Lee’s dear friend Samantha Giles, who plays Bernice Blackstock in Emmerdale, joins Soap From The Box for a good old chin wag.

This chat straddles a 7 month gap - when the sensational news dropped that Sam was returning to Emmerdale Lee just had to have another catch up for all the latest gossip.  

Sam tells Lee all about life in the Dales, filming with Rob Lowe, the embarrassment of kissing scenes, dealing with fame, getting the giggles (and getting in trouble), writing her first book and being a White Witch.  

Plus there’s a phone call from Nicola Wheeler who plays Emmerdale on screen sister Nicola King - and yes, giggling ensues!
