Over the years in soap there have been many plots that have been left feeling slightly unfinished, or with loose ends not quite tied up. But none have intrigued and frustrated fans in equal measure more than Mark Fowler Jnr – the son of Square original Michelle Fowler and one of Walford’s most popular characters ever, Grant Mitchell. With Michelle long gone, and Grant not looking like he’d be heading back anytime soon, we thought this story opportunity was dead and buried… then things started to happen. Michelle writing that letter to Peggy? Intriguing. Sharon’s shock when she found the note? Interesting. The fact that Grant was heading back for another visit to the Square. Now we’re excited! And we were right. It’s been great to meet Mark Fowler Jnr,…

Chrissie may regret messing with Rakesh, as it means dealing with feisty Priya too! And Fiona Wade, who plays the wronged wife, is in no doubt over who would win the battle if the chips were down. “I’d say Priya – she doesn’t let anyone walk all over her,” warns the star. “She’s strong, and she’ll fight her corner. Priya has a lot going for her at the moment. She’s running the factory after having to fight to be taken seriously by her dad and her brothers. So I think she’d win a battle with Chrissie. “Whatever happens, there needs to be a big showdown,” adds Fiona. “People can get over a lot of things, but it will be horrendous for her when she learns the truth about Rakesh...”…

“MARK HAS HAD AN INTERESTING CALL FROM PHIL - HE’S TRYING TO WORK THINGS OUT…” It’s been a ticking time bomb buried in EastEnders history for 20 years, and now Albert Square’s longest and best-kept secret is finally set to explode!

However, oblivious Grant is still in the dark about the child he never knew existed… “Mark’s received a very interesting phone call from Phil, and is now at a strange period in his life where he is trying to piece things together,” says Albert Square newcomer, Ned Porteous, who has been cast…

Bethany is in a heartbreaking situation, and one that’s all too familiar for girls of Bethany’s age. That’s why Lucy hopes seeing this kind of bullying played out on screen will help real-life victims get support… “I hope girls watching this realise that just because someone bullies you about something, it doesn’t make it true,” she says. “I know I’m not overweight, so I hope they can see that bullies just say cruel things to be nasty. Viewers will also realise what Bethany is doing is stupid, and it will show how serious not eating and taking diet pills can be. “I’ve had a lot of tweets about the storyline – people telling me they’ve been in similar situations, and that this has helped them, so that’s really nice to…

Nico’s obsession with best friend Peri reaches terrifying levels this week, as she schemes to get rid of Peri’s ex-boyfriend, Tom!

EMMERDALE DAVE GLOVER AUG 1994 - JAN 1997 “Emmerdale was the first big television job that I did. We used to film in a little cotton mill, and there was a pub opposite the studio which would bring everyone together after filming. It was such a fantastic time.” CASUALTY DR PATRICK SPILLER DEC 1999 - MAR 2002 “I was so useless at pronouncing the medical terminology that they used to call me Elvis, because I mumbled it all. Whenever I finished a scene, everyone would shout out, ‘Elvis has left the building!’. I had such a laugh there, I really did.” BLUE MURDER DI RICHARD MAYNE MAY 2003 - OCT 2009 “I learned so much from Caroline Quentin [Mayne’s boss DCI Janine Lewis], because she’s ace. I’d love to do…

“VALERIE LOOKS VULNERABLE – BUT IN FACT, SHE’S HORRIBLE!” Guy Self is by far one of the most driven doctors to ever scrub in at Holby City. He’ll stop at nothing to achieve greatness – even taking on the hospital’s super-bitch, Jac Naylor! However, we learn this week that even someone as powerful and as ruthless as Guy can be sensitive. In his case, it’s the arrival of his mother that proves to be the chink in his armour – but why is Guy so bitter and resentful towards her?

Plus, Simon got a new granny after Leanne discovered Stella Price was her biological mum. Thankfully, Simon hasn’t had the pleasure of meeting his grandad Les Battersby – the boy is messed up already without having to deal with that!…

Ellie is a beautician, but what’s your best beauty tip? …asks Jenny, via email I’m a big fan of keeping it as natural as possible.

It’s taken years of practice, but I’ve got a steady hand now – I can even do it on a moving train! Do you think that Freddie is the right person for Ellie? …asks Louise from Buxton Me and Charlie [Clapham, who plays Freddie] disagree about this all the time, because obviously I’m ‘Team Ellie’ and he’s ‘Team Freddie’!

Once they realise who he is, what do they decide to do with him? Should they call the police, or take matters into their own hands? “Hopefully this is the type of show that people talk about in the pub,” shares Joanna Vanderham, who plays Adam’s sister Claire. “It’s that sort of story, everyone’s going to be putting themselves in the…

HONEY AND BILLY ARE CURSED BY JAY AND HIS CLAN… If Honey learns Billy has been keeping secrets, there’ll be a horrible sense of déjà vu for the poor woman. In 2008, Billy agreed to be a getaway driver for Jay’s criminal dad, Jase. The dodgy deal led to Jase’s brutal murder at the hands of gangster nemesis Terry – who stabbed Jase to death while Billy cowered nearby.

Tensions have really been simmering between the women ever since Grace found out that Sienna had been sleeping with her late husband, Trevor Royle. But surprisingly, it’s another betrayal that leaves Grace baying for Sienna’s blood… “Grace realises that Sienna is the only other person who knows how she’s feeling after losing Trevor,” explains Tamara Wall, who plays the club boss. “She storms round to Sienna’s and asks her to tell her about the Trevor she knew – it’s a real heart-warming moment, and you think the two of them are finally going to become friends. “Then Grace goes back later to do…

He even looks a little bit like Todd Carty, who became a household name when he took over the role from David. Genius casting, we think!…

Vanessa and Tracy now have more family than they bargained for – and while neither of them are particularly happy about it, stars Michelle and Amy are thrilled to be screen siblings… “It was our idea because I was talking about Vanessa’s dad being in prison, and Amy mentioned that Tracy’s dad was too,” says Michelle. “Then the make-up girl said, ‘Imagine you were half-sisters with the same dad’, so we pitched it.” “People have told us that we look like sisters,” adds Amy. “There was a picture of me in the press, and the journalist had written, ‘40-year-old Michelle Hardwick’ on the caption. And it was me!”…

“CHARITY CAN ALWAYS HOOK CAIN BACK IN…”JEFF For a decade and a half, Emmerdale’s Charity and Cain have proved that Emily Brontë isn’t the only person capable of delivering tales of obsessive, destructive love set against the backdrop of the Yorkshire Dales. Cain is every inch the smouldering Heathcliff: damaged, cruel, but hypnotic. Charity, meanwhile, is as manipulative and wicked as Brontë’s Wuthering Heights heroine Cathy. Together, it’s an irresistible combination – although it’s been a while since their passion ignited, thanks to Cain’s marriage to Moira. But now Moira’s asked for a divorce, Cain is back in the twisted, dark world she’d briefly saved him from. And waiting for him is Charity, who isn’t going to miss the chance to pull Cain back into her orbit, and into her…

“Honey’s king would be Billy – I have to say that, otherwise I’d never hear the end of it! Perry would be furious with me if I didn’t. Honey would still be in charge, though.

Denise is very wise – and Honey could trust her to be her right-hand woman, definitely.” “Phil Mitchell should be sent to the stocks! As far as Honey’s concerned, it’s always a drama with Phil – she thinks he’s a bit of a selfish sort of person, and that’s not Honey at all.” “The first law Honey would pass would be that everyone in Walford has to skip and sing. And they’d have to…

“NED AND ELLY ARE PASSIONATE PEOPLE – SO THEY ARGUE A LOT!” There are certainly a lot of attractive men on Ramsay Street right now, but none of them have caught our attention in quite the same way as man of mystery Ned. While the Brennan brothers have their obvious charms, what you see is what you get with them – whereas with Ned, we’re not quite sure what’s lurking beneath the surface. Now that he’s back in Erinsborough for good, we thought it was time to catch up with actor Ben Hall – who plays Brad’s son – to learn more about his secretive alter ego. And he tells us that he loves Ned’s naughty streak just as much as we do… “He definitely has the potential to be…

I highly recommend it to anyone. “I’ve also been going to the gym more and doing a bit of boxing,” adds John. “That’s quite different from yoga, but it’s a good ying to the yang!”…
