Myra McQueen (Nicole Barber-Lane) is back in Chester and wants answers from her sick daughter, Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 7pm (See our TV Guide for full listings).

Mercedes, who's being treated for bowel cancer, has previously confessed to the murder of psychopath Abe Fielding (Tyler Conti) and is now behind bars.

Mercy made the confession thinking that she was protecting Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin), unaware that Abe’s true killer was in fact, Jez Blake (Jeremy Sheffield).

Tonight Myra is determined to find out why and who Mercedes is taking the fall for.

With the help of doctor Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi) and Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson), Mercedes suddenly finds herself in the middle of an intervention and being grilled by her mum.

Meanwhile, therapist Tommy (Brandon Fellows), who has been giving support to Leela Lomax (Kirsty-Leigh Porter) turns up in the village attempting to make amends after his bungled attempt to kiss her!

Martha Blake (Sherrie Hewson) is worried when she sees her son Jez (Jeremy Sheffield), looking through his book which contains details and pictures of all his past murder victims.

However she’s relieved when she hears Jez is also getting treatment from therapist Tommy.

In a therapy session at Tommy’s house, Jez opens up about his past relationship with his twin brother Patrick and how Patrick brother stole the love of his life.

Tommy offers Jez some advice on how to make things work with John Paul and later on Jez puts it into action.

Wanting to show John Paul how much he cares he gets down on one knee outside the hospital and proposes to him!

Plus, Sienna Blake (Anna Passey) and Cleo continue to grow closer as they confide in each other and later on Cleo asks Sienna to be her date at an event.

However, things are about to get a whole lot more complicated when Cleo bumps into her ex Joel who is panicking about a voicemail message he left!

What did the message say?

Hollyoaks is available to stream from 7am Monday to Wednesday on Channel 4 or watch live on E4 at 7pm.

Hollyoaks has created a wonderful Myra McQueen homage to Beyoncé following her revelation she's pregnant with twins

Pregnant Hollyoaks character Myra McQueen has channelled her ‘hero’ Queen Bey, replicating the global star’s already iconic image - used to announce that she is expecting twins.

A Hollyoaks spokesperson said: “Myra is a huge Beyoncé fan, all the McQueens are strong independent women and really identify with her music."

Myra – played by Nicole Barber Lane, said: “Me and Bey – blessed to be bump buddies.”

Myra is a huge Beyoncé fan, as are all the McQueens, and feels they have a connection both being pregnant.

The Single Ladies singer broke the news to her 92.3 million followers on her Instagram page.

Alongside a picture showing her growing baby bump, she wrote: “We would like to share our love and happiness.

“We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes.”

She signed her message from ‘The Carters’.

We think she and Myra glow in equal proportions.

Goldie McQueen is the latest addition to Hollyoaks' most fiery family. But who is the McQueen which most defines the all-drama dynasty?

The McQueens arrived in Hollyoaks back in 2006, quickly becoming one of soap’s most controversial and colourful families ever.

Are you even a McQueen if you haven’t been to prison, faked your own death, slept with your sister’s husband or been held hostage a couple of times?

Now there's a new addition to the family – young mum Goldie (Chelsee Healey) is about to descend on the village with a troublesome young brood and a dangerous past.

But who has been through the most in the past 10 years? Who is the biggest ‘drama McQueen’? Here we rank the family which knows no shame… 13 Michaela

The first McQueen on the scene really had it easy compared to her relatives. More of a comedy sidekick to her friend Amy, Michaela (Hollie-Jay Bowes) had little drama of her own. Now she’s sunning it up in Ibiza – lucky for some…

12 Celine

While she hasn’t been around for long, self-conscious Celine (Sarah George) was in thick of it in the Gloved Hand Killer storyline. Taking inspiration from the hospital murderer, she attempted to kill her sisters’ abuser Pete.

10 & 11 Porsche and Cleo

Both sisters fell prey to stepdad Pete’s abusive nature. While no one would believe poor Porsche (Twinnie-Lee Moore), Cleo (Nadine Mulkerrin)was firmly under his spell. Porsche soon left after her husband’s affairs with her cousins were revealed, but Cleo remains in the village, taking the blame for crimes she didn’t commit.

9. Tina

When dying in an explosion orchestrated by your vengeful long-lost brother doesn’t even make you the unluckiest McQueen, you know your family has issues.

8. Phoebe

The honorary McQueen. The homeless teen had been through a lot before joining the family; she was then arrested for Mercedes’ 'murder' and offed by the Gloved Hand Killer. Now that is unlucky. Poor Phoebe (Mandip Gill).

7. John-Paul

Although he’s had a series of torrid love affairs and a turbulent career as a teacher, John-Paul  (James Sutton) may be the most stable person in the family. The torment and rape he suffered at the hands evil schoolboy Finn has been John-Paul’s biggest struggle, but his life’s been thrown into more confusion as his estranged dad is now his boss, the Headmistress!

6. Theresa

She’s been to prison for killing her daughter’s father, donated a kidney to a budding serial killer and, of course, been taken hostage. Through all this Theresa (Jorgie Porter) managed to come up with inventive names for her children – Myra-Pocahontas Regina Madonna Savage-McQueen just rolls off the tongue.

5. Reenie

We all know the McQueens love a drink, but Reenie (Zoe Lucker) was on a totally different level when it comes to alcohol consumption. Her parenting skills are not all they might be, but then the mum-of-three had a dreadful upbringing and is married to a complete wrong 'un. Bad luck as much as poor judgment, we’d say.

4. Myra

Having lost three children, Myra (Nicole Barber-Lane) is a truly unlucky soap matriarch. She was forced into an impossible ‘Sophie’s Choice’ decision by her abandoned son and was 'killed' by evil Dr Browning. As well as her own troubles, she has to witness the constant messes her kids get into.

3. Carmel

The ditzy beautician/PCSO/nun was often overlooked by her family. Carmel (Gemma Merna) fell in love with Jacqui’s immigrant husband, was scarred by a fake-tan lamp, widowed on her wedding day, manipulated by a fake priest and cheated on time after time. Even when she died in the 2015 train disaster, it wasn’t long before Mercedes upstaged her by faking her own murder.

2. Jacqui

Introduced fresh from a prison cell, Jacqui (Claire Cooper) had on-off relationships with crime and Tony Hutchinson. She suffered a sexual assault by a friend, her cheating husband Rhys died in a bus crash and her dreams of having a baby never quite panned out. Run out of the village by Trevor Royle, she faked her own death and moved to Alicante. Don't bet on her not returning one day!

1. Mercedes

It had to be Mercedes (Jen Metcalfe) – the village vixen is known for her explosive storylines and schemes. She’s been married three times with two dead husbands and one dead fiancé and affairs peppered throughout. She’s been kidnapped twice, faked her own death, killed her murdering husband, stabbed herself and become an escort. Now raising her former friend (and Gloved Hand Killer’s) children, the feisty McQueen seems to have mellowed, but given her track record, it won't last long…

Ratings by Jessica McComish

Hollyoaks' McQueen family matriarch is set to make her return to the village when actress Nicole Barber-Lane rejoins the Channel 4 soap.

Nicole bowed out of the show last summer when Myra faked her own death, but returned for a one-off episode at the beginning of the year and has now been confirmed to be returning for a longer run.

According to Digital Spy, Myra's comeback will link in with the return of her niece, Theresa McQueen (Jorgie Porter), who's in prison on remand for the murder of Calvin Valentine.

The storyline is thought to involve the run-up to Theresa's trial which could include some big twists.

Myra faked her death after being shot by Dr Paul Browning and has been hiding out in Spain with daughter Jacqui (Claire Cooper), who also left Hollyoaks last year.

During a deadly confrontation down at the docks, Doctor Browning prepares to shoot Myra...

Fearing for Mercedes, the McQueens take the law into their own hands. Myra goes round to see Dr. Browning. He's in the shower and as she starts to tidy up, she finds Mercedes' blood-stained scarf... Carmel overhears Browning talking to Jim and her fears are confirmed when Browning says "she's dead". She tells Myra to call the police but, after further investigation, it seems Browning is innocent.

Darren is confused by Nancy's increasingly tetchy mood. Meanwhile, Frankie is throwing away all the medication she can find in the house, in anticipation for Esther's return.

George tells Callum the news about Ste and is excited about the future - unaware that Ste regrets his decision and doesn't feel the same way. Later, George's whole world falls apart when Ste tells him their night together meant nothing.
