Welcome to Queer As Soap. The little segment that turned into a sapphic soap podcast of its very own.
If you’ve ever stayed up until 3 AM obsessing over a slow-burn WLW ship, rewatched a soap clip on YouTube with subtitles fifty times, or gone all in on a ship because they looked at each other "like that"… congratulations, you've just found your people.
In the first episode, we catch up on Swarla, reminisce about Vanity, check in on Sukeve and lose it over Craeve. We also look at the latest award winners and get the goss on Ali's latest side hustle.

I’ve always been a bag-in kind of girl
Kit's off the case, and Lisa's popping pills. She has a new partner and a new messy bun.
Our pint-size DS has Maria about to crack under the pressure, but it's a carefree Todd who has her eyebrow raised. And as Betsy prepares to go away, we discover that Sophie Webster is still very gay.
Join Ally and Philly as they discuss the episodes airing from 29th June to 10th July 2026.
VOTING IS STILL OPEN!
