Howdy folks! As the sun goes away and the cold Autumn winds start to blow over the UK, there’s lots going on in Walford. But as that chill comes through your window, rattling at your doors, here’s something to smile about…

Sharon Watts is home next week, baby! The Queen of Walford back, where she belongs!

.Of course, while Sharon’s been helping Michelle in Australia, all sorts has been happening at home! She has no idea about Joel‘s incel behaviour yet or Ross and sister Vicki‘s struggles with their son! She also has no idea, unless someone’s told her, that Barney Mitchell, her ex Teddy‘s son, is actually her nephew! And to top it all off, Zoe Slater is running around Walford – a haunting reminder of her awful past!

Elsewhere, in Walford, a few new faces are charming some local lads! Oscar may be in with the lovely Jasmine, while Peter is smitten with stranger Demi. But will he get caught out – well, if Penny‘s police skills are anything like her father’s, maybe not – and if he is, imagine Lauren‘s revenge…

And Stacey, fed up of life in Walford (and who can blame her really?) makes plans to jet off and join brother Sean in South America. Thrilled Stacey is almost packing her bags – but, spare a thought for poor Jean, who’s mortified that no one’s discussed it with her!

Whew! Talk about drama! And there’s lots more to come!

And while we’re here, congratulations to the cast and crew for their win at the National Television Awards last week, where they took home the trophy for Best Serial Drama for the first year since 2023! Much deserved!

And of course, a special mention to the always incredible Steve McFadden, who picked up the gong for Best Dramatic Performance in a Serial Drama! Always a master at his craft, and a legend on set, it’s much deserved! Congrats Mr. McFadden!

See you next time! Regards,

The Curator
