Hollyoaks, while Sarah Dunn (right),
“grew up in it.”



As rising stars of Channel 4’s popular soap Hollyoaks, Joanna Taylor and Sarah Dunn are getting used to turning heads -and camera lenses. But despite their tender years (Joanna is just 21; Sarah is 18) the pair haven’t been fazed by the media feeding frenzy that surrounds them. It probably helps that they share a common background in the heady world of modelling.

Sarah is a Hollyoaks veteran of four years, while Joanna has been with the show for just a year and the two of them are now firm friends. “We get on brilliantly,” says Joanna, who used to go out with actor and former EastEnders star Paul Nicholls. “But then, Sarah is one of the nicest members of the cast. I don’t think I’ve heard anyone say a bad word about her.”

Both Sarah and Joanna are modest about their looks, which is surprising, considering that they were both models before landing the parts of Mandy and Geri.

“I hate my nose because it’s wonky and lopsided,” says Joanna, while Sarah confesses that she used to want to look like Kylie Minogue.

them used to be models.

Both are popular cover girls and receive
lots of letters from ardent male fans,
though they insist that they’d never
pose nude.
