Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) has convinced Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin) and Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) that they need to get rid of abuser Abe Fielding (Tyler Conti) once and for all in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 7pm (See our TV Guide for full listings).

Peri’s mum, Leela Lomax (Kirsty-Leigh Porter) who was raped by Abe in the woods is starting to have doubts about murdering twisted Abe, fearing it will come back to haunt them.

However, Mercy, Cleo and Peri remind her that it’s the only way they can ensure he never hurts someone else like he hurt them.

Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham) is also worried about the plan and pleads with Mercedes not to go through with it.

However for Mercy there is no turning back now.

Leela does as instructed and tricks Abe into meeting her in the flat but when Abe arrives he’s shocked to find Cleo and Peri are also there waiting for him.

As a cornered Abe discovers their plan he retaliates.

Are the women about to find themselves in terrible danger from their aggressive abuser?

When Marie spots Abe she’s raging and confronts him for his actions, telling her son she’s ashamed of what he’s done.

Abe quickly realises that Marie is not willing to help him and grabs her, holding a knife to her as he leads her through the Hutch in front of horrified locals who have gathered for the restaurant’s opening.

Can anyone help rescue Marie from wild-eyed Abe?

What is he planning to do to his own mother?

Plus, over at the Blake’s, Sienna Blake (Anna Passey) is struggling to move past her sister, Dilly Harcourt’s (Emma Johnsey-Smith) recent murder.

Sienna’s father, Patrick Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) killed Dilly to protect Sienna after she blurted out that it was her who had killed her new husband, Ethan Williams (Matthew James-Bailey) on their wedding day.

However, Sienna is alarmed to hear that her grandmother, Martha (Sherrie Hewson) has been speaking to a neighbour about their ‘family drama’.

An agitated Martha tells Sienna and Jez that she may have let it slip to Abe where Dilly is buried!

What will Abe do, armed with this incriminating information?
