We know that Eileen Grimshaw is an old school friend of Julie Carp's mum, Paula. Since Eileen found out, Julie has been quite evasive about her mum and it's all a bit of a mystery.
Next week we'll meet the lady herself, when Eileen bumps into Paula in the Street and insists they go for a drink together. It turns out that Paula left school suddenly because she was pregnant with Julie - but who was the father? It couldn't possibly be anyone to do with Eileen, could it?
Paula is played by Sharon Duce, who has a list of TV credits as long as a very long arm. From Softly Softly and Z Cars back in the 1970s, via Doctor Who, Emmerdale, London's Burning and countless other shows, you're bound to recognise her face.
