Any soap fan worth their salt knows that Christmas is when the soaps are at their most soaptastic.
If something big is going to happen, it will inevitably happen over the turkey and ham, and if someone's number is up, you can guarantee it will be a yuletide end for them.
This Christmas is no different in soapland, with a feast of drama in store on all of the soaps. Max will be wreaking havoc in EastEnders, while Peter and Billy face off in Corrie. In Emmerdale, things get a little bizarre as Robert has a Groundhog Day Christmas while over in Fair City there's a surprise in store for Kerri-Ann that leaves her in quite the predicament.
