During tonight's Boxing Day episode (26th December) of Coronation Street, viewers saw Peter and Carla Barlow is a very special episode which led to Peter leaving Weatherfield. This special episode featured fan favourites Peter and Carla Barlow as they hit a rough patch in their marriage leading to some home truths being revealed. After everything the couple have been through recently you could see the strain in Carla's eyes and the way that Alison King delivered the dialogue with such emotion that she had Peter's best interests at heart. Photo Credit: ITV/ Coronation Street The scenes in the flat were rather emotional and you could see how much all Carla wanted was/ is the best for her husband even if it is hurting them both but I personally feel like Carla has a point. The love between the characters is and always will be there despite what happens next for them! Alison King and Chris Gascoyne deliver the best emotional scenes whilst nailing emotions that go with it first

I have watched EastEnders since I was a young girl, however, have struggled to watch it live since lockdown but last night's Christmas Day episode (25th December) was just incredible. From the very moment we were shown what was going to happen during this year's Christmas episode back in February, I can honestly say I have been hooked. Thank you for a brilliant lead up. All of the SIX involved - Kathy Beale, Stacey Slater, Linda Carter, Sharon Watts, Denise Fox and Suki Panesar have led me to changing my mind on many occasions even until moments before last night's episode aired. I always thought it was Stacey Slater but didn't 100% know the victim but Keanu Taylor was the person who I'd always said, but recently thought it could have been Nish or Phil Mitchell due to his involvement in the Sharon storyline with Albie crossed my mind. However, once the Christmas episode started I was hooked especially as the Queen Vic featured in the first scene, then the SIX being

To end the year, I caught up with Tigirlily Gold made up of sisters, Kendra and Krista who this year have had a brilliant year when coming to the UK for 2023 (where they will debuted but next year on The Spotlight Stage), playing The Grand Ole Opry, releasing their debut EP, Blonde along with their plans for 2024. Photo taken by me at C2C 2023 Hello Krista and Kendra, how are you? Hey Kellie! We are doing great! Thanks for checking in! 2023 has been a busy year for you both in March you came over to the UK for C2C, how did you find the whole experience? Performing in London for the first time was one of our absolute favorite memories of 2023 and will be ingrained in our brains forever. The way the fans showed up for us was unbelievable! They knew every word to our song "Shoot Tequila!" We were booked for the festival fairly last minute and barely made our shows due to a delayed flight, but it was well worth it because of the fans. I have to say your performances, I caught we

Following Coronation Street viewers seeing Daniel Osborne discover the truth that his fiancee, Daisy Midgeley and Ryan Connor had slept together, this Christmas is set to be an interesting one as Charlotte Jordan talks about Daisy's break up from Daniel, The Rovers, and her future on the show. When asked about how Daisy is feeling about breaking up with Daniel, Charlotte commented:  "She’s in a lot of pain. In Daisy fashion, she masks her true feelings with a face full of makeup and witty remarks but she is heartbroken. Fresh out of the break up with Daniel, I think she’s still hoping for a reconciliation. They’ve always had such a fiery relationship and now she’s left hoping and praying once he’s had a bit of time to take the initial sting away, she can convince him to make another go of it." With Bethany Platt returning, does Daisy see Bethany as a threat given her history with Daniel: "Oh god absolutely. She’s beautiful, she’s been told how successful Bethany is l

Over this years festive episodes to Weatherfield, Coronation Street viewers will see the return of Bethany Platt played by the brilliant Lucy Fallon following the character's departure in 2020. Talking of Bethany's return and being back, Lucy Fallon said:  "It feels really good, it's really nice to come back in and be with the people that I was so used to be working with for over 5 years. I was really nervous to go back, but it feels like I have never been away which absolutely feels quite bizarre because a lot of things have changed." Photo Credit: ITV/ Coronation Street Bethany is set to arrive back on the cobbles over the New Year when Daniel spots her and it's not long before she is reunited with the Platt family.  I can't wait to see Lucy Fallon back on our screens after 3 years as well as her reuniting with Tina O'Brien as I love Bethany and Sarah's bond. When asked about the biggest change in Bethany, Lucy added:  "I'd say she's

For over a decade, Carla and Peter Barlow's love story has captured the hearts of many due to their rollercoaster of a relationship as well as them getting married for a second time in 2021. This festive period is set for change for Carla as Peter is set to leave the cobbles in a heartbreaking Boxing Day episode. When asked what it was like to film Chris Gascoyne's final scenes which was just the two of them as well as the exit storyline, Alison King said "We're filming solidly together for two days. There was a lot to learn. But aside from that it was amazing, but it was so emotional, I did not need any tearstick for those scenes. There was no way of knowing what would happen because every time we did it I literally filled up with emotion and started crying at different times in every scene. Just seeing a different look from Chris would set me off because he's so wonderful at Meisner technique which involves an actor reacting to another actor’s performance and beh

Over the past few years, I have loved watching Coronation Street over the festive period more than normal, and this year's looks to be filled with proper soap drama as relationships are set to reach breaking points. With the festive period approaching Jenny Connor and Daisy Midgeley are determined to raise the money needed to buy The Rovers back. It's not a soap until you resort to desperate measures, but will they succeed?  You have to love Charlotte Jordan and Sally Ann Matthews scenes. You can't forget that currently Daisy is going through a rough patch following Daniel Osborne turning his back on her after affair with Ryan Connor, could this festive period see Daisy happy again? As 2023 is set to come to a close and the New Year dawns it seems that the drama is just beginning as viewers can expect fireworks when Bethany Platt explodes back onto the street for a surprise visit. Is there more to her sudden arrival than a family catch up?  I am so excited for Bethany's

God bless y’all." Scotty continued   "When I got started doing this people asked, ‘what are your goals'  voice cracking with emotion, he shared  "
