Over on Hollyoaks, there's trouble ahead between Tony and Diane Hutchinson as the pressure of Dee Dee's illness becomes too much.

Dee Dee was recently diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis, a serious condition that involves the immune system attacking the brain and impairing function.

Later this month, tension starts to flare up between Tony (Nick Pickard) and Diane (Alex Fletcher) as they disagree over how best to handle the situation.

One thing they struggle to reach a resolution over is whether Dee Dee's biological mum Tegan Lomax should know the truth or not.

Tony thinks that Tegan deserves to be told what's going on, but Diane disagrees and leaves the couple at a stalemate. Upset by the arguments, Dee Dee throws her cup and begs them to stop.

Despite this, things only get worse at the hospital later on as they begin arguing in front of the doctor and Dee Dee. Could Dee Dee's condition put Tony and Diane's marriage under threat?
