Relations between the pair hit an all-time low when Joanie fails to control her anger, and Zak witnesses the violent moment between his fiancée and his daughter.

Former EastEnders star Joel Beckett, aka Jake Moon, reprises his role as convicted paedophile Mark, so we caught up with him for the low-down on what it’s like to play such a controversial character… How did you feel when the call came in to play Mark again? I just thought, ‘Yeah, why not?’. It’s always nice to go back up to Cardiff, as everyone is so lovely there.

I absolutely loved War And Peace – there were a lot of hot boys in it! I do think the actors were really good, though. I even recorded it, and that is unusual for me. I loved Shetland as well, and not just because it was set in Scotland! Also, I’ve just been watching Making A Murderer and Jessica Jones on Netflix. My kids and I love The Mindy Project . I know it’s not on at the moment, but all of those American comedies are our idea of fun. As well as Mindy, we love Brooklyn Nine-Nine and New Girl. Of course there’s my nice, stable diet of Judge Judy . It’s so crazy, but also very appealing. I always think,…

Both teamwork and precision are needed in this new series hosted by Kiss FM’s Rickie Haywood Williams and Melvin Odoom. Two teams will take on a variety of challenges where the goal is to score a very specific amount – and they only have a chance of winning if they’re bang on the money… “Essentially the show’s about the teams going head to head trying to win up to £40,000,” Melvin tells us. “But the stars of the show are our boxes – each box hides a number from one to nine, which is the target that they’ve got to hit. We really want the contestants to have as much fun as possible, and you don’t have to be an athlete or Einstein to get involved.” Rickie and Melvin also…

Belle being part of a steamy affair in the village shows that she has well and truly grown up. For Eden, the shift to big, adult storylines has been exciting, and she can certainly see her character following in the footsteps of relatives Charity and Chas. “Belle as a maneater? I can imagine it because she’s a Dingle!” grins Eden. “Given that I came into the show as a child, it would be weird to watch her progress into this crazy woman, but I’d be fine with that. Belle isn’t a nasty girl – but who knows what she might be like in the future!” As strange as it would be for Emmerdale viewers to see Belle change so drastically, it would be more difficult for Eden’s family to get…

“I WATCHED THE CHARLENE AND SCOTT WEDDING A MILLION TIMES!” Landing a role as the daughter of Ramsay Street’s two most famous alumni is a pretty big deal – but for 18-year-old Sarah Ellen, who arrives on Ramsay Street this week as Scott and Charlene’s daughter Madison Robinson, it’s just the next step in her bid for world domination!

FOR THOSE OF US old enough to remember Scott and Charlene being in Neighbours, the world of vlogging and internet stardom may seem an odd concept.
