From their posts as Forrester Creations’ head receptionist and security guard, Pam and Charlie have long been witness to all that goes on in the often sordid lives of the owners. No matter what drama occurs, committed lovebirds Pam and Charlie strive to maintain a neutral stance, while also fending off any hint of trouble. Lately, Pam (Alley Mills) and Charlie (Dick Christie) have noticed something brewing among the family and they’re not happy about it. Always taking a keen interest in everyone’s love-lives, Pam grows especially troubled by Hope’s (Annika Noelle) behaviour in the wake of Liam’s (Scott Clifton) decision to reunite with Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). Spying Hope cornering Liam alone in her office, Pam is on red alert, filling in Charlie about the intimate nature of the…

Heavily pregnant with Billy’s baby, Chelsea thinks she’s got enough problems surrounding the plan to allow he and Victoria to adopt the baby once it’s born. She knows Victoria doesn’t fully trust her to follow her with the plan and is getting sick and tired of Victoria watching her like a hawk. However, having her mother Anita in town is only causing her more misery... A consummate con artist, Anita (Catherine Bach) is keeping secrets of her own, especially about her true connection to Jeffrey (Ted Shackleford) and the fact that he could be Chelsea’s (Melissa Claire Egan) biological father. Despite denying that he’s Chelsea’s father, Jeffrey appears cornered when Anita’s lawyer Michael (Christian Le Blanc) runs DNA tests which prove Chelsea is his daughter. To keep the secret, Jeffrey…

Deep inside the tunnels underneath Salem where the crazed Andrew Stark is holding Melanie prisoner, an ominous smell begins pervading the enclosed area. Melanie now fears Andrew will never release her... Suddenly, anxiety turns to desperation when she identifies the strange smell as leaking gas, just as she notices faulty electrical wiring nearby!

ASH: “Ash was her bad-boy rebellion phase. Tori is a healer – it’s what she does for a living. I think she really saw Ash as one who needed fixing.” DUNCAN: “Truthfully, Duncan was much more invested in the relationship than Tori was because Tori still held a flame to Nate. But it was wonderful to be adored by this man.” NATE: “They were so intellectually matched, and the chemistry was fierce! Nate was like her really hot work romance, and they were good together, but the timing was never right.” Life with the Morgans The recent weeks have marked a significant Summer Bay milestone – the Morgan family have just marked two years in town, weathering more than a few storms along the way. At the two-year point of…

“When Allie and Kaz come face to face with Marie again, it’s only a matter of time until a brutal showdown erupts.” Meet Marie Winter. She’s not to be messed with after a life lived life on the mean streets. She’s also the newest inmate at Wentworth Correctional Centre, and the type of work she’s been involved with over the years means there’s a number of women on the inside keen to catch up with her again. Make that very keen. So when Marie (Susie Porter) sets foot in the prison in upcoming episodes of Wentworth , she’s a marked woman from those first minutes inside. She’s not safe, and she knows it. On the outside, Marie ran half the brothels and strip…

Don’t mess with this guy’s family is the main takeaway from the big-screen blockbuster Skyscraper. Action hero Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson goes to new heights – literally – to save his loved ones, using not only his muscles, brain and good looks, but also his character’s disability. Will Sawyer, a former FBI Hostage Rescue Team leader who lost his left leg on a mission a decade ago and now assesses security for skyscrapers, is a character who holds a very special place in the wrestler-turned-actor’s surprisingly open heart. “This character is very meaningful to me,” the man mountain says. “I not only wanted to make sure that the amputee is celebrated, but also show that it’s really kick-ass to be an amputee!” His inspiration for the character was Jeff Glasbrenner,…

After the physical pain and mental torment that Bethany Platt endured last year when her evil boyfriend Nathan sexually groomed her and then pimped her out to be repeatedly raped by his friends, she’s battled to bury her demons as best she can and get on with her life, knowing Nathan and the other perpetrators are in jail. However, Bethany’s gentle romance with new boyfriend Craig has hit the skids due to unresolved issues surrounding her ordeal. Fortunately, they’ve opted to remain good friends, but Bethany has now become jealous of a Weatherfield newcomer’s interest in Craig.

Seriously perturbed by Kayla’s attitude towards the sweet…

Sounds like there’s a ton of drama unfolding on The Bold and the Beautiful with the show’s head writer/executive producer Bradley Bell offering us a sneak peek. He’s hinted that Dollar Bill may show some signs of turning over a new leaf, saying, “I think he can be redeemed, but he is on the edge.” And fans will be salivating at the very real possibility of the sexy soap reigniting the classic love triangle between Brooke, Ridge and Taylor! “We’ve had so many years of great drama with Hunter [Tylo] and [Katherine] Kelly [Lang] in the mix with Ridge, so that is certainly a possibility in the future,” he offers. Brad also confirmed that Sally’s new story will be “peaking” in the coming months, Thorne will…

It’s that time of year again when Forrester Creations hires new interns and so far spunky Emma’s impressing everyone she meets. Eric and Ridge are clear fans of her enthusiasm for fashion and confidence – and fellow new intern Xander Avant, Julius’ nephew and Maya’s cousin, is fast becoming besotted by her. The fact that Emma (Nia Sioux) accidentally knocked Xander (Adain Bradley) unconscious while she was demonstrating dance moves for Hope (Annika Noelle) made him sit up and take notice of her, especially as it was his first day on the job! While Emma succeeded in not only winning Xander’s heart but also earning a place on the team preparing the campaign to relaunch the Hope for the Future collection, nobody had any idea she was keeping a big…

With Marie Winter’s arrival in Wentworth, and the recent appearance of Rita Connors (Leah Purcell), it marks the inclusion of two more iconic characters from the original Prisoner series. In Prisoner, Marie was played by Maggie Millar and Rita was played by Glenda Linscott.

Getting a superstar body can take a little trial and error, and even your favourite A-lister has to find what works best for them. It won’t always happen easily, and it doesn’t occur overnight, but if you listen to your gut – or follow your instincts – it can be the best advice around when it comes to the best way to reach your ideal weight and get a great figure. “Intuitive wellness” may not be something you hear about all the time, and quite possibly you’ve never heard of it before; it basically comes down to listening to your body and how it reacts to the different stresses we throw at it on a daily basis, and how we respond. This can be from the foods we eat, how…

LUKE PERRY Underwear This is certainly one of those times when sending weird fan mail paid off! At the height of hunky Luke’s Beverly Hills 90210 fame, a fan, Rachel “Minnie” Sharp, sent the actor her underwear... along with her phone number. Luke must’ve been impressed as he rang, dated her, was married to her from 1993-2003 and they have two kids together. We assume it wasn’t a pair of beige granny-spanx. KE$HA Teeth What is it with fans sending body parts? And how do they function without some of their more crucial bits when they have mailed them off to celebs? Pop icon Kesha started receiving teeth through the mail some years ago! Like Jared Leto, she decided to just go with it and apparently…

Days fans have again waved goodbye to Paul Telfer, whose character Xander Kiriakis exited last month, armed with damaging dirt on Brady and Nicole. However, we haven’t seen the last of either the character or the star: Xander will reappear to wind up a little bit of unfinished business... On the heels of Marci Miller’s (Abigail) decision to quit Days, comes Christopher Sean (Paul) is also leaving. The actor, who joined the show in November 2014, shot his final scenes in late May, on the same day as Marci, but due to the advanced production schedule, Paul will still be seen until late in the year. Sean’s next gig is the new animated Disney series Stars Wars Resistance.…

While the siblings are trapped and fighting for survival, their disappearance results in a big surprise appearance in Ramsay Street – their mother Liz Conway. Taking on the role is Home and Away legend Debra Lawrence, most famous for playing the beloved Summer Bay matriarch Pippa Ross for almost two decades. Once Debra arrives in Erinsborough as Liz, with her daughters missing and their friends fearing for their lives, it turns out Liz has a very clear agenda for her surprise appearance. “Let’s just say that nothing makes sense with everything that is going on until their crazy mum arrives in town,” Bonnie Anderson adds cryptically. Not that this is the first time Liz has appeared in Ramsay Street. She was previously played by actress Christine Keogh in the early…

As plot devices go, bringing back someone who’s been killed off isn’t exactly a new concept. However, when it’s done well there’s nothing more fun than suspending disbelief and just going with it – especially if it’s a fan favourite we’re desperate to see again! Over the years quite a few fairly eyebrow-raising situations have been reversed in order to shake things up on a show. Lost at sea? You can be found by passing fishermen. Perished in a fire? It was just a clever ruse! It all goes to prove there’s nothing in soap world that can’t be undone. These seven characters were all granted revivals and reappeared with good reasons for their absences – whether that was throwing their enemies off the trail, protecting loved ones or simply…

Dannii Minogue The TV talent show mentor has been savaged by over the years for her “frozen face” due to overusing Botox, and one-time co-host Sharon Osbourne cruelly observed that she must’ve had a bad plastic surgeon! Dannii, 46, who’s comforted her sister Kylie through breast cancer, has responded by saying she is guilty of using the cosmetic injectable, but often to mask sadness! “If there’s something wrong with my sister, I can’t even sleep at night and it’s the same with her about me,” Dannii’s said. Gwyneth Paltrow She‘s an advocate for all sorts of new-age beauty treatments, but Botox is not one of them!
