SABC3 brings back three of its most popular soapies this year: Isidingo, All My Children and Days of Our Lives. Soapie fans will be thrilled to hear that there is plenty of titillation in store this Valentine’s month.

On Isidingo, weekdays on SABC3 at 7.30pm, affairs are brewing.

Calvin is led by lust into a relationship that can only end badly. Bianca is in love, too, but will anything come of it? There is also plenty of drama for Ayanda as a newcomer turns her world topsy-turvy.

Things just don’t seem to be going S’khumbuzo’s way.

Prada is doing exceptionally well on On.Tv.

Charlie celebrates her final exam, and lands a job that is her father’s worse nightmare.

Cherel gets a nasty surprise of her own, as there is plenty of drama on the series this month.

All My Children, which is at 2pm daily on SABC3, finds Jack and Erica revelling in their renewed relationship, while Pam tries to convince the two that if they come clean with their reconciliation they’ll be seen as frauds.

Erica is willing to consider keeping things quiet for now, until Pam reveals that a tabloid is about to expose the truth about her and Jack.

Kendall is caught in an awkward position when Greenlee and Josh both begin comparing notes on how bad their love lives are, and is chagrined when the two reveal they were playing her.

Tad realises that JR was behind his own kidnapping.

Kendall organises a retreat for the women of Fusion, where make-overs turn into disasters.

Ava wants to be the new face of Fusion, but Greenlee refuses to even consider it. Kendall wonders whether Lily could be a good bet as spokesmodel.

Later, the women of Fusion enjoy a little girl bonding at a New York sleepover. Ava ends up with someone else in her bed.

Meanwhile, Kendall is in danger of losing her baby.

In season 29 of Days of Our Lives (weekdays at 5.40pm on SABC3) the love triangle between Nicole, EJ and Sami persists. Nicole accuses EJ of not caring for her and Sydney and gets him to give up on a project, which she promptly keys Phillip in on.

Lucas wonders where Sami’s baby is and she lies to him that the baby didn’t get a chance to live. Lucas reveals to Sami he fell off the wagon and Sami blames Chloe. Lucas tells her that he started drinking when Sami wouldn’t allow him near Will.

EJ is jealous when he witnesses the bond Sami and Rafe formed while she was in witness protection.

The rock-solid relationship between Bo and Hope is also in for a shake-up, and it seems Max and Chelsea are back together.

Kate is set on revenge once again, this time with Chloe in her sights.

So, even if the office gossip is stale, there is plenty of melodrama during the week.
