but Sadie's slipping alcohol into them without her knowledge," confirms Patsy. "It's such bad behaviour! Ruby thinks they taste a bit strange, but has no idea what's happening."

Soon, the drink goes to Ruby's head and when Sadie catches Ross Barton's eye from across the bar, she seizes the chance for a cheeky flirt. But it's all part of Sadie's saucy plan…

"Ross starts doing a flirty samba dance with Sadie," continues Patsy. "Sadie then grabs Ruby and throws them together. Ruby's falling all over the place by now, and when Sadie texts Caleb pretending she's concerned by Ruby's behaviour, he comes in and sees Ross and Ruby have fallen on the floor!

"Sadie has manipulated the situation to get Caleb there and damage his marriage."

Incandescent Caleb storms out, with Ruby unaware what her husband has witnessed. Ruby starts to realise she's feeling tipsy, which is baffling for her as she believed she was on soft drinks. Sadie does her best supportive friend act, while still spiking Ruby to get her even more plastered.

Later, Caleb quizzes Sadie on why his wife was draped over Ross, giving her the chance to do some more stirring when she says he and Ruby left the pub together…

Caleb saw enough to think that something happened between Ruby and Ross," reveals Patsy. "Even though she knows it didn't, Sadie doesn't correct him…"

With Caleb crushed to think his wife has been unfaithful, Sadie swoops in to take full advantage and finally gets him into bed.

"Sadie has her plan in her sights," says Patsy. "She is very attracted to Caleb, and she genuinely wants what him and Ruby have as a couple. As well as the money, of course!"

The next day, Caleb is full of regret. Despite thinking his wife has done the dirty, two wrongs don't make a right and he can't believe he's slept with Sadie in revenge.

He confronts Ruby about last night's shenanigans, and during their heated exchange, Caleb is mortified when it becomes clear he's got this all wrong – nothing actually happened with Ross.

Ruby puts the pieces together and fumes that Sadie made her hubby think she's been canoodling with another fella. When she tackles Sadie, however, can the conniving King talk her way out of it?

"The old Sadie would've squashed Ruby like a fly, but they've struck up this weird friendship," continues Patsy. "It's complicated and Ruby has been really kind to Sadie, and I think she does feel guilty about manipulating her.

"But I think Sadie can convince Ruby she didn't mean to cause any trouble – as always, she has a plan!"

Determined to keep their indiscretion under wraps, Caleb demands Sadie move out. But what's to stop spiteful Sadie revealing all to Ruby?

EastEnders reveals new Ian and Elaine passion in Bonfire Night twist

 The sparks are flying!

EastEnders’ Ian Beale and Elaine Peacock share another passionate snog next week, when Bonfire Night bickering turns into friskiness for the unlikely lovers!

Until this point, the amorous pair have kept their friends-with-benefits situation on the downlow. But could this saucy smooch ignite the gossip mongers of Walford and turn their casual fling into something more serious?

Ian and Elaine are no strangers to some heated rivalry!" says our EastEnders spy. "It all harks back to their fierce political campaigning which fuelled their attraction in the first place.

"Now there’s some friendly business competition instead, but still the same old chemistry!"

Ian might feel like some things in life have changed since he went to prison ­– but one thing’s for sure, Bonfire Night is still big business in the Square. When Ned uses his powers of persuasion to blag Ryder a job with Ian, Beale’s firework night is on.

The recently released ex-con hopes that this event will help him win back the public support he so desperately craves, but Ian’s worried when his big event falls apart at the seams...

"It’s not long before disaster strikes," notes our insider. "Ryder has some bargain fireworks, which pleases Ian. However, he soon realises they’re out of date and can’t be used. The last thing Ian needs is a family event becoming dangerous on his watch!"

Convinced the bonfire festivities are doomed, Ian threatens to call the whole event off, until he gets an idea to borrow some of Elaine’s fireworks.

The problem is, when Ian decides to speak to Elaine about the night, she misunderstands and thinks he’s asking her on a date. Embarrassed, Elaine saves face by refusing to give him any of her fireworks!

"If Ian and Elaine just communicated, they’d realise they want the same thing!" says our source. "As Ryder and Oscar team up to steal Elaine’s fireworks, Ian storms over there to confront her! The tension quickly hots up, and Ian can think of only one way to silence Elaine..."

Ian launches himself at Elaine and ends her furious tirade with a passionate kiss! But will these sparks turn into a full blaze and cement Ian and Elaine as a serious relationship? Or will they continue to dance around how they really feel for each other?

Hollyoaks confirms shocking event in the village with residents stunned

 Hollyoaks is set to air some huge episodes next week, as a dramatic event sends shockwaves around the village. With the walls closing in on Imran Maalik, could this latest incident be the final nail in the coffin – and will he confess to his crimes?

It was recently revealed to viewers in a flashback episode that Imran enjoyed an unexpected romance with Cindy in America before he crossed paths with Leah, and that the pair are behind Ste’s kidnapping.

While Imran and Cindy decided to take revenge by taking Ste and framing James for his disappearance, Cindy later backed out of the plan and Imran continued with his plan alone.

Imran even got Lucas to help cover his dad’s kidnapping, but when Lucas fled the village and a chase went seriously wrong, Imran left him for dead – and later made a threat against Ste’s life to stop Lucas from revealing the truth.

Meanwhile, Leah has started growing closer to Imran again since her accident, but she was shocked when she watched Imran’s video confession and discovered about his previous connection to Cindy.   

In next week’s episodes, Leah remains hopeful that she and Imran can reconnect, though is still concerned that he is still in love with Cindy. However, she has no idea that Imran is hiding another, much darker secret.

But everything changes when a shocking event hits the village, with new pictures of Tony and Pearl looking stunned suggesting that what happens is totally unexpected.

As chaos unfolds, Lucas decides that he can’t keep the truth about his dad’s disappearance to himself any longer, so he rushes to the police station to tell the police about what Imran has done.

Lucas isn’t the only villager keen for the truth to be uncovered, as Cindy tracks down Imran and urges him to come clean about Ste’s kidnapping.

What Imran decides to do next remains a mystery, but could Cindy be the person to finally make him see sense about his dangerous actions?

In the aftermath of this chain of events, Cindy is questioned by police about what has happened, with her role in Ste’s disappearance also under threat of being exposed.

Will anyone face consequences for Ste’s kidnapping?

EastEnders actor reveals sweet former co-star connection ..

 EastEnders actor Matthew James-Bailey has revealed that his former Hollyoaks co-star Rita Simons provided essential advice when he took on his current role as baddie Craig Ingram.

Prior to his time in Walford, Matthew appeared in Hollyoaks for three years as Ethan Williams, Sienna Blake's husband who she accidentally pushed to his death on their wedding day. At the same time, Rita played Marie Fielding in the soap.

Matthew's current character Craig is involved in a twisted grooming storyline with teenage Amy Mitchell, the daughter of Rita's EastEnders fan favourite character Roxy Mitchell, who she played until 2017.

Speaking exclusively to Inside Soap, Matthew opened up about the support that Rita offered him when he got his role in EastEnders.

"One of the first things I did when I got the role was message Rita and say, 'I need tips!'" laughs Matthew. “Rita was so excited for me, she was just a great mentor to bounce back and forth with and prepare me for everything that was to come.

When Rita and I had scenes together on Hollyoaks, there were moments the crew would have to split us up!" he adds. "We were terrible. We have such a shared sense of humour so
we just couldn’t get through it without laughing!"

Matthew's current role is completely different to his Hollyoaks character, and he emphasises that taking on such an important issue-based storyline was no easy feat.

"I was apprehensive and a bit scared, especially coming from playing someone like Ethan, who was this lovable character," says Matthew. "But then you have to have a word with yourself and go, 'This is a really important message to get out there.'

"I've grown up with three sisters, and I wanted to do them justice as much as anything else. Manipulation can be extremely charming and unexpected, especially in positions of power. So after reading where the story would go, I grabbed it with both hands."

Home and Away spoilers for next week 2 to 6 November 2026

 Coming up on Home and Away, time is running out for critically-ill Eden as Cash struggles to be there for his wife when she needs him most.

Elsewhere, Lacey and Dylan's first date doesn't go to plan, and Tane receives distressing news about little Archie.

Here's a full collection of 13 big moments coming up.

Lacey and Dylan's date goes wrong

Lacey is getting ready for her date with Dylan but Jo still worries she's not ready for another relationship.

Jo's fears prove to be founded when Lacey hits the wine to combat her nerves and makes Dylan feel uneasy with her overly flirty behaviour.

After secretly spying from afar, Sonny and Jo decide it's time to intervene.

Dylan is set on Lacey

Dylan apologises to Sonny for not telling him about Lacey, but insists her drunken behaviour hasn't put him off from wanting to see her again.

Back at the Langhams', Amelia gets short shrift from Jo after encouraging Lacey to go for it with Dylan. But David is proud of his daughter for putting herself back out there.

 David is annoyed with Amelia

Justin fears David may never forgive him for lying about Richie, but Alf and Leah think he should try to clear the air.

When David shows up at the Coffee Cart, Justin scarpers, leaving Leah to explain that Amelia asked them to give David space.

This annoys David, who feels Amelia has overstepped the mark once again.

David and Justin make amends

As Amelia defends her actions, David suggests they make a pact to trust each other when they say they've dealt with something.

This sparks another conversation about Amelia's future after Levi returns to work at the hospital.

Later, Justin arrives at David's doorstep with beers and the pair agree to put the whole Richie business behind them.

Tane receives news about Archie

Tane receives a call from Harper to say Archie is in hospital after falling off the swing at daycare.

The distressing news hits Tane hard, particularly after he learns that even Dana was notified before him.

Tane snaps at Alf, but later apologises for his outburst after Mali makes him realise he can still be a good dad despite the distance between him and Archie.

 Richie rises to the challenge

The day of the Bronze Medallion assessment arrives and Richie is eager to impress John.

He works hard and fast in the fitness challenge, ahead of the pack, and helps one of his fellow students when they suffer a fall.

Afterwards, John congratulates Richie for making it through, but his excitement is overshadowed by the news that Eden's been taken to hospital.

 Eden's health takes a sudden turn

Eden undergoes a transfusion in the hospital as Cash makes plans for her to meet with fellow aplastic anaemia sufferer Melanie.

The next morning, Cash is excited to hear Melanie is visiting that day but Eden isn't feeling well and goes to lie down.

When Eden emerges from her rest, she struggles to pour herself a glass of water. Shivering uncontrollably, Eden drops the glass and Cash knows something is really wrong.

Cash walks out on Eden

Cash rushes Eden to the ED, but by the time they get there she's barely conscious and struggling to breathe.

Eden's consultant Dr Pope explains she's had a bad reaction to the transfusion and they're running out of ways to treat her.

Cash becomes overwhelmed and walks out of the hospital, unable to cope with what's happening to his wife.

Cash makes a heartbreaking discovery

Cash returns home and opens up his laptop to discover that Melanie has passed away suddenly.

Remi arrives to find Cash knocking back whiskey and fearing Eden has no chance of survival now Melanie is gone.

After drunkenly dismissing Remi, Cash makes a desperate call to Gary for help.

 Eden undergoes further treatment

Dr Pope presents the option of Eden undergoing chelation therapy. Knowing this could be her last chance, Eden commits to the treatment.

Meanwhile, Tane tries to get through to Cash that he's needed back at the hospital, but is met with an angry response.

In that moment Gary arrives and Tane hopes he will be able to sort Cash out.

 Eden wants to get home to Cash

Gary refuses to join Cash's pity party and orders him to ditch the drink and get back to Eden.

Eden wakes up from chelation therapy and is worried about Cash's absence, knowing that he's too frightened to face her.

Determined to get back to her husband, a frail Eden tries to discharge herself as Levi and Remi watch on in despair.

 Gary hurts Remi's feelings

Before Eden has the chance to leave, Cash suddenly shows up with Gary and promises he won't leave her side ever again.

Remi makes his feelings about Cash's cowardly behaviour known, but Gary implies he's not family and has no business being there.

Offended by Gary's harsh words, Remi takes himself off to Salt for a drink.

 Reality bites for Abigail

Richie surprises John by announcing he's completed all the online modules for his Bronze Medallion.

As the next training session starts, Richie shines once more but is distracted when he sees Abigail looking emotional.

Abigail breaks down in her boyfriend's arms, fearing these really could be Eden's last days.
