Hollyoaks star Tamara Wall collapses in supermarket as ‘hero' rushes to help
The actress, 47, is best known as Grace Black on the Channel 4 soap, and is currently at the centre of a huge storyline.
The teens of the village, as viewers know, were targeted and groomed by Grace and sibling Rex Gallagher (Jonny Labey) on behalf of DI Banks (Drew Cain), manipulating them into a life of crime.
Frankie Osborne (Isabelle Smith), Dillon Ray (Nathaniel Dass) and Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence) were among those targeted, with Grace gaslighting and manipulating them into having sex with party-goers for cash.
In the aftermath of the shocking crime – and Banks' subsequent death – his grieving widow has arrived in the village.
And in a shocking twist, it's none other than Grace's estranged (and presumed dead) sister Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix).
This week, Tamara took to Instagram to tell her followers of a personal incident away from our screens.
While shopping in a branch of Morrisons, she became unwell and collapsed.
'Dear @morrisons I need you to know how amazing your staff in Warrington are!!' she wrote.
'This guy in particularly was my actual hero when I collapsed in their store, I cannot give enough thanks to all the staff for being so unbelievable lovely!'
After sharing a picture of herself alongside the store member, he reached out to offer his own kind words.
'It was my pleasure @tamarawall13 and I'm glad your ok' he commented.'

In Flight star Stuart Martin's life off screen with Rivals actress wife
Stuart Martin is back on our screens tonight in the gritty drama In Flight but away from the world of TV, he has a happy family with an actress who starred in Rivals last year Stuart Martin is back on our screens tonight in the gritty drama In Flight. The actor, 39, stars as menacing gang leader Cormac in the new Channel 4 drama, who coerces flight attendant Jo Conran (Katherine Kelly) into using her job to repeatedly struggle drugs, in order to save the life of her son, who is currently behind bars for a murder he claims he did not commit. The TV star has actually been something of a mainstay on screens for well over a decade, having initially played guest roles in shows such as Taggart in 2009 and a handful of episodes of the now-defunct Scottish soap River City. In 2014, he starred as Lannister Soldier in an episode of the HBO series Game of Thrones and then landed the more regular role of PC Tony Forbes in Babylon. From 2017 until 2019, he appeared in all 24 episodes of Jamestown as Silas Sharrow, and then landed what is possibly his most famous role as Detective Inspector William Wellington on Miss Scarlett and the Duke. He played this part from 2020 until 2024, at which point the series continued on without him. On film, he has starred in both instalments of the space opera franchise Rebel Moon alongside the likes of Djimon Hounsou and Sofia Boutella. But away from his life on screen, Stuart is married to actress Lisa McGrillis. They celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary together, and are parents to Josh, eight, as well as four-year-old Cleo. Lisa has also starred in a number of television favourites, having first risen to prominence with her role as Vicki Pearson on the sitcom Hebburn alongside Chris Ramsey. Following that, she achieved further acclaim for her role as Sergeant Rachel Coles on Inspector George Gently, and was seen on the BBC drama series from 2014 until 2017. Since 2022, she has held the main role of Courtney on Avoidance, but last year she starred as Valerie Jones on the smash-hit Disney+ comedy drama that was based on the book by Jilly Cooper and also featured the likes of Emily Atack, Danny Dyer and David Tennant. Lisa met her husband at the National Theatre's bar more than a decade ago, but admitted that she became a 'nervous wreck' when their first child came along. She told The Sunday Post: "I was so busy for the first seven or eight months of my son's life and by the end I was a nervous wreck, so jittery and tired. The two things don't align – family life and filming. I look in the mirror and I've gone from looking like a spring chicken five years ago to a shrivelled old shoe." The couple often wow followers with their social media presence as they attend glamorous showbiz events together. In 2023, when Stuart starred in Rebel Moon, Lisa took to Instagram to write: "What a feast for your eyes, very proud of my action hero husband," and emblazoned her gushing post with several heart emojis. More recently, the couple attended the Mediterrane Film Festival together, and shared a loved-up picture from the red carpet. Lisa captioned that post: "Thank you for the most beautiful evening celebrating film and the rich culture of Malta, what a stunning evening that was." And the post did not go unnoticed by their celebrity friends, as her Rivals co-star Emily Atack wrote: "I can't quite handle how ft you both are," whilst Emmerdale actress Chelsea Halfpenny simply wrote: "Hotties," and left behind a heart emoji to boot. During the COVID-19 lockdowns, Stuart admitted that a lot of work 'suddenly went off the table' as the pandemic took hold but even though he thought it was a 'worrying and upsetting time for everyone' in his industry, but found comfort in being able to spend time with his family. He told the Scotsman at the time: "Usually you're going 'right, up in the morning, got to do this!, and you're distracted. Now, you're really spending that time with each other. And the community stuff that's coming out of it is lovely. There could definitely be a re-set for us all after this." At the same time, he admitted: "I'd have to say my wife and lad. But if I can have another? Actually no, I'm not sure I could live locked in a house for two months with anyone else. Or they could live with me. I'll stick with my lockdowns. I wouldn't inflict that on anyone, alive or dead." In Flight comprises six hour-long episodes, with the first set to air on Channel 4 on Tuesday, 12 August at 9pm. For viewers so taken in by the series, all episodes are available to view on the online streaming service on Tuesday or if episodes will be broadcast weekly on the channel. Alongside Katherine, who is perhaps best known for her portrayal of diamond-in-the-rough Becky Granger on Coronation Street but has starred in a string of dramas since them, Stuart also features alongside Ashley Thomas, also known by his stage name Bashy. He plays will play customs officer Dom Delaney, Jo's ex, in the thrilling drama. Some might recognise Ashley as Jermaine Newton from Top Boy. His acting credits include appearances in Black Mirror, Great Expectations, and The Serpent Queen. Completing the In Flight ensemble are Bronagh Waugh playing Melanie, Harry Cadby as Sonny, Corinna Brown portraying Kayla, and Ambreen Razia in the role of Zara.

Emmerdale's Mack actor Lawrence Robb speaks out as character 'killed off'
Emmerdale's Mackenzie Boyd actor Lawrence Robb has addressed his upcoming storyline, speaking out for the first time since reports he was being killed off on the ITV soap Mackenzie Boyd actor Lawrence Robb has addressed his next big Emmerdale storyline that will reportedly lead to his exit. Speaking for the first time since the reports emerged, Lawrence promised big scenes ahead. The actor did not comment on whether Mack would be killed or not, or the rumours surrounding a potential departure. The interview was held before the reports were shared, while Mack actor Lawrence did drop some major hints. It comes after it was claimed that Mack will die at the hands of killer John Sugden after he unearths his dark secret. Now, new spoilers for next week appear to back this, when it's said Mack makes a discovery that could change everything. The clue simply reads: "Mack discovers a clue, what has Mack found?" It's very vague but the spoilers in full appear to allude that it's linked to John, and Lawrence has now confirmed this. Asked about what he discovers and what it means, the star confessed it would lead to the moment Mack finally realises he's been right about John all along. He then teased it will land him in serious danger, with "bleak" scenes ahead. But speaking out about working with co-star Oliver Farnworth, who plays killer John, Lawrence had nothing but good things to say. Addressing the "tense" and "not good" scenes they've had to film together, Lawrence said offscreen the pair get along very well, with him calling Oliver "the loveliest man". He shared: "Oh, he's great. What a lovely boy. I've said that several times. I phoned him a couple of weeks ago, just to say how I thought he was doing such a great job, because, you know, playing a psycho like that - it is not easy. "And I do think he's doing a great job. And he is just the most loveliest man. It is surreal working with someone in such a relative close proximity for a while, and to really get to know them better and to just have a laugh with them, but then then do some not very nice scenes." On the future for Mack amid a row with his wife Charity Dingle and the stuff with John, Lawrence remained coy but did hint at bad things ahead. He simply said: "It's not looking good." Lawrence went on: "Whilst Mackenzie has got the argument with Charity on his plate, he's also got a pretty critical moment with John on his plate as well. And, combine these two things and it does not spell good things."
