First details of Sharon’s return to EastEnders – Daily TV round-up

The first details of Sharon Rickman's return to 'EastEnders' have been revealed (Spoiler alert).

Sharon, played by Letitia Dean, will hit Albert Square to ask old flame Phil Mitchell for help after her son Dennis Jnr is kidnapped. Dennis is the child she had with Nigel Harmon's character Dennis Rickman who was killed off on New Year's Day in 2006.

In scenes filmed for the show this week, Phil, played by Steve McFadden, agrees to help and becomes embroiled in a dangerous high-speed car chase.

And it all reportedly takes place on Sharon's wedding day.

It emerged in February that Sharon was set to make her third comeback to the show.

A source told the Daily Star: “Sharon’s back and is in serious trouble. She knows that when things are this bad there is only one person she can turn to and Phil’s happy to help.”

It's so far not known why the boy is snatched, or who Sharon is set to wed.

Clare Balding has admitted that the BBC's coverage of the Jubilee celebrations 'misfired'. Balding, who presented over the weekend, made the remarks at the Hay Festival. “I think it was done with the best intentions,” she said. “I don’t think anyone intended to get it wrong. But the public reaction was that it was wrong.” [Daily Telegraph]

Meanwhile, Cheryl Cole has denied that she pushed herself centre stage at the Jubilee concert in order to get on camera. “I did not know I was on camera until I came off stage,” she said. “They stood us in line and then they brought the Queen out, but she wanted to stand next to me.” [The Sun]

'Saved By The Bell' was rubbish, according to the actor who played the lead role of Zack Morris. “It’s not a great show,” said Mark-Paul Gosselaar. “The writing is kind of hokey... it’s very much a piece of that time.” [The Sun]
