Over on Hollyoaks, Mercedes McQueen is all smiles as she prepares to marry Russ Owen, unaware that he's hiding a huge secret from her.

The Channel 4 soap have released first look pictures at the pair's big day, which has been granted an hour-long slot.

The pictures show Mercedes looking radiant as she arrives at the church, oblivious to the fact that Russ cheated with her cousin Goldie last month.

Of course, viewers know that Mercedes isn't entirely innocent herself as she's also hiding an infidelity secret after sleeping with Sylver while they were in Magaluf.

Determined to put the past behind her, Mercedes is feeling nostalgic on the morning of the wedding as she reminisces about her failed marriages – optimistic that this one will be different.

Mercedes is elated as she walks out of the wedding car and into the ceremony, which features Loose Women pair Janet Street Porter and Linda Robson as wedding guests.

But will Mercedes and Russ's wedding go off without a hitch? Or are all their secrets implode? Given we've been promised 60-minutes of unmissable drama, we're banking on the latter...
