She added, “I mean, 60 years — it’s been on the air 61 now —that’s incredible. That hourglass, that McDonald Carey [Tom Horton] opening line … we’re a part of that history.”

Villainous Return!

In addition, Dimitri von Leuschner is expected to be seen on canvas during the week of August 3, as Peter Porte reprises the role. During the week of July 27-31, Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) believed that Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) was kidnapped by her ex, so he headed to Alamainia during the Friday, July 31 show. Leo will arrive there during the week of August 3 and realize his suspicions were correct. Still, will Dimitri attempt to keep both Leo and Gwen hostage in the aftermath?
