Soaplife is a fortnightly UK magazine, released on Tuesday by Time Inc. UK (formerly IPC Media). Its headquarters is in London.[2] Storylines of the shows it covers are from soap operas shown in the United Kingdom and from Australia.

History and profile[edit]
In 1999, the magazine was first launched[2] just for one issue to print pictures from The British Soap Awards as sister TV listings magazine, What's on TV did not have enough space to print all the backstage pictures. Its selling figures were impressive and a second issue came out shortly afterwards. Since the late 1990s, Soaplife has made 145 issues and is the second biggest selling soap opera magazine, behind weekly Inside Soap.
Edited by Paul Brookes, it offers backstage news and gossip from GMTV's Tina Baker, advanced storyline hot plots, readers' views and competitions.
Soaplife belongs to IPC Media's family of television magazines (now Time Inc. UK), which form the sub-group TX. This includes What's on TV, TV & Satellite Week and TV Times.
