A new Hollyoaks teaser trailer has revealed what’s in store for viewers over the coming weeks.

Packed with drama, tears, betrayal, unexpected romance and a shooting, it also unveils the sensational return of Mercedes McQueen, played by Jennifer Metcalfe, who makes her comeback in the boot of Trevor Royle’s (Greg Wood) car.

But that’s not the only thing that the spring preview offers – there’s a sneak peek at Reenie McQueen’s (Zoe Lucker) arrival.

Romance is in the air for Tegan Lomax (Jessica Ellis) and newly-married Ziggy Roscoe (Fabrizio Santino), Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham) and Lindsey Butterfield (Sophie Austin) and Kim Butterfield (Daisy Wood-Davis) and Grace Black (Tamara Wall).

It’s not all happiness and joy though, as Diane O’Connor (Alex Fletcher) fights for custody of Dee Dee and her biological daughter Rose, and Tom Cunningham (Ellis Hollins) and Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) agree to give their baby up for adoption.

Hollyoaks continues on weeknights at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
