It was Andy who slept with the bride before her wedding, and it was he who stole a kiss from Bernice behind girlfriend Chrissie’s back a few weeks ago. Andy is genuinely worried that Lawrence is gay and Bernice’s marriage is a sham. But with his ex single again, what does that mean for him? “It’s going to be a hell of a mess,” predicts our Dales spy. “Chrissie has fallen in love with Andy, and she has plenty of reason to believe he feels the same way. To discover she’s been betrayed by her ex-husband’s brother will be bad enough – but to learn her stepmother is also involved will be…

As she takes a test – hoping and praying that she might be pregnant after all – the wait is agony for Belle. But whatever the result, we can reveal that there’s definitely more drama to come for Belle in the coming weeks, as her storyline takes a rather unexpected turn… “Some really surprising twists occur,” promises Dales producer Iain MacLeod. “It is different from anything we’ve seen before on Emmerdale.” Whatever lies ahead, young actress Eden Taylor-Draper – who plays the troubled teen – reckons that Belle and Dr Bailey may still have a chance to make it work…

“WILL PAUL FORGIVE HIS NAN IF HE FINDS OUT SHE KEPT HIM AND HIS MUM APART?” This is the moment when Paul comes face to face with his mother, Jenny – and hasn’t the foggiest idea who she really is! After Jenny pitches up in Walford, it becomes clear that Pam has lied to her grandson about why Jenny isn’t in his life. So what is his mum’s story – and why has she suddenly decided to make contact? “Jenny is the former partner of Les and Pam’s son, Laurie, who passed away after Pam helped to end his life,” our EastEnders insider reminds us. “There’s been no mention of her until now, and we’re finally set to find out why! “We know that Pam is very protective of Paul,…

No one in Emmerdale seems more perfectly balanced between good and evil than Robert Sugden – you can all but see the angel and the devil perched on each shoulder, whispering their suitably caring or cruel counsel. Recently, the angel has had the upper hand, as Robert’s love for Aaron has brought out the very best in him. This week, Aaron hopes the time has come to find a place of their own. However, he’s mortified when Robert fails to fully support this plan. The thing is, Robert has some concerns of his own, as the police try to build a case against him for bribing a witness during the trial of Aaron’s father. Moreover, that same witness – scallywag Ryan – is attempting to blackmail Robert in exchange for…

FILMING LABOUR scenes shouldn’t feel too daunting for Chizzy, who pretended to give birth back in 2012 when Mo delivered surrogate baby William.

PAT PHELAN CORRIE FIRST IMPRESSIONS When Phelan first appeared back in 2013, we found him entirely repellent – especially after he blackmailed Anna into sleeping with him.

I saw a few films last year that I enjoyed, Legend and The Revenant , but my favourite genre is mafia films. The Godfather Part II will always be my favourite, unoriginal as that is! They’re very male worlds, there’s something about that machismo I find interesting. And the shiny suits and the slicked back hair – what can I say, I’m just an absolute sucker for it! I’ve been watching Bloodline on Netflix, I’m obsessed with it, I think it’s absolutely brilliant. It’s a very strong family story, and I come from a big family so that’s always a thing I warm to. And I think it’s just done so subtly – the writing is superb, and the acting…

So she decides to seize the initiative and tempt Bailey with an offer she believes he can’t refuse… “Charity starts digging for information,” shares Emma Atkins, who plays Charity. “She wants to know what happened before because she’s sceptical about Bailey, and so tries to get his estranged wife, Angie, onside to gain information on how much of a player he is.

As Leanne struggles with her news, how will her son Simon react when he’s told his mum is expecting? Leanne was the victim of Simon’s terrible rages several times – including one that put her in hospital. And although the boy seems to have his issues under control, could the news that Leanne is carrying his little brother or sister bring them flooding back? “I hope not, because Leanne makes the point that she won’t love Simon any less,” Jane tells us. “She had a tough upbringing and her parents’ marriage failed, so she wants to try to give back to Simon and her own child.” The question is: will Simon understand this when his mum drops the bombshell? Or might his violent temper lead to a tragedy for Leanne?…

BAT’S MY GIRL! Hollyoaks’ Nicole Barber-Lane (Myra) took a swipe at co-star Juan Pablo Yepez (Diego) recently – but it was all in good fun on the cricket pitch!

We’re not too proud to admit it: very few shows on TV make us blub in the way that Long Lost Family does. It’s the simple but powerful human stories it tells, of people who’ve spent years searching for a relative after a lifetime of separation – and this latest series certainly features some of its most emotional tales to date. “When me and Nicky were filming the first series, we knew it was special,” reveals Davina McCall, who hosts the show. “There were a couple of times when we were at the reunions and we’d hidden behind a bush watching people meet. Both of us had been sobbing, and I thought, ‘This is really different from anything else that’s been on television’. After the first…

It’s already been a big hit in Ireland, and now viewers in the UK will get a chance to see this new crime drama. Set in the fictional coastal town of Red Rock, it follows the interactions between the local police, or Garda as they are known there, and two warring families, the Kielys and the Hennessys. Inside TV got on the blower to Jane McGrath – who plays cop Sharon Cleere – for a full interrogation… What can you tell us about the show? It’s based around Red Rock’s local Garda station and features two feuding families. I suppose it’s unique in a way because you get a keyhole view into the world of the Gardai. What I love about the show is that it really throws the audience…
