Inside Soap UK5 - 2018的目錄

Secrets, eh? Why do people in soap bother? If I lived in soapland (and sometimes it feels as if I do!), I’d be confessing everything to everyone on a daily basis. I’d rather that than keeping a lid on my sins and waiting for it all to be exposed in the pub to 15 of my best pals and 10 random extras. I mean, Laurel and Bob have been nervous wrecks since their secret bonk – and the stress levels only rise in the Dales this week, as Harriet spots the pair getting cosy. Just fess up and get through it! Meanwhile in Corrie, there’s more trouble for Rana following her affair confession to Zeedan last week. Had she told him all that time ago, this would be old news…

The moment that Robert and Aaron fans have been waiting for is almost upon us, with a big episode scheduled to air for the star-crossed lovers this 14 February. “Valentine’s Day is coming up, which is traditionally a time for falling in love or revisiting old loves – and that is definitely what is going to happen for Robert and Aaron,” teases Dales boss Iain MacLeod. “We’re going to explore all their old feelings which are not far from the surface – and Aaron will have a really big decision to make about where his future lies. But the question is: will it be one that he is happy with?” Whatever the answer to that conundrum, we’re hurtling towards the hugely anticipated Robron wedding that has been promised. “We’ve been…

Street rivals Carla Connor and Tracy Barlow have never shared much common ground – apart from occasionally sleeping with the same men and trying to kill each other! But long-time Corrie viewers may remember that Tracy underwent a kidney transplant back in 1995 after taking an Ecstasy pill in a nightclub and collapsing. Her then-stepdad Samir Rachid was found to be a match and agreed to donate one of his kidneys – and when he then died following a shocking racist attack, Tracy’s mum Deirdre gave permission for her late husband’s kidney to be donated to save her troublesome daughter. So, before we know it, Tracy could be handing out words of wisdom to recovering Carla as the pair compare surgical scars at the Bistro. Or maybe not……

Chelsee has been busy playing a new role off screen – as mum to daughter, Coco, whom she and boyfriend Jack Malloy welcomed last July. And she tells us that she’s loving life as a working mother… How are you coping with having to juggle motherhood and work? It’s a huge change being a mum. Getting both me and the baby ready to leave home on time is like a military operation! But I wouldn’t change it for the world. Coco’s just a dream and like my best friend. Although there are now lots of dirty nappies for me to deal with! Were you nervous about coming back? Yes, the thought of leaving Coco was scary. But being at home with a baby is a job in itself, so weirdly…

Tyler gets another sinister warning from jailbird Mr Banks this week – when the crim sends his henchman to poison Piper’s cat! Banks has made it very clear that Tyler must do everything asked of him if he expects a hassle-free life on the inside. But Tyler just wants to make the most of his last few weeks of freedom, and is enjoying a romantic getaway with Piper. While he’s away, Banks’ sidekick Snyder rocks up at the garage and frightens the living daylights out of young mechanic Ben! But things get worse when Ben and Xanthe arrive home to find Piper’s cat Clementine lying motionless in the street – with the poor puss frothing at the mouth… It’s clear from the malicious message tucked into Clem’s collar exactly who…

Olivia is wracked with guilt this week, in the wake of her colleague Axel making a move on her – but will she come clean to boyfriend Hunter? “Telling Hunter about the kiss may ruffle more feathers than necessary – once he knows, it’s real,” explains Raechelle Banno, who plays Liv. “She and Axel obviously have chemistry, but Liv is trying to work out if it’s just creative chemistry or more romantic.” While Liv is locking lips with Axel, she has no idea that her boyfriend plans to propose! But after she invites Hunter to her fashion showcase, it becomes painfully clear that they’re moving in different circles. “Olivia is whisked away to meet new clients, leaving Hunter and Mason to fend for themselves,” says Raechelle. “When Hunter later mocks…

New F1 doctor Bea Kinsella arrives in the ED this week, and she couldn’t have picked a worse day to start her new job! With the hospital at full capacity, the patients are backing up – but the trainee medic is raring to go, and delighted to get to work on a tricky resus case. However, when her patient’s daughter overhears Bea bragging to Rash about how gruesome the procedure was, the new doc lands herself in hot water! With a complaint hanging over her on her first day, is Bea’s career in ED medicine already over?…

ANNA’S SENT DOWN! The Street has a long and rich history of sending innocent women to prison. But surely none have been more cruelly wronged than Anna Windass, caught in a trap laid by evil Phelan… Coronation Street managed a new low with the outcome of Anna’s trial. So now we have a rape victim being sent to jail by her rapist? Are we supposed to find Phelan’s behaviour entertaining? Michael, Norwich I love Phelan so much. I think I could watch him in Corrie forever – but I’m developing a nagging feeling that he should have been caught by the police long ago. After all, so many people have made accusations about him, and many of them have since died and/or disappeared! Surely the police would be suspicious? Eleanor…

“Billy is a character the audience want to shout at through their TVs!” “Billy’s a bit of a prat, but he’s not really a bad man!” chuckles actor Perry Fenwick, as he joins Inside Soap on the phone from the comfort of his Walford dressing room. “He’s a kind of Del Boy – the sort of character that’s trying to better himself, but just can’t seem to stay out of trouble!” Yes, Billy is a first-class plonker – but he is also a part of the EastEnders furniture that we can’t imagine being without. And the feeling is mutual for Perry, who is set to mark two decades with the soap later this year… What a wonderful career with EastEnders , Perry!…

LACEY TURNER She may not have bagged herself a prize this time, but Lacey (Walford’s Stacey) comes up trumps in the style stakes with her pretty pink floral dress. EDEN TAYLORDRAPER & ELIZABETH ESTENSEN Dales ladies Eden (Belle) and Elizabeth (Diane) look elegant in very different designs. With Eden nailing the lacy look, Elizabeth adds extra glamour with a little faux fur. KELLIE BRIGHT Rocking pink just like her character, EastEnders star Kellie (Linda) looks a vision in velvet with her soft tone co-ords, delicate curls and subtle make-up. SAIR KHAN Wondrous in white, Corrie’s Sair (Alya) strikes a pose with her caped crusader gown and daring thigh-high split. TILLY KEEPER Albert Square actress Tilly (Louise) looks ravishing in red with this fiery frock – and you have to love…

SOMETIMES LESS IS MORE, and this delightful series demonstrates that perfectly. Dick Strawbridge and an army of volunteer enthusiasts are trying to build the longest model railway in the world, running from Fort William to Inverness. It’s a route that doesn’t currently have a life-size train line, and as the task progresses they’re starting to understand why that is. They’re behind schedule, facing inclement weather and generally at breaking point – but there’s a real triumph of human spirit and ingenuity shining through it all, which is giving us a lovely warm feeling on these winter evenings.…

CORRIE Life strife! A SERIES OF SHOCKS LEAVES MICHELLE IN DISBELIEF… Michelle has had enough drama in the past year alone to last her a lifetime – but sadly for her, there’s even more trouble in store. Next week, her past and present collide as she’s confronted by a familiar face – before she’s forced to consider how she wants to spend her future. Can Michelle deal with these latest issues and keep her sanity intact? EMMERDALE Shifting Sandy! Cupid is working overtime in the Dales next week, as golden oldie Sandy meets Maisie. And when she presents him with a surprising offer, Sandy is given food for thought… EASTENDERS Funeral fracas! Albert Square gathers to say goodbye to dearly departed Abi next week, but the Brannings are struggling. Will…

MURDER! Steve arrived in 1998, after buying the nightclub he relaunched as E20. He bludgeoned his ex-lover Saskia Duncan to death when she tried to strangle him – and then allowed his lackey Matthew Rose to be sent down for the crime. ADDICTION! When Matthew’s conviction was quashed in 2000, he terrified Steve with a drastic revenge plot – tying him up and threatening to set him alight. The shock of this attack sparked a drug addiction, which Steve struggled to shake off. KIDNAP! Steve married Mel in 2001, the day after discovering she’d slept with Phil. As a result, he was the prime suspect in the infamous ‘Who Shot Phil?’ investigation. But when Phil set up Dan Sullivan for the crime, Dan kidnapped Mel in vengeance. REVENGE! Dan took…

Corrie is set to revive one of its most iconic characters – by bringing serial murderer Richard Hillman back from the dead! But don’t fret, he isn’t about to emerge from his watery grave in the Weatherfield canal – Hillman will return via the powers of a psychic medium, Rosemary, who turns up on the cobbles and informs Gail that she has a message from her ex-husband… “Imagine the look of horror on Gail’s face when she learns that ‘Tricky Dicky’ wants to have a word,” grins our Street insider. “She has long laid his ghost to rest, so the thought of battling those demons again is her worst nightmare!” The drama will unfold after Rosemary turns up at Audrey’s salon and convinces her that she has made…

“I was at university the last time I wore fancy dress. I went as a fish riding a bicycle.” “Tracy is my future, Priya!” “Did you take a lot of drugs at uni, then?” Gemma has precisely zero time for Toyah’s feminist metaphorical social commentary. “You know – you would have done a better job of that by not sleeping with Leyla.” All right, Priya. It wasn’t so long ago that you were busily mounting Leyla’s fiancé. “So, we’re off to the Red Rec, then we’ll have a brew, a KitKat or Whole Nut depending on mood – and then we’ll do a couple of laps and finish off with a 99. It’s a tough regime, but no pain, no gain… And it gives me a little buzz when I…

“I think it’s long past time that Liz McDonald had a new love interest – and I’ve got the perfect casting: Adrian Dunbar from Line Of Duty . Liz likes a bit of Irish charm! Perhaps he could play her ex-husband Jim’s brother!” …suggests reader Alyssa from London “With Izzy returning to Neighbours , it reminds me that there’s one super-bitch who needs to come back – Flick Scully. She’d really give Ramsay Street a good shake-up!” …reckons reader Nick from Hull “I don’t believe for one second that Ben Mitchell has left EastEnders with such a lame exit. I bet it’s all a con like when Corrie made us think that Andy had died. Ben…

Devastated Sally has to make a big choice this week: will she leave the Street with Tim and Faye? The terrified dad is taking his daughter away, fearing that she could become killer Phelan’s next victim if they stay in Weatherfield. Sally understands why her husband is making the huge decision, but it means leaving everything they have – and she’s not ready to do that. Given her reluctance, Tim has made arrangements to go alone with Faye and stay with his dad. Can Sally really see off the man she loves, though? It’s a terrible situation for traumatised Sal, who has her own daughters to think of, plus her role as mayor. But choosing her political ambitions over her family is something not even Sally would do, and she’s…

Emma has to be rescued by Ayesha this week – when she inadvertently ends up high on cannabis. The drama unfolds after Emma calls in to see patient Louise, who has passed out in a smoke-filled room following a party. While Emma sets about attempting to revive her patient, she has no idea that she’s inhaling smoke from Louise’s marijuana – and when she calls into the surgery, Karen realises something is wrong. Karen needs Ayesha’s help with Emma – but given the women are still at loggerheads, how will Ayesha feel about it?…

The big question viewers want answered is whether star-crossed lovers Daniel and Sinead can ever get their romance back on track. So does Rob reckon that there’s still hope, and would he like to see the pair live happily ever after? “Is Sinead the love of Daniel’s life? I would like to say yes as everyone is rooting for them,” admits the actor. “But I think Ken’s prophecy is right and time will end up showing the differences between them – that maybe they’re not as perfectly suited as they think they are. “I do believe that they are meant to be together, though it could be a repeat of Ken and Deirdre.”…

They’re both relative newcomers to the Street and are often joined at the hip off screen, so this had led to some problems for Corrie’s Julia Goulding (Shona) and Nicola Thorp (Nicola) – who have revealed that they’re often mistaken for each other by the press. So having some fun with the situation, the brunette beauties set a test when they both arrived at the NTAs in plunging frocks and lush updos. But for anyone confused, they took to Twitter the next morning to clarify just exactly who is who!…

Fans of Endeavour who’ve been used to getting a new series in early January for the past two years might be wondering why it’s taken a bit longer for series five to hit our screens, and there’s a very good explanation: they had more films to make. The series’ usual four-part run has been extended to six episodes this year, and as Inside TV catches up with star Shaun Evans, he tells us that having two more episodes was a blessing and a challenge… “We’re working all the time!” he admits. “Filming for 20 weeks is manageable, whereas 30 is a lot – it’s a massive part of your year. But how often do you get to do what you’re passionate about on a daily basis?…

The first series of Jamestown followed three women travelling to an American colony in 1619 to marry men most of them had never met. Now, Alice, Jocelyn and Verity have established themselves in the town – but a shocking event is about to remind them that they can never take their position for granted… “From the point of view of a woman in Jamestown, that landscape is incredibly dangerous,” points out Naomi Battrick, who plays Jocelyn. “There is always going to be a fight going on – especially for somebody like Jocelyn, who goes out looking for it! But most of the time she gets away with it because she’s so brilliant.” Alice, meanwhile, is heavily pregnant, and goes into labour prematurely after falling down a…

A MOVING STORY Martin Clunes is set to star in new BBC1 comedy Warren. He’ll play Warren Thompson, who moves to Preston with his wife when her father becomes ill – but the move leaves him well out of his comfort zone and struggling with his new job… TWO’S COMPANY Love Island’s Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood are getting their own series on ITVBe. Chris & Olivia: Crackin’ On will follow the pair’s eventful relationship as they approach their six-month anniversary, move in together – and read all the headlines about themselves… OPEN HOUSE A TV company is looking for people aged 70+ who live alone, and young adults aged 18+ for a pilot programme where pensioners let out spare rooms for 2-3 days to young people.

BULLSEYE! We can’t get enough of the Dingles vs Joe Tate in Emmerdale . The danger and mystery of who will next find themselves on the wrong end of a shotgun or wrecking ball – combined with the sense that arch-enemies Debbie and Joe are still madly in lust – make this the plot we tune in for. Kudos to whoever thought up the Tate Revival – long may it continue! Todd Status Report! According to Summer, he’s “hiding in the woods somewhere”. Eileen’s reaction to this hastily written exit plot speaks for the entire nation. We’d love it if ‘ The Hawk’ in Emmerdale was a regular character, like a sort of Yorkshire Batman. Every now and again he could swoop in on a Dales wrongdoer…

Emmerdale is the first UK soap to feature a story about an acid attack – and it’s a hot topic in the news at the moment. In London alone the number of assaults involving a corrosive substance has more than doubled since 2014, and Britain now has one of the highest recorded rates of acid attacks in the world. CRACKING DOWN It’s thought this is due to substances such as household bleach being widely available, while knives and guns are more restricted. This has prompted the proposal of laws prohibiting the sale of corrosive substances to under-18s, and imposing harsher sentences on anyone caught carrying acid as a weapon. IN THE NEWS A recent high-profile case involved Arthur Collins (pictured), the former boyfriend of TOWIE’s Ferne McCann. He…

We nearly did a double take when Abi Branning’s Auntie Rainie popped up beside her niece’s deathbed – and news reaches us that we’ve not heard the last of her! Star Tanya Franks is reprising the role of Cora Cross’ troublesome daughter, and we’ll see her again in the spring. “It’s like I’ve never been away from EastEnders,” laughs the actress, who has played Rainie on and off since 2007. “I love working with everyone in the cast, and with John Yorke at the helm at the moment, the show is in good hands. I’m excited to explore the next chapter in Rainie’s journey.” Over the years, drug addict Rainie has caused no end of drama for her mum, sister Tanya and her extended family. She was part of an…

Mistaken identity Dales star Andrew Scarborough has rubbished theories that his character Graham is actually Graham Clark – the man who drove Joe Tate’s mum Rachel over that cliff. “There’s more than one Graham in Yorkshire!” he points out. Bye-bye Ben Ex-EastEnder Harry Reid has defended alter ego Ben’s hasty exit from Walford. “I thought it was great,” he says. “It was in Ben’s nature to deceive everyone and walk away.” Robbie returns? Oscar nominee Margot Robbie – who played Donna Freedman in Neighbours – reckons that she’d be up for a return to Ramsay Street. “We could get the whole gang back together,” she enthuses. “I’m in!”…

As Martin’s war with Stacey rages on, actor James Bye – who plays him – is enjoying the dramatic break-up scenes between the pair, even if some have come as a surprise… “Looking back over the recent scenes with Stacey, it was actually shocking because it was so violent,” he admits. “Martin’s been through so much, though. I don’t think he’s dealt with it the right way, but it’s shown that he has a backbone.” And Martin is certainly going to need that in the coming weeks. Stacey is currently out in the cold, while Martin is enjoying the support of his family. However, let s not forget that Stacey has reinforcements on the way, with the forthcoming arrival of mum Jean and her protective relative Kat! But James thinks…

Roo ends up in A&E this week, after her nephew Ryder steals Alf’s car – and accidentally hits her! The teen is upset after having a row with his mum Quinn, and jumps behind the wheel in fury. But he’s so angry that he doesn’t look where he’s going – and ploughs into his aunt. As Alf lets rip at his grandson for his irresponsible behaviour, Roo insists that she’s okay. However, when she collapses and has to be rushed to hospital, could her injuries be worse than she first thought?…

FAIR CITY Renee wants to go public with her engagement news this week – but thinks twice after talking to Farrah. Will Renee and Bob keep it a secret? Also, Farrah has other problems to deal with when the press hound her, and Nora and Robbie try to butter up Carol… RIVER CITY Maggie’s world falls apart this week, as her secret drinking is exposed – causing an almighty row between her and Caitlin. Will Maggie be able to rectify her mistake? Meanwhile, AJ finds himself torn between Farah and Ellie. Plus, wily Scarlett plans to deceive Bob and Kim. THE ARCHERS Toby prepares for fatherhood this week, with a pep talk from Nic and an aqua-fit class for Pip. And his next idea hinges on David’s agreement – will…

JUMPING FOR JOY Mandy from Hollyoaks always looks so stylish – there’s a jumpsuit in particular that she wears and I love it! It’s black, white and pink. Do you know where it’s from? Jo, London Mandy’s abstract print jumpsuit is from Lavish Alice – and it’s currently in the sale for £22.50 at www.lavishalice.com DOCTOR WHO? I’m sure I recognise the doctor treating Rebecca in Emmerdale, Doctor Melville – what else has she been in? And while we’re on the subject, do you know what happened to the lorry driver in that crash? Hannah Doctor Melville is played by Joy Brook, whom you may remember from her time as DC Kerry Holmes in The Bill . She also played Joanne Pearson in…

What is it like now that Louise Marwood (aka Chrissie) and John Bowe (who played Lawrence) have left the show? It’s a very strange feeling that they aren’t here any more – it’s really weird. We’re not even filming on the Home Farm set now, so everything has changed. On occasion I think, ‘I’ll message Louise to find out what she’s doing tonight…’, and then I remember that she’s not around! You were a close-knit team, so it’s no surprise that it’s taking time to get used to it… Very much so! John and Louise were here from the word go. I’d see them almost every day, so I miss them both terribly, and I think I will for a long time. They are such wonderful people, and wonderful actors…

“Myra has an epiphany about what she wants from life” If you rekindled an old flame 30 years later, you’d expect things to be a little different. But for Hollyoaks’ Myra McQueen, things have changed more than most. Her former love Iain, who fathered her son John Paul, has transitioned and is now named Sally – but recent months have proved the love between them is still very much there. So, this week she decides to finally take a chance on this new relationship with her best mate. It’s been a rocky road to romance for the pair, and as we join stars Nicole Barber-Lane and Annie Wallace – who play Myra and Sally – for a chat about their characters’ fledgling relationship, they reckon that…

Arthur & MARTIN A more sound geezer than Martin Fowler you could never meet, and the same was true of his dad Arthur. But while they’re both salt-of-the-earth types, Arthur would go to pieces in times of trouble and withdraw into himself – leading to his famous breakdown in 1986 – while Martin has more of his mum Pauline’s temper and often reacts with his fists. In fact, lamping a policeman during the gas explosion last year landed Martin in the nick – something dad and son have in common, as Arthur was banged up for stealing the Christmas Club money as a quick fix to his financial troubles. That didn’t end very well… Ken & DANIEL Bookish but passionate, ambitious but frustrated, nice hair but no sense – Daniel…

I watched Doctor Foster and oh my God, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! I got really angry with her at some points, but I was completely on her side. And I’ve just finished Stranger Things, which is absolutely brilliant – we’d all like to be like Eleven, wouldn’t we? Minus the nosebleeds. I love any comedy with Olivia Colman in it. Flowers is one of my favourites, and I think she was brilliant in Fleabag. Her character is horrible, but funny – sometimes selfishness like that is hilarious because it’s so true. We all know people like that – or we have those moments ourselves! My favourite film is Silver Linings Playbook . Jennifer Lawrence’s character Tiffany is so…

After Lucie Jones’ respectable 15th-place finish last year, the search is on again for a song that has what it takes to wow the juries and viewers at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon. The selection show comes live from the Brighton Dome, the site of Abba’s victory in 1974 – and so for a little Swedish twist, 2015 winner Måns Zelmerlöw will be co-hosting with Mel Giedroyc. Inside TV called up Måns to find out if there’s a potential winner among the hopefuls… Hi Måns! What do you make of the songs this year? I think they are really good. The dynamic of the show is going to be great, because all the songs are quite different. I really feel that we might have…
