Members Forever8 Posted October 6, 2021 Members Share Posted October 6, 2021 I suddenly remembered Kelle Bryan (Martine Deveraux) Hollyoaks was in the popular UK pop group Eternal in the early 90's. I've been listening a lot of their songs since last year. The group even had a hit or two that reached overseas to the U.S. too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dion Posted October 10, 2021 Members Share Posted October 10, 2021 Delta Goodrem is interesting because there was that whole period where Neighbours devoted itself to promoting Delta's debut album. I'm not complaining though, it worked for Delta and Neighbours and the songs were good Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Forever8 Posted October 12, 2021 Members Share Posted October 12, 2021 With Classic episodes of Emmerdale showing on ITV3 for the past few years now. I'm constantly reminded on Twitter that Malandra Burrows who played the long-running Kathy Bates Merrick Tate Glover Brookman also became a recording artist whose biggest hit "Just This Side of Love" reached # 11 on the UK Singles Chart. She even performed it on Emmerdale in this clip below. As well as played in the scene with her character in the helicopter with her new groom Chris Tate in the following year too.
