Sam and Jack get steamy in the new Soap Scoop
Jack Branning and Sam Mitchell end up in bed in EastEnders next week - and it's all part of Archie's plan to get his hands on the Queen Vic. The serial schemer is hoping that Jack and Sam will get together and head abroad so that Phil will lose the bail money that the Mitchells put up for Sam - allowing Archie to swoop on the Vic. Watch how the events unfold in the new Soap Scoop, plus how Tony confesses in Coronation Street, how Newt has a run-in with Rae in Hollyoaks and how Charity plots against Cain in Emmerdale.
