Hollyoaks spoilers follow.
Hollyoaks has revealed a first look at the ongoing fallout from this week’s devastating stunt. While not everybody has regained consciousness following the shocking road collision, they all appear to at least be alive for the time being.
Brutal scenes showed a car carrying Charlie Dean, Frankie Osbourne and Vicky Grant crashing into a removal van carrying the new Keane family, who were en route to the village to start a new life.
Going into next week, fans will be relieved to know that Frankie has regained consciousness — although she’s in for some upsetting news as dad Darren tells her that she suffered a serious leg injury that will prevent her from starting her course in London for at least six months.

Meanwhile, although Vicky is alive, she remains unconscious. The extent of newcomer Caleb Keane’s injuries remains unclear.
Viewers already know the Keane clan have a very strong connection to Frankie and Darren. Matriarch Beth is the estranged daughter of Jack Osbourne, making her Darren’s sister.
That connection will put Jack at the centre of an escalating family crisis next week as the truth around the crash, and who is ultimately responsible for it, begins to unravel.
The guilt weighs heavily on driver Charlie, and with Nancy determined to see the best in him, how will he and the others cope with the ongoing aftermath?

When Ste ends up at the police station, his lawyer is none other than James. Following a heart-to-heart between the pair, it’s not long before one thing leads to another…
