EMMERDALE’S BOYS SAY I DO

You could hardly call the village of Emmerdale quiet or sleepy – especially when they’re about to have their first ever gay wedding! Could it be barman Paul, hiding-in-closet Grayson or new resident Jonny?

CASUALTY PLAYS IT SAFE

A recent two-part episode about Muslim suicide bombers has been changed at the last minute so as not to cause any offence. Instead, the villains will now be animal extremists and the story will introduce a new doctor called Toby De Silva.



CELEB BB NOT HAPPENING

Just as rumours flew that Paris Hilton was about to appear on Celebrity Big Brother comes the most shocking news of all – Channel 4 has pulled the show from its schedule with only a vague notion that it might be back in 2009. Is this the beginning of the end for BB?

PLAYING HARD TO GET ..... TWICE

The glory of Corrie's 47 years on screen is the characters' pasts provide endless storylines. When Eileen finally got her way with reticent Christian Ed, his guilt drove him to Emily's door to confess his real identity. He's just completed a prison sentence for killing Emily's sainted husband Ernest in 1978 but Saint Emily spent the week wrestling her demons to find forgiveness to give Ed the redemption he seeks (yawn). Emily hasn't really had to play anything but sweet old widow since the murder so some of her enraged scenes were a bit of a stretch. Her angry face looked like she had something caught in her dentures and when she started reciting the Lord's Prayer....Lord have mercy!

Desperate Eileen weighed it up for about two seconds before she took Ed back, "I'm gonna play hard to get" she said to camp Sean who quickly reminded her Ed had already, and quite recently, been there, "Hard to get twice, then" she barked.

The Streets new villain, David Platt, is up to his neck in Weatherfield's biggest ever cannabis bust. Under the guise of walking a new neighbour's dog while she was overseas in Singapore, he was actually tending her hydroponic crop. Kicking a hose by mistake he caused a leak which alerted police. But stupid mum Gail still falls for it when he swears he's not involved with drugs. And Fred Elliot's engaged again! His track record of failed rushed marriages is a well known joke. What disaster will befall his union with Bev?
