EastEnders, Coronation Street, Hollyoaks and Neighbours have had their share of unexpected famous faces popping up.
A good or bad day for casting directors? The jury is out! Each week in soapland we’re dealt twists and turns that even us soaps reporters couldn’t predict – take global megastar Cher’s collaboration with Barry from EastEnders for example. The duet came about as part of a UKTV campaign to publicise their streaming service as ‘U’. Throughout the advert, Cher can be seen performing her 1965 hit track ‘I’ve Got You Babe’ with a number of stars from across their portfolio of shows.
Torvill and Dean in Emmerdale Another spot of ITV cross promotion saw Dancing on Ice judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean quite literally slide into the Dales, after being enlisted to help Belle Dingle propose to Tom King in 2022. Sinitta in Neighbours Sinitta was just one of a number of random stars, including Emma Bunton, Sir Michael Parkinson, Neil Morrissey and Jo Whiley, who featured in scenes when Neighbours filmed a set of special episodes in London back in 2007.
