Inside Soap UK 39 - 2018의 목차

Sometimes it seems as if the soaps are all thrills and spills – affairs, kidnappings and explosions happen almost every second episode. But once in a while, they hit you between the eyes in a rather different way, which happens in this week’s Emmerdale. Paddy and Chas take in the joy of their beautiful baby girl, before watching her slip away – a tragic fact they have spent months trying to come to terms with. “Dom and Lucy have been totally dedicated” As Lucy Pargeter and Dominic Brunt, who play Chas and Paddy, reveal over the page, this is a highly charged episode, which even manages a few surprises while the emotional truth plays out. As parents themselves, it’s a hell of an ask for Dom and Lucy to go…

Wherever Coronation Street’s Gina Seddon goes, trouble soon follows – and judging by these pictures, without her sister Sally’s guiding hand, the woman is set to be in big bother! However, there could be ructions of a different kind on the cards, with rumours that Gina and Tim are set to embark on an affair while innocent Sally languishes in prison. “Poor Sally, she already has to worry about surviving in jail, clearing her name and rescuing her reputation – and now saving her marriage might be added to the list!” shares our Street source. “Gina and Tim are leaning on each other for support, and at times such as this, feelings can get confused. Tim’s not the brightest, and Gina isn’t known for sensible decision-making,…

Corrie will welcome real-life war veteran Cassidy Little to the ranks in the coming weeks, when he arrives on the Street as Greg – a Paralympian and former Army mate of Gary’s. Greg is set to reach out to little Jack, who’s struggling after losing his lower leg as a result of sepsis – but might the inspirational newcomer help him face the future? “Greg comes in as a guy who grabs life by the horns and shakes really hard,” Cassidy revealed to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. “He tries to rub that attitude off on to Jack, who has problems with the way he looks now, and the way he interacts with other kids.” Cassidy had his own leg amputated below the knee while serving as a Royal…

It’s no wonder Sophie is conflicted about Ryan this week – he has form when it comes to drugs and accidents. Back in 2012, the pals were on a night out when Ryan got high on cocaine and chose to play chicken in the road. He was hurting after other half Tracy Barlow ditched him, and acting out while under the influence. Sophie believed Ryan might kill himself, so risked her own life to rush to his aid. Sadly for Sophie, she pushed Ryan to safety but was hit by a car herself, and left in a bad way. Initially, Sophie couldn’t feel her legs, though after physiotherapy regained her mobility. She begged parents Kevin and Sally not to report Ryan for his role in this accident, yet will she…

The new school term proves tough for Jack this week, as he admits he’s finding it difficult being among his class mates again. The young lad has only recently returned to school after losing his leg as a result of sepsis, so being among his old friends while adapting to life in a wheelchair will take some getting used to. However, when Brian wins a teaching post at the school, can he help Jack settle? To ease him back in, Brian tells Jack he can play computer games during break times. But as Jack admits to his father, Kevin, that everyone is treating him differently, will Brian’s dispensation turn out to be more hindrance than help?…

There’s a huge wrench in store for Ruhma this week, as she gets ready to drop off her son Shak at his university accommodation, in preparation for his first term. She’s already emotional when they arrive, but Shak is insistent that his mum must hold it together! It’s clear Ruhma is struggling as she finally drags herself away, however, and she can’t help but steal a look as Shak proceeds to introduce himself to his new neighbours. How will her beloved boy cope with his new life far away from home?…

DOC SHOCK I was watching ITV drama Strangers the other day, and I’m sure I recognised one of the actors from a soap. The character was called Martin, I think. Do you know who I mean? Jordan, Cardiff I do! Martin is played by Nicholas Bailey, who you probably remember from his role as Patrick’s son – Anthony Trueman – in EastEnders . WEDDED MISS? In Corrie recently, Beth told her new colleague Vicky that she and Kirk are practically married – but didn’t they get wed already? I remember their 80s-themed ceremony! Georgia You’re sort of right, Georgia – Beth and Kirk did indeed have an 80s-style wedding in 2015. However, when Beth’s son Craig got back in touch with his dad Darryl the following year,…

We’ll admit that when Hollyoaks’ Brody first arrived on our screens, appearing out of the water half-naked in Ibiza, we were definitely dazzled more by his tanned torso than by the depth of his character! Fast forward a year, and after charming his way into the viewers’ hearts – as well as many of the local ladies’ beds! – the hunk finally got his first big storyline, when the truth about his abuse at Buster’s hands was revealed. “I feel blessed that Hollyoaks trusted me with such big stuff,” grins star Adam Woodward (Brody), as we probe him about finally getting to flex his acting muscles, rather than just his actual muscles. “To me it felt like a massive responsibility, because if it wasn’t done properly,…

It’s been an explosive start for Neighbours newcomer Bea Nilsson. She’s been reunited with estranged sister Elly, manipulated by evil Finn Kelly, and locked up in a trailer – all within six months! Now star Bonnie Anderson, who plays her, tells us about Bea’s newfound friendship with Ned… Hi Bonnie! Bea and Ned share a kiss this week! How exactly does Bea feel about him? Bea really loves their friendship and how she feels very safe with him. She’s opened up to Ned more than anybody, and their friendship is getting more and more special. Bea still has her guard up every now and then, but it’s good for her to have a friend that she can lean on. Of course, she’s falling for him, and…

Those McQueens have given many a fright over the years with their foul mouths and garish get-ups, but it was star Jen Metcalfe (Mercedes) who was spooking people recently. Looking a far cry from her usual gorgeous self, the Hollyoaks actress was positively ghastly at Thorpe Park’s Fright Night Launch in Surrey. Jen was the host of a grisly banquet as she munched on edible and realistic-looking human body parts – made from chocolate – and red-hot blood soup, to celebrate six new live-action scare mazes ahead of Halloween. Sharing her excitement for her latest character, Jen expressed her joy at unleashing her inner demon with snaps of her transition from soap siren to grisly zombie.

They’re known for their glitz and glamour on screen, but the ladies of Hollyoaks keep their reign in the style stakes going outside of work, too. Dressed in gorgeous gowns for Boot Out Breast Cancer – a Gatsby-themed charity bash at The Principal Hotel in Manchester – stars Steph Waring (Cindy), Tamara Wall (Grace), and Nikki Sanderson (Maxine) were joined by ex-cast mate Jazmine Franks (Esther Bloom) in getting glammed up for the good cause!

What do a quality controller, a sponsorship consultant and the owner of a nut milk brand have in common? Well, apart from all having jobs that we don’t actually fully understand, they’re all among the 16 candidates vying for that £250,000 business investment from Lord Sugar – as long as they can avoid getting fired, that is. Ahead of the 14th series of the entrepreneurial reality show, we spoke to Lord Sugar’s trusted adviser, Baroness Karren Brady, to find out what she thinks of this year’s crop… What can you tell us about the candidates? Well, they’re a very mixed bunch. We’ve got everything from a tax inspector, believe it or not, through to a tree surgeon and every career background in between from fitness to IT. They’re a really…

In these uncertain political times, there is one constant that we cling to: the knowledge that a new series of Have I Got News For You is never far away. Sure enough, the topical comedy show returns for its 56th(!) series this week, and while we lack the necessary psychic powers to tell you exactly what it will be covering, team captains Ian Hislop and Paul Merton have their hunches. “The big American elections, the midterms happen in November,” Paul quickly points out when asked. “So that will be a story one way or the other for us.” “Domestically we’ve got a situation where all three parties are full of people who want to split, which is quite new and none of the party leaders are…

ADAM’S NEW PITCH Ever since Emmerdale’s Adam Barton went on the run after taking the wrap for Emma Barton’s murder, there’s been speculation as to if he’ll return. It doesn’t look as if it will happen soon, though, as actor Adam Thomas has landed a new role in BBC drama Pitching In, alongside former EastEnders bad boy Larry Lamb (Archie Mitchell). The series will be on air next spring. RITA’S REGRETS Ex-Walford resident Rita Simons (Roxy Mitchell) has revealed that she’s sorry that she and on-screen sister Samantha Womack (Ronnie) won’t be able to return to the Square. “I don’t want to say I’m disappointed we were killed off, but it’s a [Kate Oates, EastEnders’ new producer] can’t bring me and Sam back,” she said. Ronnie and Roxy returning at…

BULLSEYE! We know she’s an acquired taste, but we’re already very keen on Corrie’s Evil Evelyn. Having her be appallingly rude to Weatherfield royalty Ken, Rita and Roy was a stroke of genius, and her digs at Fiz have us hooting. But why is she being so secretive about her past? Did she truly lose everything in a house fire? Is she really Tyrone’s gran? It’s a mystery as intriguing as any ‘whodunnit?’! Jessie is 100 per cent “without a shadow of a doubt” certain that her jailed son Billy is innocent of GBH. Alas, soap law means he must therefore be as guilty as sin. Poor Jessie. Keanu having dirty talk with Sharon while standing in his pants is what television was invented for. Thanks,…

Pregnant Sinead is given terrible news at her 12-week baby scan this week, after a lump is found on her cervix. She and fiancé Daniel are excited to be expecting again, but Sinead has secretly been bleeding for the past few weeks. Terrified at what it might mean, the worried lass has kept quiet and hoped it would sort itself out. After finally confiding in her Auntie Beth that she’s pregnant and been having these troubling symptoms, Sinead takes the advice to get checked out – which is when the obstetrician discovers the lump. “Sinead feels that she has to protect Daniel from the truth” “It’s really sad, but Sinead finds this out during her first ultrasound appointment,” shares our Weatherfield insider. “She and Daniel are overwhelmed to see their…

Get out of jail! Neighbours’ executive producer Jason Herbison has hinted that we’ve not seen the last of Tyler! “It would be amazing to see Tyler return,” he teases. “It would be an interesting story – that’s all I can say at this point!” It never rains... Hollyoaks head honcho Bryan Kirkwood reckons that a storm set to strike the village in October causing devastation in its wake is just the start. “There’s emotion all through it,” he revealed. “We think the audience is really going to enjoy it.” Matters of opinion Lytton thinks that the upcoming storyline where Ruby is raped will cause debate – something that she is very happy about. “I think it is going to split the audience about views on consent and what happens to…

“She’s suffering now, but Corrie’s Sally is going to be running that prison in no time! I think even the toughest ‘top dog’ will end up doing what she says, just to shut her up!” …suggests reader Sam from Dublin “ Charity has had all the drama in the relationship with Vanessa. Perhaps it’s time we met Vanessa’s mum? She could be proper hoity-toity. I nominate Felicity Kendal.” …says reader Mo from Hull “I just don’t believe EastEnders’ Kat would be willing to live so far from the twins and little Tommy. I hope the whole family is reunited soon, as I think it’s really far-fetched.” …comments reader Paul from London “It turns out that Marnie and Mercedes make an absolutely brilliant…

FAIR CITY Melanie moves into a flat this week, but has the bank refused her a loan? Meanwhile, Will wakes up and Mairead finds out about Will’s affair with Cristiano. Also, Robbie and Carol continue to clash, costing the Station money. Can they work together for the sake of business? RIVER CITY Caitlin tries to prove Danny’s innocence this week, but her attempts fall flat when his secret past is revealed. Elsewhere, Amber is keen to make things perfect as Charlotte arrives home from hospital. Also, Dougie’s daughter Poppy also arrives – can she clear her father’s name?

BAD DAD Wicked stepdad Richard Hillman ended his killing spree by trying to off the entire Platt family. David, Sarah and mum Gail almost drowned but escaped – while Richard met a watery end… DROWNED BY A RAT David discovered Charlie Stubbs was having an affair with Maria, so tried to blackmail him. Charlie then attempted to drown David in Maria’s bath, but she returned to save him. PUSHED TO THE LIMIT David found out partner Tina had an abortion, paid for by his mum. In his fury, he threw Gail down the stairs and ended up in a young offenders’ institution. BROTHER BOTHER After finding out brother Nick had bedded his wife Kylie, David launched a campaign of terror against his sibling – ending in a horror crash that…

1 “It might be because we spend so much time together, but Jacob Roberts, who plays Damon, really makes me laugh. We have a great relationship off screen, too.” 2 “I’d love to film some scenes with Gregory Finnegan [aka James]. He’s a fantastic actor, and although we’ve crossed over, we haven’t had any dialogue together yet.” 3 “Me and Anna Passey [Sienna] are doing some great stuff at the moment –she’s a real joy to work with! She’s a fantastic actress, so it’s been really nice to bounce off her.” 4 “We’ll often organise a lads’ night out if we’re not too busy. I tend to hang out with Jacob, Rishi Nair [who plays Sami] and Rory Douglas-Speed [aka Joel] the most.” 5 “ Jamie Lomas [who played Warren…

He was last seen in a state of distress, fleeing the Dales as fugitive Andy Sugden – but actor Kelvin Fletcher looks a world away from those unflattering farm overalls now. Snapped on the sunny shores of Santorini recently as he holidayed with pregnant wife Eliza Marsland, and their two-year-old daughter Marnie, Kelvin was only too happy to showcase his rippling six pack and bulging biceps. And long gone are the baby-faced days for the former Dales actor, who’s now sporting a bushy beard that Zak Dingle would be proud of. It seems Kelvin is well and truly embracing fatherhood, having recently revealed that he and Eliza are expecting baby number two later this year. Life’s definitely less stressful away from the Dales!…

I’ve just finished watching Jessica Jones . It’s so intense – don’t watch it alone! I watch most of it from the doorway going to my boyfriend, “Can I look now?” The psychology between the bad guy, played by David Tennant, and Jessica is brilliant. I don’t think I’ll be able to look at him in the same way again! I love First Dates and Gogglebox with all my heart. I think they’re the most brilliant pieces of human observation. It’s not patronising, it’s such an affectionate look at people’s idiosyncratic reactions to things. It’s a snapshot of us as human beings, but in an incredibly funny way. Growing up, I used to love a show called…

As Graham, he’s famous for his sharp suits and immaculate grooming, but actor Andrew reckons that he’s the complete opposite in real life. “I look like a shaggy sheepdog!” he laughs. “It’s literally like I’m Mr Benn when I get to work. I walk into a wardrobe and come out a different person. It’s brilliant!” As well as looking the business, Andrew also gets to play a stone-cold badass thanks to Graham’s past as a secret-service operative. So, doing dramatic fight scenes and hostage scenarios are another bonus. “It’s great fun,” he grins. “I go to work licking my lips! It’s all a bit of a fantasy.”…

“Who shot you, Stuart?” “What?” “Me –” “Me oldest mate: Mick Carter.” Sorry, Stuart. We have to accept your first answer. “I don’t want to go to prison! Please don’t send me to prison! I’m sorry! I’m sorry I messed up! I didn’t want to hurt anybody! I just want to go home! Please let me go home! Nooooo!” Poor Sally – she’s her own worst enemy, yet we can’t help but feel sorry for her. “I had an abusive ex too, you know. So I understand why you changed your name.” “I’m sorry to hear that. How did you disentangle yourself ?” “How are we going to tell Seb that his mum, his aunt and his grandad were all murdered by someone who used to babysit him? His cousin!”…

It’s crunch time for Bernice and Daz’s doomed relationship this week, as she and Dr Cavanagh finally lock lips. The pair have been flirting with one another for weeks, but Bernice’s flailing romance with hapless boyfriend Daz has so far kept her from going for it with the handsome medic. It turns out that Bernice and Dr Cavanagh just can’t keep their feelings under wraps, however – and are helpless to resist the growing attraction between them as they share a steamy moment in the salon. But when troubled Bernice reluctantly pulls away from their secret kiss, insisting that they simply can’t go any further until she’s officially ended things with Daz, will Dr Cavanagh be prepared to wait for her? On top of all that, how will spurned Daz…

Romeo is stunned to come face to face with his dad James this week – but not under the circumstances that he would have liked… As Romeo makes a return to the village, he wastes no time in setting up a new moneymaking scheme with Prince. They decide to rip off Ste’s catering business – and when Ste finds out what the teens are up to, he’s furious! After Ste ropes in James to help put a stop to things, however, will Romeo finally come clean and tell the lawyer who he really is?…

REBECCA RETURNS! Just when Rebecca’s loved ones had given up all hope and accepted she was dead, she appeared from nowhere in the middle of the graveyard! And boy were we all glad to see her alive… Rebecca is alive! Her reunion with Robert and Seb was haunting – was it just me, or did she look like a ghost? This story did drag on, especially when it was uncertain if she was alive. Robert was the main focus for me. It shows what a great father he is and how much he has changed. Zoe I know it wasn’t meant to be funny, but I did laugh out loud when Rebecca suddenly appeared in that graveyard. I’m glad Lachlan didn’t kill her, as it shows he still has a…

THEIR MARRIED NAME Will it be Dingle-Sugden? Sugden-Dingle? Or will it be ‘Single’ or ‘Dugden’? Well, according to Danny, it won’t be any of the above… “The writers were very keen for them to keep their own identities,” he reveals. “So it will just be Aaron Dingle and Robert Sugden as they’ve always been.” ROBERT BEING AN OFFICIAL PART OF THE DINGLE FAMILY “I feel like he was already welcomed into the family when they got married the first time,” admits Ryan. “He drank from the welly and he was involved with the family quite a lot. It’s nice to get to work with all the Dingles. We’re currently filming something – which I’m probably not at liberty to say too much about – which involves all of the Dingle…

They’ve long been one of the most glamorous couples in showbiz – but Corrie star Faye Brookes (Kate) and her singer boyfriend Gareth Gates have shocked fans by announcing they are splitting. In a joint message on social media, the pair revealed they are “choosing to take some time apart”, and added: “We remain the very best of friends. We’d like to thank you for all your support over the years x.” Faye and Gareth met in 2012, when they were cast together in stage musical Legally Blonde. They’ve been inseparable ever since, even opening their own performing arts school for kids – named Fates Academy – so their announcement came as a big surprise to many. Faye’s co-stars – including Victoria Ekanoye (Angie) and her on-screen lover Bhavna Limbachia…

You’re not a proper EastEnder until you’ve tried some pie’n’mash with liquor – and Lorraine Stanley (Walford’s Karen) has finally gone and done it. Cementing her place as a proper East End gal, the starlet was pictured tucking into her tasty meal at a Peckham restaurant, where she couldn’t hide that hearty trademark smile of hers! Let’s hope the Taylor kids don’t get wind of the fact that their mum has been dining out without them, or there’ll be hell to pay when she gets back to Albert Square!…

IT’S A GOOD JOB THAT WE’VE cancelled all of our Saturday evening plans for the foreseeable future because of Strictly, as otherwise we’d only then be cancelling them all over again to stay in and watch Killing Eve.

The whole thing’s up on iPlayer now for those of you who prefer to binge-watch, but we like to take the episodes one week at a time and really savour the chase……

THOMAS ATKINSON (Lachlan White, Emmerdale ) OUT Time has finally caught up with killer Lachlan, and actor Thomas Atkinson has recorded a special message for Emmerdale’s Facebook page. “For the last four-and-a-half years, I’ve grown up here,” he says. “I’ve figured it out, I’ve spent a quarter of my life here, which is a long time!” Surely there’s always the possibility of a return one day? “I don’t know,” he admits. “You’ll have to ask the soap gods about that! I mean, he’s not dying. He’s going to prison. There could be a trial – we’ll have to see…” Now RAY MEAGHER (Alf Stewart, Home and Away ) OUT Summer Bay’s longest-serving resident is taking a short break while actor Ray Meagher performs in…
