With the money problem Arantxa Sanchez Vicario has had maybe we'll hear about a comeback from her next.....

I hadn't heard about the controversy around Kris Mochrie (Victoria's rapist)! How insensitive of Emmerdale to cast someone with that background in such a role! As for the spoiler, I guess it could be a sort of compensation for Jai after Eliza left with Megan.....

Asan N'Jie, who played Ellis Chapman, has been sacked after a fight with Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas at an awards ceremony on Monday. https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-49659984

Congratulations to Bianca! I wonder if Serena will ever get number 24 now. It seems like there's a mental barrier for her now, and she's not getting any younger. She's obviously still good enough to be competitive but it won't get any easier....
