We hope you’ve been enjoying our recent Inside Soap Awards themed photo shoots? Some of the prettiest cast of Corrie lay claim to our centre pages this week, and I’m as delighted to see them there as anyone. In fact, ‘relieved’ would be the more accurate word! Photo shoots such as these were just one of the uncountable aspects of the TV and publishing business that had to be put on hold through Covid, and we were rather worried that – like returning to busy trains or the cinema after lockdown – we had lost the knack. Happily, all four soaps generously glammed-up in force to support us, and it turned out to be just like riding a (quite complicated) bicycle. I hope you agree that – whatever your favourite…

Ratbag Stephen is rocked by a blast from the past this week, after his ex-wife Gabrielle arrives on the cobbles and threatens to reveal his true colours! The furious woman has no time for pleasantries as she tells him that she wants the €200,000 that Stephen stole from her company back – or she is going to the police. However, it’s not Stephen who is set to pay the price for his fraud, as the rotter schemes to pay off Gabrielle by robbing poor Audrey… “It’s been fairly obvious for a while that Stephen has been struggling financially, and that he’s up to something,” points out our Corrie insider. “He’s been getting his feet under the table at the factory and manipulating Sarah, while charming Audrey into putting him in…

Terrified Nicola has a public showdown with local vicar Charles this week – accusing him of protecting his guilty daughter, Naomi! Nicola was horrified to realise that Naomi was one of the girls involved in the violent attack on her, and is desperate for the police to bring her to justice. But when the cops fail to make an arrest, furious Nicola lashes out at Charles… “The accusations are flying, and there’s a huge argument – it’s complete chaos!” reveals Nicola Wheeler, who plays Nicola. “Of course Charles is going to support his daughter, but he’s also a vicar, and Nicola is in his congregation. Charles does behave badly – he has a responsibility to the community, so he shouldn’t be taking his daughter’s side.” It was after Naomi landed…

Jean throws herself into Kat’s hen night this week – but will it lead to a fall-out between her and best pal Shirley? Shirley’s not happy that the joint stag and hen night is taking place in her pub, given her chequered history with Phil. But when Shirley checks in on Jean, her pal gives her short shrift – assuring her that she doesn’t need to be patronised! However, will Jean realise that Shirley was merely looking out for her, and that she could probably use a friend too?…

You have to feel for poor Liv and Vinny, having both their mums poking their noses into their marriage! However, while Mandy’s always been over-protective of son Vinny, Bradley reckons that’s better than Sandra’s plotting… “Even though Vinny complains about Mandy, he’d much rather have her as a mum than Sandra!” laughs Bradley. “You couldn’t trust Sandra as far as you could throw her. But they’re both fiery characters who hate each other, so there’s been some great scenes between them. “Working with Jo [Mitchell] who plays Sandra has been amazing, it’s added a different dynamic to the household,” he continues. “I would love for Liv and Vinny to live happily ever after, but there always seems to be something that comes between them!”…

BEST ACTRESS & BEST STORYLINE GEORGIA TAYLOR Toyah Habeeb, Coronation Street Toyah might be going through one of the darkest times of her life, as she grieves for her husband Imran and faces trial for his murder, but it’s given Georgia Taylor the chance to shine with some incredibly intense performances that have rightly earned her a Best Actress nomination. Now the star hopes her character will soon be smiling again… Hi, Georgia! Imran’s death was one of the year’s big shocks, what was it like to film? We were on location for a week doing the car crash and it was like a school trip, everyone was buzzing. The director was amazing, we had drone shots, explosions, falling rubble, it was really exciting. It was the last week of…

BEST YOUNG PERFORMER ISABELLA FLANAGAN Hope Stape, Coronation Street PHOTOGRAPHY Rachel JosephSTYLING Bethani GowlandHAIR & MAKE-UP Becca Anderton& Aly Steer @ME agency Young star Isabella comes from one of the most talented families in soap land. Her twin brother William plays her on-screen cousin Joseph, while her older sister is well known for being the Dales’ April. But Bella reckons she gets to play the best soap character of all with naughty schoolgirl Hope… Hi, Bella! How does it feel to be nominated against your sister? Really good!

Laura-Jayne snoops behind the big soap headlines… Fasten your seatbelts for the return of the EastEnders we know and love – as Walford faces old and new kick off a fresh and exciting era for the show. New boss Chris Clenshaw hopes to bring the soap back to its roots, rewarding viewers by putting Albert Square’s iconic characters at the heart of the drama – starting with a fitting send-off for the greatest of them all, dearly departed Dot… “Everyone at EastEnders was truly heartbroken when June Brown [who played Dot] passed away earlier this year,” shares Chris. “June was always adamant that she never wanted Dot’s time to end while she was still with us, but she also knew that EastEnders would rightly say its farewells to Dot when…

Mason’s attempts to impress Ella backfire this week, leaving the schoolboy humiliated – and hungry for revenge! Mason has had a crush on Ella ever since he moved to the village, yet his attempts to woo her have always fallen flat. But after she rebuffs him this week, Mason violently lashes out! Hollyoaks’ Frank Kauer, who plays the lovesick teenager, tells us more… Hi, Frank! Is Mason still hoping to impress Ella? He’s always trying to impress Ella! But she’s always on and off with Charlie. Mason’s also getting a lot of advice from his family on finding the courage to ask Ella out. It’s interesting to see who he listens to, and who he doesn’t… Can you tell us about the forums Mason is reading? Mason signs up to…

What was your reaction when this storyline was pitched to you, Nathan? I just felt lucky, and super-grateful that I’ve been given some great, big stories. It feels humbling that people trust me with a story like this. Hopefully, I’ve done it justice. What do you know about James’ condition? I’ve spoken to a few people about it, and found that it can be hereditary. So there’s a scene where Aggie says that the rest of the family are going to have to get checked, because it literally could have happened to any of them. We all just take it for granted that our hearts are okay. Is James worried about the implications this could have for his career? Oh yeah, his main concern is wanting to get back to…

Walford bombshell Sharon has a sexy new man on her arm this week – but can he help her get over her ex-hubby Phil? With Phil about to tie the knot with Kat (see p4) Sharon distracts herself with new love interest Matt. Yet their date doesn’t exactly go to plan after Sharon agrees to meet him at the Vic, and they arrive there to find Kat and Phil’s hen and stag parties in full swing! “Sharon’s lived on Albert Square long enough to know that there is literally no escaping your ex!” laughs our Walford insider. “She’s doing the smart thing by attempting to move on from Phil with this new man – and Matt does appear to be a good catch. Although how is Sharon supposed to forget…

“I haven’t been off that khazi since we got back. Why did you make me eat ’orse?” “Well, we was in France, weren’t we?” EastEnders strikes another blow for European relations. “How about a ‘pre-loved’ section? When you’ve finished with your knickers, you post them on our website and people reserve them online. Then we either set up a collection booth – which I’m happy to man – or we send them out. We have to be more climate conscious.” Kirk’s new used underwear business is not to be sniffed at. “Come on. Don’t you think it’s about time somebody wiped that self-pitying, sanctimonious, miserable look off her face?” We love how much thought Janine puts in to her loathing of Linda… “Oh just sod off, Janine!” While Linda takes…

AN AFFAIR EXPOSED! After sneaking around for months, Chas and Al finally got caught in Emmerdale! But their secret seems to be safe with Belle, as it doesn’t look as though she will be spilling the beans anytime soon… Dingles truly do always stick together, even when they shouldn’t! It’s not a surprise that Belle agreed to harbour Chas’ secret about the affair. But what about Paddy? If the shoe was on the other foot, Belle would have told Chas everything. Surely Paddy deserves the same courtesy? | Mike, Leeds I can’t believe Chas is wasting precious time she could be spending with her dying mother, with Al! If she believes she has any future with him she’s deluded. When Faith dies, it will be too late to get that…

We’ve often said in Inside Soap that it’s both a shame and a blessing that we never got to meet Phil and Grant’s bad old dad, Eric. From passing commentary that we’ve heard over the years, it sounds as if he was a nasty piece of work – and star George Russo, who plays Eric in the flashback episode, can attest to that… “Eric is menacing – he has some issues,” grimaces the actor. “He’s in this sort of emotional pain that comes out sideways, and his family suffer because of his bad decisions. “To play Peggy’s husband is a dream job,” continues George. “And some of the physical stuff we did really jumped out at me. We did some fight choreography, which hopefully looks good on camera!” Meanwhile, Peggy’s…

BEST ROMANCE ELLE MULVANEY & JACK JAMES RYAN Amy Barlow & Jacob Hay, Coronation Street If you had told us a year ago that Corrie drug dealer Jacob would be dating Amy Barlow, and that they’d be the cutest couple on the cobbles, we’d have thought you were crackers. Yet the two of them are so adorable together that it’s earned them a Best Romance nomination – and stars Elle and Jack agree that their characters are made for each other… Hi, both! Are you pleased to be nominated for Best Romance?

Where did Webster’s Garage find overalls to fit Aaron? Did Kevin and Tyrone wear them while standing on each other’s shoulders? Annie Carter the Lockdown Baby is walking already! The way time is whizzing by, blink and she’ll be a teenage mum. Blink again and she’ll be running the Vic. We’re not sure why Stu’s even bothering with his flinty daughter or her vile mum. What a grim pair! EastEnders has a roomy new hospital set. Holby City leftovers is it? With all that space to play in, we fear a mass medical catastrophe is imminent, Walford! Goodbye then, shouty Stuart. EastEnders always seemed more attached to you than we were. Now we can turn the volume back up. BULLSEYE! When old characters return to a soap, it’s a…

While Walford’s old guard are very much the focus of the new era, there is no denying that the awesome Panesars have earned their place among the Square’s A-listers. And, after months of speculation and hype, here is your first look at Suki’s evil jailbird husband, Nish – played by popular actor Navin Chowdhry – who will turn the family upside down this autumn. “Nish is an interesting character – slightly unconventional, and with that brings drama and mayhem,” grins the star, who has enjoyed numerous telly roles in shows such as Doctor Foster, Our Girl and A Touch Of Cloth. “I think there’s a good man under there, but turmoil follows the Panesars around, so I’m excited to join in and set off a few more explosions and fireworks!”…

Robyn agreed to have a baby for her best pal and his partner, even though her own on-off boyfriend Paul made it perfectly clear that he wasn’t on board with the plan. And once he reads over the contract for the surrogacy, Paul confronts Robyn, pointing out that the contract makes the entire thing feel totally impersonal… When Robyn then goes back to Marty to ask if a contract is strictly necessary, alarm bells ring for Adi – he points out that it is indeed a business transaction, and they need a contract in place to protect all parties involved. Meanwhile, Charlie quizzes Robyn about her motivations for wanting…

BEST NEWCOMER PADDY BEVER Max Turner, Coronation Street After young David Platt spent years terrorising his poor mum Gail, it’s great to see him now on the receiving end of the same treatment from his own rebellious son, Max!
