Here's A Reminder Of Some Of The Best Footballers' Wives Moments

It's been 12 years since ITV drama Footballers' Wives last graced our TV screens but according to Gary Lucy, who played Kyle Pascoe the show could be making a comeback.

With this news, it seems fitting to have a look back at the dramatic storylines the programme blessed us with in the early noughties.

Here's some of the best, most standout moments from Footballers' Wives.

The Baby Swap

We couldn't look at the shows most ludicrous story lines without talking about Tanya swapping her and Amber's babies.

If you're not familiar with the ins and outs of this one we've got it covered. Amber Gates, played by Laila Rouass, was married to Conrad Gates, played by Ben Price. You could say they had a complicated relationship.

Conrad was having an affair with Tanya Turner, played by Zöe Lucker, who just happened to get pregnant at the same time as Amber.

Conrad thought that he was the dad of both of the babies, however, Tanya's baby was in fact fathered by her ex-husband Frank Laslett, played by John Forgeham, who had been poking holes in their condoms.

So that Conrad would never find out, Tanya induced Amber on the same day she was having her c-section, and paid a midwife to swap the babies. We know it's pretty wild, but the noughties were an unusual time for these WAGs.

Tanya Murders Frank With A Mixture Of Alcohol, Viagra and Sex

Tanya seems to be drawn to drama as she appears in pretty much all of the most ludicrous story lines.

Remember that time she gave Frank a cocktail of Viagra, alcohol and cocaine so that he would have a heart attack and die during sex?

The businessman was left clutching his chest and reaching for the phone while wrapped in blue silk sheets, as Tanya pushed the mobile out of his hand leaving him to die.

Tanya then discovered she was pregnant with Frank's baby in a tense cliffhanger during the final episode of series three

Amber Fakes Her Own Kidnap

After finding out about Tanya and Conrad's affair, Amber sought revenge, so naturally she faked her own kidnap.

Conrad received a phone call from Amber, which he almost declines, to say she has been kidnapped. During the call Amber tells Conrad not to try and contact her and not to call the police (we wonder why).

Tanya of course discovers that the kidnap was a hoax, and as Conrad and Amber started to rekindle their love, Amber began to panic and vowed that her husband would never find out.

Kyle Riding A Horse And Waking His 'Sleeping Beauty' On His Wedding Day

There were quite a few weddings on Footballers' Wives but none of them will ever top Kyle and Chardonnay Lane-Pascoe's (played by Susie Amy).

It was the tackiest, cheesiest and pinkest wedding we have ever seen and everyone will remember the moment Kyle appeared on a white horse to kiss his wife-to-be in true Disney style.

Chardonnay was 'asleep' waiting for her Prince Charming to wake her so the ceremony could go ahead, and of course the guests were just as confused as the viewers.

When Jason Turner Was Pushed Off The Roof On His Wedding Day

If there was one way Jason Turner, played by Cristian Solimeno, would be pushed off a roof it would have to be with a magnum of champagne.

After being ditched at the altar by Tanya, Jason made his way to the roof to drown his sorrows with a bottle of champagne.

The extravagant footballer was pushed to his death after he confronted an unknown murder on the roof of his wedding venue, who ended up giving him one last push after he slipped and was left hanging.

When Tanya Pretended To Be An Air Hostess To Sneak On Conrad's Jet

This would definitely not happen in this day and age with how strict airline security is, but you've got to admire Tanya's dedication.

In a bid to join the mile high club, Tanya dressed as an air hostess looking like an extra from Britney Spears' 'Toxic' video, and sneaked onto Conrad's private jet.

The disguise obviously worked as she managed to surprise the footballer, and you can probably guess what happened next.

It was this steamy flight that led to Amber uncovering that Tanya was Conrad's mistress after she scratched a 'T' onto Conrad's bum.

We're not too sure how a new series of Footballers' Wives will top any of these moments but we really can't wait to see if the rumours are true.
