“You can’t beat the old favourites!” Now, for all that I love new characters – they’re the lifeblood of soaps, and when a fresh face really takes off it does give your show a whole new lease of life – sometimes, you just can’t beat the old favouites. Your heart will warm when you see this week’s episodes, as not only is Dot back from her extended trip to Ireland, but she’s looking up her old friend, Dr Legg. It’s wonderful to watch these two veterans, June Brown and Leonard Fenton – who have a combined age of 183, let’s not forget – back together and firing on all cylinders, when the pair rekindle their friendship in what will prove to be an emotional new storyline. Great stuff! Talking of…

Hayley’s anguish has been heightened by the fact that she’s been keeping a shameful secret about the father of her unborn baby from the rest of her family – it’s Kat’s estranged husband, Alfie Moon! When Hayley tries to open up to Jean about her boozing, the older woman attempts to offer her some reassurance. However, as Hayley begins talking about how she started drinking heavily while she was in Spain, Jean’s suspicions are aroused about the identity of the baby’s father. Jean tries to probe the matter further, though her pointed questions only result in Hayley walking out. However, as Jean and Kat rush to the tower block to try to prevent the young woman from making a truly terrible mistake, Jean is certain that she has worked out…

More filming shots from another Corrie location shoot have revealed further drama for Abi, who winds up at the Weatherfield Court of Justice. Flanked by son Seb and her best mate Tracy, troubled Abi looks to have cleaned up her act since the last pictures we brought you, which showed her slumped in the street and cradling a bottle of vodka. “By the time these scenes air, will the recovering drug addict have sorted herself out and launched another bid to win back custody of her twins?” poses our Weatherfield insider. “Or is it Abi’s bad behaviour that results in her trip to court? Where Abi is involved, nothing is ever straightforward!”…

Sisters will be doing it for themselves in the Dales next year – with a special episode devoted solely to the show’s female cast. “We’re doing something rather special on 8 March, International Women’s Day,” explains head honcho Jane. “We are going to have an episode that is produced by a female, directed by a female and written by a female. The entire cast will be female including all background artists, and we’ll have almost an entire female crew. What they don’t realise is we’ll be giving some of the men the traditional female roles for the day, so we’ll all be bringing in our kids for them to look after!”…

It’s incredible to think that Sarah is going through this ordeal without her dad Andy by her side. Sadly, he’s been AWOL since going on the run back in 2016, and it doesn’t look as if he’ll be back any time soon! Andy was framed by his vengeful ex, Chrissie White, who planted the gun her son Lachlan used to shoot and almost kill his grandad, Lawrence. Andy was forced to abandon his kids and true love Bernice, leaving a trail of broken hearts in his wake. In the real world, Andy’s exit happened after actor Kelvin Fletcher decided to pursue other interests – such as spending a lot of time pumping iron, apparently, as Kelvin is now sporting a six-pack and guns that The Rock would be proud of!…

“The more Sharon and Keanu try to resist one another, the more they end up falling back into each other’s arms…” sighs Danny Walters, who plays Keanu, as he joins us for a chat before starting work. It’s a classic tale of forbidden passion for Walford’s hottest couple, whose unexpected romance has been going down a storm with delighted viewers. However, while the countdown’s on for a corking face-off, should Phil find out that his wife has fallen hook, line and sinker for a much younger bloke, Danny reckons Keanu is currently too besotted to care… The connection between Sharon and Keanu is sizzling, Danny!

1 Jessie Wallace was born as Karen Jane Wallace on 25 September 1971 to father James, a telecommunications engineer, and mother Annette, who was a secretary. Her parents divorced when Jessie was three years old, so she was raised by her dad, and saw her mum at weekends. She grew up in north London and has two sisters, Danielle and Joanne. Jessie adopted her stage name after her grandmother. 2 At the age of 21, Jessie moved to Portugal, working in bars for just over six months. When she returned to the UK, she trained as a make-up artist at the College of North East London. Later, Jessie worked at the Royal Shakespeare Company for two years, where she met actor – and future Game Of Thrones star – Iain Glen,…

Corrie star Charlie De Melo (aka Imran) had a rather hot wake-up call recently, when he was greeted in bed on the morning of his birthday with a cake adorned with flaming candles, courtesy of his girlfriend – and former Street co-star – Nicola Thorpe (who played Pat Phelan’s daughter Nicola Rubinstein). “Had the best day,” he said in a Twitter post about Nicola’s birthday treats for him. “You’re the best!” Aw!…

REMEMBER WHEN SUNDAY NIGHTS were famously the home of gentle, undemanding telly? BBC1 doesn’t seem to, because after gripping the nation with Bodyguard, it has followed it up with another brilliantly tense series where we’re never quite sure who to trust. We don’t think Jenna Coleman has ever been better than she is here in the role of Joanna, a young mum caught up in a media storm after the disappearance of her baby while visiting Australia with her husband. She switches from vulnerable to knowing and back in the blink of an eye as the story gradually unravels……

The show formerly known as The Big Family Cooking Showdown returns to our screens this week, and it’s under new management. Now hosted by Celebrity MasterChef winner Angellica Bell and Tommy Banks – the youngest-ever chef to receive a Michelin star – they’ll be judging, too. We called up Angellica and Tommy to find out what we can expect from this refreshed series… What can you tell us about the new format of the show? Angellica We’re celebrating the fact that a lot of people love cooking at home with their families, and are really proud of what they do. So series two is an extension of that. We’ve changed the name a little bit, and we’re stripping it over three weeks…

When this year’s Springwatch marked the end of the ’Watches stay at Sherborne Park, we were keen to see where the show would head to next – but we never expected this. This series is going all the way to Squam Lake in New Hampshire, USA – and the team of Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan and Gillian Burke is very excited! “This will offer us an opportunity to look at parallels between what’s happening here, and some contrasts,” shares Chris. “There’s a lot of difference in migration, because in that part of the world it’ down through a continent. What we see, as part of a set of islands, is animals moving here as it’s warmer Some of the movements in New…

JACQUELINE IS BACK WITH DANIEL! Ex-EastEnder Jacqueline Jossa (Lauren Branning) has reunited with her hubby, Daniel Osbourne, after his recent stint in Celebrity Big Brother. The pair, who have two kids together, posed for a photo shoot in OK! magazine, with Jac revealing that, “Our wedding rings are firmly back on and we’re stronger than ever!” Just to prove it, the pair were later papped having a ‘good morning’ snog on their doorstep. Good on ’em! MADELEINE’S LOVE SPLIT Neighbours’ Madeleine West – who played doomed Dee Bliss from 2000 to 2003, and has recently returned as con artist Andrea Somers – has confirmed that she has split from her partner, celebrity chef Shannon Bennett. The couple have been together for 13 years, and are parents to six children. The…

Another week of hell sees Sinead turn to an unlikely confidant as she faces a terrible choice about the future of her pregnancy – former arch-enemy Ken. The Barlow patriarch finds poor Sinead in a terrible state, and she ends up blurting out the heartbreaking truth. This shocking moment comes after Sinead is suspended from work for taking a phone call to get her biopsy results. With her life in turmoil, and Daniel still blissfully unaware, Sinead needs a shoulder to cry on. “Sinead’s tragic news hits Ken like a ton of bricks,” whispers our Weatherfield insider. “He’s devastated to hear that she’s so ill, and the implications cervical cancer will have on the baby she and Daniel are expecting. They’ve been at odds in the past, but now Ken…

He might be incognito in the show, but in real life Adam Thomas – aka Adam Barton – has had some choice words for his screen missus. Fun-loving Adam took to Twitter on the night of Victoria’s first kiss with Matty to make his displeasure known by tweeting, ‘Nooooooooo’ and ‘Bitch’! It seems as if Adam has some unfinished business in the Dales – but we’d like to see Vic and Matty in a serious relationship before Adam returns. Imagine the fireworks when the brothers come face to face!…

It’s been all change at the top for the ITV soaps recently, with former Emmerdale chief Iain MacLeod hopping across the Pennines to take charge of Corrie . Iain’s work will be seen on screen from December, and he gives Inside Soap a sneaky peek into the future… Hi, Iain! What are your plans for Corrie for the months ahead? Corrie always needs to have big material in it, and it’s at its best when there’s comedy, too. My background in Corrie [Iain was story producer from 2009 to 2013] is that I like the funny stuff – but equally, I’ve worked on the tram crash, Tyrone and Kirsty’s domestic violence, Carla’s rape and Peter’s…

Charity and Vanessa are hot favourites to tie the knot before the year is out, with news of a Dales wedding this festive season! Emmerdale’s executive producer, Jane Hudson, has revealed that the soap is set to crack open the bubbly for two loved-up locals, yet is keeping the identity of the pair under wraps for now… “We have a wedding at Christmas – but we’re not going to tell you who it’s for!” teases Jane. “Let’s just say that it will bring a different flavour to the village.” Following a trying year revisiting the hell of Charity’s past, viewers were elated when ice queen Charity melted and told Vanessa that she loved her. The pair are one of the strongest couples in the Dales, and have proved that their…

It seems as if determined Mel will turn the tables on sneaky undercover cop Ray – and do some investigating of her own! Our sneaky snaps show star Tamzin Outhwaite, who plays Mel, filming on location for scenes that will see her knocking on the door of a woman and presenting her with Ray’s police warrant card. But what is she fishing for? “It’s no secret Mel is already suspicious of Ray and has even enlisted the help of her ex, Jack, to dig for dirt on him,” reiterates our Walford insider. “However, by the look of these pictures she is on a mission – and receives more than she bargains for!” Viewers witnessed Ray’s flirtation with a woman in E20 recently – and in these scenes, Mel appears to…

Glenn is not the only thorn in Simone’s side since her estranged hubby Louis has arrived back in the village – with her sister, Martine (Kéllé Bryan), in tow! “I’m sure Martine will drop a few clangers,” laughs Jacqui. “And I’m certain she’ll reveal some of their childhood. She’ll let everyone know exactly who she is.” Louis wasted no time in falling back into bed with Simone. But it’s soon revealed that something strange is going on with Louis’ complex love life… Has he been seeing Simone, Leela and Martine all at the same time? “I don’t know how he manages,” admits Jacqui. “He’s juggling the three of them. He must be having a sort of mid-life crisis!”…

The tension between Colby and his ex, Chelsea, gets much harder to ignore this week, after their boss partners them up at work! McCarthy has realised that there’s something going on between the pair, and when he discovers their previous relationship, he’s furious they didn’t mention it! As punishment, he forces Colby to show Chelsea the ropes – and insists that if they can’t work together, one of them will have to leave! Can Colby put his feelings aside for the sake of his job?…

Paul walks in on Leo and Terese this week, catching them locked in a passionate embrace! Leo tries to explain to his father just how he feels about Terese – but Paul doesn’t want to hear it. He can’t get over his boy’s betrayal and does everything he can to scupper his relationship with Terese. Paul offers Leo a job overseas – hoping to get him as far away as possible – before trying to convince Terese that she could never please a younger man! When smitten Leo and Terese stand their ground about their feelings, however, Paul lashes out. He flings Leo’s belongings over the balcony and fires him – not only as head of business affairs, but also as his son! Will Paul ever forgive the couple –…

CHAS & PADDY’S HEARTBREAK Watching Emmerdale’s Chas and Paddy welcome their daughter Grace into the world, knowing the girl would only live for a short time, was one of the most tear-jerking moments in soap this year… I would like to applaud Lucy Pargeter (Chas) and Dominic Brunt (Paddy) – I cried from the first minute to the last. I loved their imaginary fairy tale, taking Grace to the woods, where time flashed forward and they watched her grow to a teenager before her life was cut short back in real time. It was so beautifully written. It’ll take a long time for Chas and Paddy to recover. Louise, Leicester I cried my eyes out watching Chas and Paddy say hello, and then a swift goodbye, to their gorgeous little…

“If Keanu were King of Walford, he’d definitely pass a law that the rich must give to the poor – to make sure the Taylors had some money!” “ Sharon would be Keanu’s Queen, of course. I don’t need any explanation for that one! They’d be a powerful force, ruling together. But obviously Keanu’s mum Karen would be trying to dictate what they do…” “ Everyone would have to wear overalls – Keanu already wears them all the time in the Arches, so he’d make them compulsory for everybody else!” “ Bronson could be Keanu’s court jester – he’s the Taylors’ family dog, after all. He’d have to wear a little jester’s hat!” “Who would Keanu would put in the stocks? There’s a list! Jagger and the gang, Phil Mitchell,…

“We have a pin board in our canteen, and there’s always articles from Inside Soap on there,” says Neighbours’ Damien Richardson (aka Gary), as he joins us on the phone from Melbourne. “I walk past it every day, and I wonder why I’m never on that board! Hopefully now we’re doing this chat, next time I walk past I can say, ‘Look, there I am!’” We assure Damien that we do indeed write stories about Gary, as we love his dodgy antics! But it’s not Gary’s criminal activities we’re probing Damien about today – it’s his alter ego’s new romance with Amy. And the star tells us that he’s in favour of this unexpected pairing… “I actually pitched the idea of Gary and Amy getting together, as I thought they’d…

It’s a case of ice, ice, baby for two soap stars next year, when Dancing On Ice returns! First up, Corrie’s Jane Danson, aka Leanne, has announced she’ll be donning her blades to take part in the ITV dance competition – and although admitting she’s nervous, she’s had lots of advice. “I’m getting loads of tips from Samia Longchambon [aka Maria], Brooke Vincent [Sophie] and Antony Cotton [Sean]. Andrew Whyment [Kirk] has done it before, so I have some lovely support from the cast.” Does this mean Leanne will head off while her real-life alter ego is skating? “She’s not going too far,” says Jane. “Obviously it’s a huge commitment and I want to get stuck into it, but I’m going to have a quieter patch within the story. We’ve…

Gina’s forbidden feelings for Tim propel her on a mission to find a man of her own – but it looks set to end in disaster!

However, dodgy Dave will soon show his true colours when it transpires that he’s only after one thing… “Gina makes it clear that she isn’t interested – but Dave refuses to take no for an answer,” reports our Corrie source. “He grabs Gina when she tries to walk away, so she knees him in the goolies!” As Gina puts up a strong fight, will she manage to escape the scary situation unscathed?

Maya is still a bit of a mystery – and with Dr Cavanagh and Leanna not her biggest fans, we just had to ask Louisa if there is more to learn about the tousled temptress… Is there a chance that Maya might end up entertaining Jacob’s crush? There is a lot still to explore with this character. Maya hints later on down the line that she has slightly dysfunctional parents, or certainly a mother figure that is lacking – which has created more of a desire in Maya to be adored and needed. There are things in her past that have created the person she is now. Are you enjoying the various theories that Maya is bad news? Of course! As an actress it’s always fun to play a character…

Tyler makes a shock return to Ramsay Street this week, following his release from jail – but how will he react when he comes face to face with his old flame Piper? The last we saw of Tyler, he was cutting off all connections to Piper after his charges were upgraded to murder. However, now that he’s been released, it’s not clear if his feelings will be the same – or how Piper will feel about her former lover being back in her life. “Piper will always have a soft spot for Tyler,” explains Mavournee Hazel, who plays her. “She’s nervous to see him, because she feels guilty about moving on, despite him telling her to do so. When they meet, their intent is to work it out – but…

MRS WEBSTER Please help – this is driving me mad! There was a patient in Doctors recently with panic attacks, and I really recognised her. But where from? Sorry… I know that’s not much to go on! Ella, Swindon Are you thinking actress Naomi Radcliffe? Back in 2000, she played Kevin Webster’s second wife Alison – who killed herself after the tragic death of their baby. BROTHER BEYOND In Corrie, Liz said that her other son Andy wouldn’t come to his brother Steve’s wedding because he didn’t like Tracy. But did they even ever meet?

Gail’s golden boy usually gets a hero’s welcome when he returns to Weatherfield, but Nick better prepare himself for a shock, as there are few people waiting with open arms this time around. Instead, his family – doting mum included – is disgusted with him for being distant for the past 18 months, while they’ve suffered a series of terrbile ordeals. In reality, Nick’s absence was a chance for actor Ben Price to spend some quality time with his wife Alexandra and their children Paloma and Max, who live in Bath, Somerset. The commute to work was proving tough, and Ben wanted a chance to enjoy family life – but now he’s back, and his alter ego means business. “I didn’t want to work anywhere else, I love Corrie,” enthuses…

In the 1980s, Sharon was one half of a very popular crime-fighting duo in Cagney & Lacey, the US cop show which ran for seven series until 1988. Sharon starred as Sergeant Christine Cagney, with her detective partner Mary Beth Lacey played by Tyne Daley – and the close friends were thrilled to present the prestigious Best Soap trophy together at this year’s British Soap Awards… “We had such a good time,” says Sharon. “My husband [TV producer Barney Rosenzweig] came with us – he’s the man who put us together on Cagney & Lacey – and we had a lot of fun. “Tyne always writes the material for us, and she’d get so upset with me if I missed a word while we were rehearsing our speech. I was…

I know I’m very behind, but I’ve just started Game Of Thrones, and I think it’s great. I had started it once before, and got a bit confused by it! That’s the problem with drama serials, everyone’s giving you all these recommendations, and you’re like, “This is going to take months!” I thought Three Girls had really strong storytelling. But I had to watch it one episode a week – I couldn’t watch it one after the other because it was so hard-hitting. But I think it’s exciting that TV is willing to push the boundaries now, because dramas are getting more interesting to watch. I love watching old comedies on Gold. I was brought up on old-school stuff like Morecambe And Wise, and lately I’ve…

JENNIE McALPINE (Fiz Stape, Corrie ) OUT Pregnant Jennie has left the Street – now that her baby bump is getting too big to conceal! “We started with a mug, and then a handbag,” reveals the actress. “I kid you not, last week they hid it with a Ford Fiesta! They said, ‘Can we just move that car back a bit?’ I said, ‘Is this for my bump?’ They said, ‘Yeah, we can see it a bit, but it’s going to help’.” On finishing her final day of filming, Jennie wrote on Instagram: “Mine and bump’s last day on the cobbles for a while. No more hiding behind Ford Fiestas!” Winter JAKE RYAN (Ryan ‘Robbo’ Shaw, Home and Away ) OUT Jake is taking a…

HOLLYOAKS Imperfect storm! ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE IN A HUGE WEEK… Batten down the hatches folks, because there’s a storm coming to Hollyoaks village next week – and that’s without the freak weather!

BULLSEYE! No one in soap has bad luck like Ryan from Corrie . Things went wrong from birth, when he was swapped with the boy in the next crib! This week, actor Ryan Prescott was brilliant at playing his character’s disbelief as he was hit by calamity after calamity. But out of all of Ryan’s bad luck, the worst must be that he needed Sophie to lie to the police – just after she’d started going out with a top solicitor! What are the chances? There just wasn’t enough of Keanu to go round this week. We may be reading too much into this, but we’re picking up on subtle clues that Coronation Street is sponsored by the Co-Op. Why do the rich folk of Home Farm…
