Eric Foster (Angus Castle Doughty) is feeling the heat in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 6.30pm (See our TV Guide for full listings). 

Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) is on a mission to catch out the mystery spiker. 

But she’s left disappointed when she doesn’t receive the support she was banking on getting from her friends, DS Zoe Anderson (Garcia Brown) and lawyer Verity Hutchinson (Eva O’Hara). 

Instead, she decides she will go it alone to ensnare the spiker.

However, Maxine is left shocked when there are surprising results and all the evidence points to one person. 

Is the culprit about to be revealed as Eric or is another resident under suspicion?    

Later on, Maxine’s plan is foiled when Eric destroys all the CCTV footage of the spiking attempt. 

However a shocking giveaway from Eric suddenly leaves his schemes exposed!

Meanwhile, Misbah Maalik’s (Harvey Virdi) relationship with her husband Zain Randeri (Jonas Khan)  becomes increasingly strained following Misbah’s admission that she pulled strings to get her son Imran (Ijaz Rana) straight to the top of the waiting list. 

Doctor Misbah has managed to get Imran a much earlier admission to the clinic that will help treat his eating disorder. 

However Zain doesn’t approve of her underhand tactics. 

With their relationship already under strain, is this latest development going to drive them even further apart?

Later on, and after a touching conversation with imam, Zain, things take a surprising turn when Imran delivers his verdict to the family. 

What has he decided to do? 

Elsewhere, Pearl Anderson (Dawn Hope) walks in on DeMarcus Westwood (Tomi Ade) looking up a certain drug online.
