Do you believe Bea is still attracted to Finn? "She's still quite guarded with him. But slowly she feels more comfortable with him. She likes having Finn around as she wants to be the one to catch him out if anything goes wrong. Keep your enemies close. That is in the back of her mind, for sure." Finn has definitely been the cause of trouble between Bea and Finn! "Bea loves Ned and their friendship is so strong. But Ned can be quite controlling and a bit bossy, and Bea has already been in a very controlling relationship when she was with Finn/Patrick. So Ned starts to get on Bea's nerves and she wants him to back off - she can look after herself and he needs to stick by her as a partner. But Ned's defensive mechanism takes over, he just wants Finn to be nowhere near his girlfriend." Other people including Bea's aunt Susan have forgiven Finn. But not Ned? "That was huge for Bea, when Susan forgave Finn. She really looks up to her. If Susan thinks it's OK, Bea will give it a go too. But Ned continues to be disrepectful to the family, aggressive and barging in. It's taken a toll on their relationship. It's not all midnight walks anymore!" What about this SHOCK poison gas attack, on the day of Toadie's launch for the Sonya Rebecchi Foundation? "Everyone's at the Community Centre. Suddenly people start feeling ill, vomiting, passing out. Bea gets caught up in it all and passes out. Someone has left canisters of poison gas in the air vents..." What?! "It was the hardest thing to do. I had to have an anxiety attack and have convulsions. I was terrified to film it. It's all about doing things with your body you wouldn't normally do. There was no vanity!" View oEmbed on the source website Who attacks Elly in Neighbours? Finn Kelly moves in with the Kennedys in Neighbours... and makes a move on ex-fiancee Bea?

Ned is emotional, does things out of love and doesn't always think it through. How does Bea react to Ned's heartfelt confession? "Ned confesses at Bea's hospital bedside, thinking she’s unconscious... but she can actually hear him! It's a really sad moment and she hears everything. But Ned leaves and he doesn’t realise. Bea plays dead but she's really thinking, ‘What the heck just happened?!’" So could this be the end for Bea and Ned? "We never know what the future holds...! But I certainly woudn't stay with my boyfriend if he did that to me, it's too dangerous. Bea doesn't not love Ned and understands where he’s coming from. We all make mistakes, but he could’ve really hurt her and her family. It’s just not on. There is too much anger at the moment and nothing positive. So a break would be sensible... If Bea and Ned break-up, does this mean the coast is clear for Finn to make a move? "Well, there is certainly history. Kind of fake history! It would be crazy to watch that happen.

Gemma discovers she's pregnant in Coronation Street
But just after she gets dumped by boyfriend Chesney!
Oh dear, it's not looking good for Chesney Brown and Gemma Winter in Coronation Street. It could be make or break for the couple when they head off on a camping trip together this week, which quickly turns into a holiday from hell! But little do either of 'em know but their relationship is about to get a serious shake-up... When Gemma starts feeling sick, unsympathetic Chesney thinks it's just down to too much boozing. But on Wednesday 24 April, family friend Rita Tanner wonders if the sickness could be down to something else and suggests Gemma does a pregnancy test! But how will Chesney, who is getting more and more fed-up with his girlfriend, react if he finds out the test is positive... Coronation Street star Dolly Rose Campbell, who plays Gemma, reveals more about the baby bombshell... Things haven’t been going too well for Gemma and Chesney recently. Is their relationship on the rocks? "They’re starting to get on each others nerves now the reality of living together has sunk in. I think the initial excitement of getting together is starting to wear off now. They have very different ways of being, Gemma’s quite impulsive whereas Chesney is much more responsible." Is Gemma seeing a different side to Chesney now? "Yeah, when they were friends and when they weren’t living together she always saw the best side of him, his fun side, and now she’s seeing him in a domestic setting she’s seeing another side." It’s quite hard for any woman coming into Chesney’s life because they’re put into the step mum role with Joseph. Gemma’s not had any experience of raising kids, do you think he’s asking too much of her? "Possibly and it does become a bit of a bone of contention between them because he doesn’t think she’s responsible enough when it comes to Joseph. But Gemma and Joseph do get on, Gemma does enjoy spending time with him and is more than willing to take on that role because she loves both of them. She shows Joseph how to have fun, which he needs." Gemma starts to suffer with sickness, does she just think it’s a hangover at first? "Initially she does have a terrible hangover, then when it doesn’t go away she thinks she’s poorly so when Rita suggests she might be pregnant she thinks it’s a joke at first, she doesn’t really give it much thought. Then it dawns on her that Rita could be right." View oEmbed on the source website Peter gets shock news in search for Carla in Coronation Street SHOCK arrest for Imran Habeeb in Coronation Street? Which soap character has the WORST life just from looking at their Wikipedia page? How does she react, is it sheer terror or a bit of excitement? "It’s shock more than anything else at first, when that dies down she is excited as well. It’s a mix of emotions; excitement, fear and panic because Chesney has already made her feel she’s not very responsible when it comes to parenting so that’s knocked her confidence with her own pregnancy and her ability to raise a baby." How do Rita and Gemma's brother Paul react to news of her pregnancy? "They’re supportive of whatever Gemma wants." Before Gemma can tell Chesney the news he breaks off their relationship! Why does she then keep quiet about the pregnancy? "She doesn’t want him to be with her because he feels he has to be for the sake of the baby, she wants him to want to be with her for her." Does Gemma decide to go ahead with the pregnancy, potentially as a single mum? "She’s looking to the future on her own, she’s got this real bee in her bonnet about Chesney not thinking she’s responsible enough. She’s had a real blow to her confidence and she is worried. But just because Gemma doesn’t always do things the way other people do that doesn’t mean she’s doing it wrong. It’s not easy being a mum for anyone." Would you like to see Gemma and Chesney get back together? "I’m not sure, them living together has led to quite an unhappy environment which wouldn’t be the best thing for a baby so maybe it would be more interesting to see them working together as friends. They’re so different in their ways it will be interesting to see how they’ll tackle this." Visit our dedicated Coronation Street page for all the latest news, interviews and spoilers.

However, on the Aussie soap on Tuesday 23 April, everyone in Erinsborough is shocked when former high school teacher Finn's court hearing comes to an end, and he is released without charge! But there's an even bigger shock in store on Wednesday 24 April, when Finn unexpectedly moves into Number 28, Ramsay Street with his ex-fiancee Bea Nilsson (Bonnie Anderson), her aunt Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne) and her hubby Karl (Alan Fletcher). What?! Already furious over the court's decision, Bea's boyfriend Ned Willis (Ben Hall) is on the warpath and snaps when he walks into the Kennedy house and catches his girlfriend Bea getting all handsy with a freshly showered Finn, wearing a towel! Neighbours star Ben Hall tells RadioTimes.com more about the scandalous goings-on in Ramsay Street... How does Ned react to the decision in court? "He’s stunned. The legal system in Erinsborough is quite lenient as we know, so he's probably not as shocked as viewers! Ned's floored but can see it coming because of the victim impact statements one by one saying Finn has changed and doesn’t realise what he's done because of his amnesia." Does Ned blames Bea for switching sides during the hearing "He's more disappointed than angry. He's so protective of her. His mission and the reason they’re together was because Ned was trying to protect Bea during their night walks and helping her to get over Finn. So it feels like the last few months has been pointless, Finn is walking free and Ned can't do anything about it. They were drawn together originally because of this." Is Ned doubting the future of their relationship? "No, I think there is doubt she still has feelings for Finn, almost a bit of Stockholm Syndrome. Is she thinking straight? Ned says it to Bea and she denies it completely. He plants that seed in her mind." What happens when Ned walks in and catches Bea and Finn? "Ned is 19. His mind is humorously innocent about things. At the moment! Bea hasn’t been answering his calls, Ned sees Bea help Finn tuck the towel back in as he's still injured from the hit and run outside the hospital. Ned walks in at the moment as Bea helps him gather his towel. He completely loses it, as you would." Ned accuses Finn of deliberately trying to tempt Bea? "Totally, he doesn’t trust Finn at all and is expecting the absolute worse. He doesn’t believe he’s this innocent young man." Ned is still protecting Bea. Does he think she’s being brainwashed again? "Manipulated over and over but she can’t see it." Does anyone else listen to Ned? Is everyone Team Finn?? "I know! Gary is still in the ‘I hate Finn’ club, possibly Sheila who gets turned. Ned and Gary are not on the Finn train. No one is listening to them. What a turnaround!" View oEmbed on the source website Finn saves Susan's life in Neighbours - will he escape prison? Jason Donovan's real-life daughter Jemma joins cast of Neighbours Ramsay Street comes under attack from razorblades in apricots! What's going on? "Before that is the incident with the car that tries to run down Susan and Imogen before Finn's hearing (on Tuesday 16 April). They don’t know who did it, possibly Finn’s mum Claudia or someone else. I wish policeman Mark would do his job and solve a crime! That’ll be the day! Then there’s the razorblades in the apricots. Who does that?! In Australia we had needles found in strawberries in the news, which is where the idea came from. Someone sabotages Karl’s fruit. Ned presumes it’s Finn." Does he accuse him? "Yes. He’s telling everyone there is no other option, he’s the only criminal on the street let’s lock him up and it will stop, but it continues happening." Is Ned worried about looking paranoid? "He starts to really doubt himself, he’s losing his mind running around screaming and no one takes him seriously. There's a period where Ned is a bit off the rails and people start turning against him and he feels quite isolated." Can Ned and Bea survive? "Their relationship has always been so up and down and back and forth, it's never been easy. In that sense they have a lot of strength and pull it back from the brink quite often. With what's coming up there's some crazy stuff he gets involved in and it will really push her away, it gets very tough. But I think they can come back from it..." How far is he prepared to go to get rid of Finn for protective reasons? "Ned's done it before, way back with Jaca and all those storylines protecting his family he’s taken things too far. People tend to repeat patterns is all I’ll say. Ned could definitely do something stupid if he’s not careful..." Visit our dedicated Neighbours page for all the latest news, interviews and spoilers.
Phil Mitchell ATTACKED by son Ben on EastEnders!
But is Phil starting to suspect Ben is up to no good?
As Phil Mitchell (played by Steve McFadden) desperately searched for his kidnapped daughter Louise (Tilly Keeper) in EastEnders tonight, he was the target of a SHOCK attack by his own son Ben Mitchell (Max Bowden)... On the BBC One soap on Tuesday 23 April, Phil was on the phone to Danny Hardcastle, demanding the tough guy tell him the location of the storage container where Louise (and also her boyfriend Keanu Taylor) were trapped. But the next moment, he was whacked over the head with a brick by Ben! As Phil slumped to the floor unconscious, Ben made a phonecall and appeared to be making his own deal with the baddies. "You and me, we can sort this!" said Ben, who has SECRET plans to ruin his hated dad. When Phil awoke, there was no sign of Ben. However, he spotted Danny's dodgy associate Midge (Tom Colley) lurking about and a brutal fight broke out between the men! "A few years ago, you wouldn't have needed to sneak-up on me, old man" taunted Midge. "Old man? I ain't too old to give you a kicking!" responded Phil before doing what he does best and letting his fists and feet do the talking. It was classic Phil Mitchell unleashed and Midge was soon left feeling a LOT worse for wear... Meanwhile, Louise and Keanu (Danny Walters) were finally able to break out of the storage container. And good thing too, because not only did Keanu have a panic attack while locked-up, he was about to make a BIG confession to Louise - about his previous secret affair with Louise's stepmum, Sharon!

Phil didn't see Ben attack him (Ben quickly claimed Danny and Midge must have been behind the attack) but he made it clear: "Someone is trying to turn me over. And I'm going to make 'em pay..."
