Baby for McQueen
Hollyoaks' Nicole Barber-Lane has hinted at an upcoming baby story between her screen daughter and son-in-law.
Barber-Lane, who plays McQueen mum Myra, suggested that Mercedes's (Jennifer Metcalfe) and Malachy's (Glen Wallace) thoughts will turn to parenthood in the coming weeks.
Speaking to DS at the Inside Soap Awards launch in Manchester, she said: "Mercedes and Malachy... there's something going to be happening with them and it's a bit worrying for Myra. But it all sorts itself out in the end..."
She added: "I don't know how much I can tell you! Well... they get a little bit maternal. That's all I can say."
Of her other screen daughter Michaela's (Hollie-Jay Bowes) comedic relationship with Zak (Kent Riley), she smiled: "I think they're a perfect pairing, absolutely perfect. They're such fun together, great on screen. They're a great comedy couple."

Hollyoaks star Jennifer Metcalfe has reportedly signed a new contract keeping her on the soap for at least another year.
Bosses were apparently determined to keep the 29-year-old who plays Mercedes McQueen.
Metcalfe has also been promised that her character will be involved in some 'explosive' storylines.
A Hollyoaks insider said to the Daily Star: "Mercedes has some great plotlines coming."
Metcalfe joined the cast of Hollyoaks in 2006. Mercedes will be involved in a public catfight with sister Carmel later this week when they clash over Chez Chez.
Other recent storylines have seen her involved in a dangerous money-making scheme with Clare Devine.
Hollyoaks airs weeknights at 6.30pm on Channel 4, with first look screenings at 7pm on E4.

Hollyoaks stars Jennifer Metcalfe and Greg Wood have discussed their characters' upcoming storyline, which will see Mercedes' life in danger when Trevor threatens her.
Viewers will see Mercedes become reluctant to share the payout that she received from husband Doctor Browning's life insurance with anyone, and Trevor Royle soon catches up with her while she is on a spa break.
Trevor is desperate to get his hands on the money in order to rescue Grace, who is being held hostage by Ray following a drug deal going wrong.
Metcalfe said to Inside Soap: "She wants the cash for herself. Even when Mercedes has a gun pointed at her, she refuses to give any money to Trevor.
"She only pretends she is doing the bank transfer. But he catches her out by ringing her while she is meant to be calling the bank.
"There is no way Mercedes will go down without a fight. She knows what Trevor is capable of, but that won't stop her pushing his buttons. Mercedes has waited a long time for this cash - and she's not prepared to give it up."
Wood added that Trevor and Fraser will go to any lengths to get the money from Mercedes, meaning her life could be in serious danger.
He said: "Initially Trevor and Fraser hatch a plan to befriend her and con the money out of her. But things get a bit more tense and the stakes are upped.
"Trevor wants the money put into the bank, but as Mercedes would know what had happened, that problem needs to be buried."

Mercedes McQueen causes more trouble for the Hollyoaks gangsters next week as she decides to blackmail Trevor Royle.
Feisty Mercedes (Jennifer Metcalfe) spots a quick money-making opportunity after Trevor is released from prison following new developments in Fraser Black's murder case.
Showing her ruthless side yet again, Mercedes warns Trevor (Greg Wood) that she plans to tell his on-off girlfriend Grace Black (Tamara Wall) that they slept together on the night of Fraser's death.
Mercedes makes it clear that she'll only keep quiet in exchange for £1,000, which Trevor reluctantly gives her as he feels backed into a corner over their secret.
A Hollyoaks source told Digital Spy: "Trevor hopes that he's done enough to save his relationship with Grace, but later in the week she has a furious outburst and attacks Mercedes in the village. Has she found out the truth?"
