’d like to offer a big thank you to the Inside Soap regulars – 1,025 of you in fact – who took part in our reader survey this year. It’s fascinating to see what you enjoy most about the mag (always the opening Scoop section, of course!) and what you’d like to see more or less of. Our first response is to tweak our TV guide this week, to include extra digital channels, with detailed listings for ITV2 and ITV3. And remember, we’re always thrilled to receive feedback on the magazine, so do drop me
a line with any ideas, or requests fo or features or interviews. This is s your magazine, and our only d desire is your pleasure! Speaking of desire – he c continues seamlessly – there’s a lot of it about this week; and most of it for Corrie’s gormless Tryone Dobbs. Clearly the smell of axle-grease and Swarfega is a powerful aphrodisiac. Now do excuse me while I pop to Halfords, won’t you? Gary Gillatt, Exec Editor editor@insidesoap.co.uk

eavily pregnant Linda suffers a terrifying ordeal this week, after two thugs storm the Vic with the intention of robbing the joint! As Mick’s petrified missus is grabbed by the brutes, will she and her unborn baby come to harm? “Linda is in the bar closing up when the thieves burst through the door,” explains

our Walford insider. “They don’t care that she is an expectant mum or a vulnerable woman on her own. All the men care about is leaving with what they came for.” The drama kicks off after the Vic hosts Whitney’s singing gig. Throughout the course of the evening, the locals dig deep into their
pockets, with the proceeds from the event due to go to charity. However, as a brimming cash bucket overflows with notes on top of the bar, two blokes secretly eye it up from across the room. Meanwhile, Whitney’s performance is such a hit with the regulars that, as closing time draws near, she and a group of supporters – including Mick – head to the night café to continue celebrating. Little do they know that the Vic’s would-be robbers are lying in wait, preparing to strike… “Linda is happy to lock up while Mick and the others head off,” explains our source. “She’s a fair way into her pregnancy now,
so she’d rather tidy up and head on straight to bed. There’s also absolutely no reason for Linda to feel unsafe in the bar at that time of night. She’s closed up a million times on her own before.” It’s as the landlady is happily going about her business that the thugs enter and grab her. What they Linda’s happy to lock up alone, but fail to realise, will she be okay? however, is that Nancy and Zack are upstairs and hear the commotion. As Nancy calls for help, Zack rushes downstairs to Linda’s rescue. But will he reach her before the attackers can do some serious damage? Laura-Jayne Tyler
A BUMP IN THE ROAD! Will Linda’s ordeal pave the way for her exit?
It’s no secret that Mick’s missus is due to leave our screens now that actress Kellie Bright, who plays Linda, has wrapped filming ahead of welcoming her third child. Yet the mystery remains: what will spark her departure from Walford? “The big plot twist, of course, is that Max Branning is actually the father of Linda’s baby, not Mick,”
our Square sneak reminds us. “The Carters have fibbed, claiming that Linda is not as far along in her pregnancy than she really is. However, as Max’s brother and resident detective, Jack, pops into the pub after the robbery with an update for Mick and Linda, will they struggle to keep their secret?”

Aaron is quick to point the finger after he overhears Liv and Gabby
Has Noah raped drunken Liv? TERRIFYING T ERRIFYIING FLASHBACKS FLASHBA ACKS SPARK SUSPICION…
T
he Dingles are torn apart this week, when Noah is accused of raping Liv while she was blackout drunk. Accusations fly after Liv wakes up from another binge and finds herself covered in bruises. At first, she can’t recall anything that happened during the drunken night, but later, she starts suffering disorientating flashbacks that
place Noah at the scene. So Gabby voices her suspicion that what happened was rape. “It’s a terrifying and traumatic experience for Liv to remember nothing but these flashes of violence,” shares our Emmerdale insider. “She can’t visualise what happened, just that she’s grappling with the figure in her flashbacks and realises it’s Noah. It’s Gabby who suggests that this could be as serious as rape – and Liv is sickened to think she might be right.” Prior to this, Liv had been fighting to stay sober with the support of fellow alcoholic Laurel. But the pressure of Aaron and Vinny’s
Charity can’t believe the accusations against her son
expectations sends Liv back to the bottle, and what begins as some beers with some new pals ends with her wasted. Fuelled by self-hatred, Liv is confused and upset about what happened, particularly when she sees her injuries.
It’s terrifying for Liv to remember nothing but flashes of violence”
a e’s Noah seems to have inherited the terrible traits of his parents… We’ve been wondering for years whether Noah Dingle could escape the curse of his parentage – but it looks as if he’s destined for a dark path. It seemed unthinkable that the son of Chris Tate and Charity Dingle could be anything other than a rotter, though instead Noah has often proved the moral compass for his wayward mother. However, now he stands accused of rape, just weeks after stealing pregnant Gabby’s underwear and stalking her. He also lashed out when she rejected him – so does Noah have a nasty streak, or was that a one-off outburst?
Liv has been seeking support from fellow alcoholic Laurel
As she and Gabby discuss what happened, Liv shares that she’s been having flashbacks involving Noah. Liv can’t be sure what happened, but Gabby is convinced that Noah has attacked her. Given his creepy behaviour around her lately, Gabby fears that the youngster could have forced himself on Liv. But as the girls are talking, Aaron walks in and hears. Soon, he’s charging off to confront Noah.
“This is a Dingle crisis – one of their own has been accused of attacking one of their own,” explains our spy. “Noah protests his innocence, but Aaron doesn’t want to know. As far as he’s concerned, Charity’s son belongs behind bars, and he won’t rest until Liv puts him there.” Back at their home, Liv is in torment as she tries to piece together what happened and is uneasy about Aaron’s pleas
for her to visit the police and report Noah. Meanwhile, Charity is determined to prove Noah’s innocence and goes hunting for information. As the desperate mum looks for evidence, Liv is trying to decide whether to report Noah. Is the lad heading for prison? Kate White n

AND THIS TIME, IT’S NOT OVER GARY WINDASS… his condition has been caused by the increased traffic in the area. And she takes all of her anger out on Sarah… “Maria’s fuming, and it becomes her mission to get rid of all the vehicles causing the heavy pollution on the Street!” declares Samia Longchambon, who plays her. “She decides that Sarah’s van is a pollutant, and needs to be off the road – she loses it, and smashes up the van! It was great fun to film; what other jobs are there where you get to let rip with a crowbar? Maria certainly doesn’t do things by halves!” Up until this point, Maria’s had little interest in her
neighbour Sally’s campaign to bring residents-only parking to the cobbles. But she quickly changes her mind after son Liam falls ill, and doctors reveal that it could be as a result of exhaust fumes. “Maria sees Liam gasping for air, struggling to breathe, and it’s terrifying,” admits Samia. “She knows he’s been a bit unwell, but she just thought it was a chest infection, so this really panics
her. Then the ambulance can’t get down the Street because of all the cars parked there, which makes it even scarier. “Liam is taken to hospital, and it turns out he’s had an asthma attack,” she continues. “The doctor says it could have been caused by pollution, and because there’s been an increase in traffic on the cobbles, Maria sees red. She’s definitely prepared to play the overprotective parent.”

Sarah has also been involved with Gary – and knows that he’s a killer! Bad boys Aidan Critchley and Callum Logan are among her exes, although she’s now married to lawyer Adam, who could get her out of any legal scrape!
…but Maria sees red
FIGHTER
Returning home, Maria decides that the factory’s van is responsible for a large amount of the exhaust fumes in the air, and takes Sarah to task. She wants her to take the van off the road, but Sarah refuses – which is when Maria lets rip! “It’s great to see feisty Maria back, we haven’t seen her for a while,” grins Samia. “And it’s lovely to work with Tina [O’Brien, who plays Sarah] again. I think Maria will always have half an eye on Sarah, but they’re also sort of like family with Maria having
worked alongside Audrey and David for so long. It’s a complex relationship.” As the police order her to apologise to Sarah and pay for the repairs to the Underworld van, Maria makes it clear that she’s far from happy, and vows to support Sally’s residents-only parking campaign in any way that she can. So is this just the beginning of Maria’s bitter crusade against Sarah, in a bid to clean up Weatherfield’s air pollution? Sarah Ellis

M
axine is left utterly horrified this week, when she wakes up in bed with her mum’s boyfriend, Fergus! Worse still, Maxine has absolutely no idea of how she got there or what happened between them. However, the evidence that they slept together appears to be compelling… “The night before, Maxine’s had an argument with Warren, and she’s stormed back to the flat,” explains Nikki Sanderson,

who plays her. “Fergus is there drinking, so Maxine decides to join in – she’s doing shots, drinking beer and cider, and she gets what you would call blackout drunk. In the morning she wakes up next to Fergus, and has no recollection of getting into bed with him.” Fergus is only too happy to fill in the blanks – and Maxine
feels sick to the stomach as it dawns on her that not only has she cheated on Warren, but she’s done it with the man who’s practically her stepdad! “Fergus tells Maxine that she came onto him, and that she was quite forward,” reveals Nikki. “It shocks Maxine to the core, but if that’s what Fergus is telling her, then it

must have happened. She’s ashamed, and devastated about what she’s done. She just can’t believe it.” Riddled with guilt, Maxine declares that she wants to tell her mum and Warren the truth as soon as possible! Yet Fergus is adamant that they have to keep their naughty night under wraps, prompting Maxine to make a shocking decision… “Maxine wants to be honest, but Fergus has other plans,” confirms Nikki. “He mentally manipulates her into not
Maxine’s rrelationships will always be more e tangled than most… This isn’t th he first time Maxine and Warren have trie ed to make a relationship work. And we e’re surprised that Maxine is even going there again; considering the comp plicated family tree that links them. “W Warren’s children are Maxine’s step p-grandchildren, because Sienna is M Maxine’s stepdaughter [through he er previous marriage to Patrick Blake],” points out Nikki. “That’ll be tricky to explain to the twins when th hey get older – ‘I’m your step-mum, b but also your step-gran!’ “Maxine genuinely believes tthere’s goodness in Warren,” s she adds. “She’s not stupid, she k knows he’s done bad things. But W Warren knows that he’s a better m man with Maxine by his side – which makes what she’s just d done even more devastating.”
Cheated Warren soon jumps to the wrong conclusion
coming clean – she actually believes what he is saying, and agrees to keep quiet. But the only other thing she can think of doing is ending her relationship with Warren. She just can’t live with the guilt. “Obviously Warren is not the type of man to take that lying down,” continues the actress. “So he jumps to his own conclusions – and thinks she’s cheated on him with Sami!” But as Maxine’s relationship with Warren lies in tatters, and she struggles with the guilt of having also betrayed her mum,
Trish, she has no idea that she’s actually just a pawn in Fergus’ sick game. “Fergus wants Maxine out of Warren’s life so he can have full control of Warren,” Nikki tells us. “Maxine doesn’t for one second believe that Fergus is manipulating her, she just thinks it’s a massive old mess that she’s got herself into yet again. She’s been manipulated by a man before, so if she realised that’s what Fergus was doing, it would devastate her. She’d go nuts!” Sarah Ellis lnsideSoap 11

Sarah’s unhealthy obsession!
SHE MEETS UP WITH HER HEART DONOR’S SISTER AGAIN…
S
ecretive Sarah appears to be developing a dangerous obsession with her heart donor Gemma this week, as she meets up with the dead girl’s sister again! It’s only natural that the teenager would be curious about the girl who saved her life; yet after she met
with Gemma’s sibling Chloe last week, Sarah was totally overwhelmed, and ran away in tears. However, when Chloe turns up in the village again, Sarah insists she’s ready to find out more. Dales newc newcomer Jessie Elland, wh ho plays Chloe, te ells us that Sarah’s not n the only one keep ping secrets… Noah watches N on as Sarah gets closer with Chloe
Why does Chloe turn up in the village to see Sarah? Chloe’s reason for turning up is twofold. On one hand, she feels guilty about how their last meeting ended and wants to make sure Sarah is okay. But she also needs to guarantee their meeting will be kept secret, as she is terrified that her dad might find out.
What does she make of Sarah as a person? Although she puts a lot of pressure on Sarah and isn’t pleased that she let Lydia find out about their meeting, Chloe genuinely likes and respects her. I think she warms to her so early on because she connects with the fact that Sarah, like her, is just a young
girl desperate for her own answers and reassurances – they’re both in the same boat in that sense.
What is she hoping to get from this new friendship? Chloe is very lonely, and has been since losing her sister; it has left a huge gap in her life that she’s hoping her friendship with Sarah will be able to make less raw.
What things does she tell Sarah about Gemma? Chloe gets the chance to show her some photos of Gemma and reveal what she was like as a person. She has taken a lot of comfort from meeting Sarah as it’s provided her with a chance

Meena stalks Victoria!
K …Sarah enjoys hearing about Gemma from her sister Chloe
to talk about Gemma, to share her memories. She’s also keen to get the reassurance that something positive came from Gemma’s death, that her gift isn’t being wasted.
Can you tell us a bit about the bracelet that Chloe gives to Sarah? Yes, the bracelet that Chloe gives Sarah is a tennis bracelet that Gemma was given for her 16th birthday. Chloe makes it clear that she wants Sarah to have something of Gemma’s, but she’s not so clear on whether her dad would
want the same, or if he knows she’s given it away.

So, keen to distract Martin from what’s really going on, Ruby betrays Jean… “Jean told Ruby about her cancer in confidence,” our Square spy reminds us. “At the time, she was pleading with Ruby to retract her statement against Stacey, and hoped that tugging on her heartstrings would do the trick. Yet Jean knows the true extent of Ruby’s evil plotting!” Ruby confessed the awful truth to Jean after giving her
a large amount of guilt money – and this week, Martin questions why all the cash from their account has disappeared. As Martin demands to know why Ruby has given all their savings to Jean, his wife panics – and blurts out Jean’s cancer secret. It’s clear that Martin is devastated, so when Ruby later tells him that she’s ovulating and tries to drag him to the bedroom, her hubby’s not in the mood. And later, Lily announces that Jean is coming home, leaving Ruby in no doubt that time is running out… Knowing that her lies are about to be exposed, Ruby suggests she and Martin get away for a few days – however, he’s far too worried about Jean to leave the Square now.

“Competing against Levi obviously fires Ned up a little bit,” laughs Ben Hall, who plays him. “But to be honest, Ned thinks he’s got it in the bag – he has a bit more of a wild side to him.

CASUALTY CARNAGE Casualty doesn’t do end-of-series episodes by half – and the medical drama rounded off its current season by killing off two favourites!

CORONATION STREET | ITV WEDNESDAY
“Aggie would have decked Lorna Laidlaw is thrilled to be back at Corrie after a year of shielding – and tells us what she hopes the future has in store for the Baileys…
W
hen Aggie Bailey returned to the world of nursing at the start of 2020, neither Corrie nor actress Lorna Laidlaw could have predicted what would happen next. A real-world pandemic written into the show would take both Lorna and Aggie away from the cobbles, with Ed’s missus isolating in a hotel while she worked on the hospital’s front line during the outbreak. Meanwhile, the true story behind Aggie’s absence was that Lorna was shielding in real life so that she could take care of her mum – and filming many of her scenes over video to keep Aggie in the scripts. However, the actress is thrilled to finally be back filming properly on the cobbles, and feeling as though she’s never been away – especially with Aggie and Grace set to go to war again this week…
Hello, Lorna! The last time we chatted was in January 2020, which feels like forever ago! I know! It’s like the lost year, isn’t? Even now I get confused – the Baileys only started in 2019, and we didn’t even get to a year before the world ended. It still feels as if we’re a new family!
How does it feel to be back on the cobbles properly? It feels great, though I was pleased to dial into the Street via Aggie’s video calls! I was supposed to be in these scenes, but I was shielding
Fall from Grace: Blackmail is the name of the game for Grace… and Aggie is fuming
Were you following the Baileys as a viewer during your pause from filming?
Under pressure: Will Ed ever finish that house?
and protecting my mum, so I said to Corrie, “Why don’t we just do them over WhatsApp?” I did my own makeup and dressed my home to look like a hotel, as Aggie was meant to be isolating following her shifts at the hospital. Some days it was really hot, so I was wearing my nurse uniform on top of a pair of shorts and flip flops, as no one was going to see them. That’s how we roll, my friend!
Yes, and all the scripts were sent to me too. There was lots of stuff that didn’t happen that I wish had. I would have loved a call between Aggie and Ronnie, purely for the sexual tension that comes with a man phoning his brother’s wife…
Yes, let’s talk about Aggie and Ronnie’s past fling! What did you make of that? In my head I thought, ‘You dirty bitch’! [Roars with laughter] It wasn’t an infidelity, as Aggie and Ed weren’t together at the time – but still, it’s a big secret for her to have kept. I love Vinta [Morgan, who plays Ronnie]. CONTINUED OVER ↘ lnsideSoap 41
FROM PREVIOUS PAGE↘ We’d worked on Doctors together, and the man is smooth!
Do you think there’s still an underlying spark between them? Well, why else is he still hanging around? I’d love to see Ronnie try his luck with Aggie, just so that she can turn around and say, “It ain’t gonna happen, love, get lost”! Ronnie is the least of Aggie concerns this week, however, as she and Ed are forced to make a deal with the Devil. After Michael finally summons the courage to admit that he doesn’t see a future for him and Grace, Glory’s mum resorts to blackmailing Ed and Aggie: either they put her up in Weatherfield, or she’s going to disappear into the night with their grandchild! It’s a bitter pill for the pair to swallow, yet a sacrifice they could be willing to make…
Can you believe Grace has the nerve to try to blackmail Aggie? I think the only reason she gets away with it is because Aggie is a mother who loves her son and her granddaughter – otherwise Aggie would have decked Grace by now! It’s a ‘mummy’ thing with Aggie – that feeling of protecting your cubs and making sure that nothing harms them as best you can. I would absolutely do that for my two children, so I understand the depths that Aggie is willing to go to.
Hiding the truth: Ronnie and Aggie are keeping a big secret
Even if protecting her children means deceiving Michael? Well, she might not have a choice! Grace is so vindictive that she’d up and leave just to spite them if Michael finds out and kicks off. Aggie is straightforward enough to tell Grace what she thinks of her, yet she’s prepared to play the long game. I hope the Baileys can work together as a family to get rid of Grace and keep Glory around.
Would you agree that the Baileys have taken great strides as a group of characters? Yes, although there is still a way to go. It’s an organic thing; when we first started, we were in fear. We were in
one of the biggest soaps in the world, we were a new family – the first black family – and there was a lot of pressure on our little group. It took us a while to take deep breaths and look at how the Baileys work as a unit, and it’s really important now that we see glimmers of a loving family who care for each other.
What are you hoping for the Baileys going forward? A bit more laughter, as they’ve had a hard time recently. I’d also like for Ed to finish that house! It took a lockdown for the man to finally finish the flipping bannister. There’s a downstairs toilet that needs doing, too! Laura-Jayne Tyler

EMMERDALE | ITV MONDAY
DALES FAVOURITE SUSAN CO OOKSON O OKSON WARNS THAT WENDY’S EX IS ABOUT TO R
I
f you pondered how a woman as lovely as Wendy Posner could have a son as evil as rapist Lee, wonder no more – we’re about to meet his dad. From the moment Wendy’s ex-husband Russ sets foot in Emmerdale, it’s obvious that he’s bad to the bone. It doesn’t take long for Russ to start intimidating and terrifying his former spouse while playing Mr Nice Guy in front of everyone else. According to Dales star Susan Cookson, this is just the beginning of his reign of terror. “We all have skeletons in our closets, and Russ is Wendy’s,” shares the actress behind the rattled woman. “She’s filled with absolute horror and dread to see this man after so many years. Their marriage didn’t end well, and he was trouble back then. The fact he’s tracked her down on social media can only mean one thing – more trouble!” Without son Luke by her side, Wendy has to face Russ alone, and it’s a frightening situation. He’s there because his mum Agnes has died and left everything to Victoria’s son Harry, the Posner clan’s young heir. By cutting him out of her will, late Agnes has enraged Russ, and he’s determined to get what he considers to be his. “Wendy is completely intimidated by him – that was one of the characteristics of their marriage”, shares Susan. “They met at university, and Wendy was very naive, and he was exciting. Russ spent money on her, paid her lots of attention, and she was in with the wrong crowd. Their life was
built on ill-gotten gains, and Wendy had to know her place and keep quiet. Russ held the purse strings, and he was in control. But she had a moral compass and finally escaped.” All Wendy wants is to get rid of Russ as fast as possible, but that’s easier said than done. He wants the full £50,000, and while she’s trying to sort that out, he’s going to sniff around Victoria and Harry. His bully-boy Ex in the village e: tactics work, and Vic is Russ is back and he wants to ruin surprised to meet Russ, Wendy’s life yet decides to take him at face value. She does this because Wendy has no choice but to back Russ up. “The minute Russ claps eyes on his grandson n, there’s an ulterior motive,” warns Susan n. “Seeing Harry introd duced to someone she despises is terrifying, though Wendy W feels she has no choice. Vic has been put through so much beca ause of the other Posners, and now Wend dy is effectively putting her at risk again.” It’s a nightmare scenario for Wendy, who desperately tries to get the cassh together and get Russ gone. He’s to old her that Victoria and Harry will pa ay the price if she fails, and Wendy knows he means what he says. “It’s just so scary,” admits Susan n. “She does order Russ to stay away, but he’s got a hold over her that
She’s filled with horror to see him again after so long…

doesn’t make it easy. This nice-guy act is sucking in Victoria because she’s kind and trusting. Wendy soon discovers that Russ doesn’t just want the inheritance, he wants even more. There’s something much more serious going on, and it’s horrendous for Wendy to know the kind of crime he’s now involved in. It’s ramped up from when she knew him.” You’d hope that Wendy could confide in partner Bob, but Susan says her alter ego is too scared to open up. “She’s worried that Bob will see her as a different person!” she explains. “Wendy has worked so hard to build a good life, yet she fears that this would be the end for her and Bob. Because of what Russ knows about her, there’s nobody she can talk to. Wendy is on thin ice and terrified of losing everything!” Kate White

Susan is a big fan of the actor playing Wendy’s evil ex… It looks as though Wendy’s new life could be blown apart by her wicked ex – however, Susan is having lots of fun working with actor Rob Jarvis, who plays him. “Rob is absolutely phenomenal – from the moment I met him and ran scenes, I knew that it was going to be good,” she enthuses. “We’re friends for life now, and he’s dead easy to get on with.
“The writing shows the audience from the off he’s a baddie, so the viewers will be screaming at their TVs when he’s playing nice to everyone else. We went for a meal, and this couple came up, and I introduced them to Rob. I said I couldn’t say who he was playing, and they turned to him and said, ‘Are you playing someone seedy?’ They clocked him!”
Big mistake: Keegan acted in anger, but didn’t know what Tiff had been going through

HEARTED? EASTENDERS STAR MAISIE SMITH REVEALS ALL ON TIFFANY’S REACTION TO KEEGAN’S DEVASTATING BETRAYAL…
EASTENDERS | BBC1 MONDAY
I
t was such a bombshell when it happened in the show – I was shocked myself when I first found out, I couldn’t believe it!” gasps EastEnders star Maisie Smith, as we commiserate with her over her character Tiff being cheated on by hubby Keegan. “Her step-cousin has slept with her husband, and they all live in the same house; I don’t think anyone expected that! It must be quite a shock for Tiff for her to actually slap Keegan round the face…” The truth comes out in terrible fashion this week, as Vinny spills the beans to appalled Tiff (see p14), leaving her absolutely heartbroken about her hubby and Dotty’s betrayal. But while Tiff is at rock bottom, star Maisie tells us that having the opportunity to show her character’s feisty side has actually been a lot of fun…
What was it like filming this week’s scenes, Maisie? It’s been a while since Tiffany has been through anything like that, so it was quite exciting to get to show her flames! She’s had a tough go of it, especially in the past couple of years – but it’s been emotional, and not as much anger, so it was quite exciting to film those thrilling few scenes where she first finds out.
How has the audience reacted to Keegan cheating on Tiff ? I’ve spoken about it with Milly [Zero, who plays Dotty] and Zack [Morris, aka Keegan], and they were like, “oh no, we’re going to get so much hate!”. Especially since the audience get to see the story from Tiffany’s perspective as well. Keegan acted out of anger, but he was unaware of what Tiffany was actually going through; whereas the audience is completely aware of the pain that she’s had for the past few weeks. No lovers’ Tiff: She feels alone and betrayed after she finds out the truth
Frenemies: Dotty has always had a love-hate relationship with Tiff
You’ve said that Tiff may forgive Keegan in time, but can she ever forgive Dotty? That’s a different story. The TiffanyDotty relationship is an absolute roller coaster: they love each other and they hate each other. They live together, they’re sort of related – well most people are on the Square [laughs]! They’ve got to a point where they’ve created quite a nice friendship. I wouldn’t go as far as to say they are best friends, but I think they are at a nice point where they enjoy each other’s company. However, I don’t think she loves Dotty enough to forgive her for betraying her, so I think that’ll be a harder relationship to rekindle.
How was it filming the confrontation scenes with Zack where you had to slap him? It was sad! I love working with Zack, we’ve had a lot of ups and downs on the show, and we’ve built a great character relationship together. It’s a relationship that you kind of idolise and that you’d want for yourself. Two young people working together in a marriage is quite inspiring, so it’s a shame. We were both quite sad to see all that hard work just vanish so abruptly, we were both so shocked by it – but we still enjoyed it. We got to scream at each other which was quite fun [laughs].
How do you think Tiffany will deal with this going forward? It’s a learning curve. It shows that the things she thought were impossible could happen, so I definitely think that she could grow from this because she’s now on her own – she hasn’t got her mum, her husband’s obviously cheated and her best friend is his sister, so she’s sort of on her own now. It might be a nice moment for her to work on herself for a bit, and grow and develop.… Sarah Ellis
Vinny’s
PAIN! Tiff’s not the only one hurting…
It’s not just Tiffany who’s dealing with a broken heart this week – grieving Vinny is also devastated that the girl he’s in love with has slept with his mate! And Shiv Jalota, who plays him, reckons Vinny’s family should be prepared for him to go totally off the rails… “We have seen Vinny spiral out of control in the past, so yes, they should be worried!” he teases. “The Panesars are so broken up at the moment because of Jags’ death. Vinny is very sensitive, anything that may wound him or make him feel uncomfortable about Dotty can trigger him. He doesn’t have anyone to vent to properly, and I think he’s quite lonely.”
Kieran’s return has changed the family dynamics
HOME AND AWAY | Channel 5 MONDAY
I
t’s funny how the Stewarts are the heart of Summer Bay, yet the family is so fractured,” muses Georgie Parker, who plays Roo, as we discuss the reappearance of her on-screen brother, Kieran. “But still the Stewarts somehow manage to bring their family dynamic back together when they need to. So I really hope we’ve managed to portray a real brother and sister bond between Roo and Kieran…” Although he and Roo have managed to forge a sibling relationship, Kieran’s return has thrown the Stewart family into chaos – especially once Alf reveals he doesn’t want stepson Kieran living in Summer Bay house! “When Alf decides he doesn’t like someone, it takes a seismic shift to change his mind,” laughs Georgie. “Alf’s unforgiving, and he’ll just lay down his demands. But Kieran is too vulnerable for that, and he gets highly anxious. Imagine having an Alf in your life – every time something happens that scary, booming voice would sound. It’s hard!” Kieran’s so intimidated by Alf that he prepares to leave town! But luckily, Irene and Jas agree that Kieran can stay with Will Roo be reunited them until a time when with daughter Martha? Alf hopefully relents. “When the going gets tough, Irene’s always there for Roo – their friendship has endured a lot over the years,” says Georgie. “But actually, it’s an embarrassing situation for Martha – she

comes back to town and finds her son is being supported by other women. That’s not an ideal scenario for her.” The family may be in a messy situation already, but Georgie admits that she wants more Stewarts to return to the nest to cause drama! “Roo’s brother, Duncan, can come back,” explains Georgie. “But not Quinn – she’d want to take her son Ryder away, and I don’t want that! What would be brilliant is if Roo’s daughter came back to Summer Bay. It’s such a tragic lineage because Roo abandoned Martha in the same way Roo was abandoned by her own mother. Martha would have matured so much over the years and it’s all that dysfunctional stuff that makes for great drama.” Georgie has been on Home and Away for over 10 years now, and she tells us that the one thing she desperately wants for her alter ego is long-lasting romance! “Roo’s a middle-aged woman, and she’s had some intriguing relationships,” admits Georgie. “I always find it interesting trying to figure out why she chooses them. Someone I loved working with was Cameron [Daddo, who played Evan and Owen]. So if Roo was going to be in a relationship, I’d love for Cam to come back. He’s such a lovely human being – and I thought he had the right vibe, nature and mood. It’s time for Roo to settle down though, and branch out from there…” Alice Penwill

Would you be happy to see Sid find romance? This is Sid’s time to shine, and if it’s not time for love then he at least needs to get out there. Sid needs a confidence boost, and he deserves happiness. Sid was trapped in the far-right group, then county lines and with that he’s been isolated – he needs to get out there and make memories.
How have you found playing an amputee? It’s difficult – sometimes I forget that I’ve finished filming and limp around town! I just get used to doing it. The credit should go to the graphics team for making it look so realistic. My top Google question is: ‘Is Is Billy Price a real amputee?’ Alice Penwill

t feels as if we’ve known Ramsay Street’s resident doctor Clive Gibbons all our lives. But the world of actor Geoff is very different from his alter-ego’s…
“What was your first day on Neighbours like?”
the true glamour of showbusiness!
I remember it very clearly because I was in a gorilla suit at the time! It was a very hot day, and the suit was made of latex and fur – it’s the sweatiest I’ve ever been in my life. I’d just left drama school and took myself a little too seriously – so it was a valuable lesson. That was when I realised
“What’s been your strangest fan encounter?”
“What was your first day on set like?”

The old guard: Classic 80s characters were reunited
Clive has always been th he nice guy and triggered good reactions. He’s the guy that everyone’s mum or grandmother approved of. So most of the time, iff fans talk to me, they sa ay, “Can I have Jason Donovan’s autograph?” D I’v ve always understood the pecking order.
would have an alternative approach, wouldn’t he? But I think maybe David Tanaka might be the better one to go to – he would probably just cut to the chase and get the job done!
“We recently saw the death off Herbie, Clive’s plant. Do you have y your own equivalent at home?” No [laug ghs]! The truth is my wife is the green-ffingered one. She understands how plants live – I don’t, I’m a plantkiller! I can look after dogs, though. We hav ve a golden retriever called Maggiee and she’s wonderful. But she wak kes us up at about 6.30 every mornin ng, jumps up on the bed and says, “Good morning. Let’s go!” My wife and I push each other out of bed and say, “It’s yo our turn to walk her”.
“If you were in Erinsborough Hospital Hospital, wou would you rather be treated by Dr Clive or Dr Karl?”
“Aside e from Clive, who’s been your favourrite character to play?”
Ha! I’d love to be treated by Dr Clive, but I don’t necessarily think I’d get better, because we’d be bantering about everything except the medical condition. Karl would be interesting, because he
I’ve pla ayed lots of different characters over th he years. I wrote a show about a courtt case, and I played myself in that reasona ably well. And I performed in a stage sh how many years ago where
Best friends: Geoff spends his time walking dog Maggie
I played my own dog, various cars and trucks, and did all the sound effects effects. I enjoyed using as many perfo orming skills as I could: singing, dancing, mime – all sorts.
“What’s been your most embarrassing moment on set?”
Oh, there’s so many from over the years. I’m trying to think of Clive back in the day. Well, there was the unrequited love of his with Susan Cole and baby Sam. That would be interesting to see now because Sam would be in his early 30s. If they were brought back, it might complicate things for Jane, though, because Clive could rekindle his affection for Susan. Sam wasn’t Clive’s baby, but he did fall for Susan, and when she left he was heartbroken.
“What was the last TV series that you binge-watched?” It’s called Le Bureau, a French show about the intelligence service in France. I don’t speak a word of French, so I spent most of the show trying to understand one word in 10!
“What do you like to do in your spare time?” I’m on the local council, so a fair bit of my free time is involved in that. I have a motorbike as well and enjoy heading out on long-distance rides with my brothers. I like long
Kennedy treatment: Dr Karl would prefer an alternative approach
w walks on the beach – and I know that so ounds like a cliché! These days, I spend T a lot of my time wallking Maggie and shouting at her to come back.
“What’s been your most embarrassing moment on set?” I’ve had a few recently – and it has to be the nude scene. Or I suppose the semi-nude scene where Jane and Clive were discovered, to the horror
of Nicolette. I think the only thing we were wearing was a laundry basket! You know there’s a protocol in these scenes – that they call it a ‘closed set’ because of potential nudity? And you know what difference it makes? None at all! The crew are all there, looking and laughing and enjoying themselves!
“Who in the current cast would you like more scenes with?” Clive spends most of his time with Jane, Nicolette and Chloe at the moment. But I’d love to do more scenes with Paul. As I remember, those two clashed in the past. So that would be interesting, to see if history could repeat itself…

Caught in the act: Clive and Jane’s romance was discovered by Nicolette
In the beginning…
Nan and Dad
Kathleen Slater was the second child of Viv and Charlie, born on 15 January 1970. She had a strained relationship with mum Viv, who died when Kat turned 30, but still shares a close bond with her maternal grandmother, ‘Big Mo’ Harris.
MEET THE STAR BEHIND THE SOAP ICON…
Family matters
Hard graft Kat’s never been afraid of work, and has turned her hand to many things. Aside from working the bar at the Queen Vic, Kat’s been a market trader and run a cleaning firm with her family. Now she’s the proud owner of Kat’s Cabs and the launderette alongside Phil.
A real grafter
The Slater sisters fought, but always had each other’s backs. Kat didn’t like Lynne being her mum’s favourite, despaired of snobby Belind da and d was cut off from Little Mo by her abusive husband, Trevor. However, the Slaters always closed rank if anyone tried to attack them.

Her ideal man?
Kat showed her vocal range when she told Zoe the truth about her parentage. “You ain’t my muvver,” screamed Zoe. “Yes, I am!” Kat yelled back. The horrific truth about 13-year-old Kat’s rape by Uncle Harry changed the family forever.
“Yes, I am!”

The leopard-print domination of Kat’s wardrobe must have been influenced by soap legend Bet Lynch. Forget about the East End, that range of big catinspired clobber was surely shipped directly from Julie Goodyear’s Street dressing room! 52 lnsideSoap

Capricorn Kat is the ultimate realist when it comes to blokes – but when she falls, she falls hard. Soulmate Alfie broke her heart, gambler Kush couldn’t be trusted, but now Kat’s on the arm of the h K King of Walford, Phil. T They’re an unlikely match, yet Kat’s romanc ced gangsters before – remember Andy Hu unter?

hroughout the 1990s, Ruby Wax was getting up close and personal with some of the biggest celebrities on the planet – Madonna, Pamela Anderson, Donald Trump, Carrie Fisher, Tom Hanks, Spice Girls, Sharon Stone, Liza Minnelli – to name just a few. Ruby’s fearless interviews rewrote the rulebook of celebrity documentary to provide a uniquely fascinating – and entertaining – insight into the lives of the uber-famous. Twenty-five years on, much has changed – for Ruby and the stars she met – but as she rediscovers her groundbreaking interviews for the first time since filming them in a new three-part series, the captivating revelations keep on coming…

“The women, I loved them – with Carrie Fisher, the interview started a 35-year friendship, and Goldie Hawn I know to this day – but Trump, and [disgraced US actor] Bill Cosby? They completely frightened me,” admits Ruby, joining Inside TV on the phone. “I thought Cosby was torturing me. And Donald Trump hated me. I was left feeling like a rodent in the headlights. But it makes for good TV!” More than two decades after Ruby’s horrific encounter with Trump (who was elected US president in 2016), his reputation is no less shocking
– while Bill Cosby has served time in prison. But Ruby never wavered in any of her interviews, no matter how uncomfortable… “It was my job – I’m not going to walk away,” insists the popular actress, writer, comedian and lecturer. “It’s not a pleasant experience – but it’s not about them liking you. I didn’t need OJ Simpson to like me, but he didn’t scare me either, he’s interesting. It’s about them understanding where you’re coming from, and if they don’t have a sense of humour, they won’t know. Even Pamela
Anderson, she got that I was teasing her as I do that when I like somebody – not because I’m being rude – so she’d do it right back. “With Tom Hanks, he’s not affected by fame at all,” adds Ruby. “He’s playing along, and it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen – what a great guy. There wasn’t a love affair with Madonna because she didn’t get what I was doing. But she’s so talented, so you forgive everything!” Since her revolutionary reportage ended, Ruby has become an expert in mental

In 2015, she was awarded an OBE for services to mental health – and reckons she’s left her crazy TV days behind. “I couldn’t do it all again because you’d never get that access – and I wouldn’t do it again because I’m interested in what I’m studying, I love doing these books,” she claims. “I was a girl who wasn’t popular in school, let out among Prom Queens, that’s what it felt like. I just had a chance to meet some extraordinary people – and I showed them a good time!” Allison Jones
What about favourite comedy shows? As well as Alan Partridge, Stath Lets Flats and This Country are recent favourites. My all-time favourite comedy is The Day Today – with Blackadder and Bottom in second and third places. What were your favourite shows growing up? I remember watching Blackadder and Only Fools And Horses with my family, and The Two Ronnies. Saturday nights were always exciting for an 80s kid – The A-Team, Blind Date, Casualty and Match Of The Day! Was there also a kids’ cartoon you particularly loved? I was into all the boisterous, flashy 80s cartoons like

Fantastically horrific fun and a terrific cast! Is there a particular TV personality who’s always inspired you? Cartoon heroes: There’s a few, but one ThunderCats was a firm fave in particular who I often think about is the late Rik Mayall. An incomparable talent – his energy is inspiring. He left a huge hole in the comedy world.

s Clive Myrie settles into Mastermind’s second-hottest hot seat – taking over from former host John Humphrys as the latest series starts this week – the experienced newsreader and journalist insists there was no way he was set to ‘pass’ when the question of joining the classic quiz show came…. “An opportunity like this comes along once in a lifetime – and I was really, really chuffed,” he grins. “The programme is such an iconic part of our popular culture, and the chance came at a point in my career where I hope I’ve earned the right to present it, with the things I’ve done and seen over the past 30 years.” Having worked as a news correspondent across the world – reporting on major stories including the wars in Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq, the Kathmandu earthquake and from Guantanamo Bay detention camp – Clive looks forward to adding a new specialist subject to his CV.

I like a laugh now and again!” Following in the footsteps of former Mastermind comperes Magnus Magnusson (who hosted the show for its first quarter century), Peter Snow, Clive Anderson and his immediate predecessor Mr Humphrys, Clive has a clear idea of what he’s hoping to achieve as those nervous contestants take a seat in that iconic black chair… “I want them to feel as comfortable as possible,” shares the Man City fan (who suggests he’d choose the US presidency, opera or his favourite footy team as his Magnus Magnusson hosted the quiz for specialist subject). its first 25 years “For the Mastermind contenders, this is their World Cup, their Olympics. The spotlight, the clock, the chair, the questions – they’re all intimidating enough. So I want to be a friendly face!” Allison Jones lnsideSoap 63

COASTAL DEVON & CORNWALL WITH MICHAEL PORTILLO Channel 5 8PM
PRIDE OF PLACE – OUR LIVES 7pm BBC1
Michael Portillo is the latest TV personality heading down to the UK’s south-western peninsula for an extensive exploration of Devon and Cornwall. First stop is
ones. That’s all in one day!” Dr Ranj is also confident that the series can help others in the same boat. “I’m really hoping there’ll be people at home who’ll recognise themselves – and that something can be done…”
North Devon, beneath England’s highest sea cliff, the 1000ft-tall Great Hangman – before ending up on Woolacombe beach. But as Michael tackles some very steep climbs and descents to take in the stunning views, can he catch his breath for kayaking at the village of Combe Martin?
Follow the LGBTQ+ committee planning the first rural Pride parade in Mid Ulster – Northern Ireland’s most conservative region. With help from a local reverend, the team overcomes opposition – and a pandemic – determined that the historical event will be able to go ahead.

DVD MY LIFE IS MURDER
Alexa Crowe is a retired cop, but her ex-boss is persistently asking her to help with cold cases, and a rookie police data-analyst is hassling Alexa to be her mentor – so her detective days may not be over just yet.

Starring Lucy Lawless.
