“This week, it’s time to celebrate Neighbours!” As I may have mentioned before (and will mention again more than once over the coming year), 2020 is positively sparkling with big soap birthdays. This week, it’s time to celebrate Neighbours, as it hits 35 years of drama with an unconventional wheeze – the Lassiters’ wedding fair, which is a great excuse for couples old and new to rock up to tie the knot. Not only does this give us a big dose of nostalgia with some much-loved faces, but it also pays tribute to what must be Neighbours’ defining moment – Scott and Charlene’s wedding. Before you go thinking that they’ve decided against the deadly dramas soaps tend to pull out on these occasions, turn to p16 to see what’s lined up…

After speaking to families affected by coercive control, Sair was staggered by how tricky it is for someone in Alya’s position to intervene… “I have felt a sense of hopelessness about how much Alya can do,” shares the star. “You’d think that she would be able to reason with Yasmeen, but families in these situations are constantly met with rebuttals and denials, and it makes you appreciate how sensitive an issue it is. People don’t even realise it is happening to them.”…

Claudia appoints herself chief of Evelyn’s ‘glam squad’, and gives her a makeover this week – after Tyrone’s mardy grandmother bags herself a date with a former boyfriend! Evelyn is at the vets’ with her pet pooch Cerberus when she runs into old flame Arthur and his cockapoo, Kendal – and Tyrone quickly senses Evelyn still has the hots for him… “In true Evelyn-style, she is quick to shut down Tyrone’s suggestion – but can’t help loitering in Victoria Garden with the hope of running into Arthur again,” grins our Coronation Street insider. “Sure enough, the pair cross paths with their doggies, and after reminiscing about old times, both agree they’d probably be married if circumstances were different!” After Arthur invites Evelyn to join him in the Rovers the next…

“Do you know, it can be really exhausting being a matriarch these days. I’m too old and too tired for all this nonsense.” Sometimes we suspect that Audrey actually knows she’s in a soap. “You are the same disgusting sack of selfishness you’ve always been. You add nothing. You give nothing.” The irony of this statement is that Charity adds and gives EVERYTHING to Emmerdale. “They are going to say that I killed Leo, and that I should be kept in here.” “People understand abuse. These things aren’t black and white any more.” It’s the Gray areas that are the problem where poor Chantelle is concerned. “You’re going to live in Daniel’s friend’s bed-sit? You, him and a baby? Have you lost your tiny mind?” “Look, people start off in…

Nikau grows suspicious of Jade’s behaviour this week – as it becomes clear that she framed Ryder for leaking the sex tape! Having realised that Jade thrives on causing trouble, Nikau is already on high alert. So when Jade pulls him into the Salt store cupboard for some saucy fun, he plays along – before spotting that she’s recording their liaison! But as Nik secretly pockets Jade’s phone, does he have enough evidence to prove Ryder’s innocence?…

Seb is forced to choose between two lovers this week, after his girlfriend Emma invites him on a trip to Australia. Emma is thrilled when her mum offers to pay for flights for the pair so they can visit, but is disappointed after Seb seems far from enthused. Later, Emma admits to her pal Maria that she reckons she’s keener on Seb than he is on her – so Maria advises her to play it cool and give him some space. But while Emma takes Maria’s suggestion by throwing a girls’ night at her flat, Seb bumps into his ex, Alina, in the pub. As the former couple enjoy a drink, is Seb about to realise that he still has feelings for her?…

Al’s ongoing efforts to clear Jimmi’s name prove painful this week, when he confronts seedy club owner Harvey. After securing entry into the Burlow bar by trailing a dodgy punter, Al’s bid to track down Harvey alerts suspicion. Harvey eventually calls Al to his office, but having plied him with booze, Harvey turfs Al out, where heavies are waiting to do him some serious damage! Will his cuts and bruises prompt Al to cut short his dangerous investigation?…

CV CHECK… I love the hummingbird pictures that the Baileys have in their living room in Corrie – do you know where I can get them? Gemma, Hornsea They’re by artist Anna Jacobs (www.annajacobs art.com) and are priced from £35. The room’s yellow lampshade is also Anna’s design. The artist says seeing her work on screen is “super exciting!” DEJA VU? I caught up with the new series of McDonald & Dodds the other day, and the actress who played Kasha Perry was really familiar. Did she have a soap role before? Christine, Leeds Good spot, Christine! Cassie Bradley’s part in McDonald & Dodds was her first since leaving her role as Corrie’s Natalie Watkins last year. While on the cobbles, Natalie helped Nick in his wicked scheme to rob…

Martin returned to the Square to support Sonia on…

“This is what Hollyoaks does best, getting a message out there to the public and encouraging people to open up,” explains actor Ashley Taylor Dawson, as he joins us to talk about his character Darren’s battle with depression. “Sadly, depression is so common these days, and it’s something that everyone can relate to.” It’s been clear to viewers for quite some time that all is not right with Darren, as he struggles to carry out even the simplest of tasks, and often breaks down in tears when nobody else is around. A conversation with his old love rival Kyle leads Darren to finally figure out what’s going on this week – but as Ashley tells us, this is just the start of Darren’s journey… Hi Ashley. how do you feel…

PRETTY IN PINK! Ex-Corrie star Kym Marsh (Michelle Connor) was among the guests on the red carpet at the opening of Pretty Woman The Musical in London’s West End. Kim dressed suitably for the stage version of the 90s film, rocking a pink power suit, which wouldn’t look out of place when shopping in Beverly Hills. The musical stars ex-soapies Danny Mac (Hollyoaks’ Dodger Savage) and Neil McDermott (EastEnders’ Ryan Malloy). TWINKLE TOES Meanwhile, fellow Ramsay Streeter Benny Turland (Hendrix) donned a tutu for the premiere of Billy Elliot!

Rosalie Douglas’ plans for a happy family Christmas are dealt a devastating blow at the start of this new three-part miniseries, when she learns that her son Rob has been found dead while away travelling with friends. The weight of grief becomes unbearable for Rosalie, her estranged husband Luke, and their daughter Maddie – but some light comes back into their lives when Rosalie and Maddie meet charismatic stranger Jed at bereavement counselling. Maddie quickly falls for Jed, and Rosalie has an outlet for the maternal instincts that she’s been bottling up. But as Rosalie and Jed’s relationship becomes increasingly intense, could this young man be more than he seems? We caught up with Julie Graham, who plays Rosalie, and Nico Mirallegro, who plays Jed, to find out more about…

Things could be better for stand-up comedian Mae: she’s gigging to indifferent crowds, sleeping on her friend’s sofa, and her love life is flatlining. Then she meets George, who’s enraptured by her. Now all Mae needs to do is break the news that she’s a recovering addict… “Even by the end of the series, you can’t really tell if they should be together,” admits Mae Martin, who plays Mae and co-wrote the semi-autobiographical series. “They don’t bring out the best in each other, but they’re so in love. I think a lot of people have had relationships like that, where you’re consumed by it and it makes you anxious.” “As a viewer, you’re attracted to the ups and downs of it – but to experience it is quite stressful,” adds…

LOTTIE HENSHALL (Jade Rowan, Corrie ) OUT It has been confirmed that we’ve seen the last of manipulative Jade, who left the cobbles after little sister Hope told her she didn’t want to see her any more. “I can’t thank you all enough for the support you have shown me over the last few months,” tweeted actress Lottie after her final scenes aired. “The respone to Jade has been incredible. You guys are awesome.” Gone! ROBERTA KERR (Joan, Doctors ) IN  We all remember Roberta from her stint on the cobbles as Wendy Crozier back in 1989, when her affair with Ken led to his divorce from third wife Deirdre. Now, Roberta is the latest former soap star to take a guest turn in…

Coronation Street star Julia Goulding (aka Shona) has already mastered the art of being a working mum – judging by our snaps of the actress swaddling her newborn baby Franklin on her return to filming, as Shona is reunited with son Clayton! It’s the first time that Julia has been spotted back at work since giving birth three months ago. Meanwhile, Shona’s husband David will wind up in yet another perilous situation, as the pair grow further apart in the wake of her memory loss… “David is forced to run for his life again after upsetting a group of men from a nearby estate,” explains our Weatherfield source. “He’ll be seen fleeing the area after the gang catches him deliberately jumping up and down on top of their car.” We…

Tall order! Walford newcomer Dayle Hudson has revealed how tall he is, after viewers took to social media to discuss Peter Beale’s dramatic change in height. “I’m 6’3!” he shared. Tina axed! The Street’s Jack P Shepherd (aka David) has joked that he has “binned” co-star Tina O’Brien (Sarah) from the Platt family WhatsApp group, now that her name has changed to Barlow on screen. Ha ha! Ruffled feathers Broadcasting regulator Ofcom is assessing around 350 complaints with regards to Corrie’s coercive control plot.

Diane’s secret is out this week – when Tony learns that she had an affair with his father, Edward! The drama kicks off after Edward, jealous of Tony’s reconciliation with his former lover, tells Diane that he’s going to expose the truth in the most public manner… “It’s all done in typical soapie fashion!” laughs Alex Fletcher, who plays Diane. “Edward tells Diane that he’s going to make this huge announcement at a presentation he’s giving in the café, and says he’s going to tell everyone what they did. He’s showing his true colours now…” Of course, the revelation will floor Tony, who thought Diane had been seeing someone from an online dating site. “Diane’s not coping with the lies,” says Alex. “The pressure had eased a bit, because she…

Poor Keegan’s frustrations threaten to overwhelm him this week, after he faces a setback in his application for a loan. The young entrepreneur and Iqra have been making grand plans for their food business, converting Masood’s old van. But they need a loan from the bank to get their venture off to a flying start – and it seems it won’t be as straightforward as Keegan had hoped… “Keegan’s not normally one to let a bump in the road get him down,” says our Square snitch. “However, this latest frustration comes after he’s repeatedly been stopped by the police when he’s done nothing wrong. He’s starting to feel that his skin colour is always going to put him at a disadvantage. And after a chat with Denise, he feels even…

There’s a big milestone coming up in Emmerdale this month, as actor Jeff Hordley celebrates 20 years on our screens as Cain Dingle! The past two decades have been full of drama for the village’s undisputed biggest bad boy – so it’s only fitting that, on the eve of this impressive anniversary, Cain is finally back to his bad best as he takes on corrupt cop DI Malone… “It’s good to see Cain get his old DNA back,” grins Jeff, who made his first appearance in Emmerdale on 30 March 2000. “He’s finally met his match! It’s great to have somebody to bounce off, because Cain has not been in situations like this for a while. We’ve been filming in some great locations, and there’s been a lot of Mexican…

BULLSEYE! We gather in the centre of this page to mourn the loss of Adam Barlow – Soap’s Most Eligible Bachelor – who is officially off the market after marrying Sarah. We, as a nation, must come together in our shared grief – but frankly, Inside Soap is still at the ‘scoffing ice cream on the sofa watching The Notebook in our pants’ stage of the breakup process. Please respect our privacy during this difficult time. It was very good of Bex’s Auntie Michelle to pay for her niece to go travelling. That’s Chelle for you, always thinking about teenagers and their needs. Charity even makes rubber gloves look stylish. She’s a role model for domestic goddesses everywhere. Nate was obsessed with Spider-Man for the first five years of his…

With the desperate search for Eve under way, finding her as soon as is physically possible will be Paddy’s prime concern – and of course, getting his daughter home safely is all he can think about. However, while he’s hoping against hope to have Eve back in his arms before the day is out, this nightmare situation is bound to have dire consequences for his family – and his relationship with Chas – regardless of what happens next… “There’s a chance that social services are going to have to get involved,” admits Dominic. “There’s also the huge issue of what Chas is going to think of Paddy after everything that’s happened – and obviously he’s going to be pretty heavy on himself, too. That’s going to lead into how Paddy…

Alya is determined to free Yasmeen from Geoff’s evil grasp this week – and after piecing together his awful abuse, she goes to the police! Having learned that Geoff is planning to sell his and Yasmeen’s share of Speed Daal – while trying to force his wife into beginning a new life abroad – Alya demands that her grandmother packs a bag and leaves her controlling husband immediately. However, when fragile Yasmeen refuses to listen, Alya concludes that Geoff must be stopped – and decides to report him to the police… “Alya realises Yasmeen has lost control of her own life!” “Alya’s feelings towards Geoff go from her disliking her gran’s annoying partner, to realising that Yasmeen has lost control of her own life,” explains actress Sair Khan, who plays…

Top-secret future Corrie storylines run the risk of being exposed after actress Maureen Lipman – who plays Evelyn – left her scripts in a taxi during a trip to the supermarket with cast mate Rula Lenska (Claudia). The pair were making their way to the soap’s studios when Maureen misplaced her backpack containing the classified cobbles documents. “I began to think laterally,” explains the 73-year-old star, on retracing her steps. “We paid for smoked-haddock fishcakes and a large bottle of vodka at the baffling Sainsbury’s self-service till. Maybe I removed the pack from my bag to help me relax while addressing a speaking barcode.” Maureen later received a phone call from a lady in Stockport called Karen, who found the actress’ contact details due to a packet of prescription pills…

“I know it’ll take a while for Moira and Cain to reunite in the Dales (much as I want them to!), so maybe Moira falling for Cain’s new nemesis DI Malone would spice things up and show Cain just what he’s missing!” …dreams reader Helen from Dorset “I think there’s so much more fun to be had with Jenny’s B&B at the Rovers than we are getting. She’s such a nosy parker that she should be busy trying to get the dirt on her guests, and sometimes regretting what she uncovers about them!” …suggests reader Fatima from Nuneaton “EastEnders should do the plot that Neighbours had for Paul Robinson with Max Branning – I’d love to see his exes Kirsty, Tanya and Vanessa all rock up. Just imagine!” …chuckles reader…

DANIEL’S SECOND PROPOSAL! We do feel awful for poor Daniel in Corrie, but proposing to Bethany with Sinead’s ring is a new low – and it resulted in her leaving the Street! This is what you thought about Bethany’s exit… How utterly heartbreaking for poor Daniel! First he loses his beloved wife, and now Bethany’s gone off to London. I really hope she returns in the future – I think the two of them would make a good couple, once he’s moved on from Sinead, of course. Marjorie, Downpatrick I really felt for Bethany when everyone kept laying into her at Sarah’s wedding. I know Beth is grieving for Sinead, but blimey she can be really cruel when she wants to be. It wouldn’t surprise me if Bethany never returned…

“ My favourite place to film is the exterior village, which is the jewel in the crown for this show. The village is the best character in Emmerdale, and I love working on Main Street and at the garage.” “ Charity is my favourite character of all time, just because I think Emma [Atkins, who plays her] is fantastic, and has an incredible range as an actress. She’s really fun to work with, and a good friend.” “ My favourite-ever storyline was the one with Cain and Angie Reynolds, when they joined the show years ago, with the copper and the villain. I also loved the ‘who bludgeoned Cain?’ plot, and the two-hander afterwards between me and Steve Halliwell [aka Zak].” “ My favourite place to live in Emmerdale has…

Paige Smith & Mark Brennan “Paige and Mark are definitely meant to be!” We’re used to soaps celebrating their big milestones with death and destruction – and there will certainly be plenty of that as Neighbours turns 35 this week (see p16)! But along with all the drama, there are also plenty of joyful moments, as five weddings are set to take place over the course of this week’s special episodes. The happy couples are tying the knot as part of the Lassiters wedding expo, which brings together favourites from different eras of the show who didn’t manage to make it down the aisle the first time around. We grabbed five blushing brides to get the lowdown on their big days – starting with Olympia Valance, who plays Paige Smith……

Kate is a plain-speaking woman who runs a no-frills cafe – if you want froth in your coffee, you’d best go elsewhere! So when she finds asylum seeker Koji making one cup of tea last the whole day, the two are soon at loggerheads. Fortunately, when Inside TV joined stars Brenda Blethyn and Jimmy Akingbola during a break in rehearsals, things were more friendly… Describe your characters to us… Jimmy We’re like a lovely odd couple. I feel in some ways they’re quite similar, even though they’re from different places. Brenda They’ve both been disappointed in life and are trying to stay afloat, so they have that similarity. Jimmy I like how proud they are – they never back down. There’s an argument at the end of episode one that…

The Good Karma Hospital opens up its doors for a third series this weekend! It’s a tough time for the doctors and nurses who have been understaffed while Dr Ruby Walker is away running a  clinic on her family’s estate. So when she pays a visit to the hospital with her pregnant sister, Dr Lydia Fonseca is delighted to see her back – until Ruby announces that she has no immediate plans to return to work. Amanda Redman (Lydia) and Amrita Acharia (Ruby) tell us more… Ruby is used to being in the hospital – was it weird to play scenes where she’s there as a visitor? Amrita Yeah, it was interesting. It’s something I can relate to quite a bit – if you’ve moved around then you go back…

EXTERMINATE!

CHOKED ON SALMON! Lorraine Chase, who played Steph Stokes in Emmerdale, says she’s “lucky to be alive” after choking on some salmon on a rye snack! “It just went down the wrong way and became stuck in my windpipe,” reveals the star. “I was coughing and choking – I couldn’t breathe!” Fortunately, a barmaid soon came to her rescue. Phew! LUCY: ON THE STREET AND NARROW! Now she’s left Corrie, star Lucy Fallon (Bethany) has revealed that winning a role on the soap helped her to sort her life out, after a period of teenage rebellion. “I went through a stage at sixth form where I had a bit of a bad boyfriend and just didn’t turn up to class,” she admits. “Corrie straightened me out.
