Inside Soap UK的33-2025目录

Firstly, a huge thank you to those of you who have tuned in to our new podcast, Soap Scoop. We’ve had an amazing response to episode one, and there’s plenty more where that came from! Flick to p99 to find out who our next special guest star is (spoiler alert, they’re from a little village called Emmerdale and in a spot of bother this week!), and search for Soap Scoop on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts. Don’t forget to like and subscribe so we can bring you more! Meanwhile, voting for the Inside Soap Awards continues as we chat exclusively to some of your Daytime & Drama nominees on p54. As I write, our esteemed editor Sarah is in the studio with the gang from Corrie, who are…

Give up the ghost! My jaw was on the floor watching Hollyoaks when they revealed that Robbie had been a ghost for weeks! I’m rubbish at guessing twists so I didn’t see that coming at all. I thought Jez had given him Stockholm syndrome. Freddie, now Robbie? I’m gutted for the Roscoes! Katrina, Torquay WACKY WEDDING Wasn’t the Bernie and Dev wedding in Corrie hilarious? From Debbie’s singing and mad outfit, to David making a rubbish usher, to the quads vomiting at home, to Bernie raving down the aisle. Please can we have more of this fun instead of the cop shop? I also loved the unexpected vows between Bernie and Dev at the hospital. They’re perfect together. Please don’t split them up! Bea, Dudley We couldn’t agree more, and…

“M andy set the precedent for girl power! declares Emmerdale star Lisa Riley, as we sit down for an exclusive chat to mark the anniversary of Mandy’s first appearance. “She says what women want to say, but are too frightened to say! Her one-liners are amazing.” Cast your mind back 30 years, and the whirlwind of Mandy Dingle was a vision in lime green and double denim, flirting up a storm with floppy haired Dave Glover. She was introduced at the wedding of her cousin Tina, for one episode only. That was until producers saw her potential and made her an integral part of the Dingles. And thank heavens they did! Lisa soon became a star in her own right and left to pursue other roles – she never imagined…

Bad-boy beginnings “Darren was a villain at first, with a chip on his shoulder – he’d been away in America then came back to live with his father, who he had a lot of resentment towards. Slowly it all came out about Darren’s own issues and insecurities. I started playing it as Darren thinking he was being funny when he said mean things, but was just misunderstood. He’s the guy who always says the wrong thing, and eventually you realised his heart was in the right place.” Fashion crimes “In the early days I’d get a shock every day in Darren’s wardrobe! String vests, leather pants, gold chains, a furry trench coat – it helped bring the comedy to the character, and as ridiculous as the clothes were, when you get…

EDEN FOWLER HOME AND AWAY BEST DAYTIME STAR It’s been a whirlwind year for Home and Away’s Eden. She’s reconnected with her parents and siblings, making the Fowlers one of the Bay’s strongest families, and is now planning her wedding to fiancé Cash! Stephanie Panozzo tells us what a Best Daytime Star win would mean to her… How does it feel to be up for Best Daytime Star? I just feel so honoured, and I’m so thankful to all of our incredible fans in the UK. We put so much work in, and it’s so rewarding. I need to get to the UK, because I’ve never been! Did you enjoy getting to sing when Cash proposed to Eden? I love singing just as much as acting. So to be able…

BULLSEYE! From Steve slithering down a pole the night before, to Bernie slipping upstairs to ‘butter Dev’s croissant’ the morning after, the Winter-Alahan wedding was an absolute joy. Even our compulsory weekly visit to Weathy Gen was a heart-warming experience for once, as the pair exchanged their vows with their bonkers blended family around them. More please, Corrie! You should never tell others how to parent their children but… SORT THIS OUT, Ross. Before he kills someone. Trust fun sponge Nick to shun the loud dress code for Dev’s stag… At least Glenda understood the assignment. Johnny’s ChatGPT has had an absolute mare. Trend alert! Rubbish burglaries gone horribly wrong. Stay in school, kids! Kit’s in A&E so often they’re gonna start charging him rent. Now you’ve gone and done…

Lynne McGranger turned Irene Roberts into a true soap icon, and now her contribution to Home and Away has been recognised by winning Australian TV’s most prestigious award! Lynne, who is due to leave the Bay after three decades, bagged the Gold Logie for Most Popular Personality at the recent ceremony down under, equivalent to the UK’s TV BAFTAs and NTAs rolled into one. It was quite the night for the star – the longest-serving actress on an Aussie drama – as she also won the Silver Logie for Best Lead Actress. During an emotional acceptance speech, Lynne vowed to keep her award in her handbag so she can remember her big achievement wherever she goes! Congrats, Lynne!…

Roo leaves her dad concerned this week, when she annouces she plans to adopt Cohen! After Cohen is hospitalised with tonsillitis, maternal Roo goes into panic mode – so dad Alf steps in to reassure her. As he bonds with Cohen over fishing magazines, Alf is touched and tells his daughter he’s proud of her. Buoyed by her father’s support, Roo reveals that she wants to apply to adopt the youngster – but Alf shockingly objects, worried that Roo will get her heart broken! Will Roo push on with her plan against Alf’s wishes?…

Vanessa is, and has always been, Charity’s voice of reason, so it’s no wonder that she went to her when she was feeling vulnerable and scared. They still have such a strong connection, and I can’t help but hope there are plans to reunite Vanity! Rochelle Don’t get me wrong, I loved Charity and Vanessa together – but surely Ness deserves more than a drunken lunge? Charity spent the whole time banging on about Mack, so even though it feels like their marriage is doomed, I’m not convinced it’s meant to be with her and Vanessa, either!

It wasn’t long ago that Sarah was keeping vigil at Kit’s bedside after he was brutally stabbed.

Having had his car searched by Kit before his meeting, Eli is furious when the cop turns up at the factory – leading Sarah to lock her client in the office! As Tina tells us, Sarah lives to regret her spur-of-the-moment move… Hi, Tina! Can you talk us through Sarah’s state of mind right now? Before Eli, Sarah’s in a positive place. Work and relationship-wise, things are going well.…

BOBBY COSTELLO HOLLYOAKS BEST NEWCOMER SCHUEY WEEVER WATERLOO ROAD BEST DRAMA STAR It looks as though Waterloo Road’s resident bad boy Schuey is turning over a new leaf, with a new foster home and a new romance in the last series.

Laura-Jayne snoops behind the soap headlines… Corrie viewers can expect big changes at the Rovers, when Eva Price returns to take charge of the iconic pub! Cheering news of former star Catherine Tyldesley’s cobbles comeback reaches us as Sally Ann Matthews – who’s played ex-landlady Jenny on and off since 1986 – confirms that she’s set to leave the Street… “I was supposed to stay for five months but ended up doing an extra 10 years because I loved it so much!” explains Sally Ann. “It’s time, however, to play those parts I always hoped I would when I’d ‘grown up’. Thanks to Trafford Wharf Road [where Coronation Street’s studios are based] for the memories and endless laughter.” While we’re super-sad to be losing Jenny, what a twist that Eva…

Hi, Lawrence. How is Mack coping with Charity’s surrogacy? He’s a bit like a yo-yo when it comes to the surrogacy. And in my opinion, rightly so, given how they nearly broke up two years ago. It’s a lovely thing that Charity is doing for Sarah, but I do think that he is right to be concerned and worried given their past history. Charity has recently kissed Vanessa. How do you think Mack would react if he found out? This is a hard one. I’d like to say he’d be upset, but we can’t forget how his son Reuben came into this world. I’d also like to think that they’d be strong enough to get through it, but it would upset Mack, especially as he’s out on his ear. He…

And is she ready for love again after evil Joel broke her? “Just as Dee-Dee thinks she’s met a nice guy, things immediately get complicated,” begins our Corrie source. “She can’t help how she feels about Ollie – though is he worth risking her career for?” Ollie is in the office for a meeting and the spark between him and Dee-Dee is obvious. Once he’s left, giddy Dee-Dee confides in Alya she’s smitten, but is concerned a romance would be viewed as a conflict of interest. When Dee-Dee runs…

Guilty Emily prays for forgiveness this week after she tries to plant an unholy smacker on the Reverend Ashley! The vicar has been a big support to Emily in recent times, and she’s chuffed when he encourages her to go for a job as a nursery nurse, boosting her confidence with his wise words. Later, Sam confides in Emily about marking the anniversary of Alice’s death, so she speaks to Ashley – who suggests a memorial service. However, when Ashley mentions this to emotional Sam, he rages at Emily for discussing it without asking. Fleeing into Ashley’s arms, upset Emily misreads the vicar’s comforting hug and heads in for a smooch... Elsewhere, it’s a real case of kissing cousins as Eli cheats on cousin Chas with cousin Debbie! Dingles, eh?…

BEST BUDDY “I love working with Ali King [Carla]. We spend a lot of time together and share a dressing room. We get on really well, and we’re very lucky when we get to work with each other. Ali’s character is very fast-spoken so she usually has a lot to learn and do, but we have fun!” BUMPY RIDE “My most recent scene was out on Rosamund Street in a car with Gareth [Todd], James [Theo] and Josh, who plays Harry. I say, ‘I’m really sorry, I shouldn’t have given him that milkshake!’” ALL CHANGE “My favourite set was the Platts’. I do love the new set, but it hasn’t got that nostalgia of Gail and Audrey any more. Now my favourite is Sarah’s flat. I’d happily live in there…
