Emmerdale star teases soap crossover with real-life Coronation Street siblings
Emmerdale actress Amelia Flanagan addressed whether it's possible her character will feature in scenes with her real-life Coronation Street brother and sister amid a crossover There's a soap crossover on the way, and one Emmerdale star is hopeful it will mean she gets to team up with her real-life Coronation Street siblings. Amelia Flanagan spoke exclusively to The Mirror about her excitement for the big soap twist, confirmed by ITV recently. With Amelia, who plays April Windsor on the soap, having siblings on Corrie it could well mean they feature in scenes together for the first time ever. Nothing has been revealed yet in terms of which characters from both soaps will be in the episodes, but we know at least one star from each show will interact. With talks of a public vote, it's not known who will be in those scenes. With Amelia hoping to film with her her fellow soap stars and brother and sister William and Isabella Flanagan in what would be an epic opportunity for the talented siblings, could we see the trio on the same episode at the same time? Amelia certainly would love to see it happen, with fans also questioning whether they might get the go ahead. Amelia told us at The British Soap Awards 2025: "I think everything is still in the pipeline at the moment, so we will have to watch this space and see what happens. It would be brilliant to explore that crossover because there's three of us in the soaps. "It would be incredible, and it's very exciting. So fingers crossed we get some scenes together. It's never been done before, the crossover, and so much could happen." At the awards, Amelia burst into tears as she was awarded the trophy for Best Young Performer, a category her younger brother William was also nominated for in his role as Corrie's Joseph Brown. William gave his sister a standing ovation and applauded her when the result came in. In a sweet moment she supported him right back, mentioning him in her winners speech. Sobbing as she clutched the award, she told the audience: "This means everything. I just want to say, my little brother who I love so much." Amelia went on to thank everyone at Emmerdale, before concluding with tears in her eyes: "Thank you so much, this means the world to me." The siblings later hung out together and with their co-stars at the afterparty, also joined by their parents. Amelia also spoke to us about what's ahead for her character after a huge year on the show. With a return on the cards for character Dylan Penders, Amelia told us: "April has had an incredibly tough year with what she has been through, with the pregnancy and the homelessness storyline. April and Dylan didn't leave things on the best terms, but I think what is important now is that he's back. "Who knows what will happen. It will be great to explore that relationship further, I think fans want to see that which is great." Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX, with an hour-long episode on Thursdays.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Luca Toolan attended the British Soap awards in London on Thursday Credit: Getty 4 The actor poked fun at ITV's transmission issues Credit: Getty Like many people trying to tune in to the big night, Luca noticed the transmission on ITVX was not working and used the opportunity to poke fun at Corrie's competitors. The programme was delayed by seven minutes with just a message from the broadcaster, that read "we're sorry for the disruption," on top of a black screen. Luca took a photo of a screen showing the error message and posted it to his Instagram stories. "Oh no what a shame, now nobody can see me and all of Corrie win all of the awards!" he wrote. But Luca was later forced to eat his words, as Corrie went home empty-handed. He was even spotted by eagle-eyed ITV viewers looking disappointed after Corrie lost an award. Luca looked upset when BBC rival EastEnders scooped the award for Best Single Episode. The actor's chances of picking up an award were dashed when it was announced that EastEnders' special flashback episode about Phil Mitchell's Psychosis had won. Those watching at home claimed Luca looked "furious" with the result. One wrote: "The Mason actor didn't look too happy there." Coronation Street and Emmerdale humiliated at British Soap Awards as rival soap wins EIGHT gongs "Oh no! Luca Toolan looked gutted," a second said. Luca's character Mason was tragically killed off during the nominated episode. Shocking scenes saw Mason attacked by his brothers and flee - but the thugs chased him down. And when Dylan tried to intervene - bringing Mason's knife - it was taken from him and used to stab Mason. He stumbled into the playground and hallucinated a future where he reunited with Betsy and planned for his new life in Germany. Rushed to hospital with a weeping Betsy and Abi with him, the doctors battled to save his life. But sadly there was nothing they could do and Mason died in the hospital leaving Betsy devastated. BBC rival EastEnders swept the board after collecting a total of eight gongs in its 40th anniversary year - more than double its nearest rival, Channel 4's Hollyoaks who got three awards. 4 STRICT EMBARGO – NOT FOR USE BEFORE 19:00 GMT, 03 June 2025 – EDITORIAL USE ONLY Mandatory Credit: Photo by ITV/Shutterstock (15340023a) Host Jane McDonald on stage at the Hackney Empire for the British Soap Awards 2025 The British Soap Awards, Show, London, UK – 31 May 2025 The British Soap Awards airs this Thursday […] Credit: Shutterstock Editorial
