I don’t think any of us have found it easy to accurately describe how much Steve meant to us. How much he’ll be missed, or the decades of hilarious memories he gave us. To me, he was a deep thinker, music lover, naughty, raconteur, friend. He was also loved by all who knew him x

Reading through all your responses to last nights episode is very emotional indeed. Thank you. To all parents who have lost a child and got in touch, as parents ourselves, we only felt a fraction of your pain and loss and our hearts are with you. x.

After 25 years at @emmerdale without a single day off, I have succumbed to the dreaded ‘rona. I have been ridiculously careful but tomorrow will be be the first time in a quarter of a century. Now THAT pisses me off. Fortunate to have good health though and thankful. Love to all.

Wow!!.People still being pretty damned cruel and personal towards my dear friend @lucyparge. IT’S A STORY. Lucy has selflessly played this story for all it’s worth, knowing she/Chas would be disrespected and insulted on social media, and STILL hit all the beats. Amazing actress.x.

Apologies for the brutal honesty and I know this is going to upset quite a lot of people, but I received a card earlier informing me that it is in fact me who is the best dad in the world. Commiserations to all the runners up on what must now be a very difficult day. x.

I usually use twitter for silliness or to flog my films, but I woke up this morning to literally hundreds of really lovely, thoughtful, encouraging tweets for the last week of Emmerdale. Thank you to Karen and Jo for writing and @lucyparge for being just ace. Thanks for watching.

Rest in peace Barbara Windsor. @Reallisariley introduced me to her twenty odd years ago. She said “It’s at this time of year and in this kind of weather that I always think thank f*** I’m not in Emmerdale”. Anyway, she was always lovely and I was always starstruck. x

A sports car roared up to the front of ITV Studios on my first day. Music pumping, the doors opened and out came Paula Tilbrook in a headscarf. The matriarch of Emmerdale. Strict, professional and very very funny. Loved reading this. x.

I couldn’t find my glasses so I then went to look for my glasses to help me find them. I’m that much of an idiot. The saga ended with finding them on my head. Surely that’s some standard definition of a functioning imbecile.

This horrific excuse for a human being stabbed 16 cats and got 2.5 years in jail. Typical of some big males chasing, stabbing, snaring, caging or shooting fellow animals on this earth, usually much smaller than them, to be subdued, terrified or belittled before death. Bastard.
