Debbie Dingle is back in the Dales this week, and we all know what that means... trouble! It’s amazing to think that Debbie has been in the show for 15 years, and all of them dramatic. Often child actors – Charley was 14 when she took on the part – flounder when the show takes them to adulthood. The solution normally sees the character heading off somewhere for a number of months, then returning with the new head of a more experienced actor on their shoulders. But Charley’s performance over the years has seen Debbie go from troubled child to even more troubled adult, and only made the character of Debbie more complex and fascinating. And with the return of Charity from jail last year, it means she, Cain and…

One person who is shocked to the core by Debbie’s return is Ross. He was devastated after she left, and Debbie coming back reignites those passionate feelings. But is Debbie seeking a romantic reunion with her troublemaking ex-boyfriend? “You never know!” teases Charley. “It was all a little bit weird when she left, so I’m sure they’ll pick up something. But whether they get back together or not, I’m not sure. All I know is there will be some sort of drama between these two!”…

SNEAK PREVIEW! Coronation Street bosses are lining up a sinister new storyline for Bethany Platt, which will see the vulnerable teenager sexually exploited by nasty newcomer Nathan! Bethany will continue to grow closer to the sleazy salon boss in the coming weeks and months, eternally grateful that he saved her after she overdosed on diet pills at Christmas. However, his true intentions will become dreadfully clear to viewers when it transpires that Nathan is secretly grooming her… “It’s been clear to the audience from day one that Nathan is bad news – but poor, unsuspecting Bethany will remain completely oblivious,” whispers our Corrie insider. “She trusts this man who saved her life, and believes him when he says he wants to be her friend and help her. Little does…

While his relationship with Rhona may be deteriorating, scheming Pierce succeeds in one thing this week – as it seems he’s managed to scupper Chas’ fledging romance with the recently returned DS Wise. Determined Pierce wants to get Chas back together with Rhona’s ex Paddy, as he’s convinced that if this happens, Paddy will no longer be a threat to his relationship with Rhona. But DS Wise – whom Chas had a brief flirtation with last year – has thrown a spanner in the works, as it’s clear a spark still remains between the Dingle dame and the handsome cop. It’s not surprising Chas has been delighted to see Wise again – enduring several disastrous dates with Paddy means she gets great comfort from the detective’s presence. But Pierce has…

“CAMERON IS VERY SCARED - THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR HIM TO UNRAVEL BIG TIME!” Killer Cameron is left sweating this week, after Courtney and Tegan find a body in the lake. When a struggle ensues as he tries to stop his secrets being revealed, are the girls set to be his next victims? The pair decide to tag along after Peri organises a girlie weekend for her and Leela at the cabin. However, Leela is unaware that it’s a surprise, and Cameron is there waiting for her. The newly-weds’ alone time is soon disturbed, though, when they hear a chilling scream – and when Cameron emerges, he sees Tegan and Courtney standing over a familiar corpse… “Courtney accidentally throws Tegan’s phone into the lake and it disturbs one of Cameron’s…

Loadie’s completely lost for words this week, after opening the front door to find his late wife Dee standing bold as brass in front of him! Dee’s looking very well, considering she was meant to have died in a freak accident 14 years ago! It’s no wonder Toadie looks as if he’s seen a ghost… “Oh, Toadie totally freaks out!” reckons Ryan Moloney, who plays him. “He’s in complete shock at seeing her again – so as she explains where she’s been, he’s not really digesting all the details.” After Toadie gets over the initial bombshell that his dead wife is actually alive, and invites her in, Dee tells him where she’s been all these years. It seems that after the accident – which saw the car Dee and Toadie…

FAIR CITY Niamh’s plan finally comes to light this week – when Paul’s accountant reveals that his accounts are empty! As he tries to contact Dermot, Niamh unnerves Hayley by offering her a deal… Elsewhere, Debbie feels under pressure to secure a new home, and she turns to Tommy about finding a place together. Also, disaster strikes for Eoghan on his way to an interview. RIVER CITY Greig asks Andy to stay quiet about his job opportunity this week, but the news soon spreads to Lorna – leaving Greig to wonder just why Andy betrayed him. Before long, tempers run high… Meanwhile, Caitlin takes to the stage at the Tall Ship’s Burns Night, but is disappointed as the spotlight falls on Pete. Plus, Bob’s latest date is too good to…

“NICK IS WORRIED HE MIGHT LOSE IT ALL AND BE LEFT ALONE AGAIN” For someone about to welcome a new baby into the world with the love of his life, Nick Tilsley is sporting a rather glum expression Worried that his former love rival Peter is going to steam in and steal Leanne – and his happiness – Nick is struggling to keep a level head, a situation naughty Peter definitely enjoys toying with! Of course, this has often ended with the two men heads and does this week. But actor Ben Price, who plays Nick, reveals he’s got used to the two characters’ rough and tumble… “I actually missed all this when Chris Gascoyne [Peter] was away from the show, as we ve been scrapping for a few years!…

1 “John Paul was my first telly crush, so I was really in awe of James Sutton when I met him! I was obsessed, and I still get silly when I see him now. James is lovely, though, I tell him all the time that I used to fancy him.” 2 “When I first arrived at Hollyoaks I was very nervous, but my screen family made me feel so welcome. Karl Collins [Louis], Jacqui Boatswain [Simone] and Duayne Boachie [Zack] are all phenomenal.” 3 “ Kiza Deen , who played Sonia, made me laugh so much when she was here. We would be rolling round on the floor of our dressing room, crying with laughter! She’s hilarious – we already have dates in the diary of when we will see…

Mum wants to call her Lynette, but her dad prevails, and Tracy Lynette Langton is christened at St Mary’s Church, with support from godparents Ken Barlow , Betty Turpin and Emily Bishop . AGE MONTHS Tracy saves a life after babysitter Ena Sharples takes a tumble. Tracy’s cries alert neighbour Emily, and Ena is rushed to hospital.

RACY TRACY Corrie’s Tracy was wearing a really nice black, sequin dress over Christmas – it had cut-out bits on the shoulders. Do you know where I can get one of them, please, Sarah? Kimberly, London Tracy’s sequin flippy dress is from Warehouse, and is currently in the sale for £15. It also comes in navy, if black’s not your colour. NOT ON YOUR ELLIE I recently saw an advert for the job website Reed, and the lady in it looked really familar. I think she was in Hollyoaks, but who did she play? Gabby, York The actress in question is Sarah Baxendale, and she was indeed in Hollyoaks as Ellie Mills – wife of the soap’s original serial killer, Toby! She left in 2005 and…

“Initially, I had a drink with Kym, and she talked through her story. This is Michelle’s story, played brilliantly by Kym, with a lot of her experience brought to it. And we did some other research as well – we watched documentaries, listened to podcasts, went on forums, read blogs, and pulled together all sorts of different experiences through that. “When we put it all together, I took the unusual step of showing Kym the storyline, which I don’t think I’ve ever done before. She read it beat by beat, before the writers had it to write the episodes. I just wanted to make sure that there were no surprises, and that this was what she wanted. “Kym will have recognised bits of herself in there, and there would have…

Rosie Webster’s return to the cobbles is shaping up to be telly gold, if these latest sneak pictures are anything to go by! Last week, Inside Soap brought you the first snaps of Rosie, with her and Sophie getting up to all sorts of mischief at the allotments – like Rosie puckering up for a kiss with Brian! However, the wild child’s antics won’t end there. Here she and her sister are again, this time traipsing around a dodgy-looking estate… “Rumour has it that Sophie will catch up with her sibling as she tries to track down a drug dealer,” snitches our Corrie source. “Rosie is clutching a bag, which is believed to contain cocaine, but would she really be so stupid as to get mixed up in something highly…

Actor Cameron has embraced being the village’s top killer, but bad boys need love too – and Cameron wishes his alter ego had wooed a few more women before burying bodies became top of his agenda… “It would have been nice if he’d had a few more girlfriends – Freddie has had so many!” laughs the star. “Celine and Leela were great, but I would have liked for him to have had a bit more romance. That’s the one thing I feel Cameron needs. “I do kind of miss that misunderstood character who was essentially a good guy wanting to be a dad,” adds Cameron. “But people need killing in Hollyoaks and I’ve really enjoyed playing the duplicitous side to him. Playing a nice guy would get boring!”…

“IF DEBBIE HAD BEEN BORING, I MAY NOT HAVE COME BACK!” Life seems to have been pretty crazy for Debbie Dingle since she fled Emmerdale for a new start in France – but for actress Charley Webb, the only dramas in the past year have been domestic ones. Charley has spent her time away on maternity leave, raising her second son Bowie – who was born in December 2015 – and his six-year-old brother Buster, alongside her partner and co-star Matthew Wolfenden (David). However, as she sits down for a chat before she begins filming Debbie’s return scenes, she tells us she couldn’t resist stepping back into Debbie’s shoes… “I love it here!” exclaims the 28-year-old. “There’s always something going on with Debbie, and I’ve missed Emmerdale, even though I’ve…

WHILE BEN IS synonymous with the Platt family, his real-life clan – wife Alexandra and children Maximilian and Paloma – live in Bath, Somerset, some 300 miles away from the Corrie studios! “I’m with the Platts more than I’m with my own family,” he explains. “We’re all so close and really do get on. The best times I’ve ever had on the show are sitting at No 8 and just laughing. No matter how tragic the Platts’ lives are, it’s the happiest place to be!” And although splitting his life between two places has it’s drawbacks, positive Ben looks on the bright side. “I spend a fair bit of time in the car as it’s a three-and-a-half hour drive,” he says. “Not that I mind, though, as I enjoy having…

“THIS STORYLINE IS A LOT DARKER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE!” Dominic Copeland is almost as unlucky as some of the doomed patients who find themselves on the Holby operating table! After the horror of his ex-boyfriend Lee, the poor chap finally thought he’d found ‘the one’ in colleague Isaac, only for the super-controlling surgeon to reveal his true colours last year. A vicious argument between the pair at Christmas saw Isaac verbally ripping Dom to shreds, before literally trampling on the memory of his dearly departed friend, Arthur Digby. Sadly for Dom, though, this is just the beginning of a huge story, with star Marc Elliott – who plays Isaac – anticipating a big reaction from the audience… “I’m not on any social media, so I’m completely oblivious…

MOCK CHICK! Danny Dyer gives his take on singing legend Amy… EastEnders’ Danny Dyer (Mick) gave soap – and music – fans a treat when he performed on Channel 5’s Lip Sync Battle UK recently. The star left his Walford alter ego behind to channel the late Amy Winehouse , as he took to the stage wearing a red mini-dress. Miming along to Back To Black, he wowed viewers with his take on the iconic star – but this isn’t the first time we’ve seen the actor don a red dress and long brown locks. Danny made a remarkable impression on audiences when he appeared as a drag queen for artist Lucy Rose’s music video last year. What would Linda say? Laid-back brides! Looking like a pair of honeymooners…

WE KNOW, WE KNOW - chances are, your heart is sinking at the thought of yet another singing show. But we’ve grown very fond of this programme quite quickly - we love how it accentuates the positive by focusing on the good auditions and not dwelling on the ones who didn’t make the grade. We love the panel’s (mostly) constructive feedback. And above all else, we love Graham Norton and Mel Giedroyc on presenting duty , injecting warmth and humour, and occasionally poking fun at the whole thing. It’s managing to brighten up our Saturday nights for sure.…

“THE HAT IS KEY TO THE CHARACTER - A HAT AND A BIG COAT AND A STICK AND A REALLY DODGY HAIRCUT .” Tom Hardy talks us through the visual shorthand of James Delaney, his character in Taboo “I DON’T GET OVERLY ANXIOUS ABOUT HOSTING – I TRY TO TREAT IT WITH A RELAXED ATTITUDE!” Dance Dance Dance presenter Alesha Dixon is staying chilled on set “I DON’T KNOW IF I’M GOING BACK TO GAME OF THRONES , I HAVEN T ’ BEEN ASKED. I HOPE THEY VE KEPT THE BEARD!” Endeavour’s Roger Allam isn’t sure what the future holds for his fantasy character Illyrio “YOU CAN’T WORK ON THE VOICE AND NOT HAVE A GO ON ONE OF THE CHAIRS. I DO IT EVERY YEAR!” Emma Willis shares the…

This isn’t the first time Bridge Street market has been under threat. Only three years ago, it was almost moved to nearby Spring Lane – but that market merged with Bridge Street, bringing traders such as Donna and Pam Coker to the Square. The traders have two unlikely heroes to thank for the market lasting even this long – Grant and Phil Mitchell! Back in the early 90s, a corrupt councillor was trying to close down the market for his own ends – even destroying Pete Beale’s stall to get his way. So the brothers, who were relatively new in the Square, took action by breaking into the council offices to steal paperwork proving the official was a wrong’un. Thanks, lads!…

The Holby gang could be set to lose two of their favourite colleagues this week, as Mo and Mr T reveal that they’re moving to Sweden for a year! Mo drops the bombshell on Darwin chief Jac when she returns from maternity leave, and introduces the team to her gorgeous baby boy, Charleston. Of course, Jac is disappointed with Mo’s decision to take 12 months off, and the two women clash. But when Mo and Mr T have a heart-to-heart and agree that neither of them is on board with the name ‘Charleston’, what else will they realise is troubling them? Will they really move abroad and leave Holby behind? Also this week… Fletch buys himself a new car with his inheritance money.…

She’s been engaged to Matthew for a while, but the only time Charley’s had a wedding dress on is to play out Debbie’s big day! She donned a beautiful gown when Debbie had her ill-fated wedding to Pete, so are there any plans for her to repeat the experience in real life? “Oh my God, no!” laughs Charley. “You’re joking, aren’t you? I’ve just had a new baby so I haven’t even thought about it. I’m the most laid-back person when it comes to things like that. I haven’t even picked up a wedding magazine. Matthew and I are happy the way we are and it’s not the most important thing at the moment. We’re focusing on the children – planning a wedding would tip me over the edge!” With…

You could have knocked us down with a feather when Lisa cheated on her lovely boyfriend Nathan – with his dad, of all people! Worse still, it wasn’t even a one-off, and before long she and Mac were up to mischief under Nathan’s nose once more. This week, Lisa finds herself in Mac’s arms yet again after a bust-up with Nathan over his friendship with Cleo. But as we sit down for a chat with actress Rachel Adedeji, who plays lusty Lisa, she tells us that she’s revelling in her Hollyoaks alter ego’s scandalous behaviour… We were stunned when Lisa slept with Mac the first time – what was your initial reaction to this story? I was quite happy! But only because I’m a big fan of David Easter [who…

Playing a soap character can be hard to shake off when an actor has been particularly popular with the show’s fans. So from Marc’s point of view, he’s pleased to be portraying someone who is worlds away from his former Albert Square alter ego, Syed Masood… “It’s brilliant as the characters couldn’t be more different,” enthuses the star, who appeared in EastEnders from 2009 to 2012. “Syed was fun to play and I’m amazingly proud of my time on the show, but he just didn’t have the chops that Isaac has. What is interesting about Isaac is that he’s way more alpha, far more successful – and a lot more driven. If anything, Syed wasn’t a manipulator and was more someone who could be very easily manipulated.”…

What was your reaction when you found out about the surrogacy story? …asks Jessie, via email Well, we’ve been down the surrogacy road before – with Steph offering to be a surrogate for her best friend Libby – so at first I was a bit like, ‘Oh, here we go again’. I was really interested, though, because it gave us a chance to explore a subject that’s relevant. I like that we touch on real topics. Do you personally think that Mark is the one for Steph? …asks Kayla from London No, I don’t. I like the idea of opposites attracting, but Steph’s had a very colourful life, and I just think that Mark is a bit too stiff for her. He has loosened up a bit since they’ve been…

I really loved The Missing – but I was away when it was on , so I fell behind and I had to get people not to talk about it while I caught up! But I just liked it so much, and I love The X Factor as well, that’s one of my shows of choice. It’s lovely watching Strictly , even after you’ve been on it – you know exactly what they’re going through . It’s such a lovely show, and they really do look after you – if anything, I get jealous watching it, thinking how I’d love to do it again! But I think my Strictly journey is well and truly over now… Coronation Street was always on…

It might still be another four months until the competition itself, but we have to sort out the very important business of picking an act to represent us at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Kiev. This Friday, the five shortlisted contestants will perform live so the public can vote for our winner – and superfan Mel Giedroyc is back to oversee it all. “The atmosphere last year was extraordinary!” enthuses Mel. “I was totally bowled over – the absolute joy and madness of the whole thing.” Last year the selection show was broadcast on BBC4, so Mel’s hopeful that the fact it’s been moved over to BBC2 this year shows that we’re taking the process seriously. “I think there is always interest in Eurovision,” says…

MICHELLE'S GRIEF I was an emotional wreck after watching the scenes where Michelle and Steve lost baby Ruairi in Corrie – and judging by your letters, I wasn’t the only one who was rocked by the tragic storyline… Watching Michelle and Steve lose their baby boy was utterly heartbreaking – the worst thing was them hearing his heartbeat in the episode before, and being told that he was okay. To then lose him after that was particularly cruel. Veronica, Weybridge I had to write in and praise Corrie star Kym Marsh for her moving performances in the scenes where her character Michelle lost her baby. We all know that Kym sadly went through something similar in real life, so for her to have to revisit those…

ARIES 21 MARCH - 20 APRIL   Maybe you planned a nice quiet holiday, but that was never likely to sit well with your impulsive Aries spirit.

BULLSEYE! There is nothing we love more than Letitia Dean at full pelt. And Sharon’s explosive reaction to the Square’s biggest secret didn’t disappoint: “Denise Fox is only having Phil’s baby!” she wailed. “I don’t get how that is even a physical possibility! Even on his last legs, he manages to disappoint! Stupid, stupid, stupid bastard!” Take a bow, Tish! Emmerdale is blessed with top totty such as Ross, Pete and Adam. And yet, when the plot calls for fellas to strip, it’s Jimmy and Bob who whip their clothes off. This is a crazy, mixed-up world we live in. Meanwhile, Hollyoaks brings us a new gay dating app: Tap A Torso . Is that Jimmy or Bob? Swipe left! Cain Dingle masquerading as a solicitor…
