Abi’s revenge at Seb’s funeral!

Nina thinks Asha wants to get back with her ex Corey

AS EVIL COREY GATECRASHES THE WAKE, THE DISTRAUGHT MOTHER IS DETERMINED TO MAKE HIM PAY… CORONATION STREET | ITV TUESDAY

rieving mum Abi faces the worst day of her life this week, as she prepares to bury her murdered son Seb. It’s a sad and emotional time for all of Seb’s loved ones, knowing that he was beaten to death in a brutal hate-crime attack. Even worse is the fact that the person believed to be responsible for dishing out the fatal blow, evil teen Corey, is walking

free, with no evidence to prove that he’s the killer! All hells breaks loose then, when shameless Corey shows his face at the funeral, and furious Abi decides to take matters into her own hands. Yet what nobody knows is that plucky schoolgirl Asha has been secretly gathering evidence against her on-off boyfriend, and is close to getting the proof she needs to convict him of the crime… Asha hopes to entrap Corey and give the evidence to the police

“Asha knows she can’t play dirty, because this situation is already dirty enough,” explains Tanisha Gorey, who plays Asha. “She’s a smart girl and knows what she needs to do – she requires proper information if she’s to get

Corey arrested. But she also knows what’s right, and that she needs to go about this in the correct way.”

Stand by your man! Asha realises she has to do everything within her power

to get Corey onside, so that he’ll tell her what really happened on the night that Seb was attacked. But while she’s busy trying to get him to trust her again, to the outside world, it looks as though Asha has taken Corey’s side and is standing by the killer!

So, when Nina overhears Asha telling Corey that she would like them to get back together, she’s left devastated. Nina’s convinced that Corey was the one who murdered Seb – although she has no way to prove it – and is overcome by a wave of betrayal to think that Asha is seemingly siding with a cold-blooded killer.

Nina and Abi make their way to the ﬂat to see what Corey has to say

↘ FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Determined to stick to her plan, though, Asha defends Corey as furious Nina accuses him of killing her boyfriend… “Asha knows that Nina has a right to be angry with her,” Tanisha tells us. “But Asha obviously still has feelings for Nina, and she’s desperate to find something to win her back over, because she means so much to her. In her eyes, Nina was the love of her life, and that’s why she wants to be there for her now, and really wants to try to help. She knows that what Corey’s been saying just doesn’t add up, yet she needs to prove it.”

Unwanted guest Meanwhile, Abi’s heart is breaking while she prepares to lay her beloved son to rest. As the day of Seb’s final goodbye dawns, the grief-stricken mum is in pieces – and things get worse when Corey arrives at the wake, announcing that he’s there to pay his final respects! But after Abi hears him on the phone, laughing about Seb’s death, she vows to make Corey pay – and picks up a broken bottle… Little does she realise that her plan to hurt Corey could completely derail Asha’s secret plot to get to the truth! However, is Asha herself having second thoughts? 10 lnsideSoap

Asha drugs Corey as she just needs to find out something – anything – for the police!” “Asha’s so scared, but she needs to do this for Nina,” sighs Tanisha. “She’s worried, as we’ve already seen Corey lash out at Asha – I mean, he’s over six foot! It’s really intimidating for her, but the fact that they’ve lost Seb because of what’s happened is just too much. Asha has played a part in this by agreeing to lie for Corey, and she can’t just sit back and do nothing any more. She’s putting Nina’s feelings before her own right now.”

Hunting for the truth Luckily, Asha clocks what Abi is about to do, and manages to stop her before any damage

is done. The two share a heartto-heart, and Asha heads off to meet Corey, while Abi goes to score some drugs! Yet all is not as it seems… Having convinced Corey that she believes he’s innocent, Asha declares that she wants to sleep with him. But little does Corey realise that she’s slipped Abi’s drugs into his drink! “Asha drugs Corey as she just needs to find something – anything – that can convince the police he’s the killer,” reveals Tanisha. “Asha feels so guilty for what’s happened – she knows her actions can’t bring Seb back, but she has to do whatever she can to make this situation better.”

The hearse carrying Seb’s coffin arrives on the Street

GOOD GOTH! Will Nina reclaim her identity?

Abi begs Nina to come to Seb’s funeral this week – but can Nina dress as her authentic self? In the wake of Seb’s death, angry Abi took her grief out on Nina, citing her goth clothes as the reason that she and Seb were attacked in the ﬁrst place, and telling her that she wasn’t welcome at her son’s funeral. It was enough to make Nina turn her back on her unique style, and throw away all of her Victorian Goth clothes in favour of dressing just like everyone else. However, as the funeral approaches, Abi has a change of heart, and lets Nina know that she would like her to attend Seb’s goodbye. She also presents Nina with the binbag full of her old clothes, pointing out that Seb would want her to be there dressed as the woman he fell in love with. So will Nina realise that turning her back on her true self is equal to letting the bullies win? And will she say a ﬁnal farewell to the man she loved?

Whether Asha finds the evidence she needs remains to be seen – although soon, Abi and Nina arrive at the flat, desperate to find out if her plot has been successful. However, when drugged Corey groggily tries to barge his way past them, he loses his balance and falls down the stairs! And

Abi’s world has been turned upside down since she lost her son Seb

as he lies unconscious at the bottom, the trio of women have a big decision to make… “In that moment, Asha is consumed by hatred,” says Tanisha. “But at the same time, she’s just 16, and there’s a person lying unconscious in front of her – so she doesn’t know what to do! If she gets caught, or if someone sees what’s going on, she’s going to be in so much trouble. But it definitely goes through her mind to just leave him there…” So will Asha, Abi and Nina leave low-life Corey to die? Or will they call an ambulance, in the hope that Seb’s killer will finally face justice? Sarah Ellis lnsideSoap 11

Ryan realises that there’s more to Mack’s coat than a style statement

originally stole. So, when Pollard’s health takes a turn for the worse, Mack has a decision to make… “Initially Mack goes into shock – and then it quickly becomes a dilemma of whether he should call for an ambulance,” explains actor Lawrence Robb, who plays him. “If Mack leaves Pollard to his fate, it removes the

problem, as Pollard then can’t press charges against Aaron.” Prior to Pollard’s collapse, Mackenzie is on a mission to save Aaron by whatever tactic is necessary. After casing out Pollard’s barn, Mack spies a treasured coat that belonged to Pollard’s late wife, Val, and swipes it to use as leverage. “Mackenzie definitely feels guilty, as Aaron wouldn’t be in this position if Mack hadn’t stolen the brooch in the first place,” argues Lawrence. “Obviously, Mack is also upset and annoyed with Aaron for going back to Pollard’s house to return the brooch. If he hadn’t done that, they wouldn’t be in the position they’re in now. Though, hindsight is a wonderful thing, certainly in Emmerdale!”

Meanwhile, Mack’s new housemate Ryan cottons on to what he is planning, and threatens to inform Cain. However, undeterred Mack approaches Pollard with his deal: the return of Val’s coat, in exchange for Aaron’s freedom. Unsurprisingly, Pollard is left dumbstruck by Mack’s

icked Sharon’s web of lies is torn down by super-sleuth Jenny this week, leading to a gunshot ringing out across Coronation Street… The horrifying moment comes after Jenny pieces together all the evidence that proves Sharon is working on behalf of drugs-boss nephew Harvey. Determined to out Sharon and put an end to her conniving, Jenny places both herself and Rita in danger. So, when the shot is fired, viewers will be left wondering which cobbles resident has been gunned down… “This is Sharon’s last stand – there’s no way back for her

now,” warns our Weatherfield source. “Jenny has her bang to rights, and Rita now knows just what she’s capable of. Sharon might have felt bad doing it, but she put young Sam’s life in danger, and was willing to leave Leanne and Simon at the mercy of a gang of killers. It’s unforgivable stuff…” Surprisingly, it’s Ronnie who hands Jenny the key to cracking this case. She talks to him after discovering that Sharon hired the van involved in Sam’s kidnap, and Ronnie mentions he overheard Sharon quizzing Toyah about Leanne. Jenny already knew that Sharon was related to Harvey, but it’s not until she seeks out Imran that everything falls into place.

hil proves just how serious he is about his relationship with Kat this week, as he agrees to play dad to her kids at their school! But his pride soon takes a dent when he sees Jack with Raymond. Twins Bert and Ernie are upset that they have nobody

to take to their ‘bring your dad to school’ day, and innocently ask Phil if he will step in. It’s a pivotal moment in his romance with Kat as Phil considers the boys’ request; however, is a criminal really the best role model for the youngsters? “Family means everything to Phil, so deep down, he’s

thrilled that Bert and Ernie have asked him to do this,” reckons our Square spy. “The seriousness of his relationship with Kat has taken everyone by surprise, including Phil. But is he ready to leave his dodgy dealings behind him to be the man Kat wants and needs?” It’s no wonder Phil is keen to be there for Kat’s kids, given that his relationship with son Ben is at an all-time low. Ben and new husband Callum return from their honeymoon this week (see right), yet Phil is not at all pleased to see them. He’s still smarting from Ben marrying someone who betrayed their family – so Phil is clear that he wants nothing to do with them.

Kat tries to get him to see sense, and encourages Phil to make amends with Ben before it’s too late. She also thinks he should make more of an effort to be part of his son Raymond’s life, although Phil knows he has his work cut out persuading Denise that he’s worthy of being a dad to their son. In the meantime, Phil revels in the attention he’s getting from Bert and Ernie – but as he heads to the school with them, he’s stunned to see rival Jack there as Raymond’s ‘father’… “Seeing another man playing dad to his son is a slap in the face for Phil,” reveals our sneak. “Phil would love to be the one there by Raymond’s side, and

N Jack proudly steps in as Raymond’s dad at school - much to Phil’s chagrin!

ewlyweds Ben and Callum return to the Square this week – but there’s no time to bask in the glow of married bliss! Soon, Ben is reminded of the trouble Callum’s job has brought to their life when he spots his new hubby having a cosy conversation with one of his police colleagues, and instantly finds himself suspicious. Can Ben ever really trust Callum? Ben may have chosen Callum over his dad, yet turning his back on his criminal life is not easy. He’s barely back on the Square for five minutes when he’s approached by Kheerat, who wants Ben’s help. But Kheerat himself is hiding a big secret from Ben – the fact that he’s sleeping with Sharon! He knows that Ben and Sharon are sworn enemies, so if Ben finds out who Kheerat’s in bed with, their partnership will be over. For now, Ben’s oblivious – and far more preoccupied about what his new husband

Callum’s exchange with Fitzy causes Ben to get tetchy

Bernice vs Leyla: It’s war! WHICH WOMAN WILL WIN THE BATTLE FOR LIAM?

urious Leyla slaps Bernice across the face this week, after spotting her trying to muscle in on fiancé Liam! It all kicks off when Leyla spies Bernice and Liam in conversation, unaware that her love rival is actually returning the engagement ring her ex had given her. From where Leyla is standing, it looks as though Bernice is proposing to Liam, so she loses it! While she’s wrong about what Bernice is up to at that precise moment, she’s right about the recently returned woman’s intentions… “Leyla should be enjoying being the blushing bride and getting ready for the wedding

of her dreams,” shares our Dales spy. “Instead, she is being overshadowed by Bernice marching back into the village to spoil her plans. Leyla’s livid, and there’s no way that she’ll let Bernice take her man. This is war!” For the happy couple, the pressure is on as they try to arrange their big day after securing a date thanks to a cancellation. However, Liam is struggling, as Bernice’s return has really thrown him. Believing that he needs to take matters into his own hands, the pragmatic doctor seeks out his ex to lay down a few ground rules so they can live peacefully in the same village. And it’s during their chat that It’s not what it looks like! Bernice attempts to return Liam’s ring

Bernice pulls out her old engagement ring, so Leyla interrupts to dish out a slap! After the embarrassing incident, Bernice catches up with sister Nicola and mum Diane at the café, where she tells them her side of the

story. Convinced that Liam still loves her, and Leyla is just his rebound fling, the determined woman vows to win him back – and it doesn’t look as though she’ll take no for an answer. “Now that she’s been face to face with Liam, silly Bernice

It seems that there’s someone else who would like to see the back of Bernice this week – her own daughter, Gabby! She’s still refusing to have anything to do with her mother following the dramatic events of last week’s shooting at Home Farm. Gabby is mortiﬁed that Bernice is trying to ruin things with Kim, and has told her she wants nothing more to do with her. And Sam Giles, who plays Bernice, reckons that Gabby has every right to be furious… “From what I gather, as I didn’t keep up with the soaps during the lockdown, Gabby asked Bernice if she could come to Australia a few months ago, and Bernice said no,” muses Sam. “There must have been a rational reason for that, but there’s deﬁnitely some making up to do. Obviously, I had no control over what happened between Bernice and Gabby off screen!” Of course, Bernice is desperately sad that Gabby is keeping her at arm’s length – however, she vows to win her daughter round. Can she convince Gabby that it’s her, not Liam, who is her priority?

CORRIE TAKES A TRIP ACROSS THE ZUIDERZEE FOR THE GREATEST LOVE OLD… … STORY EVER TOLD

or a woman as seemin ngly meek and mouse-like as Hayley Patterson, it’s perhaps appropriate that we now find her living in n Old Amsterdam. Alas, not in a windmill, but a no-less clichéd canal boat – sadly short on stairs upon which to tip-tippetty-tap. It’s against this backdrop of barges and bicycles that Corrie’s epic romantic adventure unfolds. Could there be a more fitting location for Roy Cropper to find love? Quaintly respectable and cultured,

Pulled together by raw passion! Or perhaps static electricity and man-made ﬁbres

Roy was already beginning to regret whittling his own clogs

yet also tolerant and modern… and Amsterdam’s not too shabby either. Roy is nervous to be making his first trip overseas, so comes typically prepared with maps and some vital words of the language, likely including the Dutch for: “I’m looking for my friend from England, she’s here to

complete her genderreassignment surgery.” Luckily, the locals speak excellent English, or else he would have to fall back on: “Ze draagt een rode anorak.” Hayley is delighted to see Roy again, but as they tour the usual sights – the flower market, Anne Frank’s house, perhaps not the Red Light District – she grows frustrated that Roy can’t find the words, or perhaps the will, to express his true feelings for her.

Ultimately, however, actions prove to speak so much louder than words, as Hayley shows herself to be more lion than mouse – with the story ending in a fairy-tale dash to Schiphol airport, and a promise written in red lipstick. The Roy and Hayley story is a triumph of course – with two of soap’s all-time great actors showing just what they can do – and these episodes as much a Dutch masterpiece as any Rembrandt or Van Gogh.

THE NEW ME Well done to Mollie Gallagher, who plays Nina in Corrie. As the nation watched her wash away her dark make-up and change her look, I couldn’t help but feel her pain. I loved the vibe she brought to the show, and I really hope she hasn’t given up on who she is. Surely this isn’t the last we’ve seen of gothic Nina? | Linda, Cheshire Well, Linda, as you may have already read in this issue, you’ll be seeing the real Nina back soon…

JENNY’S FANCY MAN! We were all taken aback by Johnny’s sudden return to the Rovers in Corrie. However, no one was more shocked than his wife Jenny, who’s kicked off a secret affair with Ronnie! I loved it when Johnny waltzed through the door and said, “Admit it, you weren’t expecting this!” Talk about understatement of the century! If he’d walked in a minute later, I think it would have been Johnny facing the biggest surprise… | Molly, Stratford I’m looking forward to seeing more of Sally Ann Matthews [who plays Jenny]. In my

FAMILY TREE I might be missing the link between families, but could you please explain how Jamie and Noah are related in Emmerdale? | Gen, Newcastle Don’t worry, Gen, we know just how complex family history can be in the soaps.

EMMERDALE | ITV WEDNESDAY

“Mack knows Aaron fancies him – he enjoys the attention!”

Lawrence Robb joins us to talk about the mischief Mack’s been making in the Dales – and the buzz surrounding his chemistry with Aaron…

ove him or loathe him, the introduction of Moira’s brother Mackenzie has been a huge triumph for Emmerdale. In fact, we’ll go as far as to say he’s one of the best characters that bosses have cast in years! Why? Well, whip-smart Mack could have a scene with a shoe cupboard and still make it look thrilling, never mind the long list of fabulous village folk with whom he’s already crossed swords. However, there is one person in particular that Mack has sparked with more than any other, and that’s Aaron. Did bosses deliberately set out to create some of the most electric chemistry the Dales has ever seen, and are the pair heading for an all-time epic romance? Or is Mack simply playing Aaron like he does everyone else? Inside Soap puts all these questions to Emmerdale’s man of the moment, Lawrence Robb, as he joins us to unpick the many layers of Mackenzie…

Hi, Lawrence! Is Mack as much fun to play as you make it look? Oh my, absolutely! He just takes the mick out of everyone, doesn’t he? I wish I could do that as well myself, as eloquently as Mack does on screen!

the time, though, I’m just rolling with it and having fun!

What is the audience saying about him now? People have said, “I really hated Mack to begin with, but I’m actually warming to him now”. Although, I think that a lot of the viewers who are huge fans of Vanessa and Charity probably still hate Mack, but you can’t please everyone!

Bare necessities: We can’t fathom why Mackenzie has proved so popular

Often my brain works faster than my mouth does, and I wish I had as sharp a tongue as Mack has.

What do you make of Mack’s outrageous behaviour? Well, obviously Mack and Moira had a massive emotional breakthrough a couple of months ago, so when he’s up to no good and it concerns her, I’m like, “Oh come on, mate, do what you said you were going to do”! Most of

“Not a day goes by when Danny and I don’t make each other laugh…”

Now, we must ask about Mack and Aaron. Was it always the plan for the two characters to hit it off? I think it’s testament to mine and Danny’s [Miller, aka Aaron] relationship on set. Not a day goes by when we don’t make each other laugh, and I think that bleeds into filming. I don’t know what the writers had planned initially, and I’m maybe speaking out of turn, but I think when producers see energies on set, they go, “These guys work really well together, we’ll do more stuff”.

At Inside Soap we’ve nicknamed them ‘Macaroon’! We think they’d make an awesome couple. What’s your take on their relationship? The way I’ve been playing it thus far, is that Mack would flirt with a lamppost to get to the next point! I think Aaron does fancy Mack in an, ‘Oh I shouldn’t, but I do’, kind-of-way, and I think Mack knows that and enjoys the attention! CONTINUED OVER ↘ lnsideSoap 43

FROM PREVIOUS PAGE↘

What’s your understanding of Mack’s sexuality at this particular point in time?

It’s interesting, as Sam asked him recently, “Are you gay?”, and Mack said, “I can be whatever I want to be”, so he’s not really anything at the moment. I don’t think the writers are going down a route of Mack’s straight, bisexual or gay, as I think he’s just free. And I don’t think that Mack’s really interested in anything romantic as of yet. He’s just very ‘in-the-moment’ – like what happened with Charity.

Do you think Mack and Aaron would work as a proper couple, though? I do think they would work, although I also quite like the ‘will-they-won’t-they’ energy that is being played right now, as that’s where the real tension is. From what I’ve seen online, a lot of people have been saying that they hope Mack and Aaron will get together. I might be wrong, however I don’t think we’ll get the answer any time soon. I think it’ll be a case of ‘will-theywon’t-they’ for a while yet…

Village people: Lawrence has particularly enjoyed working with Natalie J Robb

Looking back on your time in the village so far, what has been your favourite Mack moment to play? My first day in the village will probably go down in history as one of the

weeks ago when Mack fell into the mud was fun. I was covered in the stuff for an entire day, and that’s something that would only happen in Emmerdale!

Have you had any funny incidents working with the animals on Moira’s farm yet? most remarkable things that I’ve experienced. I filmed Mack’s car crash with Charity, and due to Covid, I was doing all of my own stunt-driving, which was insane! Also, any of the big emotional scenes with Natalie [J Robb, who plays Moira] are amazing, and even the moment a couple of

What the future means for ‘Macaroon’ if Robert returns… Although we’re enjoying all the speculation over where the n Mack and ﬂirtation between Aaron might lead, we mustn’t ignore the fact that Aaron is already half of one of the ap couples of most popular soa former this generation. Aaron’s A husband, Robert Sugden, cut all contact with his soul mate after being jailed for killing rapist Lee Posner. However, has the soap justice system s in been known to move m

mysterious ways – so, what if Robert were to be freed, just as his beloved was embarking on a new romance? Robert’s arguably one of the best bad boys the village has ever seen, so how cool would it be if he and Mack took each other on in that sense? “I’ve heard that Ryan Hawley [who played Robert] is amazing to work with,” grins Lawrence. “So, absolutely, that would be a great little segue into something. It would depend entirely on the relationship between Aaron and Mack, and Aaron and Robert at the time, but I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing that happen!”

Charmer: Zack’s a big hit with the ladies – but will he ever settle down?

EASTENDERS | BBC1 THURSDAY

The Square’s EASTENDERS STAR JAMES FARRAR JOINS US FOR A CHAT ABOUT PLAYING WALFORD’S NEW HEARTTHROB…

unnily enough I haven’t played many romantic leads before,” reveals star James Farrar, aka Zack, as we catch up with him a few weeks on from his EastEnders debut. “I think I’m playing the heartthrob now, though! I feel as if I know Zack properly – he’s funny, he’s sweet, he’s vulnerable, but he also has flaws. He’s jumping from girl to girl, though he’s slowly getting to a point where he’s had enough of that, and wants to find love.” We’ve deﬁnitely detected a frisson between Zack and Nancy recently, so could she be the one to tame the ladykiller? James certainly 46 lnsideSoap

hopes so, and as we sit down for a chat about his ﬁrst few weeks on screen, he tells us that being on EastEnders has been way more fun than he ever dreamed it could be…

Hi, James! Last time we spoke to you, your character hadn’t yet been on screen. So what’s it been like since the viewers met Zack? I’m not getting recognised too much yet, but when I do, there has been an appreciation of the work, which is sweet. That’s come from both the cast and strangers, and it means a lot, because I’ve put a lot into Zack. I have to say, I didn’t think I’d enjoy it as much as this! It’s been four months of excitement and joy so far.

What do you make of Zack’s womanising ways? I think it’s an insecurity, he’s trying to ﬁll a hole that’s been left from his childhood, where he was unloved d and forgotten. He enjoys making love to women and making them feel special, but as soon as there’s any sort of commitment, he’s out of there, which means that he can’t hold down a relationship. Yet for him to achieve long-term happiness, it will take a girl that he falls head-over-heels in love with.

Could Nancy be that girl for him m? He was immediately drawn to Nan ncy – and it was not reciprocated! Tha at’s why he enjoys that relationship, it’s i

that tough love, and she sees right through him. That attracts him more than the girls who just look at him and swoon. There’s a good dynamic between Zack and Nancy, and a certain spark.

Sharon would be happy if he stopped bringing home so many girls… Yes, and Zack really wants to impress his sister. That’s not just because he wants a bed in her house, it’s because blood is important to him. He hasn’t had someone like that in his life, a family member who has cared for him in the way that Sharon does. She’s incredible.

How easy was it for you and Letitia Dean (aka Sharon) to create that sibling relationship? Oh, Tish is incredible. The relationship between us is so genuine – I’ve got her back, and she has mine. And I feel that shows on screen. Before I started on the show, I was told that I’m a lucky boy to be working with Tish every day, and God that is true!

Miss Right?: Zack likes Nancy, but is the feeling mutual?

I’m playing a lovable rogue now, and getting to explore light-heartedness and comedy. I get voice notes from them cracking up with laughter at my scenes!

There’s a certain spark between Zack and Nancy…

Do your real-life sisters like Zack? Prior to this, they’d only seen me in dramas, and I was always playing the bad boy. So they think it’s lovely that

Quite a lot of your scenes have involved you getting your top off! How’s that been?

I spent 10 years modelling underwear in between acting roles, so I’m quite comfortable with it! It creates a lot of laughter on set, and gets everyone out of their comfort zones – we all take it with a pinch of salt. They close the set for those scenes, and I’m always working with people I trust. We just cry with laughter the whole time! Sarah Ellis

Jean! Zack fo orms an unlikely new friendship…

Look of disapproval: Sharon’s non-plussed by Zack’s bedhopping

There’s a new woman in Zack’s life this week – his neighbour Jean! And James tells us that their touching friendship is set to show us a new side to his character… “Zack sees a neighbour in need,” James tells us. “Which I can relate to, as I’ve lived on a street in south London my whole life, and I’ve been my neighbours’ gardener and handyman, and gone to the shops for them during the Covid crisis. “There’s going to be a lovely relationship between

them where Zack helps Jean out – and he feels great helping her, because she’s such a lovely lady.” So what is it that brings this unlikely pair together? “They form a relationship over something that you would never guess,” teases James. “Gillian Wright [who plays Jean] is just so energetic, and brings every scene to life!”

HOLLYOAKS | Channel 4 BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY

“Diane’s really frightened – this is extreme behaviour...” HOLLYOAKS’ ALEX FLETCHER TELLS US HOW THRILLED SHE IS TO BE PLAYING OUT DIANE’S OCD STORY…

f there’s one thing that’s been drummed into us over the past year, it’s the importance of cleanliness, and making sure we constantly wash our hands. However, for some people, keeping their loved ones safe from potentially harmful germs can turn into a compulsion, as we’ve seen with Diane in Hollyoaks recently. She’s preparing for the birth of her new baby, and it’s clear that her obsession with keeping her house clean is more than just the usual nesting urges that women can experience during the later stages of pregnancy. As we sit down for a chat with actress Alex Fletcher, she tells us that she’s delighted to have the chance to play out this OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) storyline with Diane, and highlight a mental health issue that’s impacting many people at this difficult time… “If I’m honest, at the start, there was a little bit of me Coming clean: Verity that thought, ‘Do people discovers the extent of Diane’s issues need to be watching this right now?’” she admits. “We’ve all been through a pandemic, and because of that, everything’s heightened. People’s behaviours have changed, with the washing of the hands constantly, and being more aware of germs. But Hollyoaks never shies

48 lnsideSoap

Papering over the cracks: It’s clear Diane is struggling

away from things that are current, so I was really flattered to be given this story. Change of Tone: Diane’s “I think the backstory with husband puts Diane is that she maybe had her behaviour this as a child or a teenager,” down to being pregnant continues Alex. “It was managed and she’s not had to think about it, but sadly it doesn’t just go away. And now she’s had this trauma that’s triggered everything again, and so she’s having these thoughts.” It’s been obvious to Diane’s friends and family that all is not right with her – though she’s just putting it down to her pregnancy, and her loved ones have so far accepted that. “Tony knows that something’s going on, but he just thinks it’s the hormones,” reveals Alex. “You can’t really argue with a pregnant woman who’s trying to protect her baby, can you? Diane’s hiding behind the fact that we’re in a pandemic and she’s pregnant, so no one will challenge her – but she’s really frightened. She’s reassuring herself and everyone else that once the baby comes, it’s going to be fine. And she’s desperate to believe that.” Things come to a head when Tony arranges a surprise vow renewal to show Diane just how much she means to him. However, rather than being delighted by the grand gesture, Diane is left terrified that it will lead to her loved ones being exposed to even more harmful germs.

“Verity comes to the flat, and Diane has wrapped everything in plastic!” shares Alex. “She’s worried that Tony might invite people back after the ceremony, and it’s a massive warning sign for Verity – Diane’s busted. This is not even something she’s doing to protect the baby, this is extreme behaviour. But Diane just can’t help herself, it makes her feel better, and makes the bad thoughts go away…” Everyone is left terribly worried for Diane, and ask Misbah to step in and offer some professional help. Yet Alex believes that, actually, Diane’s family is the key to helping her to recover. “I’ve spoken to a few people who have been really honest and open about their OCD,” she tells us. “And they’ve said that it’s your family and friends who are your rock. If they know you as a person, then they know that those thoughts don’t define you, and they can give you the reassurance you need. “I hope this storyline can shake off any stigma, and help anyone watching who is struggling with OCD,” adds Alex. “The main thing I’d say is, just don’t beat yourself up. There is help out there, from charities such as OCD-UK, and from friends and family. Hopefully this storyline will show that it is possible to recover with the right support, and ultimately have a happy ending.” Sarah Ellis

Diane just can’t help herself – it makes her feel better

MISSING in action! Alex misses her screen children…

Diane may be about to add another child to her brood, but it’s been a while since Alex saw her existing screen kids, thanks to the current Covid rules on set. And she tells us that she can’t wait to be reunited with them… “It will be lovely to be able to work with them again,” grins Alex. “They just bring a really positive energy. Plus, once the kids are back, we’ll know that the world really is getting back to normal.” Alex also gives us an insight into what we can expect once Diane’s new baby comes… “We’ve worked with a couple of dolls,” she tells us. “But we’ve also had one with a green-screen face so that we can superimpose the face of a real baby on it! I saw a clip, and it looks amazing. It’s so clever.” lnsideSoap 49

CORONATION STREET | ITV BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY

NICE TO MEET YA! We grill Corrie newcomer Sam Retford, aka Curtis…

hen handsome stranger Curtis rocked up on the cobbles last week, Emma was instantly smitten – although it turned out that her dad Steve already had history with the lad! We grabbed former Ackley Bridge star Sam Retford to get the lowdown on his character Curtis…

Hi, Sam! What was your first day on the Corrie set like? It was the most ‘Corrie’ day I could have had! I was on the cobbles in the morning, then the Rovers in the afternoon. It was super-overwhelming, but luckily I had Ali [Mardell, aka Emma] there to help me through. It was just so lovely to have her on hand, and she’s been wonderful in making me feel welcome.

Tell us a bit about Curtis…

played anyone like that before. He has a lot to learn, although he has a lot to offer as well.

What do you think it is about Emma that Curtis likes? He sees this as a fresh start, a complete new chapter, and that’s exciting. In Emma, Curtis has this person who takes him under her wing, and he really appreciates that. He’s trying to win her over!

Who else have you been filming with on set? On my ﬁrst day I also had some scenes with Simon [Gregson, who plays Steve]. Pretty much all of my scenes have been with him and Ali, but I’d happily do all of my scenes with those two. They’re both fantastic. I’m learning loads from them already – while pretending that I know what I’m doing! Sarah Ellis

THE KEY RELATIONSHIPS CILLA & LES Cilla was such an awful mum that out of this gruesome twosome it was layabout Les who became Ches’ role model! Ches’ upbringing made him determined to be the best dad he possibly could.

SCHMEICHEL The boy and his best pal were inseparable during Ches’ early days on the Street. The Great Dane survived being hit by a bus driven by Claire Peacock, but died of liver cancer in 2011, leaving Ches heartbroken.

THE CLASSIC SCENE After Les reunites with ex Janice, Cilla makes life so difficult for him that he’s forced to cut ties with her – which includes little Ches… CHES “What’s going on? Why are you shouting?”

“Do you know that there’s a life-size cardboard cutout of you on eBay?” My brother found that and told me! I was cracking up, and a lot of people said to me that I should buy it for my boyfriend Lewis’ 30th birthday. That would have been going way too far, but it was funny to see. I could take it along to a red carpet event and just put it there!

At a graveyard. Fortunately, I wasn’t attending a funeral at the time, although the person who spotted me was, which is why it was a strange moment – as they approached me! I came away thinking, ‘What just happened?’

“What makes you smile, and what scares you the most?”

“What’s the best showbiz party you’ve ever been to?”

Checkmate: Bernie was a chess champ

“What’s the best showbiz do you’ve been to?”

“Does Bernadette still dream off becoming a film star, and what movie do you reckon she would have most wanted to be in?” Yes, I remember! She just wanted to be famous, didn’t she? It’s not a movie, but I think Bernie could, should and would be in The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix. She has her chess history, so she and Mr Murray [former character Ted] could set up and go across the world. Charlie Winter [who played Hunter Owen in EastEnders] taught me how to play chess for that particular storyline. It’s been so long that I don’t know if I still can play, but Maisie [Smith, aka Tiffany] has been learning, so it’s caught on for a few of us!

“What song is most likely to get Bernie on the dance floor at The Prince Albert, Albert and which track would get you up for a spin?” For Bernie, it wou uld definitely be a cheesy tune like the Cha Cha Slide, or Y.M.C.A. mayb be. My favourite song is Never Kn new Love Like This Before, by Step phanie Mills. I’m quite old-school, and love my 80s music.

MYSTERY MO ANOTHER 12 MASKED CELEBS PERFORM FOR US – BUT THIS

he TV entertainment smash-hit of the year so far has surely been The Masked Singer, with 10 million of us watching back in February as Sausage revealed herself as platinumselling artist Joss Stone. And now, there’s a whole new company of crazy characters to confuse and confound us! Only this time, the costumed celebrities won’t be singing – they’ll be dancing…

“It’s joyous, it’s silly, it’s fun, and it’s taken the format to another level,” reckons show host Joel Dommett, who’s moved to the spin-off, along with most of the regular panel. “It’s just as bizarre, if not more so! Because you haven’t got the foundation of the voices,

you’re really focused on the clues and body shapes.” “I think it’s harder to guess, even though they’re giving us more clues!” concurs panellist Jonathan Ross. “There may be some people who you’ve seen dancing before, but if you’ve never seen them dance, how do you know how

they move? There’s not much to go on, although there are some very interesting twists.” “Your favourite elements of the show remain,” promises fellow panellist Davina McCall. “It’s still the ultimate game of Guess Who, but there’s no guessing by voice. It’s harder, but that’s what makes it fun!”

IT’S EVEN HARDER TO GUESS, BUT THAT’S WHAT MAKES IT FUN!” DAVINA

OVES!

TIME, THEY’RE DANCING… “The beauty of this is that anyone can dance,” says Mo Gilligan, who’s also transferred from The Masked Singer panel. “With singing, you kind of know who’s a professional and who isn’t, but with the dancing, you could just learn a few moves and be good at it.” There is one newcomer to the panel – in place of Rita Ora – Strictly’s Oti Mabuse. But despite being a professional dancer, she admits that even

she can’t work out who the mystery dancers are… “Dancing is fun, but you’re adding another element by having to guess who it is,” she muses. “I thought I’d be okay at it, but I am so terrible!” One aspect of The Masked Dancer that’s identical to its precursor is the incredible attire worn by the performers. “There are some really great costumes!” enthuses Jonathan. “I love Beetroot –

she’s beautiful and elegant. People will love Squirrel – she has a little furry tummy, which, as you get older, you really appreciate in a woman. Zip and Knickerbocker Glory are fun, too – they’ll make you laugh!” “Llama is so funny!” agrees Davina. “You can tell the ones who are natural comedians who want to bring a giggle to the show. They add so much personality to their costumes. The minute the music stops,

Beagle is snifﬁng around or cocking a leg! And Rubber Chicken made me howl!” “I love Scarecrow and Carwash,” offers Mo. “They all need to be able to really move around in their costumes, but they are all incredible.” “My mind has been blown,” gasps Oti. “You don’t expect that level of dance – Carwash doing backﬂips in a huge costume. It’s absolutely crazy!” Tom Spilsbury lnsideSoap 61

Royal approval: Henry and d Anne are shown to have a passionate relationship

any a my yth has sprun ng up over the centuries s about Henry VIII’s seco ond wife, Anne Boleyn – no ot least due to the fact that Henry, eager to crack o on with wife No 3, tried to erase the Queen conso ort from history by destroying her portraits and letterrs, as well as removing he er emblems from royal residences and, more famously, her head. This grandiose new three-part psychologicall thriller looks at Anne’s ﬁnal months through her eyes, as she attempts to push back against the patriarchal society she inhabits. Jodie Turner-Smith, who plays Anne, reveals what we can expect… “I see Anne as ﬁerce, passionate and opinionated: characteristics that for a woman in the British court would have been threatening to the men around her,” shares Jodie. “When we meet her, she's at the height of her feminine power: Catherine of Aragon was put aside for her, she’s pregnant with what she thinks is a son, and has one healthy child in Elizabeth. So, she feels untouchable.” In the opener, while Anne is convinced that she will bear her husband an heir, he’s

Jod die. “We’re trying to tell a more human story: Anne was interested in art and science, and had her own views on religion. I think our telling focuses on what she thought, and how what she was trying to do was really quite feminist. In many ways, she was a woman before her time.” After Henry is later involved in an almost fatal

riding accident, the court vultures begin to circle, and Anne’s status grows fragile, so she needs a plan to reposition herself as Henry’s equal. And while historically it’s unclear exactly what caused Anne to miscarry shortly afterwards, she walks in on Jane sitting on Henry’s lap, causing her to become terribly distressed. “In many ways, Anne’s story is similar to the experiences women still have,” muses Till death Jodie. “It's so much us do part: about what it is that Henry orders we're supposed Anne’s to be useful to do, execution and what our bodies can and cannot do, and how those things are weaponised against us. When a woman is powerful, it's very easy for her to be torn down…” Lynn Gibson

It’ l d when a series It’s always sad of Call The Midwife reaches its end – and particularly poignant this time, with this run marking the popular Poplar drama’s milestone anniversary (though hooray for another two series already in the pipeline!).

Typically, however, there’s no let-up in the enlightening and heart-warming adventures of Nonnatus House in tonight’s final instalment. Sister Hilda takes charge while Sister Julienne enjoys some muchdeserved annual leave at

the Mother House – and with the area’s housing crisis getting worse, the entire team must continue their fight for badlyneeded change. But the birth of a very special baby provides the perfect opportunity for all to pause for grateful thought…

For those who’ve missed Piers Morgan’s infamous Good Morning Britain rants after his departure from the breakfast show earlier this year (anyone?), here’s a chance to look back at a few of his warmer moments, courtesy of his Life Stories series. Whatever we make of the former tabloid editor’s forthright opinions, there’s no denying his abilities when it comes to persuading some of our favourite celebrities to open up in candid fashion. In this compilation of favourite moments since his in-depth interview show began in 2009, Piers revisits chats with stars including Sir Bruce Forsyth, Dame Barbara Windsor and Simon Cowell.

With an arrest made in connection to Jack’s death, Anna, Nancy, Louie and Cat’s now infamous bond has been stretched to its limit – but investigating officer (and, awkwardly, Anna’s husband) Max is determined to unearth

Taking a jab THE ANTI-VAX CONSPIRACY | Channel 4 9PM At a time when it’s never been more vital that we do all we can to protect ourselves (and our fellow humans) while still in the midst of the pandemic, this feature-length documentary explores the origins of the anti-vaccination movement – an organisation which challenges the safety and effectiveness of all vaccines. Arguments for and against will be examined via interviews with experts on the movement and its supporters, as well as with parents with opinions on both sides. It’ll also be revealed how the anti-vax group’s campaign has impacted efforts to wipe out Covid across the globe.

Harry we go again!

H ’ your one-week warning Here’s if you’re not a footie fan – Euro 2020 is almost here! Yes, it’s a year late, and yes, it’ll mean some disruption to all of our favourite soaps (boo!), but we still can’t help but be rather excited by the prospect.

To get us in the mood for the month-long festival of football, Sir Harry Redknapp is taking his team of England legends across Europe, for another kick-off with their old enemies, Germany, on their home soil. Last time the two sides met,

the legendary lions won 4-2 in London, but since then, the Germans have strengthened, while the English have gone back to their old boozy ways. Can Sir Harry and assistant manager John Barnes whip the ageing stars back into shape?

Body shock 21 DAY BODY TURNAROUND WITH MICHAEL MOSLEY | Channel 4 9PM Three weeks doesn’t sound long, but for the five volunteers who’ve put their lives in the hands of Dr Michael Mosley, it must seem like an eternity. We’re into week two, and as they gather for a high-intensity training session with Dr Folusha Oluwajana, Michael is keen to assess just how hard they’re all working. They won’t be resting after that, either, as next on the agenda is cold-water swimming at a temperature of just eight degrees centigrade. Brrr! And exercise will only get the five halfway to their goals – can a self-confessed ‘junk food vegan’ help them improve their diets?

WHAT’S HIT THE BULLSEYE RECENTLY – AND WHAT’S FALLEN WIDE OF THE MAR RK? It’s fair to assume your average Corrie viewer came away from Friday’s episode feeling really old. Trill? Isn’t that a brand of budgie seed?

For someone who has been MIA for half the year “watching box-sets on his tod”, Emmerdale’s Ben is suddenly Mr Personality. What was he bingeing? The Happy Feet franchise? Glee seasons 1 to 3?

And thank you for the unexpected (but very welcome) gay version of Love Island. Our prediction: Ethan h and Ben couple up, while Luke wa waits in the wings as a surprise bomb bsh hell.

Chas referencing Carl’s demise right through to Cameron’s killing spree was the Emmerdale nostalgia g trip we didn’t know w ne week. A vintage e At least Witnesss Protection d hasn’t prevented Leanne from getting a haircut. She wants to e look good for the udge,, innit. judge innit This has to be the easiesst money Willl Mellor’s eve er made m – barkin ng threats from m a prison cell every other Wednesday.

Only in EastEnders would the stranger you blast “an old perv” turn out, two scenes later, to be your father. Welcome, Brian Conley! We can’t think of a better fit for EastEnders since Danny Dyer arrived to give the Vic the once-over. Though, if we were Carol Jackson, we we’d d be fe feeling short-changed. Consideriing some of the rotten blokess she had to put up w with, Terry seems a bit of a catch!

We were certain that Kim would posiition n her spy camera in Millie’s dolls house, à la Hollyoaks’ Sienn Hollyoaks Sienna. But her all-seeing sttatue, The Stallion of Suspicion, is much h better. better

Thank mercy Bailey is home! We were about to go out looking for her ourselves, just to get it over with.

Boozy Audrey regaling Sam with tales of wild times in swinging 60s London – and cheesy chips in an Aberdeen Steak House – is exactly what soap needs more of.

We hope Zack has been okay in this recent cold snap, what with seemingly having no clothes to t wearr. We have to a admire Noah’s ndercover work un at Home Farm, camouflaged as a painting of a tree. Jenny’s post-coital colour was quite the display. Corrie should hang it in an art g gallery. y
