Trouble kicks off in the Street as Dev accuses Kelly of leaking the naked video of Asha, which has gone viral, prompting Gary to stand up for the tearaway teen.

Jean has bipolar affective disorder, a mental health condition that sees sufferers go through periods of depression to episodes of mania or hypomania. All cases are different, so treatment has to be tailored to each patient, meaning that a sufferer coming off their medication has to be managed carefully.

Bipolar UK, the national charity that supports those affected, advises this: “Whatever the individual’s circumstances, it’s important that the decision to stop their medication is made in conjunction with their doctor. If a person is well at the time, this poses fewer problems –…

We’re back in the Lake District to rejoin 10-year-old autistic Joe, who – along with his nearest and dearest – is having to navigate some big changes. It’s two years since we last saw the clan, and Joe’s parents, Alison and Paul, are now divorced.

There’s a long history of black artists in particular leaving America and coming to Paris to make art and music, so I was also intrigued by what that was about and how it might apply in a contemporary way.” A key element of the series is Elliot’s…

Being the boss is never easy – but when Bear took the helm at The Mill last year, he had a tougher time than most. “He started off blagging it quite a lot, as he wasn’t the first choice for the job – not at all!” chuckles Dex Lee, who plays him, as we join him for a long overdue catchup. “And when everyone suspected Bear of being involved in Jimmi’s arrest, his confidence was shot.

Although filming on nearly all TV drama has been suspended during the Covid-19 crisis, Isolation Stories – a four-part series of short tales – has been written and filmed during lockdown. Oscar-nominated producer Jeff Pope tells us why he was keen to reflect the current situation… “What interested me was all the little stories that were emerging,” says Jeff. “A friend was talking about how he and his wife had decided to split, but then they were forced to stay together. There were lots of tales like that, so I thought, ‘Wow, these really reflect what I’m sure lots of us are going through’. So I thought it would be worth trying to make a series of short stories.” But that presented a huge challenge, as all the actors had…
