Emmerdale storm tragedy and Corrie pregnancy: Soap highlights for the week ahead

There's some big moments in the soaps this week, with Emmerdale, Coronation Street and EastEnders all airing key scenes to look out for.

Emmerdale airs its big storm week, as a series of dramatic and deadly stunts leave lives in danger - with more than one character set to be killed off in the tragedy.

On EastEnders, Jack Branning lashes out and it isn't long before he's being set up.

On Corrie, teenager Summer Spellman drops a baby bombshell, as she confides in a loved one that she's pregnant.

Here's the biggest moments for the week ahead in soap land...

Emmerdale storm tragedy

Emmerdale will air heartbreak and tragedy next week (ITV)

Emmerdale will air heartbreak and tragedy next week, as a deadly wind storm strikes the village during the big stunt week for the ITV soap's 50th anniversary.

It has been confirmed death will hit the village, and lives will be changed forever with many characters caught up in the scenes.

Characters will be seriously injured with the village destroyed by the windstorm, with not everyone making it out alive.

New spoilers have confirmed one character learns "terrible news" with a loved one tipped to be seriously harmed if not killed in the windstorm.

As death and destruction hits the village, it's teased as to who is in the most danger with a number of spoilers hinting at characters' fates.

A series of stunts will occur, including a horrifying cow stampede.

Corrie's Summer baby twist

Summer Spellman will reveal that she is pregnant (ITV)

Summer Spellman will reveal that she is pregnant on Coronation Street next week.

The teen, played by Harriet Bibby, has gone through a difficult year after struggling over her diabetes diagnosis and failing one of her A-Levels, leading to her dropping out of university.

Summer and her boyfriend Aaron have also been on rocky ground, and later on this week Summer begs him to share his burden, but Aaron insists he needs to focus on his dad.

Next week, Gemma Winter shows off a jacket she bought at the clothes swap but when she heads to the loo, her phone rings.

Partner Chesney grabs the jacket and a pregnancy test falls out, but he's relieved when she says the test isn't hers.

A number of other residents come under scrutiny, including Daisy and Carla, but Paul finally recognises the jacket is Summer's and - when they're alone - asks her about the test.

She confides in Paul that she and Aaron are back together and they'll make a decision about the pregnancy together.

EastEnders' Jack set up

Jack Branning finds himself in trouble, after he lashes out at teen Denzel over his romance with his daughter Amy.

After turning violent, a complaint is made about him to his boss and he's being investigated - but things only get worse.

As ex Sam Mitchell makes a move on him, he's filmed just as she plants a kiss on him - with it looking as though they are getting intimate.

The next day, Jack is stunned when he receives the video of Sam kissing him from a mystery sender, and he then discovers he’s been suspended from work.
