Zain Rizwaan (Jonas Khan) remains in a critical condition following his dramatic collapse last week from a stroke. In tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 7pm (See our TV Guide for full listings) his wife Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi) is by his hospital bedside praying he is going to regain consciousness. 

Earlier on there have been brewing tensions within the Maalik household. 

New arrival Donny Clark (Louis Emerick), who was seen getting more than a little TOO CLOSE to Misbah, is attempting to bond with his son, Andre (David Anthony-Joshua).

However, Andre is too preoccupied, worried that his actions put Zain in serious harm following his stroke.

Elsewhere, Lucas Hay (Oscar Curtis), who is being brainwashed by twisted Carter Shepherd (David Ames), tries to impress his headteacher. 

Carter has set Lucas up with a sex worker in order to prove he is ‘straight’, but the sex worker happens to be Hannah Ashworth (Emma Rigby) who Carter has blackmailed. 

Meanwhile, John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) tries to encourage Lucas to help out with the planned Pride event.
