BIG BROTHER - Kimberly did fall pregnant - and sadly lost her baby

According to the Daily Star, Big Brother's Kimberly Kisselovich has lost her and Steven's unborn baby. 

Kimberly left the Big Brother house after becoming unwell, to which she believed to be an infection, but she has exclusively revealed to the Daily Star that it's been confirmed that she suffered an ectopic pregnancy. 

Kimberly told the paper:

“In the past 24 hours I’ve had a diagnosis from the doctor and he’s sure that I have had an ectopic pregnancy. That’s why I had so much pain in my pelvic area which I thought was an infection. The doctor said that with the time frame it was definitely Steven’s. I’m really concerned. Steven’s speaking to all the doctors – he’s really upset.”

Before her diagnosis - Kimberly joked around with a fake baby bump

The news comes after Kimberly jokingly wore a fake baby bump during an interview with Emma Willis on BBOTS and stated in several interviews that she thought the pregnancy rumours were quite funny - hence taking the mickey, so this must have come as quite a shock to the 23-year-old model. 

Maybe it was a blessing in disguise that Steven was evicted from the house last Friday, as, despite only knowing each other a short time and having this whirlwind BB romance, the news must be heartbreaking for them both.

After being a tad unsure whether their romance was for real at the beginning - it looks as though Steven and Kimberly do deeply care for each other, so I hope it works out and they do find happiness together.

Sending Kim and Steven lots of well wishes!

Sad news as Benidorm actor loses cancer battle

Today is a sad day for Benidorm fans, as it has been announced that Kenny Ireland has died, aged 68.

Kenny made plenty of fans laugh, playing swinger Donald Stewart in the Spanish-set comedy, alongside Janine Duvitski, who plays his on-screen wife, Jacqueline.

The character of Donald was written out of the show in June last year, while Kenny concentrated on his treatment.

A spokesperson for ITV said: 

"We are terribly saddened to hear that Kenny Ireland has passed away, our thoughts are with his family at this time. He was a much loved actor, not only by the cast and crew on Benidorm but by the millions of fans out there. He appeared as Donald Stewart in Benidorm from the first episode and helped play a huge part in its success. He will be greatly missed."

EASTENDERS - Shock affair alert!

Most EastEnders fans I speak to want to see Phil Mitchell and Shirley Carter back together.

Well, we all may soon be getting our wish, as the exes embark on a secret affair...

Shirley recently confessed her love for Phil, but the Mitchell hard man will soon give in to temptation, which ends up in a full blown affair behind his fiancee Sharon Rickman's back, according to Digital Spy.

Phil and Shirl' have always been a match made, and are even keeping quiet about each others secrets. Phil knows that Shirley's 'brother' Mick is actually her son, while Shirley is keeping mum about the fact that Phil set up the attack on The Albert, which saw Sharon brutally attacked.

Phil and Shirley are set to embark on an affair

The pair don't realise, though, that Sharon actually knows the truth about her attack and is putting a plan of revenge into action against Phil.

I hope that Shirl' finds out about Sharon's plan, which includes help from Phil's old con-solicitor Marcus Christie, and gets one over on her. I also hope that this will see the start of Phil and Shirley reuniting...which will probably then be ruined by the return of Phil's son, Ben, who has been released from prison for accidentally killing Shirl's best pal, Heather Trott.

If you can't already tell, I'm a massive 'Phil hearts Shirley' fan!

Are you?

EASTENDERS release new trailer for Mick's big week...

EastEnders have released a brand spanking new trailer for the run up to a massive week for Mick Carter.

As I said earlier in the week, Mick will be arrested for kerb crawling, after spying on his pal Ian Beale and prostitute Rainie Cross.

Of course, Mick is innocent - but that doesn't stop him getting into a bit of strife!

The new trailer, which can be seen here, shows Danny Dyer's character take centre stage, as he prepares to face his fears at a swimming gala and then being caught up in Rainie and Ian's drama.

The rest of the Carter clan wait for Mick to do his swim...

Mick's family are proud as punch as he prepares to do his lap of the pool, despite his fear of water, after nearly drowning as a child.

Even though his sister (and secret mother!) Shirley offers him a way out of the gala, Mick s determined to follow it through and not let his family down...

Will he do it?

And how will the Carter's react to what's about to come next?

HOLLYOAKS POSSIBLE SPOILER - Maxine reveals the truth

Hollyoaks has aired the moment when Maxine finally reveals to the village that her partner, Patrick, has been beating her. 

On tonight's E4 first look, we saw Maxine marry Patrick having believed his pleas that he will get help with his violent ways. But during the wedding reception in The Dog, Patrick still bullied Maxine, until she was finally pushed to the brink, where she stood up to leave, telling her new husband that she wasn't going to stand by him after all. 

                         

It was then, with Patrick trying to stop her from leaving, that he ripped Maxine's wedding dress, revealing her shocking bruises. 

With Dirk asking what happened, Maxine finally muttered: "It's Patrick - Patrick beats me." 

                         

The episode was beautifully acted. 

Tomorrow's E4 first look will pick up where tonight's left off, but the synopsis reveals that 'Patrick tries to regain control, with shocking consequences' - I wonder if this is anything to do with the car crash scene we saw at the end of the Six Weeks of Summer trailer? 

The synopsis also teases 'who do they (the Hollyoaks residents) believe'. We know that Patrick has already pulled the wool over Nancy's eyes, saying that Maxine beats him, so will he regain his control? 

What did you all think of tonight's episode? 

HOLLYOAKS - Ste threatens to kill Finn

Kieron Richardson has revealed more details in Ste's revenge on Finn O'Connor for raping John Paul. 

In Hollyoaks' Six Weeks of Summer trailer, we saw Finn tied up in a disused warehouse after Ste kidnaps him. 

Ste reacts after overhearing John Paul and Finn arguing, and subsequently realising that Finn was JP's attacker. After kidnapping the evil teen, Ste douses Finn in petrol and threatens to kill him unless he confesses his crime. 

                                                 

Telling All About Soap, Keiron says that he believes that Ste's threats are genuine, especially as he has such strong feelings for John Paul, saying:

"He genuinely loves John Paul and so he would definitely kill Finn if he thought he was responsible for doing this dreadful thing to him."

It has also been revealed that Ste will end up in hospital after his cocaine habit spirals once more and he then goes on to share a kiss with George at a party, meaning that his relationship with JP may not be solid for long... 

There's another twist in the tale, however, the morning after the party, when Peri Lomax tells Ste that he had someone with him, in his room, the night before. But George confirms that it wasn't him. 

Do Ste and JP belong together? Will Ste ever get his drug habit under control? And who is the mystery person who ends up sharing Ste's bed? 

As always in Hollyoaks... Only time will tell! 

EASTENDERS - He's alive! (Although, we'd already kinda guessed!)

EastEnders bosses have confirmed the return of Nick Cotton. 

Last night we saw Carol make the startling discovery that Nick was alive and well, when she answered Charlie's phone, and - well - Nick was on the other end! 

She then stormed outside to ask Charlie when he planned on telling Dot that her beloved (god know why!) son was still alive and kicking... 

John Altman has spoken of his exciting return, saying:

"After a five-year break, I'm very pleased and much looking forward to returning to EastEnders. With the promise of some hard-hitting and gritty storylines, I'm sure the residents of Albert Square will be none too pleased to see Nick Cotton back on the streets of Walford. 

I'm also looking forward to working alongside Declan Bennett and Pauline McLynn. And of course being reunited and working once again with my 'dear old Ma', the wonderful June Brown."

Why did Nick fake his own death and is Charlie really his son? 

Are you excited for Nick's return? 

EASTENDERS - First pictures of Kat and Alfie's twins

Here are the first pictures of Kat and Alfie Moon with their twin boys, rumoured to be named Bert and Ernie! 

EastEnders bosses have released the pictures ahead of Kat giving birth in the soap next week. 

The drama begins when Jean Slater returns to Albert Square with a plan to get her daughter, Stacey, released from prison - where she's currently serving time for killing Archie Mitchell. 

As Jean makes a visit to the Sqaure, she collapses and is rushed to hospital - where Stacey also pays her a visit. Realising that her family need her, Stavey begins to contemplate Jean's plan... But all thoughts are halted when Kat's waters break! 

As Stacey is taken back to prison by the guards, Alfie, Mo, Tommy and Lily soon arrive for the twins, arrival. 

What does the future hold for the Moon/Slater clan? 

EASTENDERS - Mick's in a pickle!

Mick Carter sees himself being carted off by the Old Bill next week in EastEnders, as his curiosity gets the better of him, landing him in hot water!

When Rainie Cross returns to blackmail Ian for yet more money, to keep quiet about him paying her for sex on the night Lucy was murdered, Mick accidentally stumbles across their meeting.

Uh-oh, Mick's in trouble!

Pulling up in a car behind Ian and Rainie's heated argument, Mick watches on as the pair bicker...but when Ian nervously speeds off, and the police turn the corner, it's the Carter man who gets arrested for kerb crawling!

Will the police believe Mick's innocence?

As Rainie refuses to back up Mick's innocent pleas and Ian nowhere to be found, will Mick end up in deep trouble?

BIG BROTHER - We have the power!

Big Brother has finally given us the Power!

Over the weekend, we, the Great British public, decided to make Ashleigh immune from nomination - which left our housemates deciding to put Pav, Zoe and Chris up for this weeks eviction. I wonder if we'll get the power to save one and put someone else up in their place? If so, I think we'll save Zoe...possibly Chris, and I don't know who would go up in his/her place... It's getting to that stage, where I just don't know who I want out next. Except Pav.

I kind of felt a bit sorry for the lad on Friday. It's never nice to feel left out, but something just tells me he's got a massive plan (of the gaming type!) and I never really warm to housemates who go in with an agenda like this, as such. I know it's a game, and kudos to those who play it right. But the real winners are always those who are just 'themselves'. That's how I'd be if I were a housemate, anyway.

Also, over the weekend, I felt so much more warmed to Helen. During her chat with little Chris, when she said she'd been on a journey and wanted to change - and not go back to the person she was before entering the house. Chris seemed genuinely moved and touched, too. He definitely has a soft spot for Helen and I hope they become genuine friends. If Helen nominated Chris this week, I'll be a little disappointed, but I don't think she would have done that.

Ashleigh's popularity with both the public and the housemates seems to be growing, too. Especially since her 'Grandma' Danielle has left. It tickled me when Helen called her this! I also hope that Ash and Ashleigh are beginning to build a proper friendship, but part of me, like how I feel about Mark, doesn't trust the Northern Irish lass 100%.

With that, we'll have to wait and see what decision BB wants us to make next...

What would you do to shake the house up a little?

Maxine arrives at the airport

Looking a million dollars in tonight's E4 Hollyoaks, Maxine is dropped at the airport ready to fly to America to her sister, Mitzeee. (Yes, that's THREE eee's on purpose - we all remember MitzEEE, right?!)

After gaining help from her friends, Dennis and Blessing - Maxne got the funds she needed to make her break, scared for herself and her unborn baby, if she was to stay with the bully headteacher.

Fans have been told, though, to expect one last twist in this tale.

Does Maxine get away?

The character of Amber Sharpe is returning to Hollyoaks for a brief stint, with the role recast.

Actress Lauren Gabrielle-Thomas, who starred as Aleesha Dillon in Waterloo Road will be playing the part, who is the mother of Finn O'Connor's daughter, Bella, who will also be returning for the three-episode run.

The new Amber Sharpe

We last saw little Bella on screen a few months ago, as Finn tracked her down, but Amber was not seen. Finn then decided not to pursue being in his daughter's life.

The net will soon close in on Finn

Will Amber and Bella's return be part of Finn's downfall, as we've been promised that he will soon face his comeuppance for raping his teacher, John Paul McQueen. We will also see the evil teen strike again, as he attempts to attack Nancy Osborne.

BIG BROTHER - You know what Friday means...

This week saw the return of the Power. And we saw the first power alliance, where Ashleigh chose Chris and Mark to join her in making the nomination decisions for the week - where they had chosen Steven and Ash at my last post.

I was right in my thought that BB had a twist up his sleeve, as after listening to the advice of former housemates Matthew, Danielle and Bianca, chose Pav and Zoe to face the public vote, too. I, to be honest, can't see how the three ex-housemates feel so, so strongly about Pav and Zoe being sneaky and fake... I can see why they could have a sneaky game-plan (Pav more so...) but not to the extent the housemates were lead to believe.

The twist in the tale came when BB offered the nommed housemates to save one of themselves (Ash...) and put up one of the power alliance (Ashleigh...)

So tonight, Asheigh, Steven, Pav and Zoe each face eviction - and where I previously said that I think Steven will leave, I'm now wondering if it could be Pav. I'd actually rather it be him, too, above any of the others...

I've seen a new side to Ashleigh this week, and felt that her chat with Ash was really genuine on both parts. She's not my favourite person in the house, but my opinion of her has changed for the better. Steven has calmed down a lot since Kimberly left and I think he just wants to get to the final now (although I don't see him getting there in all honesty.)

The person I want to win is still undecided - part of me hasn't really ever trusted Mark 100%, as popular as he seems with viewers, and even though I may get a few negative digs saying this, I wouldn't actually mind Helen winning it at the moment. Yes, she's had her moments of being nasty - but as I've previously said, she admits her wrong doings and apologises for them. We all say things we don't mean in the heat of the moment and that's just people being human.

Although, as it's Big Brother, my opinion will no doubt change again before the final!

Who do you want to leave tonight?

And have you picked your winner yet?

HOLLYOAKS - Whatever next...

If I write anything Hollyoaks related, then I'm always afraid I could be writing all day. 

This soap gives us so much to dwell on in just a half hour episode, and pops in surprise after surprise, and that's what makes it great. 

This week has been no different... We've seen Freddie revealed as Fraser's murderer, to then go on and set his own brother up, in the hope of stealing Lindsey (and her baby, who could be Joe's or Freddie's!) With Sandy soon to leave the village - and both Joe and Freddie staying - how will this end?

Cindy's bi-polar story is continuing to grow from strength to strength - the way Rhys has been brought back as part of it has been clever writing. Very clever, indeed. Steph Waring is giving a touching performance, but also keeping a touch of humour, in what is a very serious subject. I can't wait to to see how it develops. 

Rhys is a figment of Cindy's imagination as part of her bi-polar disorder...

You may have seen the Hollyoaks Six Weeks of Summer trailer. If you haven't - you must see it! 

Will Maxine go ahead and marry evil Patrick? Nikki Sanderson has also been fabulous during this plot. Seeing Maxine give Dennis and Blessing a sign for when Patrick leaves the house really touched on how some people must live when they have an abusive partner. I think Dennis needs to inform Dodger about what's really going on - it's him and Maxine who belong together... 

Although, if you watched the trailer right until the end, you would have seen my favourite nutter, Sienna, plant a kiss on her sleeping twin, Dodger's lips. What's that all about? 

Sienna is clearly a very messed up girl - and it's clearly all about what happened to her during her childhood with Patrick. I've got a feeling we're going to learn a very dark story about what happened to Sienna... 

What will we discover about Sienna's childhood with Patrick?

Tony and Sinead's affair is also a strange one. I loved Esther's line of 'It's like Miley Cyrus and Gary Barlow. You'd be Miley Barlow!' after she caught the pair in a clinch. 

I say it's strange, though, because the dynamic between the two really seems to work in a way I didn't think it would. I actually want to see them make a go of it...

We've also got the aftermath of John Paul revealing his rapist to Ste - what will Ste do to Finn, in revenge?

Of course, it's also only a matter of time before Peri finds outs the truth about Leela and Cameron being her real parents. That will blow up in everyone's faces! 

Talking of blow - did you notice the car smash in the trailer?

Kieron Richardson, who plays Ste, promised that there would be a stunt that was just as good as the bus crash... is this it? And who is under that car rubble?

Come on Hollyoaks, bring on Summer!

EASTENDERS - Changing persons!

By changing persons - I should mean personalities.

We've learnt quite a lot in the two EastEnders episodes so far this week, and some revolve around 'Who killed Lucy Beale' themes while others are things we probably shouldn't care about, but have noticed anyway.

Firstly - as the 'changing persons' theme runs around Patrick Truman - can I just add my congratulations to how fabulous Rudolph Walker's acting has been this week. He played out having Patrick's stroke beautifully heartbreaking and must have touched everyone watching. It actually just went to show just how underused Rudolph has been of late on the show.

Rudoplh Walker made a moving performance as Patrick

Patrick, as we know, found out all about Ian's rendezvous (it's the politest way I could describe it!) with Rainie. This is the first 'changing person.'

Ian showed a glimmer of Phil Mitchell in him, as he shoved Rainie against a wall and threatened her, quite menacingly (for Ian Beale's standards) and it looked as though EastEnders' resident prostitute was quite shaken up.

This could be an important clue towards Lucy's murder. We've never seen Ian lose it quite like that before (remember, this is the man who's been scared of a whole heap of both men and women for the entire time we've known him onscreen!)

So, could Ian have gotten so raged with his daughter on the night she died that he accidentally killed her?

My money (despite me telling all and sundry that I wasn't going to guess until the end of the year!) is that Peter should be the number one suspect so far. I don't know why. It's just the incline I'm getting.

The second 'changing person' was the shock return of Anthony Truman. He had the same face (in fact, he hasn't aged one bit!) but the way he callously left his fad, chucking money at poor Denise, as 'help' to care for his was not in character of the kind doctor we once knew.
Anthony's scenes with Kat also cringed me out a little. It was as though they were still having a secret love affair. I just found it very uncomfortable viewing and not endearing in the slightest.

Anthony looked heartless as he left his dad

Patrick's recovery, we've been told, will be a very slow process. It's horrid to watch him struggle - trying to tell Denise the truth about Ian - who's thrilled, deep down, that Patrick has lost the ability to speak, as it keeps his secret. For now...

There were also rumours yesterday that last week's episode of Lucy's phone and purse being dumped has been taken off BBC iPlayer, as it showed (apparently) the so-called murderer.

An avid viewer has revealed the face in the phone reflection to be JAY...

Now, call me cynical, but I don't think the Enders' bosses would be so slap-dash that they'd make such a silly mistake. If anyone was filmed dumping the phone and purse, it would, surely, be a runner... and not one of the actors - as even they don't know the culprit.

Have your opinions on Who Killed Lucy changed?

And what do you think of Patrick's storyline?

BIG BROTHER - Nominations so far...

So, the new Power Housemate, Ashleigh, had to choose an ally yesterday - and Chris became her right-hand man. Together, they had to pick the first person to face eviction this week...

Stand up, Steven!

There was no real surprise, really, that Steven was chosen, as Ashleigh has the housemates that she wants to put up decided in her mind already, I'm sure.

Ashleigh and Chris then had to expand their harem of power by adding a third wheel, and they chose Mark, which slightly took me by surprise, as Mark is friendly with some of those who Ashleigh doesn't like too well, I assumed they would want Christopher in alliance with them.

This morning, it has been announced that the second person chosen to face the public vote is - surprise, surprise - Ash!

I'm guessing that one more housemate will be chosen for eviction, putting three up on the block. Who that will be remains a mystery, but I would already put money on Steven being evicted come Friday.

That is, unless, Big Brother has another sneaky twist up his sleeve...

BIG BROTHER - Ashleigh has the power!

So yesterday, BB viewers were asked who they'd like to see have the Power - and they chose Ashleigh. Big Brother listened and now, the Northern Irish lass has full control!

What will she do?

Ashleigh has the Power!

Housemates have been speculating and one hot-topic was Helen's Golden Final pass being revoked.

Helen was asked by Big Brother how she would feel should someone take the pass away from her, causing Mark and co to wonder why. Helen commented that she wouldn't mind - and even if she went on Friday - it wouldn't bother her. This conversation happened while Ashleigh the Almighty sat listening intently.

The housemates, as far as I'm aware, do not know who the Power Housemate is.

Mark doesn't think Helen would be voted out by the public...and Helen has admitted that she would like to experience an eviction.

Scouser Mark also expressed his thoughts that he assumed Steven would be the one to go out of any other housemate, to which Steven replied 'Oh thanks, Mark!' Much to Ash's entertainment!

If Ashleigh has the opportunity to revoke Helen's pass, I reckon she might, after she and Chris had a Helen shaped discussion to which they decided that she 'doesn't deserve to be here.'

I wonder if Ashleigh will make this week's nom decision, and what else is in store this week?

BIG BROTHER - After Armageddon

Friday night's evictions promised fireworks and I guess that we weren't let down, as Biannca (unsurprisingly, maybe?) was the first to be booted out - where she met Emma on the stage, who looked slightly concerned at the possibility of dong her first topless interview! Of course it wasn't Emma who flashed her bits - it was Biannca - again!

The shocker for me came when Zoe and Pav - now fully-fledged housemates - chose Danielle as the housemate that they wanted to evict - as much as it made sense afterwards, at the time I was genuinely surprised. Of course, their first option - Kimberly - was in hospital and we were told on Saturday that she would not be returning to the house.

Was you shocked to see Danielle go?

Steven seems fine with this - as he spoke to her in hospital, and she told him she was backing him and Helen to win - but I think, had she not been unwell and that if Pav and Zoe had chosen to evict Kim, Steven would have walked, too...

The house seems calmer after the Armageddon craze - which I still believe could have been a little harder on the housemates - and I think that normal nominations have resumed - meaning that the housemates would have nominated either yesterday or will make their choices today. It'll be interesting to see who picks who - and I'm thinking that quite a number of housemates could be up this week, due to the wide variety of nominations that I'm expecting.

Who do you want to be up this week?

Will you miss Kimberly?

But, sadly, Patsy's departure will also mean that her youngest on-screen children, Tiffany and Morgan, will be leaving too.

Bye Bye Bianca!

EastEnders bosses confirmed yesterday that Maisie Smith and Devon Hicks would be going, albeit regretfully - they thought that this was the only option as Bianca would never leave her two smallest kids behind.

Bianca, Tiffany and Morgan's exit story is still to be revealed, but as it's also been confirmed that B's on/off boyfriend Terry Spraggan and his children Rosie and TJ are also set to leave, maybe the six will go off and live elsewhere - happily ever after, in Soapland, for once!

Bianca's eldest son Liam and step-daughter Whitney will remain in Albert Square, living with their nan, Carol and auntie Sonia, no doubt.

The trio have reportedly already filmed their final scenes, so will be leaving at the end of this summer.

The Singer Takes It All!

Alan Carr is set to host a brand new singing competition on Channel 4, called The Singer Takes It All!

This is an interactive tongue-in-cheek talent show, where viewers will be able to decide who wins and who gets chucked (literally!) off a moving (yes, moving!) stage by voting via an App.

Alan Carr shows off his stage skills! 

Fan favorites will move forward, into the Gold Zone, and be eligible to win a cash prize, but if too many 'miss' votes are cast - that singer will be shunted off the back of the stage.

While there are no judges, it is expected that celebrity guests will take part and give advice to the acts.

Chatty Man, Alan Carr, has expressed his excitement at being the show's host, saying:

"I've never been involved in anything ground breaking before!" he joked. "This app makes people at home the judge and jury, and I love that aspect of it. The viewers get to decide whether the singer wins or disappears through the flaps to a life of misery. If you don't get the app, you don't have any influence on what happens on the show. Of course, you could try shouting at the telly instead, but it won't make a blind bit of difference!"

The Singer Takes It All app is available now on iOS and will be ready for Android shortly, with the app currently telling fans that the first live show will be on the 1st August.

Will you be tuning in or downloading the app?

BIG BROTHER - It's eviction night, for two...

It's Friday, which means that it's eviction time later on in Big Brother's world.

As we already know, all of our original housemates are up for the chop, bar Helen, who's got her Golden Ticket to the final. We also know that it's the three new housemates who will choose the evictee.
Unbeknownst to the newbies - they, too, are up for the chop with us public people deciding which one needs to go.

Who do you think the newbies will choose to evict, and which newbie do you want out?

I'm still unsure about who Biannca, Zoe and Pav will choose to leave - their minds seem to change with each new conversation that they have!

Who will the newbies decide to kick out - and how will they react when
they realise that one of them will be booted out, too?

Biannca certainly doesn't seem over keen on Kimberly, and Zoe has mentioned that she hasn't really spoken much to Kim either...so it could be her.
Steven's name has been thrown into the mix, but I think that the girls changed their minds about him last night, while Pav keeps on wanting to evict who he thinks us, the public, want out. If he goes by crowd reaction, it could be anyone, as the boos and cheers change from week to week.
It would be interesting to split Kim and Steven up. But if she goes, he won't cope with not knowing what she's up to, so I think he'd walk. If he goes, on the other hand, she could flourish and, maybe, dare I say, enjoy herself a bit more...

I'd also imagine that Biannca has the hump with Winston a tad, too, after he revealed (and she overheard) that she wasn't his type. It was funny to see her look so disgruntled! But I don't think she's that upset to want to evict him over it!

Hopefully they won't make a bad decision, and I'd like to see them get rid of someone we won't really miss too much.

Will Steven be evicted by Zoe, Pav and Biannca - and become an
Armageddon Week victim?

As for the newbie who I'd like to see leave, I really don't know.

Zoe has settled well and seems like a nice girl, who would continue to gel with most of the housemates.

My gut says Biannca, just because she makes me cringe when watching her... but part of me wants her to stay, especially as she speaks before thinking and makes Danielle wince each time she does so!

Pav also seems like a character who would gel well with most housemates, but unlike Zoe, I can't see him causing any kind of strife or even sticking up for himself much. We already have a nice, quiet type of guy in the shape of little Chris, so do we really need another?

In that case, I think maybe Pav should be the one I want to see leave.

I'm also wondering if the Power will return to the house tonight, in the old-fashioned way of 'one power housemate'?

I hope so, and I think it'll be quite interesting to see Danielle with that power. Now, I'm not her biggest fan, but I think she's greatly entertaining with her Diary Room chats, she's so paranoid when the house finds out something new about her (hence going on and on and on about the Webcam Girls programme!) and I also don't think she can make a decision on her own very well at all. I could imagine her trying to come down on the house like a ton of bricks - but then it backfiring and leaving her sinking in the swimming pool. Again!

I'm looking forward to tonight's show... It'll hopefully be more entertaining than poor Marlon's damp squib of an eviction!

EASTENDERS - Who's the mystery dumper?

Last night's EastEnders threw me right at the end.

We have seen Billy Mitchell come into the fray, after it was revealed that he argued with Lucy on the night of her murder. Now, I don't believe for one moment Billy's the murderer. For one, it's too early to reveal possible candidates and secondly - it's Billy. As said in the episode - he's done some bad things, he's a bit of a plonker, but he's no murderer.

One interesting thing is the photo's which Billy threw away after Pam Coker found them under his fridge. Billy said that they belonged to Peter - I think this is a lie - so are they Billy's and why did he have them?

The biggest thing, mind you, to come out of last night's show was what I believe to be Lucy's phone and purse... dumped in a hole and covered in soil. Who did that?

More twists in the case of Lucy's murder!

It couldn't have been Billy, surely, as he was with Lola, having just been unofficially forgiven by Ian for lying to the police about arguing with Lucy on the night she was killed.

Was there a reflection in the phone as the camera filmed - if there was - my eagle eyes saw someone with shoulder length hair... Abi Branning?

I keep saying it's too early to make a guess...  But who can help themselves?

The new, vicious police detective has said that the killer should be feeling scared and the nets closing in, so it must be someone who knows that Jake is to be released, and that the police focus is shifting elsewhere... Someone in the Beale clan, maybe? Someone close to the Beale's? Or someone who has overheard a whisper and panicked?

With Ben Mitchell soon to make a return, maybe the forum fans are right and it's him?

What do you all think?

HOLLYOAKS - Fraser's killer revealed today!

Today is the day Hollyoaksers!

The day we find out who killed Fraser Black...

Who killed Fraser, do you think?

At 4pm, Hollyoaks' Snapchat will reveal a picture of the killer - but if you want to wait, you can see for yourself on E4 at 7pm on tonight's first look - or Monday at 6.30pm on Channel 4 - but no one's gong to do that, right?

The Hollyoaks team have kindly asked that anyone who DOES check Snapchat out, DOES NOT reveal the identity of the killer on social media, so as to not spoil the reveal for anyone who wants to watch it on air.

Will you be downloading Snapchat, just for the reveal?

We have been told (by Holier Than Thou cop Sonny Valentine) that either Sandy, Joe or Freddie Roscoe is the culprit. But are they really, or is it a red herring?

Who do you guys think it is, and will you be Snapchatting at 4pm to find out?

EASTENDERS - Meet the new Mitchell

Since finding out that Ben Mitchell has been released from prison for killing our Hev, it's begged the question as to just when he'll be returning to EastEnders.

That question seems to be very soon, as this new picture shows the new face of Phil Mitchell's wayward son.

Harry Reid with Steve McFadden, as Ben and Phil Mitchell

Ben is to be played by Harry Reid, and it's expected that he will bring with him more than enough drama - especially for Lola Pearce, who is mum to Ben's daughter Lexi, and Phil's ex, Shirley Carter, who was Hev's best friend. We already know that Jay Brown has been in contact with Ben since his release, but no one else on the Square knows of his whereabouts. 

Digital Spy have reported Harry Reid as saying:

"I'm very excited to be joining EastEnders - not only because it's a great show but also to be playing Ben, a character that is so renowned and from such an iconic family. I'm looking forward to getting started and working closely with the legendary Steve McFadden. I can't wait to become a fully-fledged Mitchell."

EastEnders' executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins has also spoken of his excitement at Ben's reappearance:

"Ben's half-Beale and half-Mitchell, and Harry perfectly encapsulates both the Mitchell danger and Beale heart that make Ben such a complex character. Ben's return to the Square is going to have big repercussions for his family, his friends - and his enemies. Plus a few residents he hasn't even met yet..."

There have also been whispers among forum fans that Ben could be Lucy Beale's murderer... 

Whatever happens, I'm sure it'll bring plenty of Mitchell mayhem!
