This time last weekend I was crouching awkwardly behind Amanda Barrie and internally squealing over Stephanie Beacham complimenting my dress and Claire King remembering me.

Ever the pro Jean Rogers keeping her eyes firmly upward

Zack is a totally different and much better person when he's with Sam. Let them ride off into the sunset together. #EastEnders

His character arc has been super disappointing. He just comes across as a creepy stalker at this point. The only bright point is his relationship with Sam.

His name is Steven Arnold

Fantastic day at Larkhall Unlocked yesterday. I could have listened to Stephanie Beacham and Amanda Barrie share stories all day whilst Claire King did her best to keep them on track.

As are Stephanie Beacham and Amanda Barrie. Unsurprisingly.

She’s just fabulous

Whenever I play my dad at scrabble I imagine what growing up with Ken Barlow would have been like

God I adore him

Oh god. I’d not contemplated the idea of a baby. But that’s absolutely going to happen isn’t it? 😭😭😭

I’m just hoping and praying her return doesn’t focus on Cain. I’d love for her to have a scene where she reaches the realisation that she was ridiculous for ever fancying him. And then she can turn her attentions to Ross and Mack. And be a frenemy of Kim’s.

Emmerdale can scrap all the women they want (apart from Kim, obvs) if it means they have the budget to bring back Sadie King.

So mad to think she got axed for that when you consider what some of the cast have done these days.

Might start watching modern Emmerdale.

Without going upstairs with Steph Barnes this time.

So much time for this

The alt text is brilliant on this as well 😍

I’m a Mel Hutchwright gal first and foremost (as well you know)

BEYOND THRILLED

1. Delighted by her reading material
2. Even more delighted that you remembered I’m also a fan
3. Considering taking my copy of ‘Jump!’ to the Larkhall Unlocked event in a couple of weeks to get Claire King herself to sign

Me to ITV

I was trying to find an image for McCarthy’s earlier 😭

I miss Corrie having multiple “off the Street” restaurants. RIP The Clock.

Really niche issue I have about reduced budgets for soaps is the fact we never see bedroom scenes anymore. Characters doing their makeup at the kitchen table or packing for holidays in the living room just doesn’t sit right. Especially Kim Tate.

Tony Maudsley gives such a lovely performance in tonight’s Corrie. I’m really glad they’ve had it be George who recognises what Theo is doing.

Would probably walk down the aisle to this

Phewf.
