As fans of Emmerdale will know, we’re about to see killer Cameron Murray exhuming the body of his victim Alex Moss – who was played by Kurtis Stacey – and relocating the remains…

Which he was forced to do after Declan Macey (Jason Merrells) bought the woodland area with a view to redeveloping it. So of course, fearing that workmen would unearth Alex’s corpse – and therefore identify that he was a victim of murder and maybe even point to Cameron being his killer – Cameron undertook the grisly task under cover of darkness… Read more & comment »

Vet Rhona Kirk (Zoe Henry) is of course battling with an addiction to strong prescription painkillers right now, and over the course of the last couple of weeks, her life has been going progressively downhill as she attempts to function while dealing with withdrawal symptoms and cravings.

So far, only her friend and partner in the vets’ surgery Vanessa (Michelle Hardwick) knows Rhona’s secret, and as fans will know, Vanessa has been trying to help Rhona to wean herself off the drugs by supplying her with medicines from their surgery.

But things come to a head this week as it dawns on Vanessa that Rhona may not be making as much effort to come off the tablets as she says she is… Read more & comment »

Fans of Emmerdale will of course know that irresponsible Kerry Wyatt has been shunned by pretty much everyone in the village, including her ex Andy Sugden and her daughter Amy…

And that’s because she was of course responsible for a blaze – having fallen asleep while drunk with a lit cigarette – at Andy’s cottage while she was babysitting his kids.

However, in next week’s episodes, Kerry’s back in the village, and she has shocking news for Andy (Kelvin Fletcher) when she tells him she’s pregnant! But is she really? Or it is a ploy to buy herself time to get back in his, and everyone else’s, good books? Read more & comment »

Fans of Emmerdale will know that Adam Barton (Adam Thomas) hates Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) primarily because it was his affair with Adam’s mum Moira that set into motion events that ended with the death of Adam’s dad, John Barton…

So it’s no surprise that since Moira (Natalie J Robb) officially announced that she and Cain are an item again earlier this year, Adam has struggled to see his mum with the man he blames for the death of his father.

Cameron_Murray

On Friday, I met with Emmerdale star Dominic Power during a press day at the show’s studios in Leeds, and once I’d stopped drooling and picked my bottom jaw up off the floor – he’s even prettier in real life than he is as Cameron Murray – I managed to talk to him about all things Cameron…

Including why he thinks Cameron has become a murderer, but first, I began by asking if he finds it hard to play the twisted side of Cameron’s persona; the murderous, violent Cameron.

He replied, “That’s the easy part if I’m honest. Playing the big emotions of that kind of stuff is actually a lot easier than just being, with nothing by way of actual drama… Read more & comment »

First, I asked, “Is there any chance Cain and Moira will be walking down the aisle in the near future?

Natalie replied, “Well I don’t know about it if there is, so I can’t comment on that, but I can tell you there’s some turmoil coming up for them!
