We’re bringing you a whopping 16 pages of extra content as the soaps all ramp up the drama in the lead up to this year’s British Soap Awards – they’re all hoping to bag your votes in the coveted Best Soap category, and what better way to grab your attention than with some of the biggest and most dramatic plots of the year? Our bumper scoops section brings you news of a horrific car crash in EastEnders, the return of a much-loved favourite in Corrie, and deadly drama in Hollyoaks as the teen exploitation story reaches a shocking climax.

Laura-Jayne snoops behind the soap headlines… EastEnders is set to bid farewell to one of its biggest stars with the news that fan favourite Stacey Slater is bowing out of the show! Lacey Turner confirmed her decision alongside reports that she’s taking a break to focus on family and opportunities outside of Albert Square. “It’s time for myself and Stacey to take a rest – and who knows what Stacey will get up to in her time away?” muses Lacey, who gave birth to her third child, Gipsy Olive, earlier this year. “Knowing Stacey, it will never be boring!” The news comes as Stacey struggles with her grief in the wake of Martin’s death. Her mental health has begun to deteriorate rapidly, forcing the desperate Slaters to consider whether Stacey…

“The slurry pit needs emptying, now!” The slurry pit is already our new favourite character in Emmerdale. “It’s a good deal, and the only one you’re going to get.” “Excuse me, I used to be a WAG.” “Oh, really? Well now you’re just summit that rhymes with WAG and starts with an S and an L.” Brutal, even for Tracy Barlow’s thick skin. “The good news is you’re not dead.” “Half the village wishes you were.” Biggest laugh of the week. “And the bad?” “You think you can seriously barter with me, do you? Don’t make me scratch your eyes out when I’ve only just had me nails done.” We’d ask them to change the record, but it wouldn’t be half as fun! “I am a good mother!” “Is that…

Dawn’s deadly confession! The mystery of Who Pushed Joe didn’t stay secret for long in the Dales, but who guessed it would be his lover Dawn who gave him the shove? Some of you were shocked – but others had her sussed! I know Dawn killed Malone, but I was not expecting her to be the one who pushed Joe! I can’t work out what’s going on in her head. How can she still say she loves him after pushing him out the window? I suppose there’s a fine line between love and hate! Patricia, Sheffield I was convinced that we’d have another Cain and Kyle situation where someone would take the rap for Clemmie, but Dawn pushing Joe in revenge for what he said made a lot of sense.…

Ever since EastEnders’ Zack found out that Barney Mitchell was his biological son in a shocking paternity twist, he’s been fighting tooth and nail to forge a relationship with the teenager. With Barney’s murderous mum Nicola threatening Zack’s daughter Dolly up in Wakefield, and Nicola’s husband Teddy and son Harry’s violent tendencies posing a danger, Zack has managed to keep Barney’s true paternity a secret – until now. Fearing for his son’s safety, desperate Zack puts his plan to escape Walford with Barney into action – but it’s derailed after Teddy discovers the truth, setting off a horrific chain of events that will have terrible repercussions for all involved. Star James Farrar talks us through the dramatic storyline, and the consequences of Zack’s revelation… Hi, James! Zack’s been desperate to…

WEATHER WARNINGS “I love filming outdoors in the village on a sunny day, but even the tiniest bit of cloud and I’m like, ‘Put me inside, I really need a hot water bottle and a nice warm coat!’” FASHION FAVES “Vicky sometimes wears two-piece sets, like a strapless top and long pants or a top and a skirt that are the same fabric and I love them so much. I can’t wait to wear them!” FOOTIE FRIENDS “Me, Oscar Curtis, Ruby O’Donnell, Isabelle Smith and Nate Dass all went out to watch the football. We’re all Arsenal fans except Isabelle, and were a bit devastated because they lost the match!” SNEAK PEEK “I’ve been filming with Dillon and my family today – I can’t really say what, but it ties…

Victoria Sugden “Aaron does love a Sudgen, doesn’t he? He lost his virginity to Victoria, he’s been with Robert and John – the only one he hasn’t had is Andy! I was talking to Kelvin Fletcher about that the other day. If they cast a new Sugden now, I just think, ‘Well, Aaron’s going to have them as well, isn’t he?’” Ed Roberts “We didn’t get to see much of Aaron and Ed together, which was unfortunate, because I knew I wanted to take a break from Emmerdale and that was an exit storyline for me. But at least Ed is the only one of Aaron’s exes who isn’t dead or in prison!” Adam Barton “Adam was the first man Aaron tried to kiss! They were best friends, and that…

A long-lost relative sends you GPS coordinates to meet at 53.9000, 692 degrees north in the woods. Do you… A) Run for your life?B) Call the police?C) See A&B Pop these immortal words on Cindy’s tombstone when she’s gone. Gary’s quiff has been axed and we’re not okay. His new/old haircut screams 2009. Lauren looks fantastic, but would we want pics of us having just given birth projected to an entire pub? No, thanks! Moira’s idea that Mack looks like an extra out of Toy Story felt pretty accurate. To infinity, and beyond! BULLSEYE! If there’s one nice observation to emerge from Debbie’s developing story, it’s what a decent bloke Ronnie is. He’s protective, loyal and a genuine comfort to have at her side – which makes it even more…

CRASH CARNAGE RIP Uncle John, killed in a car crash in 2012 just as his wife Moira decided to give their marriage another go, following her fling with Cain… DRUGS TRAGEDY RIP cousin Holly, found dead after a heroin overdose in 2016 following years of a brutal battle with drug addiction… DEADLY PUSH RIP stepdad James, who fell to his death in 2016 when obsessed Emma shoved him off a flyover onto a busy bypass below because he didn’t love her anymore… FATAL SHOT RIP big bro Finn, shot by their mum Emma (her again) in 2017 when she was trying to escape being reprimanded for killing his dad… Families, eh?…

Who dies? A new Home and Away trailer has teased that one character is heading for tragedy, after the River Boys ambush Theo, Lacey, Sonny and Dana! Who is going to be the unlucky soul doomed for the chop? Baby love Congratulations are in store for Dales star Mike Parr (Ross), who’s annouced he’s expecting a baby with girlfriend Isabelle. The actor posted a cute pic of the couple on Instagram with the caption: “In our mum & dad era”. Cute! The end for Karl? It could be curtains for Doctor Karl Kennedy when the Ramsay Street stalwart winds up in a life-and-death situation next month. Is Darcy to blame?…

Hi, Ryan! How has Corrie been so far? It’s been great! Everyone’s been looking after me and I’ve just been having a really good time. It’s an inspiring place to work – as a young actor, it’s really exciting to be there! What’s Brody’s relationship with his ‘dad’ Mick like? He looks up to his dad – he’s his superhero. But he’s been bullied by him as a kid and told anything emotional isn’t masculine. Brody doesn’t like letting people in because his dad, who showed him what love is, hasn’t been the greatest example of that. What about his relationship with his mum, Lou? He and his mum are close, but he also kind of resents her because she hasn’t been that available for Brody. He has had to…

MITZEEE Minxy Mitz could reignite her fun feud with her arch-rival Mercedes – and with Maxine gone the village certainly needs a Minniver to liven things up a bit! BRENDAN BRADY Ultimate gangster Double B reuniting with his soul mate Ste would be a dream come true. Surely a prison break wouldn’t be that hard to organise, would it? JUSTIN BURTON Dead, you say? As if that matters in Hollyoaks! He ‘died’ off screen, perhaps the haunted heart-throb is in hiding? Bring his son Charlie back while you’re at it… SINEAD O’CONNOR Diane’s gobby daughter still has connections to other characters: she and Ste have a kid and she’s Freddie’s ex-wife! You’d hear her coming a mile off… JAMBO Cheeky chappy Jambo was a fan fave in the early days,…

FAIR CITY • Emma tries to steal a strand of Milo’s hair to prove that James is his dad – but is caught by his mum, Holly! Holly agrees to a DNA test for a price, which Emma keeps from James – but when he spies her handing Holly an envelope of cash, he’s certain Holly’s scamming them! Is James Milo’s father after all? Elsewhere, Joan’s attempt to play cupid for Melanie and Gar backfires when they butt heads. But they’re lovestruck when they see each other at the dance. Is this the start of their romance? THE ARCHERS • With the charging station officially open, Susan worries about how the village shop will cope. However, when she sees the competition, she’s in for a big shock! Also, Alice and…

One of the many things we love about Moira Dingle is that no matter what life throws at her, she’ll protect her family. Over the last nine months, the farmer has recovered from brain surgery and fixed her broken marriage, all while consoling her son Matty through the grief of losing his soulmate, Amy. However, Moira’s clan is set for even more turmoil this week – as long-lost Barton brother Lewis finally discovers the truth about his mum Emma’s death (see p8 for more on that!) Here, Natalie J Robb explains that Lewis turning up out of the blue is just one of the many reasons why Moira’s patience is being pushed to the limit… “The timing of it stinks,” Natalie tells us. “There’s loads of things going on amongst…

In the early days of Zack and Nicola’s feud, fans will remember that she silenced him by luring him to Harry’s Barn and having a gang of burly henchmen beat him up – meaning that some incredibly realistic work from the EastEnders make-up team was needed to create the bruised look. “Zack’s having a tough time,” shared James on his Instagram post. “What will happen next?” With the stakes now even higher, and Nicola having been revealed as a heartless, cold-blooded killer since she callously had Zack attacked, we’re left wondering the same. Could Zack’s showdown with Nic’s off-the-rails offspring Harry result in yet another lengthy session in the soap’s special-effects make-up chair for James?…

“We’d go back to Emmerdale – but only if Leyla had an evil twin!” “We do work quite well together as an acting duo,” beams ex-Emmerdale star Roxy Shahidi, as she sits beside her former screen love interest, Matthew Wolfenden. “But they’ve not given us an Emmerdale spin-off yet!” “Well, you’re dead!” points out Matthew, reasonably. “It’ll have to be David living with Leyla’s ghost.” The pair are in high spirits as we sit down for an exclusive chat about life after the Dales and season two of their podcast, Celebrity Side Hustles. In their new series, Matthew and Roxy ask their soap-star pals about their work off-screen – involving everything from charity work to making gin! We also get the goss about Leyla’s funeral, and if we’ll see David…

Casualty’s latest villain Russell Whitelaw has ruffled a few feathers in Holby, but it isn’t the first time TV favourite Robert Bathurst has donned a stethoscope for an acting role. “I played a medic on stage, and someone in the audience collapsed,” Robert recalls, as he joins us for an exclusive chat. “We had to stop the show, and one of the cast members pointed to me and said, ‘Is there a real doctor in the house?’ I thought that was rather good.” Following Rida’s harrowing sexual assault in the operating theatre, she aimed to bring Russell down by making public an online group about the inappropriate behaviour of surgeons – but this week, Russell discovers the truth. As his mask starts to slip, Robert tells us what to expect…

When did you find out John had killed Nate? I filmed that scene in my fourth week of being here nearly a year ago. When I got the script I couldn’t believe it! They explained it was a flashback and how it would all play out. Was it hard to keep the secret? Very hard, I had to constantly check myself in interviews! The fact the audience know before anyone else in the village is cool because they are on the journey with John, it’s more interesting and there’s a lot of devices used around that. Why hasn’t John just done a runner? He genuinely wants to marry Aaron. There’s also the family unit with Victoria and Harry – he’s never had that before, so he has a lot of…

Sarah breaks down in Jacob’s arms this week, after she is diagnosed with having the early stages of cervical cancer. Once Sarah hears that her biopsy results are ready, she feels concerned about what might be waiting for her. Bravely, the mechanic attends Hotten General on her own, but is devastated to hear the terrible news that follows. “The consultant explains that she has cervical cancer,” our village spy reveals. “Luckily, the doctors have caught it in its early stages, but the diagnosis is still terrifying beyond belief. Sarah is only 19 years old, and she had hopes of becoming pregnant soon. It’s an unimaginable situation to deal with, particularly at such a young age.” In the consultant’s room, however, Sarah is gifted a glimmer of hope when the medic…

Despite the revelation that Dawn pushed Joe coming as a shock to many, this isn’t her first rodeo. “She’s murdered someone before!” Dales star Olivia Bromley reminds us. “She killed Malone, but that was in self-defence. She’s not actually a vindictive person – that’s what’s interesting with her getting together with someone like Joe, who really does have that evil streak in him. “So many people are out for Joe, and Dawn’s been the only one in the village who’s actually seen something in this man that she just loves,” she adds. “She’s fallen for him so hard – and I think the love is genuinely there.” But with Billy in on the secret that she bumped off Malone, and now knowing that she pushed Joe, could he dob her…

MURDER! In 2005, Kevin’s mate and fellow mechanic Tommy Harris was murdered in his overalls with his own tools – and by his own daughter! Katy whacked him over the head with a lethal wrench, killing him instantly, after he cruelly sabotaged her relationship with Martin Platt. ARSON! Evil Pat Phelan blackmailed his victim Andy Carver into setting fire to the garage, wanting enemy Kevin’s CCTV evidence destroyed. Luckily no one was hurt in the blaze but, when the fire was investigated, suspicion fell on Kevin… VANDALISM! Mechanic Luke Britton was arrested after he fought back against two racist thugs, but it backfired when afterwards, he and girlfriend Alya saw masked men vandalise the garage and almost mow them down in the Street! Kevin was left with a serious threat…

Jane is devastated this week, when she learns that her missing mum Amanda’s been found dead. Was her death an innocent fall, or did Darcy push her? With Amanda’s mental state worse than ever, Darcy lures her to the Dandenongs after a huge row with her loved ones, ready to carry out his plan. When Amanda slips into a confused state, will conflicted Darcy take pity on Amanda, or cover his tracks? Meanwhile, Jane worries over her mum’s disappearance and calls the cops, but when Andrew arrives, his grave expression delivers the news she feared: Amanda is dead. Darcy masks his guilt as he asks after Amanda, relieved when the police reveal that her demise was an accident. But Karl is increasingly suspicious……

Brave and bold I was in floods of tears watching the episode of Hollyoaks where Ro rang the helpline instead of taking his life. That note on the door was gut-wrenching, and as a mum I can imagine how awful that would be. Good on Hollyoaks for making their stories this brave and honest! Chelsea, Southend VIVA THE DIVA I can’t think of a better decision in soap than putting Glenda in charge of The Rovers. I’ve been in absolute stitches watching her incessant karaoke! And those pink branded t-shirts were hideous to look at but oh-so funny. Corrie has been sitting on the brilliant Jodie Prenger for far too long. I’m so glad she’s finally getting the chance to shine – please keep her in charge forever! Becca, Norwich Not…

‘‘I FELT LIKE THE NEW KID AT SCHOOL!”’’ Way back in 2016, when Inside Soap chatted with Ryan Thomas about his imminent Corrie departure, the actor revealed that he cried real tears while rehearsing Jason’s final farewell with on-screen mum, Eileen. So when we heard that Ryan had decided to reprise his role as Jason for Eileen’s exit story, we couldn’t wait to hear all about the poignant reunion set to take place – both on and off screen. And as Ryan chats about Jason’s return this week, it’s clear that the emotions came flooding back from the moment that he was asked to play Jason again… “It was a mix of nostalgia and gratitude for what Coronation Street has done for me,” reveals the actor. “When they told me…

As Emma’s killer, it’s only right that Moira feels the most panicked about Lewis’ discovery. But that’s not to say that Ross isn’t also hit hard by the dark memories being yanked to the surface… “It was Ross who dragged Emma Barton up to the viaduct,” recalls Mike Parr, who plays him. “He wanted her to throw herself off the bridge, so he left her, then Moira went up there. It’s only Moira and Ross who have the answers, so it’s a stressful period for them both…”…

With a wardrobe as fashionable as Leyla’s, no wonder Roxy wanted to take a few items home with her. But after 16 years playing the glamorous businesswoman, it’s been a real culture-shock for the actress to put away the high heels and go back to her normal clothes! “I mainly took coats and heels from set,” she grins. “What I realised once I got them home is that I was never going to wear any of it! I actually miss Leyla’s wardrobe because in real life I like to feel comfortable. “You’d never see Leyla in trainers unless there was a tragedy,” Roxy adds. “It was always a six-inch heel and a brightly coloured, structured jacket. I’ve just auctioned one of Leyla’s jackets for charity.”…

This hilarious and heart-warming new murder mystery series stars award-winning actor Timothy Spall and Lost Boys And Fairies’ Gwyneth Keyworth as an unlikely crime-solving duo. Set in Wales, the six-parter follows eccentric retired actor John Chapel – one-time star of hit detective TV show ‘Caesar’ – and doggedly determined DS Janie Mallowan, as they find themselves thrown together following the murder of one of John’s neighbours in the quiet village where he’s been living as a recluse since his heyday. But after Janie knocks on his door as part of her enquiries – only to recognise and immediately fangirl the former fictional detective – the odd couple end up joining forces to solve all manner of murders. Here, Timothy and Gwyneth tell Inside TV what to expect… Hi, both! Please…

Following her BAFTA-winning film Finding My Secret Family, former Paralympian Ellie Simmonds’ new documentary explores the difficult decisions that expectant parents face when they’re told their child may be born with a disability… “Being 30, a lot of my friends are starting to have children – although I’m not ready yet,” admits Ellie. “The documentary looks at if there has been any change from what my birth mum was told 30 years ago when she found out that I had a disability – and I’m looking at the support for those who might be in that position.” Ellie learns about choices in prenatal testing and their implications, and meets parents such as Rosie and Lloyd, who discovered at a 28-week scan that their son had dwarfism. “With all the couples…
