Diana Vickers performs on Hollyoaks Music Show

Diana Vickers will be seen playing a gig from the set of Hollyoaks when the soap's music show returns. The second series of Hollyoaks Music Show with Matalan.co.uk features performances from acts including The X Factor's Diana, Robyn, Gabriella Cilmi and Cascada in the fictional Chester suburb. In the 10th instalment, the show will announce the winner of Hollypops, a UK-wide search for new talent, which last year unearthed the band Redtrack. Presenter Rick Edwards said: "I'm absolutely delighted the show is returning. We had a great time recording it last year and the live performances were amazing. I just can't wait to be back in Hollyoaks Village!" The programme kicks off on Saturday May 22. Click here to watch whatsontv.co.uk's weekly soaps video preview, the Soap Scoop
