If you’re reading these words, I can only assume that you survived another Christmas – so, congratulations! How did it go for you? Was it a traditional one? “Now, our thoughts turn to 2019…” Did your partner organise a surprise wedding ceremony on Christmas Day, causing you to faint dead away in shock? Or did your cousin tell you that your husband was the secret father of her newborn baby? Or, perhaps, you’ve become obsessed with the idea that your old mum is about to fall prey to her con artist lover who looks suspiciously like Nigel Havers? (If, in fact, all three of these things happened, then do write and let us know, as our sister magazine Real People would love to hear from you.) But so much for…

While Paddy and Mandy share a passionate backstory, Dominic Brunt, who plays the shocked vet, insists that Paddy’s moved on… “Paddy and Mandy do have a little flirt, and he remembers how well they got along – but he completely and utterly loves Chas,” insists Dominic. “Especially after everything they’ve been through, he doesn’t want to lose her.” That’s all well and good, although should Vinnie turn out to be Paddy’s son, what then? “Paddy’s that dim, all that goes over his head – even after he meets Vinnie,” grins the star. “The story could go in any direction, and the opportunities are endless. I’m chuffed to have Lisa – and Mandy – back. Me and Lisa have stayed friends, and it’s like she’s never been away!”…

It may be a tough week for Ollie, although at least he has one thing to smile about – as he and Brooke finally lock lips! “It’s always going to be a bit awkward getting together with your best mate’s ex!” grins Aedan. “But Ollie does the right thing by checking that it’s okay with Imran first. “I like to think that Ollie and Brooke are a good match,” he adds. “Brooke’s been there for him during this whole ordeal, and that really means a lot to him.”…

Why did Johnny take the blame for his wife, Jenny? It was a split-second decision, and he didn’t think it through. It was a no-brainer for Johnny as there were the drink driving consequences, and the fact Jenny is in a terrible state emotionally. It’s an old-fashioned, honourable gesture on his part. Could they lose the Rovers? Absolutely! It puts the pub at risk, and a lot is going on so they could both be taken out of there for a while. I’ve got some good, strong women who could run that pub in Johnny and Jenny’s absence, though – the Connor girls will pull a pint or two for me. How would Johnny cope in prison? Not well, from what he says. Johnny isn’t designed for prison, it would…

It’s a big week for teens Ryder and Raffy as they receive their Year 11 exam results – but only one of them is left celebrating… Having been diagnosed with epilepsy recently, Raffy is delighted to learn she’s been given special consideration and has passed the year. But as she tells Ryder how much it means to have him by her side as they move up to Year 12 together, little does she realise that her best pal has actually flunked all of his exams! Desperate not to let Raffy down, Ryder tells Roo and Alf that he wants to re-sit the tests so he can pass the year, and move up at the same time as his friend. But will headteacher Maggie agree to help him?…

FAIR CITY Mairead turns into the green-eyed monster this week, after seeing the loving dynamic between Will and Cristiano. Elsewhere, Heather allows Ellie to decide on whether to go back to Brazil – will she stay or go? Also, Paul clashes with Oisin and Callum over Vinos. RIVER CITY In Shieldinch, Stevie goes to extreme lengths this week to save Callum from the law – but a shocking revelation leaves him reeling. Meanwhile, Ellie’s appalled to learn Maggie’s back on the booze. Plus, Ruby’s rushed to hospital after a firework accident! THE ARCHERS Brian holds an impromptu birthday party for Jennifer this week, in a bid to cheer her up. But with rising tensions in the family, will it work? Also, Jazzer, Philip and Kirsty think of a way to…

What drama can we expect for Keegan in the New Year? Well, his father Mitch is back so there’s lots going on there. I can’t say too much, but Keegan doesn’t have the best relationship with his dad, so it won’t be straightforward. Keegan has had some very dark times – are they set to continue? Or is there light at the end of the tunnel for him? What happened to Keegan last year isn’t something that he can just forget. He’s still dealing with what happened to Shakil [Kazemi, who died after he and Keegan were both stabbed], so viewers will see that. I hope that with Mitch back there might be light ahead for him. How will Keegan react if he finds out about Keanu and Louise? It’s…

Following the trauma nanny Alice has put them through over the past few months, the Rebecchis will be hoping that 2019 brings them a big change in fortunes. Sadly, there’s no chance of that after Sonya suddenly collapses – is something seriously wrong with her? “Sonya is rushed to hospital, where doctors deliver some devastating news,” our Ramsay Street insider tells us. “Viewers will have to wait to see what’s wrong – but what Sonya and Toadie are set to face in the coming months will eclipse anything wicked Andrea and Alice could ever concoct for them.” The Rebecchis have weathered everything that’s been thrown their way so far – yet will this latest blow be the one that breaks them? Terese’s two men! The love triangle between Terese, Paul…

As much as Inside Soap loves to sit down of a lunchtime and watch Neighbours , you just can’t beat the show’s 80s heyday. So when we received an invite to interview stars Stefan Dennis and Annie Jones (who play Paul and Jane) during their recent trip to London, it felt as though all our childhood dreams were coming true! And even Annie herself can’t quite believe that the two of them are back together in the show more than 30 years after first working alongside each other on screen. “It’s a bit surreal!” chuckles the actress, as we quiz her on their reunion. “Stef and I often joke that back in the day we were in the young group, and now we’re…

It’s clear that Paul and Gemma haven’t seen each other for quite some time – and there must be a reason for that! Since arriving on the cobbles and moving in with Rita, Gemma has tried hard to turn her life around and put the troubles of her past behind her. So could Paul’s arrival threaten to derail her fresh start? “There’s lots of different stuff happening over New Year – which is quite revealing,” actress Dolly-Rose Campbell, who plays Gemma, told us at the Inside Soap Awards in October. “There’s a blast from the past, which will show different elements of Gemma’s character, and will partly explain why she’s the way she is. There’s lots to come!”…

1 Andrew Scarborough was born on 30 November 1973 in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. The actor attended Harrogate Grammar School, and admits he wasn’t always on his best behaviour. “I was happy at school,” says Andrew. “But I was a naughty boy, I suppose!” The star has an older sister, Victoria, and the siblings were members of Woodlands Drama Group in their hometown, where Andrew discovered his love of acting. 2 Andrew made his theatre debut in 1993, while the star’s first TV role came in the same year with a minor part in Casualty . Since then, Andrew has been no stranger to our screens, appearing in Holby City, Doctors and EastEnders to name a few. In 2008, the actor joined medical drama The Royal Today, in which…

Last year saw Dancing On Ice make a return to Sunday nights after a four-year absence, and viewers gave it such a warm welcome that the ice almost melted! A recommission was quickly confirmed, and this week, six of the 12 competitors – including TOWIE’s Gemma Collins, Corrie’s Jane Danson (Leanne) and ex-Neighbours star Mark Little (Joe Mangel) – will present their first routines with their professional partners. Inside TV caught up with judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean to find out what they’re looking for… What do you both make of the line-up this year? Chris It’s really good – I think it’s one of our strongest casts so far. There are a…

EMMERDALE Moira in danger! NO ONE SAID LIFE WITH CAIN WOULD BE EASY… The chain of disaster that was set in motion by Kim Tate’s brief return to Emmerdale claims Moira next week. She’s been helping to keep Cain’s killer secret for some time now – but the stress of the situation has steadily become too much for anyone to bear. And as Cain loses his cool, it’s his poor wife who finds herself in the line of fire… HOLLYOAKS New love for Goldie? She doesn’t have the best track record with men, but Goldie has her eye on a new fella next week – and as usual, he’s an inappropriate choice! So, who’s the ‘lucky’ bloke? CORRIE Too much too soon! As Rana’s divorce comes through, Kate is keen…

Rainie is feeling run down and experiencing dizzy spells, you say? Well, this isn’t Inside Soap’s first rodeo when it comes to women suddenly fainting for no apparent reason – especially women who have spent the night with not one but two Branning brothers in the space of the past three months! Rainie is adamant that she can’t have children, but we wonder if a twist of fate might mean that her funny turn is in fact the result of an unplanned pregnancy – setting the stage for an extremely juicy ‘who’s the daddy?’ storyline. Just a thought……

Evie continues her manipulative scheme to drive a wedge between Tiff and Bernie this week – and steps up her game by snogging Tiff on the lips, making sure that Bernie gets a good view! “Tiffany is appalled to see that children are involved” Things seemed to be turning a corner for Tiff and Bernie over Christmas, with the teens growing even closer. However, hopes that the girls might end up becoming more than just good friends have been threatened by gang boss Evie, who continues to pull Tiff’s strings. And this week, at the café, Tiffany is made to feel uneasy by the drug dealer’s sudden flirtatious behaviour towards her. What exactly is Evie up to? “She plays mind games, this girl,” reckons our Walford spy. “Evie accuses Tiff…

Xanthe makes a life-changing decision about her future this week, and decides to leave Erinsborough. Initially, Xanthe considers applying for nursing courses at local university Eden Hills – rather than taking her place studying medicine in Toowoomba. But following a persuasive phone call from ex-boyfriend Ben, and a passionate speech from Gary, Xanthe realises she has to follow her dreams. So, after she and Sheila share a touching moment, Xanthe bids an emotional goodbye. How will she fare away from Ramsay Street?…

YOUR UNSUNG HEROES! A few weeks ago, we asked you to write in and tell us about the soap characters and stars who you think aren’t getting enough attention at the moment – and are in need of a decent storyline. Thank you for all your letters. Here’s a selection of the most heartfelt… KATHY COME HOME! For what was possibly the biggest soap return of all time, Kathy might as well be a glorified extra in Walford these days – even Shrimpy has more scenes! She seems to disappear the minute she has a whiff of a plot, which amounted to a limp snog with Masood. Put her back at the heart of EastEnders where she belongs! | Marian SAVE OUR ERIC! Seeing Emmerdale’s Eric’s amazing scene with Chas…

Hey, Ali! What does 2019 have in store for Emma? More love! Emma’s always on the search for her Mr Right, and so far, she and Chesney are doing really well. He’s just so lovely, and that’s what she wants. He’s a family man and caring, so I think they’re a very good match. Could Emma and Ches have a future together? Definitely! Me and Sam [Aston, who plays Ches] really enjoy working together and have a good chemistry on screen. Emma falls in love easily, and in the long run is looking to settle down. But she’s still young, so she has plenty of time for that. Viewers know Gemma has a crush on Ches too – could it cause trouble? Maybe. But Emma did check with her first,…

Mel’s world is to be turned upside down in the New Year, when her crazed son, Hunter, tries to strangle Jack! Stars Tamzin Outhwaite (Mel), Scott Maslen (Jack) and Charlie Winter (Hunter) were spotted filming on location recently for the dramatic episode, which is expected to air in the weeks following the dramatic events of Mel’s New Year wedding to bigamist Ray. If Hunter ends up with blood on his hands, how far will Mel go to protect him? “All I can say is that a mother will do anything for her kids,” hints Tamzin. “The love of a mum sometimes turns her into a lioness that has to protect her children – pretty much at all costs.” Whispers from the set suggest that Jack will be forced to call…

How does Damon see in the New Year, Jacob? Maxine attempts to make him jealous by flirting with Zack! Damon’s trying to watch out for her because she’s really drunk, but he flips out a bit at one point. Liberty makes up a song about him and everyone in the Dog is singing it – he just has enough! Yikes! And things won’t get better with his dad’s abuse trial looming… No. As we’ve seen, Damon’s made up a lie, and now it’s about whether he can go through with presenting it to all the lawyers in court. He has mixed emotions – he doesn’t want to see his dad banged up, however Damon has picked his side. This is killing him, but he can’t really show that in front…

CHLOE’S HEARTACHE There’s new love on the horizon for Chloe – but can she really lay her feelings for Elly to rest? WHO STEALS DOG REGGIE? David and Aaron are devastated when their pooch Reggie is dognapped! Will they ever see her again? SHAUN SHAKES THINGS UP Finn’s brother Shaun causes a rift between Bea and Ned. Is their romance over before it’s even begun? TO HAVE AND TO HOLD? Robbo pops the question! Will Jasmine agree to become his wife? FEELING POSITIVE? Tori is nervous as she takes her pregnancy test. Are she and Robbo set to be parents?…

Shocks and surprises are on the way for the Holby team in 2019, as the medical drama continues to celebrate its 20th anniversary with the return of even more familiar faces! Hot on the heels of super surgeon Tom Campbell-Gore will be Ric’s ex-wife, Lola Griffin – played by Sharon D Clarke – who will be back for a trip down memory lane with her former husband as he reflects on his years at the hospital… “It’s fantastic to have Sharon back, and a great coup for the show,” beams Holby’s exec producer Simon Harper. “We couldn’t let the anniversary pass without the appearance of one of Ric’s many ex-wives to ruffle his feathers!” Other returning cast members are set to follow suit over the course of the next 12…

There’s a well-known face joining the ranks of Holby City this week in the form of actress Dawn Steele, whom viewers will remember for her roles in a variety of popular TV shows – among them Monarch Of The Glen, Tinsel Town and 2017 smash hit Liar. The star’s new alter ego, Ange Goddard, is set to provide Keller ward with a fresh injection of medical expertise – which we reckon must come easily to Dawn after her role as GP Annie Murdoch in BBC Scotland soap River City. But she’s quick to correct us on that assumption… “You’re right – I’ve played a doctor before, but she didn’t practise an awful lot of medicine,” chuckles Dawn, as she joins us for a chat in between filming. “I was too…

In this world, there are the haves, and there are the have-nots. That’s very clearly illustrated in this new six-part drama centred on Sam, a cleaner working at a financial firm in the City for people who earn more in five minutes than she earns all week. With two children to bring up, mounting debts and a gambling addiction that she’s reluctant to admit to herself, Sam’s really feeling the pinch. But when she overhears one of the traders at work talking about an insider deal, she has an idea to use this illicit information to solve her money problems. “As soon as I got the script, she just jumped off the page,” grins Sheridan Smith, who plays Sam. “You immediately like her. She’s not doing anything wrong, she’s just…

It’s a long wait for the next series of Strictly , so if you need to satisfy a craving for choreography, look no further. This new competition is open to dancers of all ages and specialising in any genre, but there’s a twist: the panel – Glee’s Matthew Morrison, Strictly’s Oti Mabuse and pop singer Cheryl – have no say in the first round, as the studio audience alone decides who advances to the next stage… “The audience’s comments were some of my favourite parts!” chuckles Matthew. “It’s hard to sit there as someone who’s studied dance [when someone doesn’t get through], but I do understand it at the same time. There were a lot of cultural dances that…

HIMESH HEADS DOWN UNDER Former EastEnder Himesh Patel (Tamwar Masood) has landed a role in upcoming BBC2 drama The Luminaries. He’ll play Emery Staines in Eleanor Catton’s adaptation of her 2013 Man Booker Prize winning novel of the same name, which has just started filming in New Zealand. The show has been described as ‘an epic story of love, murder and revenge, set on the Wild West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island in the boom years of the 1860s gold rush’. CROSSING OVER Best known to soap fans as Walford’s fearsome Cora Cross, actress Ann Mitchell can next be seen in a very different setting, as she joins the cast of Call The Midwife for an important storyline later in the series. Sadly, we can’t reveal the character Ann…

CORONATION STREET Fave characters The recasting of Michelle’s sons Ryan and Ali is the gift that keeps on giving. It’s not a case of which one you’d choose – but in what order. Most OMG! moment The earth-shattering howl let out by Johnny when he discovered his son Aidan’s suicide will haunt us for years. What went wrong? Jim McDonald’s fling with a young woman pretending to be his dead daughter was the most appalling story told in soap this year. Bleurgh! Our dream for 2019 Stunned Eileen opens the front door to none other than her late hubby’s twin brother, Matt Phelan… HOLLYOAKS Favourite character Mercedes has always been our queen of Hollyoaks village, but the character’s return to the show during the Magaluf episodes was utterly epic. And…

Welcome back to the Dales, Lisa! Does it feel as if you’ve never been away? It’s been brill – but it’s really weird! The schedule is very different now. Although they’ve been kind and eased me in slowly, so it’s great. Mandy put me on the map, and I had seven wonderful years at Emmerdale which I cherish, so it’s been lovely to get a glimpse of what’s happened to Mandy since. How did the offer to return come about? I had a secret meeting, and once bosses told me the story it didn’t take me long to think about it. It won’t be what viewers expect! Was it the story that tempted you back? It wasn’t the storyline – I’m the type of person who can’t leave anything open-ended.…

“I wish I could tell you who the attacker is – but I can’t!” laughs Michelle. “We have to think that it’s someone from her past. Is there a connection to Charity or to the Dingles? We’ll just have to wait and see!” When we probe Michelle further, she does buckle ever so slightly, admitting that she knows the identity of the criminal. “I was surprised,” she tells us. “Do the viewers know this person? Yes, the audience has met them before. That’s intriguing, isn’t it? And it’s definitely a ‘he’.” So, is there more about Vanessa’s past that we aren’t aware of? “We don’t know anything about Vanessa’s mum,” ponders Michelle. “We know about her dad, though. He has probably made quite a few enemies, because we know that…

Furious Liz confronts the Connors this week, swearing revenge for Johnny running her over. She doesn’t know that it was Jenny behind the wheel, and that terrified Johnny is taking the rap for his wayward wife. So, as she sees Johnny in the Street on her return from the hospital, battered Liz warns him to watch out as she’s going to make him pay. But she’s in for a surprise as Jenny knocks at her door and asks for a moment of her time. “Jenny’s a desperate woman, and wants to save her man,” whispers our Weatherfield source. “Liz can’t believe it when Jenny begs her to drop the charges and let Johnny go free, but soon realises it’s guilt that’s eating her. It doesn’t take long for Liz to…

Heartbroken Mary waves off Angie and George this week – as they leave the cobbles to start a new life in South Africa. Ever since Jude walked back into her life, Mary has adored having her cherished son, daughter-in-law and grandson to dote on. But her dreams of a happy family life have been dashed thanks to pathological liar Jude.

STYLISH STACE EastEnders’ Stacey has been wearing a really lovely leather jacket on screen recently – it has a red stripe down the sleeves. Do you know where I can get one? | Keeley Stacey’s ‘Black Side Stripe Leather Look Biker Jacket’ is from Miss Selfridge, and is currently half price YOUNG STAR I’ve really been enjoying watching teenager Juliet in Hollyoaks – the actress who plays her is a great asset to the show. Where have I seen her before? | Gina Star Niamh Blackshaw had a brief stint in Corrie last year – she played Lara Cutler, one of the girls whom Nathan  Curtis groomed. Bethany tracked her down and asked her to give evidence against Nathan in court, but sadly scared Lara took…

He’ll return for a stint in the spring for a plot that involves Mary. “We’ve really missed him,” shares Iain.…

HOLA, LOLA! A huge surprise is in store for Billy and Jay when Lola Pearce – played by Danielle Harold – returns to Walford with her little girl, Lexi. “Billy’s best girl will be back in town,” Kate tells us. “And how will Jay react to seeing the love of his life after all these years?” A CLEAN SLATER? It’s going to be a big year for the Slater family, with Jean and Stacey at the heart of the drama. “Jean is going to have a new challenge coming her way,” reveals Kate. “But she might find that it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to her…”…

How did you feel about Billy finally turning up? It was a really good ending to the year for me. It’s been life-changing – Billy’s such an exciting character. Hopefully the viewers will be looking forward to seeing what’s around the corner for him. He comes in as if he’s untouchable, but he also has a vulnerable side, because of what’s happened in his past – and that’s nice to play out. Was it tricky to keep his arrival secret? It’s been hard – I’m not good at keeping secrets! It was a waiting game, but it’s so exciting he’s on screen now. I’m looking forward to finding out how everyone takes to him. It could go either way! How are Jessie and Marlon dealing with his return? Jessie was…

RISKY MOVE Jonny pressures Ste to step up his campaign against the Maaliks – but is Ste putting himself in danger by carrying out his new pal’s wishes?

Cops Colby and Chelsea are all set to tie the knot in 2019 – but their nuptials could end in tragedy, thanks to Colby’s stepdfather, Ross! Viewers will know that Colby spent years trying to track down his missing sister, Bella, who was kidnapped by Ross when she was just a child. Bella will soon be back in Colby’s life, but Ross is determined to put an end to their happy family reunion… “As you can see from our snaps, Colby and Chelsea are the picture of happiness on their wedding day,” gushes our Summer Bay spy. “But sadly their joy isn’t set to last for long! Ross turns up driving a limo, intent on ruining everything!” So what exactly does Ross have in mind? And will there be bloodshed…

Alicia is offered the opportunity of a lifetime in 2019, when Connie puts her forward for a prestigious new job! The position will offer medic Alicia a chance to really shine as she seeks to make the transition into paediatric medicine, and Connie is delighted to break the news that she has been accepted! But taking on the new role means moving away from Holby and leaving her boyfriend Ethan – so will Alicia decide to take a leap of faith and accept the post? “This could end up being Alicia’s big break, and she would be crazy to turn it down!” mutters our Casualty insider. “However, can she really bring herself to leave Ethan now that they’ve finally got it together? He would be completely devastated!” Meanwhile, Duffy waits…

Having played a plethora of telly roles, Dawn has enjoyed a plentiful and successful career. However, she says that no acting job will ever measure up to portraying veterinary nurse Alice Collins-Trevanion in the successful ITV series Wild At Heart, which was set in South Africa. “I was out there for four years, and we were surrounded by wildlife,” grins Dawn. “Hamley the giraffe was the absolute best – although I’ve probably talked about him too much over the years! I’ll never get another job like that again, which makes me a bit sad. It will always have a special place in my heart.”…
