Sheree Murphy joins Hollyoaks as Anita Roy's mom Tania:). Looks like this producers is getting in people who can act rather than going on looks, still has his work cut out in sorting out the mess it's been left in though:shocked:.

All the students acting is soooooo bad, it ridiculous.

[Fom]

All the students acting is soooooo bad, it ridiculous.

The acting is general is bad. Its like they got models/people off the streets and gave them scripts. They aren't actors, what separates them from anyone else standing in front of a camera saying words?

Hollyoaks is an insult to the art of acting.

I mean some weren't bad in the old days, the older ones are ok. But yeah, alot are very very bad, it's all about looks these days which is pretty sad. I think all the 'baddies' seem to be the best actors really. I thought Nial was pretty good, Clare was hit and miss, but Warren was good, and he's been in a few other things as well.

I agree that Hollyoaks have tend to cast people on their looks but i'm a teen and watched it when it first started with the days of Rob Hawthorne, Lucy Benson, Jude Cunningham and back then they had people who can act.. it's gone downhill since Bryan Kirkwood left and now the new producer has the task of making Hollyoaks good again as when it is in form it is unmissable. Hollyoaks has always been a come and go show, the departures of lots of cast has harmed it recently and trying to replace them all is difficult plus theres other problems also for them to deal with:rolleyes:

[teamandre]

well im a teen and me and my freinds think they are good so how cares and skins and shameless are just the best !

Damn right they should be unsettled:D, the guy has a harsh reputation and there is going to hopefully be a cull of the deadwood in the cast:).

Gemma Atkinson wants a Hollyoaks guest return?

Just as the community are ready to give up hope, Jake turns up with an injured Holly in his arms.

Expecting a hero's welcome, Jake gets nothing but abuse.

Cindy's certain that Jake had something to do with Holly's disappearance.
He's promptly handcuffed and arrested.

[bbfan1991]

Thanks for that:thumbs:, i'm looking forward to seeing all the events that happened in the flashforward episode being explained in the main show like Zak turning racist:shocked: and how Calvin makes lots of enemies.. I know Sasha and Spencer find out soon he left Warren to die in The Loft.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Lees returning... thank god.

[Mrluvaluva]

I read that Duncan has Chipmunk as his guest at his party next week.

Usually like I can jump in and out of it pretty easy and it's usually alright, but this time yeah it's really having a bad patch. And Jaqui and that Geordie guy really really annoy me, the whole 'on off' thing. Getting very boring.

[Tom4784]

It's getting quite dull, It's ussually one of the few soaps I'll watch consistently but it's just so boring, I'm guessing it's gonna pick up soon though the with Holly Storyline returning to the forefront and the story threads coming together for the Flashforward episode.

Stick with it.. i'm confident that the new producer will sort it out, he has a reputation of being quite harsh if things are not right but he's produced some good work at Footballer's Wives, The Bill and Family Affairs:D.

Some spoilers:).

Spoiler

Frankie and Loretta are worried about Jake next week, as he still hasn’t returned home. Little do they realise that he’s shacked up in a caravan with a woman named Caroline, a nurse from the psychiatric hospital.

It turns out that Caroline got in contact with Jake after reading about his involvement in Holly’s disappearance in the local paper. And Jake certainly seems to be enjoying playing happy families with the nurse.

After Jake and Caroline sleep together, it looks like they’re much closer than a nurse and her former patient should be. But just what exactly is Caroline up to?

Jake starts to panic when he realises his phone is missing and he’s unable to call home. But when he confronts Caroline about it, she turns nasty – and ties him up.

Paying Frankie and Loretta a visit, Caroline lies and tells them that Jake just needs some time out to get his head together. But when she realises that Loretta is his girlfriend, she doesn’t seem very happy...

Meanwhile, Jake has managed to escape from Caroline’s makeshift prison, and is heading back to the village to warn Loretta. But when he gets a call to go to the hospital, it looks like a showdown is on the cards.

He arrives at Holly’s bedside to find that Caroline has lost the plot, and taken Loretta captive. Can he save his girlfriend from the nutty nurse’s clutches?

Elsewhere in the village, Sasha is stunned to hear that another girl has been mugged, fearing it’s the same man who attacked her. Realising the severity of the situation, she finally opens up and tells Calvin about her ordeal.

When Carmel later spots Calvin coming out of the station, she asks him what he was up to. But she’s left frustrated when he clearly lies to her – little does she realise he’s just looking out for Sasha.

Fearing that Calvin is up to his old tricks again, Carmel seeks advice from sister Mercedes – and lets slip that her former husband left Warren to die in the Loft fire.

Still angry at Calvin for dumping her, Mercedes goes straight to Sasha to tell her all about his involvement in Warren’s death. Sasha can’t believe he would do something like that – and demands that Leo throw him out of the house.

With Lauren also threatening to walk out if Leo doesn’t take a stand, the dad has no other choice but to ask his son to leave. Calvin’s gutted, especially as it looks like his relationship with Carmel is over for good this time, too.

Calvin heads to the Loft to drown his sorrows, and bumps into Theresa, who’s also in a bad mood. As the two of them compare their woes, one thing leads to another, and they’re soon kissing...

Theresa is delighted as things get steamier between the pair. But how will Calvin feel when he wakes up in the morning and realises he’s bedded yet another member of the McQueen clan?

Omg.. Calvin bedding all the Mcqueens. Also how could Jake cheat on the gorgeous Loretta? Cheating scumbags!!!!!

Mmm if I can be arsked I will start watching Hollyoaks. I just watch it when Im there at the time when it is on though. I used to watch it all the time last year.. up to Warren's death and then it wasn't as good.

[bbfan1991]

HO really has gone downhill under Lucy Allen:(.. Calvin and Theresa like WTF:shocked:.

Duncan really needs to pee off lol, his birthday party was just dire:rolleyes:.

Video on YT of the rapist Andy Holt when he chased the twins Mel and Sophie Burton in a tower in Blackpool because he raped them, ran into a room there was a scream and when the twins turned the lights on he was impaled on a spike.. I loved this late night HO episode but it was disturbing:shocked:.

With all the other soaps doing the suicide/overdose story lines, it was only a matter of time before Hollyoaks did. Elliot collapses after taking too many pills. Archies been experimenting on a new designer drug. Archie ends up leaving Hollyoaks for good.

It's been really good this week, apart from those cringey voice overs from Calvin. It's definitely heading in the right direction though.

Paul Marquess has revealed that upcoming Hollyoaks storylines will be kept secret.

Speaking to Radio Times, the soap's new executive producer claimed that he would be filming more endings in the future due to media leaks of recent plotlines.

He said: "It's a different world now. The audience is much savvier, the need to keep up a soap's profile is more urgent, and there seems to be an appetite for spoilers."

Marquess added: "Later in the year we'll be doing a story for which we'll film three endings and no-one will know until the night of transmission which one we'll use."

[Mrluvaluva]

I suppose it's the way forward if they want to keep the audience on their toes and surprise them. It is all too easy to find out what is going on in the soaps now before they have aired. We are all too eager to know the information of what is in store and it does spoil it somewhat. Eastenders did it with the storyline over Bradleys' death and it was a well kept secret until the night. (I think).

It will also keep viewers more interested:), can't wait for Paul's episodes to air in July.. also the disaster storyline he has planned sounds great.

[Mrluvaluva]

Disaster storyline?

Love HO :love:

[bbfan1991]

What's your overall vision for Hollyoaks?
"I said publicly I thought it was a bit serious and it seemed some stories were taking too long, while others were over in a blink. This happens on all the soaps every couple of years or so. You just need to stop and say: 'What is this programme? Who is it for? And how does it work?' My conversations have really been about where Hollyoaks will be in five years' time as much as where it is now and in six months' time, so it was very much about rediscovering the USP.

"If you came from America, you'd look at Corrie, Emmerdale and EastEnders and say they are essentially the same format with different accents, whereas Hollyoaks is different. It's very focused in terms of its target demographic and I think it ought to be focused in the way it tells stories. It was about working out what a Hollyoaks story is, as opposed to an EastEnders story. I did think there were some stories in Hollyoaks that could have played in EastEnders quite comfortably.

"By October/November on screen, it's much more focused on the point of view of the younger characters. It doesn't mean we won't play the older characters but it's telling stories that are about rites of passage, about discovering things for the first time and that are essentially about working out who you are, as opposed to being defined by your parents or teachers or background."

What particular decisions have you had to make to bring the show closer to your vision?
"Well, for example, the story we're about to tell with Tony which will start on screen quite soon really redefines Tony as one of the older characters, which I know Nick [Pickard] is very comfortable with. I don't know if he's 35 yet but he's not 16 anymore and there's only so many daft Tony stories you can do. He's so key to the show and so able and adept he will have a raft of new stories to play in a new context. By the autumn, we'll feel we're seeing Tony in a different context."

In a recent interview, you were quoted as saying that Hollyoaks needs more comedy. A lot of the fans think the opposite - what's your take on this?
"What I'm after is balance. I think sometimes it's a bit too daft and sometimes it's a bit too dark. We have some very big serious storylines coming up. When I say it got too dark, that was to do with the pace of the storytelling. By dark I mean grim. I walked into the building and we were playing a multiple sclerosis story and that played out in a week of episodes where there was nothing light, so it didn't feel like Hollyoaks.

"The key thing to say to viewers is, when I say comedy in Hollyoaks, I mean character comedy, not practical jokes or props. Some of the comedy has been a bit daft - not all of it - but it doesn't float my boat. I love Hollyoaks when it's character comedy. When you're laughing because of what Carmel's doing and you know Carmel really well or you can see what's happening because you know the characters really well. That's why we're bringing Lee Hunter back. The stuff we've storylined for Lee is not daft - it's funny because it's him."

What was the one thing you knew needed to change with the show when you took over?
"I think my biggest concern was the pace of storytelling. Probably people on Digital Spy will be more interested in this than other people but there's a technical thing on Hollyoaks because we shoot single-camera, so our access to the cast is really limited. It's a bit dull but I've had to learn how to tell stories Hollyoaks-style. So whereas if you were doing Corrie or a similar show, you might build up to an event over six or eight weeks - you just can't do that on Hollyoaks.

"Actually what I'm finding is this will be the soap, by the end of this year, where lots of things happen all the time. It's not about build-up - it's about fall-out. Fall-out is more interesting than build-up, I think. But by September or October I don't think there will be a dull week of Hollyoaks. We don't have the cast to play a whole week with the same four characters across all five episodes doing the same thing - we just can't do that and that's something I've discovered."

Will you be revamping the credits?
"Yes..."

Can you tell us about that?
"As it's not signed off, no! I have a meeting about it tomorrow. Conceptually what they will be is an organic development of what we've got but they will look and feel quite different. That's as hot as you can have it though because I don't know. We've got two pitches tomorrow."

Will you be rescoring the theme?
"Yes, probably..."

Will you be keeping the opening sequences?
"They're going to change quite a lot. What you won't see anymore is our actors out of character. They won't be playing newsreaders or characters from Oklahoma or whatever. I think the serious point is that we have to compete for the audience's attention, so our stories have got to be bold, our characters have got to be strong and our writing's got to be great. I need people to get to know Cheryl as Cheryl rather than Bronagh playing a newsreader - I don't think it helps.

"We will have opening sequences but their job will be [if you missed the episode before] to give you a strong flavour of what stories we're telling. That's what they were originally meant to be. We call them menus here so it's a menu of tonight's episode. In wedding week, for example, the opening menu scenes are flashbacks of the episode before."

So will they be recaps or previews?
"It depends [on the stories] - in wedding week the episodes are continuous and there's a lot going on. It won't feel very different because they're still very stylish and they've still got music over them, so to be quite honest with you it's horses for courses and depends what story we're telling. If you're in the middle of something really serious and meaty I'm not going to have a daft menu sequence."

Some viewers think Hollyoaks uses too many commercial tracks per episode. What are your thoughts?
"I think the way Hollyoaks uses music is another reason why it's different. Sometimes people get hung up on the music or the intro scenes because they don't like the stories. My job is to make the stories so good you're not sitting there thinking, 'Hmm, there's too much music!'"

Lots of characters are leaving - will there be any major disaster? Or will they all just fall by the wayside?
"There is going to be something later in the year. It's not what people expect - we're not going to kill 15 characters in one go. We've got a really strong autumn coming up. There's big fun stuff in September which takes Steph Waring out for a while, which Channel 4 love and are going to promote. Then September/October, we've got the Later which will be absolutely terrific. Then after the Later, something terrible happens to Hollyoaks Village but that will be as much about the storytelling as the disaster itself. To be absolutely frank, I'm storylining that today so quite how it will pan out I'm not sure but it's not what people expect."

Do you have anything special lined up for the show's 15th anniversary? Will there be a tie-in with the third Later?
"Nope. We think it's much more fun to celebrate Hollyoaks being 16 next year. Sweet 16 is a much more Hollyoaks sort of thing. And everybody's had an anniversary this year! Surely the audience are bored?"

What do you have planned for Hollyoaks Later v3.0?
"It's quite different from the previous two as in it flows out of and back into the 6.30pm shows. We're writing the scripts now because we shoot it quite early, so we're well ahead with it. You can watch the 6.30pm shows and now watch Later and that will be fine or watch Later and not watch the 6.30pm shows. But for the full surround-sound 3D experience, you need to watch it all."

Will Later be shooting in HD?
"Yes."

Will it have a big stunt like all other years?
"We won't have a stunt that's as big as last year - I don't know how you would top that parachute jump, it was brilliant - but we have different stuff going on through the week and we do have an action sequence at the end which I think will be really cool and different. The big thing about Later this year is that it all takes place over one night. It's very exciting."

What made you take on the burden of another show alongside the main 6.30pm edition?
"I didn't even think about it, it just seemed to be really obvious. Obviously I'm a megalomaniac and a glutton for punishment! I think what it was, was that I really want [Later and the main show] to work together. I'll be bringing a producer in to run Later for me but the editorial stuff is done - it's all storylined - and I haven't died! Maybe I'm used to it. I used to exec on The Bill, Family Affairs and Murder Investigation Team at the same time so it didn't seem that bad to me."

Will you be using the older characters a little more?
"To some extent - they won't get [main storylines] - it's not about them, but I didn't see any reason why they shouldn't be really interesting and good fun."

Ever since Hollyoaks began, anyone over 35 is usually just the parent of a character and there for support purposes. Will that change?
"I think the thing about Myra is that actually her kids are quite old. I think she's great and she's got good stuff coming up with Theresa, which makes sense but does Jacqui really need Myra? Whereas with the Costellos coming in, the kids are younger and actually part of their reason for arriving is to do with the kids so it feels really easy to involve them from the off. Also they're glamorous and have a story which is the dad being worried about the kids finding something out. It'll change from that point of view. You might see more of Myra when we bring in the new McQueen, though."

We've heard the new McQueen is called Bart...
"Yes, his name is Bart McQueen - he's obviously named after Bart Simpson..."

Where does he come from? Does Myra have another sister?
"Oh, he's some sort of cousin! They basically go to the wrong funeral and then they go to the right funeral and end up coming back with him - it is funny."

Do you intend to continue casting more 'known' and high-profile actors?
"No-one's been cast for being high-profile. Casting Sheree Murphy, it was day one and they said: 'We have to cast this today'. They showed me a DVD of six perfectly good actresses, one of whom was Sheree Murphy who I recognised and said, 'Let's have her'. It's as simple as that - I've watched Emmerdale and I know what Sheree can do. It's a safe pair of hands and because it's her, originally she was coming in and it was quite [a small role] but it gets bigger and bigger and funnier. She turns into the mother from hell.

"Then people like Paul Opacic who is playing Carl Costello was the best by about a million miles when he read, then Kim Tiddy - I just had to have Kim Tiddy! I cast Kim in The Bill - she's actually here today. She was stranded in Thailand for a week. I started by saying, 'We could have Kim Tiddy but maybe she's a bit too young?' Then we saw lots of actresses and thought, 'No, let's have Kim Tiddy'. She's great. The writers are really excited about her."

Will you be creating more sets? Filming more on location?
"Well, we have new sets appearing but that's over the course of the next year. Hollyoaks is basically built as real, so you can't turn it around over a weekend. In terms of shooting more on location, we will - to some extent - where it really works. There's so much on site now. Ten years ago, there was Brookside and Hollyoaks here but now there's just Hollyoaks. It's all about how we use the space."

Playing devil's advocate… If you were at Hollyoaks before Christmas, would you have gone ahead with the flashforward?
"If you'd asked me that on January 6, I would have said no. It was facing me like a huge cliff to climb, but it's really worked. I've seen it and I'm really pleased with it."

What was your reasoning behind Alex Carter's return as Lee Hunter?
"He turns up with another character. He's been working as a Gareth Gates impersonator on a cruise ship and he won't just have light stories because Alex is great. He's one of our new students. The thing about our new students is the audience will recognise some of them. I can't remember how many there are but we're doing a proper Freshers' Week. Some of them will be eerily familiar but I'll [leave you thinking about] that."

Were you ever worried about establishing a new group of students?
"Well we've done Freshers' Week. They more of less get a week to themselves - it's good, it's funny and things happen in it. One of them doesn't make the grade in that week and one of them isn't who he says he is… They come in with a bang."

Are you planning to bring back any more former cast members?
"Not currently."

Who's on your wish list?
"They're all dead!"

The Costellos
"They're only one of three families. They're family number two. The thing about the Costellos is that The Dog has to be somewhere the audience wants to be. It's like when I did Brookside, the first thing I did was put Bev in the bar so you wanted to be in there. I loved the Ashworths and I'm a huge fan of Suzanne Hall but they've had such grim storylines recently that every time you went to The Dog, there was grim stuff happening. I'm not saying the Costellos won't have serious stories but I think you'll want to be there. They're good-looking kids and the parents are good-looking and there's potential for energy and fun."

Are the Costellos the ones hiding something from their kids?
"Oh, everybody's hiding something from their kids in this show! There's loads of secrets. Secrets work."

The Sharpes
"Phina, who's playing Gabby Sharpe, is fantastic. I'm just about to do her first rough cut and she's brilliant."

Brenden - is he a bad boy?
"Oh, definitely - he's an absolute b**tard! I think people are going to think, 'Here's the next Warren', but they'll be surprised when they find out what the real story is. He is Cheryl's half-brother… and Cheryl won't hear a bad word against him..."

Mitzeee
"She's gorgeous, yes. She's Heidi Costello's cousin. She's a wannabe, aspiring, kind-of-getting-there glamour model who does a PR thing at the nightclub. She becomes one of the Costellos but she's a constant irritant. She's a woman on a mission - that's all I'm saying. We will meet Mitzee's mother and when we do, it'll explain why Mitzeee has it in for the Costellos."

What do you have planned for Steph Dean Cunningham?
"The Steph story was talked about before I was here. I could have changed it but I thought it was interesting to do a serious story for her. I'm not saying she's a comedy character but she's a great comedy actress so it's about somebody we know and love going through a really hard time. By the time you get to next year with that story, you'll see what I mean by a 'Hollyoaks story'. Once that plays out you'll say, 'They could only have told it like that in Hollyoaks'."

Is Jem sticking around? She's been credited as 'Jem Costello' and with a new family under the same name, will they be related or will she have a name change like Zak/Steph had in the past?
"Well I'd have thought the fact that she was called Costello was a big clue! (Laughs)"

Apparently she's getting a new family?
"No, no - the third family is completely new. It's a mum and dad with two kids. Something shocking happens to them really early on. It's one of the kids having a really, really big secret that we see - we're in on that from the beginning. You see what this kid gets up to and you think, 'Oh no, this is going to end in disaster'. And guess what? It does..."

Has Hayley Ramsey left for good? Her pregnancy was never really resolved and she's barely been mentioned since.
"We're talking about bringing her back but what I've said to her is that we'll only bring her back if we've got a good enough story for her. Clearly, as far as the audience are concerned, it was really quite unsatisfactory the way she left because the actress wasn't well but she's had her baby now and she's absolutely fine. There's no point just bringing her back for the sake of it but we've got a long term next week, so we'll talk about it then."

Will we ever meet Jacqui and Mercedes's father?
"I saw Claire Cooper today - the main thing is that there's so much talent within that family that there's a danger that they are 'The McQueens'. Jacqui will move out and have a completely fresh set of stories. She'll try and cope with life without that support system. The father's not something we've talked about yet. I wouldn't rule it out, but is it too obvious? It would need a really big twist that I haven't thought of yet…"

Eva

Doesn't it seem a bit ironic though?

"Paul Marquess has revealed that upcoming Hollyoaks storylines will be kept secret."

And yet spoilers have been released going into next year?

I've only saw spoilers until December so far?. Although Waveguide are the most accurate for HO spoilers:).

I love the late night episodes and the music that Hollyoaks plays in each of their episodes which makes it realistic and obviously more different from the others.

The late night Hollyoaks episodes are the best imo, and I agree that the music at the start of every normal episode does make it different from the other soaps and I have grown to like it and basically expect it.

I did notice this at the end of your earlier post:

""Next January, there's the most brilliant murder. It's just brilliant - it's so clever. It's not my idea, it was one of the writer's, but I just thought it was brilliant."

The ones they did with Toby Mills the serial killer and Andy Holt the rapist were awesome plus Niall Rafferty:D.

In tomorrow's C4 episode they play Shoot You Down as Jacqui is trying to find the gun that shot Calvin in Evissa and hiding some evidence.

The music they played when Clare was presumed to drown in the lake and when she turned up at the airport at the end of McDean leaving was brilliant too:hugesmile:.

Hmm wonder what character it will happen to?, as no-one else has been confirmed as leaving apart from those who he axed or the actor choosing to leave.

I watched the omnibus of last week on Monday, I was so confused what was going on with the spooky house D:

And I didnt expect it to be the woman who shot Calvin, seemed random though how she just walked over got the gun and shot him... espicially infront of everybody!

Wow, First EE gets new titles, then Corrie and now Hollyoaks?

Is it a completely revamped thing or just tweaked abit?

I think he'll be scraping the titles with the actors and keep them simple, must be a pain for them to change when people leave.. the music is also changing:D.

Loving the scenes involving Mercedes, Malachy, Jacqui and Carmel:). Glad Archie has left he's so pointless although I did think Kris was way too harsh and Cheryl also is playing a big role in the continuation of the Calvin thing:hugesmile:.

Hollyoaks star Carley Stenson has revealed that she was pleased when she heard that her character Steph Cunningham would be diagnosed with cervical cancer.

The health nightmare kicks off in next week's episodes, which see Steph struggling to come to terms with the news about her condition.

Speaking of the shock plot, Stenson told All About Soap: "I'm so flattered I've been trusted with this storyline. I was the face for the campaign Arm Against Cervical Cancer last year, so it's important to me that I get it right."

Asked whether Steph is confident about beating her illness, the actress replied: "There's no other option. If she doesn't fight this, the alternative isn't worth thinking about."

Steph initially decides not to tell love interest Gilly Roach (Anthony Quinlan) about her news, and also keeps her family out of the loop.

Stenson explained: "With Gilly, she's embarrassed and doesn't want him to look after her. She also doesn't want to hurt her family either."

I'm delighted that Carley and Steph will be at the centre of the action again:).

Unlike Lucy Allan who wasted both PM will do better with them and give Carley good material to work with;)

[bbfan1991]

Steph better not die:(, Carley Stenson is being coy about it in interviews so could be leaving:bawling:.

[Jords]

Watched all last's weeks yesturday! Hollyoaks is much better from where I stopped watching it from. Steph's cancer story should be interesting, espicially after she's just got back with that guy again.

I LOVE Jackie! I find it great how she is protecting her cousin. :)

I think Theresa will be exposed as the killer in Hollyoaks Later since it's been confirmed she will be in it;).

Carmel will be devestated once she finds out.. also don't get how suddenly Mercedes and Malachy are back together, I love them as a couple but in the C4 episode the other day they made up quickly and seems that a quick fumble was all it took:joker:.

Jacqui will also be moving out of the McQueen's house accoridng to Paul Marquess and will be having storylines where she has to get used to life without caring for her family and interacting with others outside of the family circle.

Zak exit revealed...

Kent Riley tweeted yesterday:

"Just finished filming my final scene on HO. A bus ride with 2 others is exactly what I wanted after 3 and a half years".

The boring recent exits of students leaving HO by simply going on trips recently has been very annoying:rolleyes:.. I hope he leaves with Kris and Des but there is a rumour going around that Nancy could be going with him:(.. shame if true because I like her character although not had much to do recently or any storylines.

[bbfan1991]

Has Gilly been burnt to death yet? or been cut in half with a chainsaw? If so I must start watching again.

No although at some point I do think he will be axed because the HO producer on the other shows he has worked on has a reputation for axing people and replacing them:D.

I don't mind Gilly tbh but Steph's cancer storyline will cause a bit of drama in terms of their relationship...

[DrunkerThanMoses]

:( And I thought this paul guy was axing retarded boring characters.

How has duncan, elliot, gilly and india lived?

-Prays to god-

Bus explodes with these 4 characters in it!

I do actually think there will be more axings planned.. first he needs to get rid of those who are going and introduce their replacements then get them settled in.

Some of the actors are still under contract so they could be let go when that has finished as Hollyoaks normally do 1 or 2 year contracts for their actors each year;).

[DrunkerThanMoses]

:) Well as soon as Gilly is stabbed off i will start watching.

Shame I really liked the idea of stephs cancer storyline but if i wartch it, it will be her crying to gilly and i would have to see the twats gilly face again.

Rather have dinner with hitler, stalin and the current pope then watch him.

Kent Riley has confirmed that he has filmed his leaving scene for Hollyoaks.

The 26-year-old actor, who has played Zac Ramsay on the Channel 4 teen soap for four years, told fans on Twitter that he has shot his exit.

He wrote: "I am not yet finished filming that is next Thursday! Ha but I am riding on the crest of a victorious coloured wave!

"A busride with 2 others after 3 and a half years in exactly what I wanted! Tweeters my ********** living room is still unfinished!! I am livid! On the brightside I have just filmed my leaving scene in the oaks (sic)."

Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks pulled an average audience of 640k (4.3%) yesterday evening, early figures show.

The screening, which saw Josh take the stand in court, drew the serial's lowest ever 6.30pm ratings.

:( I really do hope C4 keep faith with the show. :rolleyes: at some of the comments on DS from people who have never seen it and most of the criticism the show has had been mostly constructive:thumbs:.

Josh is a crap actor and that whole storyline was awful.

A future Hollyoaks storyline will see an alien land on Earth and befriend one of the soap's characters.

Kevin the Alien will arrive from Aecyron Proxima *Centauri – a red dwarf star in the *constellation of Centauri, reports the Daily Star Sunday.

Viewers of the Chester-based soap, which recorded it's lowest ever viewing figures on Friday, will see sci-fi geek Elliot Bevan (Garnon Davies) attempt to convince friends and family that Kevin is a real alien.

"Everyone knows Hollyoaks can get away with different storylines. But having an alien land in the *village is just out of this world," an insider told the paper. “The soap’s bosses have to *convince viewers that they’re *actually watching an alien *walking around the village."

“Some of the cast actually burst out laughing when they were told about Kevin. But they have *already started filming the storyline so it’s *going to happen."

The insider added that boss Paul *Marquess is "certain it will be a success”.

A rumour I saw on DS is that apparently..

Carley Stenson decided to quit HO after 10 years and that Steph will die from Cancer:(.. if true poor Tom thats like almost his whole family apart from Mandy and Cindy who have died:(.

Hoping it's not true:).

[Jords]

Nooooooooooooooooo I hope its not true too Reggie!

[bbfan1991]

Nooooooooooooooooo I hope its not true too Reggie!

Due to poor ratings at the moment the show could be axed by C4 if they lose faith in it.. look at what happened to Brookside:(.

Theres going to be some PR with the revamp and the new producers storylines beginning from 5th July, so hope that some who've switched off are tempted back to see at first what is in store:).

[bbfan1991]

Michaela McQueen is leaving HO:(.

There won't be an ALIEN joining the show confirmed by DS and HO stars on Twitter:D, it will be something in Elliot's mind as he is a mad science geek PMSL:laugh:.

LOL did anyone just hear them play the BB9 teaser music when the doctor was talking to Steph about her cancer?

[bbfan1991]

Gutted now Steph confirmed to be leaving:(. Carley Stenson has done great to stay with the show for 10 years so I wish her well with her new career in Musical Theatre, just hope that Steph does not die:bawling:.

I wonder who will look after Tom now once she goes.. Cindy?.

In a good way these people going means that there will be new characters and hopefully interesting characters if the producers can cast people who can act and not just on looks!.

I think there is more going tbh with more coming in... Hollyoaks has always been a show where people come and go but with the good cast members like The McQueens, Ste etc they need to keep the actors happy so there is at least some familiar faces around.

They can't help it if an actor decides to leave the show but some of the axes have been long overdue...

[bbfan1991]

Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard is reportedly considering quitting the show.

Pickard, who plays Tony Hutchinson in the soap, is said to be unhappy about the treatment of his brother and co-star John, who plays Dominic Reilly. John is rumoured to have been axed from the show and only discovered when his name was missing from the filming schedule.

A source told the Daily Star Sunday: "Nick was disgusted at the way his brother was treated. John’s been in the show five years and had no idea they were planning to axe him.

"The way he found out from a crew member was terrible. When Nick was told about it he was fuming. He’s not at all happy.

"A lot of people have left or are going and the ratings are the lowest they’ve ever been in the show’s history. The way his brother was treated was the final straw. He’s now seriously thinking about leaving the show."

A Hollyoaks spokesperson told Digital Spy: "It is not our policy to comment on artists' contracts, however we can confirm that John has recently shot the new Hollyoaks titles which are due to transmit on 5th July to coincide with new producer Paul Marquess's first episodes."


I so hope he doesn't leave if this is true:(, however if John and Dom have been axed then I don't agree with the way that he's been told at all.

I know that John is Nick's brother but the character of Dom has been quite pointless for a while now and he can't be expected just to hang around because his brother is a Hollyoaks legend!.

[bbfan1991]

Hollyoaks boss Paul Marquess has dismissed suggestions that the show could be axed by Channel 4 for poor ratings.

The teen soap's viewing figures have dropped below 1m on a number of occasions this year, with one recent episode pulling in just 640,000. The disappointing numbers have caused some speculation that the serial could be facing an uncertain future.

However, Marquess is currently heading up a period of rejuvenation at the show after taking office at its home at Lime Pictures in Liverpool in January. In recent months, he has axed a number of characters, cast three new families and promised to take the programme back to its roots.

Speaking in a new interview with the Liverpool Echo, the former Brookside and The Bill producer insisted that talk of Hollyoaks coming to an end is "bizarre".

He commented: "It is important for Lime Pictures and for Liverpool to keep Hollyoaks as strong as it is. I've had no meetings with Channel 4 about ratings."

Discussing the soap's current revamp, Marquess added: "It's all about word of mouth. I knew The Bill was doing well when I heard a group of girls talking about an episode on the Tube. It is an exciting time for Hollyoaks and there is already a real buzz on site."

Marquess's appointment as Hollyoaks' series producer came following the departure of Lucy Allan, who took on the role for just over 12 months.


Good!:), there is a lot of problems with HO thats no secret but I do think they can turn it around..

C4 need to keep the faith and if they did axe Hollyoaks then I don't think they would do a new soap so it's HO or nothing really...

[bbfan1991]

Nick Pickard has dismissed reports claiming that he is leaving Hollyoaks.

The 35-year-old actor, who plays Tony Hutchinson on the teen soap, insisted that there is "absolutely no truth" in suggestions he is angry at the Channel 4 show's producers.

He added in a statement: "My new storyline with the Sharpe family is on screen this week and I couldn't be happier with [series producer] Paul [Marquess's] work so far. I have no intention of going anywhere anytime soon!"

According to Holy Soap, a Hollyoaks spokesperson also confirmed that Pickard is staying with the serial.

I'm so glad it's not true!:).

Nico Mirallegro has confessed that he felt emotional when he filmed his final Hollyoaks scenes.

The actor bowed out from the Channel 4 soap earlier this year and fans are about to see his last episode in the role of Barry 'Newt' Newton.

In an interview with Holy Soap, the 19-year-old was asked whether he shed any tears as his time with the serial came to an end.

Mirallegro replied: "Yeah, there were a few tears but they weren't scripted, they were genuine. Helen [Pearson] and I were sad saying goodbye in the goodbye scenes.

"I've really enjoyed my three years at Hollyoaks. I worked with the most amazing people."

Asked who he plans to keep in touch with, he replied: "I lived with Ashley Taylor-Dawson, who plays Darren. We are like brothers in a way. I am still in touch with him. And Nick Pickard and Jimmy McKenna. I still keep in touch with everyone."

Mirallegro recently announced that he had landed a role in forthcoming movie McQueen.

[bbfan1991]

Former Hollyoaks actor Gerard McCarthy has landed a role at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

The 29-year-old, who recently filmed his final scenes as bisexual crossdresser Kris Fisher, has been cast as Fenton in Shakespearean comedy The Merry Wives Of Windsor.

The humorous play follows womaniser Sir John Falstaff, who sets about wooing two wealthy married women.

Speaking to DS, McCarthy said: "I'm ecstatic to be working at Shakespeare's Globe. The Merry Wives Of Windsor is a hilarious play and I'm looking forward to working with such an exceptional cast, directed by Christopher Luscombe."

Luscombe commented: "The audition for Fenton in The Merry Wives of Windsor was quite a test - we needed a handsome, witty young actor, who could handle some really tricky Shakespearean verse, play the guitar and sing beautifully!"

He added: "We cast the net far and wide, but Gerard was the clear winner - he made it all look easy, which is a great gift. I'm really looking forward to working with him."

McCarthy is due to begin rehearsals within the next few weeks and will make his stage debut on August 14. The play runs at The Globe until October 2, before touring to Los Angeles and New York.

The production then returns to the UK in November for several dates around the country.

Yay:).

Samantha Giles has revealed that she is delighted to reprise her role as the "fabulously manipulative" Val Holden on Hollyoaks.

The 39-year-old actress, who also played Bernice Thomas in Emmerdale, will return to screens in late July, reports Holy Soap.

"I'm thrilled to be back working with the girls and of course the lovely Brian Bovell (Leo Valentine)," she commented.

"It feels like I was never away and it's great to come back and play the fabulously manipulative Val - and this time without the restraint of a big baby bump!"

After joining Hollyoaks in 2008, Giles's alter ego was sent to Spain to coincide with the star's maternity leave last year.

Hollyoaks' rejuvenation process is continuing this week as show bosses officially announced the signings of three more cast members.

Cheryl's brother Brendan, McQueen cousin Bart and Hollyoaks Later character Lynsey have all begun filming with the Channel 4 teen soap and are due to arrive on screen at the beginning of August.

Actor Emmett Scanlan takes on the role of the soap's new bad boy Brendan Brady.

Evil to the core, Brendan knows no bounds and will happily do anything and everything to ensure he reaches his end game. His scheming, manipulative tendencies are clear to those who don't know him, while his sister Cheryl (Bronagh Waugh) won't hear a bad word said against him.

Cheryl's best friend Lynsey - played by Karen Hassan, below right - also turns up in the village at the same time and manages to ruffle a few feathers on her way in.

Meanwhile, the McQueen clan collects another cousin when they meet ladies' man Bart (Jonny Clarke) at his step-mother's funeral. At first glance, his innocent exterior is enough to convince Myra to take him under her wing. However, his tearaway history of ASBOs and police warnings soon becomes common knowledge.

Producer Paul Marquess said: "This is a really exciting time for Hollyoaks and Brendan, Lynsey and Bart bring more fun, drama and sexiness to the show. "

Meanwhile, Kris Fisher (Gerard McCarthy), Zak Ramsay (Kent Riley) and Jake Dean (Kevin Sacre) are due to bow out of the Channel 4 soap during the same week as Marquess's new characters arrive.

He added: "Of course we’re sad to say goodbye to Kris, Zak and Jake but we wish the boys well in their future endeavours and we look forward to the new residents causing some trouble in the village!"

The Des racist storyline is so random:conf:, it's a way of making the audience dislike the character and not care about him now he is leaving.. he was nothing like that at the start either.

I know, again the actor wasn't bad but the character was awful:mad:. Thing about Warren is that when he was really vile it was great to watch, he had his good side too but HO were in danger of putting him in panto villain mode before he left.

I hope Brendan lives up to his reputation!.

Yeah, don't think they will get as good actor as Jamie Lomas for a while now though. They really need to lose that student flat they've been using for like 6 years now though. And it annoys me the odd ways some of them happen to move in.

Sounds like they will be giving that a refurbishment now for the new students:).

McQueens great in tonights E4 episode now the truth about Who Killed Calvin is out, glad they didn't drag it on for ages.

[bbfan1991]

Sounds like there is another departure, looks like there will be another replacement coming in...



(Stephen Uppal) Only 6 more episodes left to shoot wow the time has flown by!

Sorry guys yes I decided to leave a while back. I've had a good time but always wanted to leave after a few years. Bye bye Ravi Roy!

[Tom4784]

I liked Ravi, I guess this is when Eva comes into it properly then.

[Visage]

It's starting to pick up a bit now, Although Kyle needs to be recast or written out. He's about as intimidating as a baby panda.

He really is bad isn't he?

What were they thinking when they cast him in the role?

Looking forward to the new family starting next week

Yeah but that was because Lucy Allan had wasted the characters potential and just gave her lots of comedy storylines when Carley Stenson is just as good at the dramatic stuff. Can't say I blame her for quitting now after how long she has been there...

I liked Niall:D, one minute you hated him and the next you liked him.. much better than Warren IMO. The actor did a real bunjee jump when Niall committed suicide from the cliff:shocked:.

Can't wait for the next Hollyoaks Later, it involves the McQueens and some of the new families so far...

[Jords]

I love the new family, I thought I was gonna hate Heidi but shes brilliant! :joker:
Jen needs to put a smile on her face.

[bbfan1991]

Mitzeee's (real name Anne) first episode today, she's a wannabe glamour model:D, i'm impressed already and with the actress too.

[Jords]

Is she having an affair with the father of the new family (dont know his name)?

[Visage]

Yes, I'm liking them too, Heidi looks like she'll be a handful though. I did like her when she was in the Bill a few years back.

Can't wait to find out what Carl's secret is though:dance:

[bbfan1991]

Is she having an affair with the father of the new family (dont know his name)?

Yes Mitzeee had an affair with Carl and wants to start it again:shocked:.


Theres going to be a big disaster stunt in November which will kill of a few people who are leaving.. Ravi's last scenes will be then and perhaps he is one of them who will die?.

[Jords]

Yes, I'm liking them too, Heidi looks like she'll be a handful though. I did like her when she was in the Bill a few years back.

Id imagine so Reggie, or somebody he likes gets killed which causes him to leave Hollyoaks as he feels hes got nothing left to stay for, kinda thing?

Yeah I think she'll be high maintanence too. :laugh: Cant remember her in The Bill!

With all these new additions, it sure feels very promising for the future:dance:

[Jords]

OH YES! Wow she looks so different. :shocked:

[bbfan1991]

Sheree Murphy only signed a 6 month contract as Eva, that will probably be extended because Ravi is leaving and it means that Anita will be on her own.

HO can then develop Eva's character and get her involved with the other characters plus Sheree wanted to return to work:).

[Jords]

Mitzeee looks so much like Cheryl Cole in some angles!

[bbfan1991]

Loretta's last week:(, they could have kept her and developed the baddie aspect of her character even though it happened randomly.

[bbfan1991]

Mitzeee looks so much like Cheryl Cole in some angles!

She's pretty:love:, larger than life and twice the trouble:joker:.

Cousin Ann! Oooer didnt see that coming.

Loretta. :devil:

Still a long way to go for Hollyoaks to sort itself out but it's definetly on the up:).

[Tom4784]

HO's on the path of recovery, I've watched a full week for the first time in ages.

Loretta annoys me, her character has just wasted and this storyline has rushed written all over it. They should have tried to salvage something from the axed storyline really (but not make it about child murder obviously). I like the Costellos and I actually like Jem now as before I felt she was utterly pointless, Has it been said when the other two families are coming into it?

I can't wait for the disaster as well, I can see it being the turning point for Hollyoaks.

The Sharpes turn up again in August I think, makes sense so that the audience can get used to one family first instead of having them all there at the same time:).

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Im also enjoying the lorreta stroyline, shame she got intresting towards the end, Im angry at the change of personaitly, same with des being racist?

Shame her orignal storyline was scrapped, would of be great

['Conor]

i despise des's character always did

['Conor]

they gotta bring Claire back :D but not for a while so it can be a shocker return

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I say put clare and loretta in scream 4 :) Mohahaha

[bbfan1991]

they gotta bring Claire back :D but not for a while so it can be a shocker return

I loved Clare.. her last return really was pathetic and Lucy Allan ruined it:bawling:. She could cause trouble for all the new characters LOL, they need a bad girl!.

[Tom4784]

I say keep Claire out of it, she had a perfect exit a few years ago and they ruined it with her coming back to kill Warren.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

I must say I dislike the new familys sons (jems brothers), they seem useless. I love the model girl who came into it as well.

And..... I am ashamed to say this... Im thoguht duncan was quite funny this week.

(Call a mental hostipal now)

Never liked Des either, and making him randomly racist is pretty pointless.

I can't stand Des and Duncan either, although I think Des leaves with Kris and Zak and Jake leaves separately now:conf:.

http://i1.cdnds.net/10/21/M/soaps_sheree_murphy.jpg

Sheree Murphy is to take a break from Hollyoaks due to family commitments, Digital Spy can reveal.

The actress - who has played Anita Roy's long-lost mother Eva since February - told producer Paul Marquess earlier this year that she would be unable to stick with the soap beyond her original contract.

Murphy had made her decision after learning that her husband Harry Kewell's football career would soon take him to the US. As the couple began making plans for a Stateside move, Hollyoaks bosses started to work on an exit storyline for Eva.

However, as it has since been confirmed that Kewell will remain with his current club Galatasaray for the 2010-2011 football season, the situation has now changed. While Eva will disappear from screens as originally planned, the Hollyoaks team have said that they are already devising a comeback plot for the character.

Speaking of her alter ego's upcoming exit, Murphy commented: "Sadly, because we thought that my husband's football career was going to take us to the States, I was unable to sign another contract with Hollyoaks. However, our circumstances have now changed and I've told Paul that if storylines allow, I would love to continue in the role of Eva.

"Hollyoaks is going from strength to strength under Paul's guidance and I've absolutely loved acting again. Paul has been lovely and I'm very hopeful that the door will be left open."

Paul Marquess added: "I'm a huge fan of Sheree's and I think Eva is a great character who really comes into her own in the next few months. The stuff that viewers will soon see on screen is absolutely hilarious between Eva and an embarrassed Anita.

"Sheree will be taking a little break on screen because of her family commitments, but we're already thinking about how we'll bring her back."

Murphy, who has three children with Kewell, previously played the role of Emmerdale barmaid Tricia Dingle for six years.

Im not too fussed on the new characters.

I like Heldi and her husband and mitzieee.

I think cheryls brother could become intresting, the rest are meh at the moment.

[bbfan1991]

The Loft is going to be renamed to Chez Chez:joker:.

The Sharpes are back soon, can't wait for Hollyoaks Later too. Whats good is that the producers have promised that storylines won't drag on for ages and that there will be lots of cliffhangers etc. They need some new sets also IMO.

So on the new characters

Costellos:
I like Carl he seems alright good actor, Heidi is meh kinda annoys me, love mitzee think shes brilliant, Riley & Seth are so pointless and cant act for their life, Jasmine is a promising character good actress aswell.

Sharpes:
Dont really like these, well only seen a bit of them anyway.

Brendan:
I like him, he seems really like a bad guy, will make the show more intresting deffo.

Bart:
Hes cool, gd lookin chap, does not look 15 though! Definatley a McQueen fits right in!

Kevin the Alien:
Possibly the most ridiculous storyline ever.

[Jords]

The Costellos are a great addition, the 2 sons seem pretty pointless I agree but Carl, Heidi, Jaz and Mitzeee are interesting.

Hollyoaks star Carley Stenson has secured her debut West End role.

Holy Soap reports that the actress will join the cast of Legally Blonde: The Musical as Margot. In June, it was announced that she would leave the Channel 4 soap after almost ten years playing Steph Cunningham.

When she confirmed her decision to leave Hollyoaks, Stenson highlighted musical theatre as being where her interests lay.

"I'm ready for new challenges and I'm looking forward to pursuing a career in musical theatre," she said at the time.

Denise Van Outen will also join the show's cast as beautician Paulette.

Stenson will make her debut appearance on October 25 at the Savoy Theatre.

Well done Carley:)!.
