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.

Kit's off the case, and Lisa's popping pills. She has a new partner and a new messy bun.

A moody traitor-style dinner party, a not-so-shocking murder reveal, and a close call for Rye Rye, who missed out on "dunch" but still managed a lucky escape.

But it was a balcony, 2 stolen seconds, and a missing kiss that stole the show.

Join Ally and Philly as they chat Swarla crumbs, mount Sarah's defence and critique Kit's cuisine.

Discussing the episodes airing from 22nd to 25th June, 2026.

Betsy's off to London, half the street is acting shifty, and Jodie is using the inside bin to get rid of dog poo...

Yet the biggest shock of the past two weeks was undoubtedly the revelation that Carla and Lisa were going vegan!

Pull on a pair of Marigolds, and get to the Batmobile... Ally and Philly discuss all things Swarla from the episodes airing from the 8th to the 19th of June, 2026.

Put your hands in the air, and step away from the feta. Solving a murder on your own street was never going to be an easy task, so it's lucky that Queen Carla has her wife's back, as she cops digs from all over. PC RyeRye has joined the investigation, as has Lisa's new boss, who's looking to make her mark.

Join us as we discuss episodes airing from 25th May to 4th June 2026.

Fancy pants, flying pig brooches, and Fiz's fancy quiche… because even the law gotta eat!

Join Ally Mac and Philly as they discuss another week of Street Justice. The heat is on Summer, Sarah interrupts date night, and Kit has mysteriously disappeared after his comments about Lisa's new missus.

The honeymoon is over, the whodunnit has begun, and sassy Swain is back!

It's been 3 weeks since they got married, and since then we have had exactly 41 seconds of Swarla, but that won't stop us from examining the evidence as we discuss the episodes airing 4th to 15th May 2026.
