For the first time in 15 years, Julian Simmons will be putting his feet up over Christmas and watching what's on the box, rather than telling viewers across Northern Ireland what's coming up next. "I'm actually really looking forward to relaxing with friends and catching up on the soaps without having to think too much about the story lines or characters," Julian reveals. "In the past I've been stopped by viewers who wanted to talk to me about what was going on in Coronation Street or Emmerdale so I had to be up to speed on things. "Now I can just enjoy them without having to concentrate too hard. And I'm really excited about having Christmas off for the first time in years. It's been such a challenging year for everyone, but I'm determined to make the most of this Christmas and enjoy every second."
