Misbah’s actions to save Imran in Hollyoaks leave Donny shocked to the core

Misbah makes her feelings known as Donny is left shaken (Picture: Lime Pictures) Donny Clark (Louis Emerick) is torn between love and duty in Hollyoaks next week as Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi) goes to extreme lengths to save son Imran (Ijaz Rana). Imran, as viewers know, orchestrated the kidnapping of Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson), who vanished without a trace from a shopping centre several months ago. The disappearance of the local chef caused pandemonium and devastation in the eponymous village, with accusations made and fingers pointed aplenty – not to mention the arrest and incarceration of lawyer James Nightingale (Gregory Finnegan). But it turned out that Imran was the mastermind behind the plot. The character, who recently returned to the village after several years away, had a relationship with Cindy Cunningham (Stephanie Waring) while in LA and they bonded over their shared disdain for Ste’s crimes. Imran had not forgiven Ste for tormenting his family when groomed by the far-right extremists seven years ago while Cindy struggled to get past the fact that Ste never paid for killing Ella Richardson (Erin Palmer).

When he refused, Cindy joined forces with Sienna Blake (Anna Passey) and successfully tracked down missing Ste, returning him to his loved ones. As word of his crimes became public knowledge, Imran attempted to flee – but was shot by armed police. Mum Misbah has struggled to get her head around what Imran did but she’s made it clear that she’s determined to protect him – so much so that she’s using the crypto wallet he took from Gemma’s (Tisha Merry) salon as leverage in order to get him to withhold evidence against Imran. Imran was shot earlier this month when his role in Ste’s vanishing was exposed (Picture: Lime Pictures) Ask Metro Use AI to go deeper into the stories you care about – powered by Metro and trusted publications. Next week, the situation escalates further as Misbah destroys the evidence herself, which leads to an argument with Donny, who is unsure of whether to put his family or his career first. Donny is properly hurt but Misbah refuses to part with the crypto wallet until she knows for definite that Imran is out of the woods legally. Will this conflict tear the couple apart? Ste, meanwhile, is encouraged by his loved ones to make a statement against Imran, otherwise he’ll return to the village when he is discharged. Ste instead pays Imran a visit and organises a showdown with him, where they intend to hash things out. But just what will the outcome be?
