JEREMY EDWARDS

The first serving of this week’s double helping of Soap From The Box is Jeremy Edwards, who played Kurt Benson in Hollyoaks and Danny Shaughnessy in Holby City. In a jam packed chat, Lee and Jeremy talk about being in Hollyoaks from the start, his return for the 25th Anniversary, the innocent times of SMTV, Celebrity Big Brother, how he ended up hating the fame, his marriage to Rachel Stevens, being offered £2 million for his wedding pictures and… how he once worked in a bank! Phew!
