As events came to a head, Lisa lost her rag and threw wine all over Mel, who ended up back at Phil and Lisa’s home to change her clothes.

EastEnders has a fine reputation for nurturing new talent – particularly the likes of Charlie, who hasn’t been on screen before. So who better to show him the ropes than a former film star turned landlord of the Queen Vic? “Danny Dyer [Mick] is my mentor, and he’s really cool,” grins Charlie. “On my first day he said to me very simply, ‘Keep your head down, learn your lines, show up prepared and do your thing’.

If you’ve got an emotional scene, it really does make a difference when you see it on telly. He looks after me on screen and off, like a real-life big brother. “I…

Although Davina McCall’s latest series This Time Next Year – in which members of the public vow to transform an aspect of their lives – was a hit with viewers when it launched in 2016, there was one drawback to the format. Given that the contributors have a year to make their pledge happen, and it takes time to find all of these people and to get the show set up, we’ve been waiting a while for series two to hit our screens. Luckily, ITV has been planning ahead to ensure we won’t have to wait that long again… “There’s been such a long time between last time and this time because it takes a year to make!” Davina tells Inside TV. “And they didn’t decide…

“Woody didn’t have the guts to tell Whitney he was off”’ Whitney is horrified to come face to face with her former fiancé Woody this week, five months after he fled to Spain with barely a word of explanation. He claims vehemently to still be in love with Whit – but can Woody’s weasel words manage to heal her heart? “Five months have passed since Woody did a bunk,” our Walford snitch reminds us. “And if you remember, he didn’t even have the guts to tell Whitney to her face that he was leaving. Instead he scrawled a childish note on an envelope: ‘Whit! You’ll be better off HERE! Sorry, Woody’ – and not so much as a kiss at the end of it! While Whitney would admit that her…

We do hope the Kings manage to get their mojo back – as over the years, Emmerdale viewers have been party to their raunchy and ridiculous role play!

Personally, I don’t go in for that kind of thing. If my real-life husband dressed up, I’d be fuming – but I’m all right with the caveman!”…

After more than a year of hearing tales about Mark and Aaron’s mysterious younger sister Chloe, we finally met her last month – and she’s certainly caused a stir since landing on Ramsay Street! “I hope Chloe is living up to people’s expectations, as I know she’s been teased for quite a long time!” chuckles Neighbours’ newcomer April Rose Pengilly, who plays the much-hyped Brennan sibling. “Chloe is a very well-meaning person, though she can sometimes put her foot in it – she often opens her mouth and says the wrong thing. She never has any intention to hurt anyone or to cause problems, but she’s like a puppy who just stumbles into trouble!” Chloe finds herself in hot water this week, thanks to her shenanigans with Brandon – and…

It pays to have a famous mother like Corrie’s Kym Marsh (Michelle) – but it also pays to have a daughter in the cosmetics trade!

The return of Will & Grace after 11 years away has definitely reminded us how much we missed Will, Grace, Jack and Karen. Inside TV was lucky enough to attend an audience with the cast during a recent promotional trip to the UK, where they admitted they had some concerns about whether they’d be welcomed back… “I was worried at first,” says Debra Messing, who plays Grace. “I guess I thought we needed a reason – why are we doing this?
