By this point in the year, I expected the soaps to be calming down a bit as they save all the thrilling action for their epic Christmas episodes. But soap bosses are clearly not resting on their laurels, as the shocks keep on coming! Just this morning an email popped into my inbox to annouce that Pat Evans is set to return to EastEnders for a special episode in the coming weeks – well, you should have heard the collective gasp ripple round the office as everyone read the news. Hardly surprising given that Pat died on screen in 2012! What I love most about the soaps is their ability to keep us on our toes – even as a team of soap experts, we can never quite predict what’s…

Cindy’s life is on the line this week after she gets on the wrong side of newcomer Jasmine – and is pushed down the stairs in a brutal attack! Her attempts to play detective and uncover the truth about her mysterious new houseguest have devastating consequences. Will Cindy survive her injuries – and just what is Jasmine trying to conceal? “Jasmine’s identity has been a massive talking point ever since she rocked up in the Square,” begins our EastEnders spy. “It’s clear that she’s hiding something huge. But this week her true colours really come to the surface, and Cindy could be about to pay the ultimate price…” “It’s clear that Jasmine is hiding something huge” While Oscar has previously asked questions to find out about the life of his…

One of the most tragic parts of Corrie’s domestic abuse toryline is watching Todd walk on eggshells, knowing just how many times Theo has made his life a misery, made an apology, then done it all over again. It’s this repeated behaviour that breaks our hearts, and star James is fully aware of his character’s attachment to anger, guilt and drunkenness… “Theo does these things in that moment of rage and then the cycle of self-hatred starts,” notes the actor. “Where he loathes himself, he starts drinking, and then the cycle continu s again. Very often he blames Todd for it. He’s made Todd the scapegoat for all the thi gs that have gone wrong in his life since he met him…”…

As Sam Mitchell’s return approaches, EastEnders bosses have hinted the trouble maker has a new drama brewing on the horizon! Phil’s sister will make her entrance in the run-up to the festive season as actress Kim Medcalf returns to the role she left two years ago. The last time we saw Sam, she was run out of town by brother Phil after she threw a grenade at his marriage to Kat – by revealing that Phil had slept with Lola’s scheming mum, Emma. “Sam will certainly not receive a warm welcome from her family upon her return,” explains a Square spokesperson. “But with a troubling situation causing concern for Phil’s estranged sister, it soon becomes apparent that Sam needs her family more than ever.” Of course, a lot has changed…

KIDNAP! After Lachlan threatened to ruin Robert’s life with a false accusation, Aaron bundled the teenager into the boot of his car. At first, Robert was clearly mortified by his boyfriend’s drastic act but went along with it, and even whacked some tape over Lachlan’s mouth when he got too rowdy for his liking. Not your usual type of teamwork… REVENGE! Both Aaron and Robert were intent on making Lee, the man who raped Victoria, pay for his despicable deed. Before Robert eventually killed Lee, he and Aaron posed as customers at Lee’s car dealership to secure a test drive with him. The couple hoped to record Lee confessing all but, in the car, Robert saw red – resulting in a heated roadside exchange. PLOTS! While engaged to Chrissie, Robert…

David & Shona’s agony! In a special Corrie episode we heard David and Shona’s thoughts while awaiting their hospital appointment after their sad baby news. And you were all heartbroken for the couple... I was nervous to watch Corrie’s special episode. Getting bad news about a pregnancy is never easy and I thought they handled the mix of emotions so well. The frustration, awkwardness with your partner and the struggle to think of anything else. It felt so authentic. Clara, Stockport I’m glad the inner thoughts element of the episode didn’t last the entire time because it felt like I was watching Peep Show! I understand why David and Shona’s inner thoughts were important but I wish they’d kept it as a normal episode. It was distracting. Terri, Stoke-on-Trent I’m…

FINAL WORDS When Jasmine was mowed down by Nigel’s car, she feared she was about to die in the road – and she was furious that she hadn’t carried out her revenge plan. “She’s ruined everything,” she told Nigel. “She needs to pay for what she did.” Is Jasmine targeting Cindy? FRUIT BASKET In hospital, Jasmine received a fruit basket, which she told Oscar was from her mum – but the note attached was far from the well wishes of a loving parent. “Rest up and get well soon,” it read. “Need you back on top form.” Who is Jasmine working for? SECRET SEARCH Jasmine turned to crime and stole Anthony’s surgery keys, to the surprise of Oscar. She secretly broke into the surgery and was able to log into the…

There’s more to Weatherfield’s Driscoll family than meets the eye, with reports claiming that Maggie may have killed somebody many years before the family moved to the cobbles! Nobody has a clue what she did, but skeletons could come tumbling out of the closet around Christmas time, causing an explosive family showdown. Meanwhile, a familiar face will turn up amid the drama, as ex-EastEnders star Aidan O’Callaghan joins Corrie as a mysterious character reported to be called Alan… “Rumour has it the terrible truth about Maggie will be revealed in a special flashback episode exploring the Driscolls’ dramatic backstory,” whispers a cobbles insider. “We know Maggie has two sons, could ‘Alan’ be Ben’s previously mentioned absent brother?” Fans will recall ex-Walford star Aidan was involved in a hard-hitting storyline during…

DO … Give them an incentive Back in 2011, when Hollyoaks’ Cindy wanted Darren all to herself, she paid his ex Suzanne £200,000 to clear off back to Spain – and shockingly, Suzanne accepted! Surely business bigwig Carla has a spare few grand pocket change that she can use to fob off Becky? DON’T … Send them to prison After Rob Donovan killed Tina McIntyre, his fiancée Tracy agreed to run away with him – but she lured him to a warehouse to get him arrested! Although justice was served, Rob has broken out of prison and sought refuge in Tracy twice since then – so it’s maybe not the best method for banishing an ex. DO … Tell them straight When Kelly Windsor returned to Emmerdale in 2011 after…

Lauren falls victim to a cruel con this week, when sick fraudsters promise to deliver a treatment plan for their vulnerable son, Jimmy. When Lauren and Peter are bombarded with information about new treatments for visually impaired children, Lauren is eager to hear more. The doting mum contacts the so-called doctor, who requests £3,000 as an initial payment. But as Lauren later discovers that it was all a grim ruse, how will she cope with the truth? “You can only imagine the panic that Lauren is feeling inside,” reveals our Albert Square source. “Her whole world crumbles as she tries to process how this could be happening to her. Obviously, it goes without saying that it’s evil to scam anyone, but to exploit a young mum over her baby’s health…

“I know it’ll be cold in my cell but you, you’ll be burning where you are. It was us, or Harry. And I’m glad it was us.” Say that again when yer serving a 10-stretch. “Men are like a tall glass of wee in the Sahara. Necessary, but hard to stomach.” Blerk! “There was a time when your mother was called to school because you had eaten a poor little lad’s packed lunch!” “Do you blame me? Gail’s sandwiches are awful; who gives a kid marmite sandwiches?” You either love it or you hate it. “I’m sick.” “You don’t need two arms to hose a chicken shed.” You don’t get this on Clarkson’s Farm. “So that’s it? You’ll despise me forever.” “Anything to get her mind off that flippin’ cat.”…

Even though DI Costello has caused a huge amount of grief for Lisa, the dodgy detective has a vested interest in making sure that her life is as smooth sailing as possible. Otherwise, Costello could find himself having to answer plenty of uncomfortable questions, that only he and Becky know the real answers to. And as Daon tells us, that means his alter ego has reason to back Lisa and Carla’s relationship in the long-run… “If Lisa wasn’t married to Becky, he would probably champion Lisa’s marriage to Carla to keep Lisa happy,” Daon muses. “A lot of his relationship with Lisa has been to keep her happy, to keep her not wanting to delve into what happened in the past with Becky. He’s going to follow anything that will…

Neighbours fans, cast and crew all seem divided over whether December’s finale will really be the end of the show. We’ve seen the beloved soap return from the dead before, after all. The current situation looks bleak given the studios in Nunawading, Melbourne – the Lassiters complex and Ramsay Street backyard sets – have been returned to the real-life landlord as they’re being lined up for redevelopment. “I think they could still pull a rabbit out of the hat!” declares Ben. “Never say never. The producers have ended the show in a great way, that allows the opportunity to come back – potentially in a different form. “It’s sad that the studios are being torn apart,” he adds. “The spirit of Neighbours is the characters and the people. It would…

This new contest sees six couples vie for the prize of a lifetime: a five-bedroom B&B in rural France.

BULLSEYE! “To Faith Dingle: wicked, wise and wonderful,” was the statement from Victoria that perfectly summed up the surprise Emmerdale cameo from the much-missed matriarch. In a week bursting with special episodes from the ITV soaps, the heartfelt scene of her visiting Robert in prison was the moment we’ll remember most. Gawd love you, Sally Dexter! “We can get rid of the body, we must know someone!” wailed Nicola. If only we could think of a suggestion… or Six. EastEnders to Corrie: We see Debbie Webster’s flat and raise you the lamps for Elaine’s boutique hotel. The year 2020 - as if we need reminding of that special time.

Pam St Clement is set to reprise her role as Walford icon Pat Evans next month – almost 14 years after Pat’s death! Pat will appear in a special episode as part of Nigel’s dementia story, in which Nigel’s memories and altered reality take him back to the 1990s. As his symptoms intensify after an emotional evening at a festive screening of his short film, Nigel finds himself coming face-to-face with old friend Pat in the Vic… “I was both surprised and excited to be asked back to tread the streets of Walford once again, and to be involved in Nigel’s touching dementia story,” reveals much-loved actress Pam of her return. “It was lovely to be welcomed back by those with whom I had worked for so long. It was…

In this day and age, it’s very possible to be ripped off in a variety of different ways. From social media scams to gift card cons, it’s important to ensure that your money is safe and sound at all times. In that spirit, BBC Scam Safe begins this week, with the aim to raise awareness about scams through the power of television. Lauren’s storyline is EastEnders’ bold contribution to the campaign, but also keep an eye out for a special ep of Countryfile, which will see presenter Tom Heap investigate con artists who pretend to be food businesses, such as small farms and supermarkets, then order products that never actually make it to their final destination. Plus, Bargain Hunt’s Christina Trevanion will also play her part by drawing attention to…

I just can’t Bear it! It’s so important that soaps keep telling underrepresented stories, and Bear’s modern slavery ordeal is no different.

I’m hooked on Hollyoaks right now and the total mess Dillon has got himself into! I thought it was bad enough he got Leah pregnant while Lucas was inside, but now he’s hiding the snog with Ste and it’s obvious his feelings run deep. I was mortified for poor Lucas when he proposed. Yes, the lad’s an absolute mess and needs help with his anger, but imagine your boyfriend getting off with your dad! Mortifying! Gracie, Luton It’s…

Proving that most soap bad boys are big old softies deep down, Ross Barton’s evolution from village villain to comedy genius has made him one of Emmerdale’s most well-rounded, well-loved characters. Don’t be fooled, you still wouldn’t cross him, but these days Ross is much more likely to make you laugh than beat you up – well, most of the time! We catch up with the always-entertaining Michael Parr, who returned to the role of Ross in 2024 after a six-year absence, to discuss his alter ego’s past, present and future… Hi, Michael! Has Ross’ return lived up to your expectations? I didn’t think we would go quite so far down the comedy route this time. He was always eccentric, he likes to poke people and be the centre of…

It’s great we’re showing you can get decent wigs if you lose your hair due to medical treatment.” REUNITED! “I bumped into Hollie-Jay Bowes [who played Michaela] in the corridor the other day, she’d come in to be a guest on the Hollyoaks podcast.
