From Coronation Street to Emmerdale, Hollyoaks to EastEnders, there have been a number of occasions in which siblings have entered the world of soaps.
It is usually the case that they have joined different soaps to ply their trade but every now and then, brothers and sisters act opposite each other onscreen.
Here is a rundown of siblings that have acted in soaps and which characters they played;
Charley Webb (Debbie Dingle in Emmerdale) and Jamie Lomas (Warren Fox in Hollyoaks)
Charley has played the indomitable Debbie Dingle in Emmerdale since 2002. Her big brother Jamie has made his way in soaps as bad boy Warren Fox in Hollyoaks.
Jamie also had a brief spell as Jake Stone in EastEnders before returning north to Hollyoaks for a second spell.
The Webb family has also seen Charley and Jamie's younger siblings Danny Webb and Lucy Webb appear in Emmerdale.
Danny played the first Aaron Livesy from 2003-2006, while Lucy played baby Jon Dingle from 2004-2007.
