But some of the twists fans have possibly rumbled could be airing weeks or even months away, if at all. We've got Joe Tate's possible downfall, the identity of the person drugging Chas Dingle and some possible death shockers on Emmerdale, fans believe.
Over on EastEnders fans think a past fling and a romance secret will come to light, and that one missing character will return from the dead - while another character could face a shocking demise. As for Corrie, it's all about Rob Donovan and the big siege.
Fans are convinced they have unearthed the victim of the shock shooting, and a possible sad exit with the episodes just days away. Here are the biggest theories of the week just gone...

Joe is planning something sickening, and fans aren't sure he will get away with it. It's pretty extreme, and he is due a comeuppance.
After the reveal that he has chronic kidney disease and is being kept alive by a dialysis machine, needing a kidney transplant, we found out he and Dr Crowley were looking for a donor could steal a kidney from. That unlucky victim is Caleb, and Joe and Crowley are now planning the secret operation to happen next week.
Things are set to take a catastrophic turn though with a violent attack seeing Caleb's life on the line and he may not survive. After a flashforward showed him flatlining, it seems this will be linked to the story with Joe and Crowley as the big plan goes dangerously wrong.
Viewers are convinced poor Caleb will lose his life. Whether Caleb lives or dies, Joe has to be found out at some point, so will someone take a deadly revenge?
Perhaps Manpreet Sharma, Dawn Taylor, Kim Tate or even Crowley will expose him, or maybe a whodunnit could happen. Maybe Caleb or a relative will kill him or at least make him pay for his sickening crime.
The big plot of last week was Chas' collapse, with her soon learning she had overdosed on her painkillers. Doctors immediately questioned whether she had taken too many of her pills, resulting in the high levels in her system.
Both Chas and her partner Liam Cavanagh insisted this had not happened, and soon Ella Forster faced accusations over the incident. But fans are convinced it wasn't Ella, and was John Sugden.
John saved the day when he helped Chas and rushed her to hospital, just as he was trying to win her over amid her clear disapproval of his romance with her son Aaron Dingle. Fans think John messed with the medication either to kill her, or to be able to save her to look like the hero.
If John is a serial killer like fans believe, Ella could be his next victim. After the incident with Chas, some viewers questioned whether John will want to help her and possibly kill her enemy Ella to get her out of the way.
Or what if John is the person who tampered with Chas' pills, and Ella, who is keen to prove her apparent innocence, finds out? If John has killed before, he will have no issue with silencing Ella before she has a chance to expose his games.
There was a major development this week as we found out what really happened to Harry Mitchell's missing ex Shireen. Nicola Mitchell's murder confession led viewers to the realisation that she'd either killed her years earlier, or had her accomplice Benji do it for her.
Either way it was Benji who disposed of the evidence and buried the body, revealing the location in a recent episode. But fans are thinking a twist is on the cards as we wait to learn a motive for the crime.
What if Shireen isn't really dead and got away? What if Benji pretended to kill her, or she was still alive after the attack if it was Nicola? Fans have a feeling Shireen will head to Walford soon to expose Nicola's crime.
Amid speculation over a motive for Shireen's murder, fans spotted something about Harry and Shireen's brother Asad in a recent scene. Harry told Asad he missed him and the pair seemed close, with it said they used to hang out all the time.
The way Harry stared at Asad on numerous occasions left fans picking up on "chemistry" between them, with some viewers convinced they were more than friends. So were Harry and Asad secretly together, and did Shireen find this out? Is this why she and Harry rowed and Shireen fled, and might it be a motive for her death?
If Nicola did kill Shireen like she's claimed, could she kill again if someone got too close to the truth? Fans certainly think so after it emerged Teddy Mitchell and Junior Knight's new business venture was looking at the very site where Shireen's body is buried as its base.
Nicola's attempts to discourage the plan fell flat, so Teddy and Junior are still keen to go with the disused estate for their business venture - unaware of what they might find. Might Nicola need to go to desperate lengths to conceal the truth about Shireen's death?
Could Teddy or Junior end up finding out what really happened, and might this make them Nicola's next victim?
Just the two key theories from Corrie fans this week, both linked to Rob's hostage drama. Some fans think a shocking death is on the way, but others think a separate character will be the one left with a gun wound by the middle of next week.
Rob takes Tracy Barlow and Carla Connor hostage, before Lisa Swain gets caught up in the commotion. Some fans are convinced Rob's ex Tracy will be killed off in a major twist, amid actress Kate Ford's soap future sparking rumours.
But a new clip suggests Tracy makes it out of the situation, with Lisa and Carla alone with gunman Rob in terrifying scenes. Fans say it's Lisa who will be shot, taking a bullet for her girlfriend Carla.

While some fans wonder if Rob will be the victim and be shot by police, others fear it will be Lisa or Carla - with all the clues apparently pointing to the former.
