Life in soapland moves quickly, doesn’t it? I’ve only been off on my holibobs for a week, and I already feel as though I’ve missed so much in my fave shows. Just flicking through the pages of this issue I’ve learned so much juicy gossip… The Rovers up for sale in Corrie – and nightmare neighbour Mick is leaving Weatherfield already! Plus it’s finally time for tragic Martin to be laid to rest in EastEnders; I don’t think we’ve ever waited so long for a soap funeral to happen. Still, at least it gave star Lacey Turner a chance to catch her breath after giving birth before throwing herself straight back into filming the heartbreaking funeral scenes. But even being away in New York for a few days, I couldn’t…

THE BARN BLAZE Who needs the fire brigade when you have John? When Moira set the barn at Butler’s alight, it was John and Mack who braved the ferocious flames to rescue her and Ruby. The building exploded, but somehow everyone survived. ERIC’S EMERGENCY John was once again hailed a hero when he saved Eric Pollard. The village veteran was on the verge of a scary angina attack, but John recognised the signs and stepped in to prevent it. His quick-thinking earned him a job at the surgery. DISPOSING OF A DEAD BODY When Aaron feared he’d murdered Anthony, it was John who took control and insisted he get rid of the corpse. He meticulously cleaned up the crime scene, then buried Anthony’s body in the woods, keeping the location…

About a boy With Netflix drama Adolescence winning rave reviews, Corrie star Tina O’Brien has revealed that Owen Cooper, the 15-year-old lead in the hit show which also stars Stephen Graham, discovered his love of acting while attending the drama school she co-founded. Daddy Dyer! We recently saw Keith Allen as Phil’s fellow patient Gaz, but the star was almost in EastEnders once before as Mick Carter’s dad Buster Briggs. “I was getting calls from Danny saying, ‘Please come and be my dad,’” says Keith. Bargain hunt! Part of the EastEnders set – including walls from the Queen Vic and Reiss’ lock up – have appeared on Facebook Marketplace after the soap had a clear-out of old scenery. Shop till you drop!…

FAIR CITY James has a warning for Emma this week, after Tyler visits her to hold a business meeting. In McCoys, James tells his mum to steer clear of his rival. Will she listen to his warning? Elsewhere, Ruby informs Greg about her mission to win a job at Brewzers. RIVER CITY Gillian receives a surprise this week, when Emma arrives in Shieldinch. To begin with, Gillian is suspicious about the visit, but Douglas tries to ease the tension between the pair. How will Gillian feel when the truth behind her daughter’s trip comes to light? THE ARCHERS The Grundys make plans to visit George in prison as his birthday approaches, but a thorny issue threatens to scupper their plan. Meanwhile, Brian starts acting strangely and makes Miranda suspicious. At…

Is she misunderstood? Am I the only one who feels sorry for Ella in Emmerdale? Yes, she has a dark past but I believe her! She’s done everything to try to redeem herself and now even Manpreet has turned on her! I’ve read rumours that Paula Lane is leaving, but I really hope not! Sara, Ipswich A QUIET LIFE? It feels like it’s only been five minutes since Carla and Lisa got together, yet they’ve had the whole kitchen sink thrown at them! Kidney transplant, Rob’s prison escape and a hostage situation! I’m not saying we should see all their dates at Speed Daal, but surely now it’s time for the pair of them to have some downtime and sweet romance? Charlotte, Wrexham Swarla + Betsy just ordering pizza, watching…

The spark between dependable Harvey and his ever-youthful neighbour Kathy fast became a flame, which is now burning fiercer than the café gas rings during the lunchtime rush. Left out in the cold by the new romance, however, is Harvey’s oblivious girlfriend Jean, something which gave actor Ross Boatman a few sleepless nights… “I was actually quite afraid,” confesses the star, as he joins Inside Soap for an exclusive chat. “Because Jean is such an iconic character, and loved by so many viewers, I worried about what the reaction might be. But I think because the story has been so skilfully engineered in the scripts, there is a lot of sympathy for Harvey, and people are responding in a way that I didn’t necessarily imagine they would. It’s certainly easier…

Christina is on the prowl, and Amy reveals that her character has her sights set on two Coronation Street locals! “She takes a fancy to Steve McDonald,” shares the star. “She’s buying him drinks in the bar, calling for a pint for this ‘handsome chap!’” Next on Christina’s list is undertaker George Shuttleworth, played by Amy’s old acting buddy Tony Maudsley. “Christina quite likes the look of him,” she laughs. “She likes the cut of any fella’s jib, as long as he has a pulse!”…

As well as playing Corrie’s Jason Grimshaw, Ryan’s other big soap role was on Neighbours – where he played mysterious Rafael Humphreys in 2018 – and the star has paid tribute to the show following the news that it will end later this year. “They’re an institution, these soaps, and no one wants to see that sort of show disappear – they’re part of our lives,” laments Ryan. “When you’re in it as well, it’s even more beautiful. The people are amazing, the crews are amazing. It’s really sad. But I’ll always have fond memories. There will always be a place in my heart for Neighbours.”…

Alan Carr asks 10 more interior designers to show us what they’re made of as a sixth series of the creative contest begins. The new run will see them transform a diverse range of spaces, from youth hostels to shipping containers to Welsh holiday cottages. Michelle Ogundehin returns to judge the eight episodes alongside celebrity guests including Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, Sue Perkins, Mary Portas and Sophie Robinson. And as Alan tells Inside TV, this series truly tests the designers’ innovational skills… “I think what you’ll see with this series is that they’ve really pushed the boat out with the spaces they’ve had to do up,” he cheers. “The first one is in the gorgeous Lake District, doing up a youth hostel; we also do a dogs’ ‘transition room’ at Battersea Dogs…

Hi Sue. How did you feel when you found out about the storyline? The producer told me, and obviously you don’t survive dementia, so I knew my time on Corrie would eventually come to an end. I realised it was an important story to tell and a fantastic opportunity to act. Did you have any concerns? Some newspapers claimed I was furious about the story, which was completely untrue – the only concern was wanting to do it justice. Being given this storyline is an honour and a privilege. What did you make of the fans’ reaction to the news? They want to save Debbie! It’s brilliant that she is so loved, I didn’t realise what people thought of her. But Debbie’s not going anywhere yet, the whole story is…

Laura-Jayne snoops behind the soap headlines… Britain’s most legendary pub could have new owners this year, with the news that the Rovers Return is up for sale, after Carla Connor decides to sell up! This week, we’ll see Carla tell landlady Jenny she needs to sell the pub to help pay off the debt for her recent kidney transplant. And while Jenny begs Carla to give her first refusal, in scenes filming at Corrie’s Manchester studios, the pub has been spotted with a ‘for sale’ sign – meaning the boozer must be on the market! “Jenny is obviously desperate to keep her pub, but it seems any hope of doing a quiet deal with Carla to keep her name over the door doesn’t work out,” says our Corrie insider. “Of…

Get ready to head back in time this week – as we see Hollyoaks uncovering some shocking secrets from the past! In a special episode, we find out what happened in the missing year before the sensational time jump last September – featuring the return of bad boy Warren! “Hold onto your hats, we’re doing the time warp again!” begins our Hollyoaks insider. “When the show jumped forward by 12 months, it was clear that a lot had gone on for the locals. Some things have never been revealed – until now! It’s a thrilling way to fill in the gaps, and sets up some exciting new twists…” As viewers travel back to halfway through the lost year, concerned Mercedes has been having some health issues. Some unusual changes in…

When Sharon’s best pal Michelle fell pregnant at 16, Sharon was her biggest support. For three years, she thought she was just ‘Auntie Sharon’ – until Michelle revealed that Sharon’s dad Dirty Den was the father, so Vicki was really her half-sister… Though Sharon fell out with Michelle, she was eventually thrilled to have a new sister and spent years in the US with her. Later, when Vicki returned, it was Sharon who was her surrogate mum.…

Avani’s hellish ordeal! EastEnders gave us an unflinching and uncomfortable insight into Avani’s experience with the police, despite her innocence. And our readers were full of praise for this brave storyline... I actually felt sick watching poor Avani strip in that police cell under the watchful eye of that prejudiced police officer. The fact there was no cutting away to other characters made it extra hard to watch. Imagine being forced to do that at her tender age! Daisy, Malton Avani’s ordeal after her arrest gave us another chance to witness her more vulnerable side. Behind all the bravado and backchat, she’s a sensitive soul who has all the same insecurities as other girls her age. Aaliyah James always kills it with her performance too – she’s brilliant! Nadine, Worthing…

LIVING LEGENDS “I’ve been filming a big scene with Jean, Kat and Alfie recently, and even now I sometimes have to pinch myself. Even though I’ve been here for a while and been in the business a long time, I still can’t believe I’m working with these characters and these actors.” FAIR-WEATHER FILMING “The Square is my favourite and least favourite place to film, depending on the time of year. We had the first warm sunny day recently, and it was so lovely that I didn’t want the day to end. However, when it’s icy and cold, it can be quite tough!” LIFE JACKET “The thing that makes me feel most like Harvey is his suede bomber jacket. I have a brown one and a green one, and as soon…

From the moment we first set eyes on Kammy, it was clear that we had a charmer on our hands. Since then, the cheeky mechanic has wooed a Dingle, stolen a horse from Kim Tate and played Ross at his own game – and that was just for starters! This week, Kammy steals Cain’s car after luring Sarah to the wild side. But will the lovebirds get away with it – and what will her ex Jacob make of the romance? Over to Kammy’s real-life alter ego, Shebz Miah… Hi Shebz! How did it feel watching your first episode of Emmerdale? It was almost euphoric. Seeing myself on screen for the first time, alongside my family, was a massive moment. They were cheering me on when they saw me. It…

Hollyoaks recently teased a potential reunion for Joel and Cleo, but Cleo decided to pursue a new relationship with Sienna instead. “I think the door is well and truly closed on Joel and Cleo now,” admits Rory. “The show will always keep trying it though, as I think they like annoying the audience with it now.” The star spills that it can be tricky working with his real-life partner Nadine Mulkerrin, as they often get the giggles together! “I’m so bad at laughing,” he says. “She can see it in my eyes, so it sets her off too. It’s tough!”…

Edward ‘ Ned’ Porteous BORN 7 July 1994 IN High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire Early days Ned reckons that his love for acting started early. “From a young age I had always used performing as an outlet, whether to let off some steam or just for a bit of fun,” he recalls. After graduating from drama school, his first acting role was in Holby City in 2015 – where his character flirted with Doctor Morven before vomiting over the hospital floor! Taken for Grant–ed… In 2016 Ned was delighted to take on a role steeped in soap royalty – Mark Fowler Jnr, son of Albert Square original Michelle Fowler and Walford legend Grant Mitchell. “Ross Kemp [Grant] is the most interesting man I’ve ever met in my life,” he said at the…

Lara Peake, who plays Brennan’s estranged daughter Carly in the series, relished learning British Sign language (BSL) for her role… “I’ve always been quite fascinated by it as a language, but I didn’t know any of it,” she admits. “It’s been amazing to soak it all up. This is probably my favourite job yet because of the opportunity to learn BSL! “Our sign language consultant, Duffy, taught me pretty much every day during filming,” continues Lara, who also starred in Rivals on Disney+. “In social settings, I picked up so much more outside of the formal environment. And Duffy’s a complete prankster as well, which made the learning fun!”…

Legendary broadcaster Vanessa Feltz continues her daytime discussion series this week, taking her cues from viewers on the topics to cover, from relationships, parenting, gossip, fashion and much more – all in her trademark straight-talking style. And as she tells Inside TV, sincerity is key… “It’s guests being honest, and viewers calling in and contributing,” she explains. “I suppose it’s all about what can we do for each other. We can all admit that things are not perfect, and what helped us over the difficult parts. It’s about sharing experiences.” And Vanessa’s guests are made all the more at ease to share their personal stories thanks to a welcoming set… “It is pretty, isn’t it?” she cheers. “Some critics have said it’s too pink! How can you be too pink?…

While Walford bids a sad farewell to Martin Fowler on p4, ex-EastEnder James Bye is teaming up with a host of ex-soapies for his next gig. Playing posh Mr Darcy in the theatre play Death Comes to Pemberley, a sequel to Jane Austen’s iconic Pride and Prejudice, James will be joined by Lin Blakley – who played Walford’s Pam ‘Birdie’ Coker from 2014 to 2017 – as well as Lisa Faulkner, aka Wilmott-Brown’s daughter, Fi Browning, circa 2017. Meanwhile, from up Weatherfield way, Todd Boyce – aka killer Stephen Reid – will also join the play. “I’m looking forward to not being trodden on, Martin was trodden on for the last 10 years!” laughs James about his new role. “I feel very sad to put Martin to bed and never…

Elsewhere in the dramatic flashback, Leela’s behaviour becomes worryingly erratic. Mercedes tries to talk to her mate and finds her with a positive pregnancy test. Emotional Leela admits she was sexually assaulted a few months earlier at Theresa’s birthday party in the woods, but was too drunk to remember who it was that attacked her. Mercy pleads with her traumatised pal to tell Joel, but Leela wants to forget the whole incident. Will there be clues to the eventual revelation that it was abusive brother-in-law Abe who was behind the assault?…

A bi has a showdown with a handsome stranger this week, which quickly progresses from fighting to flirting! And the big twist? She has no idea the fella who she’s drawn to is actually Carl Webster, the bad boy brother of her husband, Kevin! “Poor Kevin’s going through a lot right now, and it’s putting a big strain on his and Abi’s relationship,” begins our Corrie insider. “His cancer diagnosis has understandably made him angry, and he’s taking it out on those who care about him. A visit from his brother should cheer Kev up, but it also might destroy his marriage!” Kevin’s seriously grumpy right now following Jack and Hope’s naughty antics. When concerned Abi tries to get her hubby to calm down and see reason, she’s shocked when…

Hi, Amy! Were you shocked to learn what Tracy had been doing? Yes, especially as it was going on a few months before anyone, including me, found out! Tracy was in survival mode when she started stealing stuff from the shop, and in the moment it was fight or flight to provide for Frankie. Do you think Leyla would have stopped it, if she hadn’t died in the limo crash? I think she would’ve been Tracy’s saving grace. Leyla had that loyalty to Pollard to either expose it or make Tracy put an end to it. Was she too ashamed to tell Vanessa earlier? From Tracy’s perspective, I get why she didn’t want her rich, older sister bailing her out. She doesn’t want to keep asking for favours. Are you…

Dee-Dee takes a stand this week, as she tackles the racial injustice she suffered during childbirth. Will she find the answers that she deserves? In the corner shop flat, Dee-Dee opens up to Sarah about the negligence she experienced at the hands of the hospital. Now unable to carry any more children, the solicitor announces that she wants to ensure that no other woman receives the same inexcusable treatment. “Dee-Dee knows that she can trust Sarah,” reflects our Corrie spy. “The two friends share an honest chat, and it becomes clear that Dee-Dee isn’t going to just forget about what’s happened. It’s not only herself that she’s focused on, she cares for other women who could find themselves in the same situation.” Later, a health care professional comes to visit…

Jo gets annoyed this week when she feels pushed out by Andy and Katie, but soon finds a way to put herself back in the spotlight. Jo jumps at the chance to help at the livery business when Katie can’t make a meeting. But her delight darkens when Katie later criticises her skills. Smarting, devious Jo ‘accidentally’ creates a distraction as Katie is about to ride off and spooks her horse. Katie is thrown to the ground and finds herself hospitalised with her injuries, leaving Jo delighted to be on hand to help out Andy with his every want and need. Elsewhere, Laurel enjoys that old soap cliché of sitting on the stairs staring at a positive pregnancy test. How will Ashley feel about her news? WHERE TO WATCH… CORONATION…

There’s always drama and chaos when Daisy’s mum Christina wafts in and out of Corrie, and her latest stint on the Street looks to be a corker. Daisy has recruited her mum in her mission to bring down Jenny, after discovering that the Rovers’ landlady concealed the truth about a £60k windfall from Daisy’s father. So the opportunity to get one over on the woman who destroyed her marriage is just too delicious for Christina to resist, especially if it means getting her greedy mitts on a slice of the pie. “Christina and Daisy are feeling very vengeful,” grins actress Amy Robbins, who plays the scheming minx. “They would be very happy to see Jenny lose the pub over this. In fact, they’re happy to see her lose everything.” Here,…

There aren’t many jobs where you could spend your first day racing a quad bike through the Yorkshire Dales. But for Shebz, that was exactly what he ended up doing! “Being a Bradford boy, I was in my element!” he smiles. “It was so sick, racing through the farm. But there are scenes coming out soon that top that action even more. I can’t reveal too much; but Kammy turns into a proper daredevil!”…

Soap fans have been seeing a pair of familiar faces in an unexpected place recently, with Corrie star Ryan Thomas and his brother, Waterloo Road and Emmerdale actor Adam, taking the helm of new Saturdaynight gameshow 99 To Beat. However, their presenting gig doesn’t mean the two stars have given up on the drama. Adam has recently been on screens in schoolyard soap Waterloo Road, and as we speak to Ryan, he’s busy preparing for his return to Corrie as Jason Grimshaw after nine years away. “I’m super-excited to go back,” grins Ryan, who will reprise his role as part of screen mum Sue Cleaver’s (Eileen) leaving storyline. “It was Sue that made the phone call to me and said: ‘Would you come back for my exit storyline?’ And I…

BULLSEYE! There are some serious issues going on in the soaps, yet this week’s Bullseye is reserved for the infectiously brilliant Ross Barton of Emmerdale – simply for making us laugh and being a darn right menace! And, given that his much-missed brother Pete also happens to make an appearence on this page, it seemed a sensible, if not totally deliberate, decision, to have our cake and eat it! When the most talked about show in the country shines a light on the tricky subject of a police strip search. Also seen recently in Adolescence. Forgive us, but if there was ever a moment for Queen Suki to chew someone up and spit out the bones, this was it. The thing that scares us most when it comes to Ruby?…
