Big, massive Hollyoaks spoliers!


The cast and crew of Hollyoaks have been out on-location filming the climax to one of soap's ongoing storylines – near a cliff.

The final chapter of the 'Who Pushed Clare?' plot reaches a sticky end next month when the individual who attempted to kill Clare Cunningham (Gemma Bissix) by pushing her off The Loft balcony is finally revealed.

On learning the truth, Clare exacts revenge on one of the five suspects – Louise (Roxanne McKee), Warren (Jamie Lomas), Max (Matt Littler), O.B. (Darren Jeffries) and Calvin (Ricky Whittle) – by kidnapping someone very close to them.

A Hollyoaks source exclusively revealed to Digital Spy: "When Clare finally figures out who attempted to kill her, she stops at nothing to get her revenge.

"She kidnaps someone very near and dear to the culprit and speeds off in her car. But when a high-speed chase ensues, one car goes over the edge of a cliff…"

They added: "It's the most dramatic episode we've even filmed."

These shock scenes are due to air toward the end of September.

Guy Burnet's character, Craig Dean, will be leaving the show around the same time, while Hannah Ashworth's (Emma Rigby) anorexia storyline reaches a deathly end when either she or friend Melissa (Carla Chases) dies after their eating disorder takes its toll.

[Arneldo]

I'm really getting into this Hannah/Melissa storyline. It's mad that this has been going on since before christmas.

[\PJ/]

Hollyoaks my opinion so don't have ago:
At first hollyoaks was a great soap laughs cheery characters fat women fat blokes ugly people and only 2-3 blonde girls on set but now on hollyoaks if youre not blonde or have a blonde piece in your hair or your thin pretty have a fashion sense don't bother going for the audittion and eveyone seems to be a student in the soap to HMMMM unlike real life but i suppose it gets viewers soory if this offened you tanser.

Hollyoaks have announced that two new members of the Valentine’s family will be joining the show.

Danny and Lauren Valentine will be dumped on the doorstep of Calvin’s this September by their mum Vivien. Vivien tells Calvin and Sasha that Danny and Lauren are their half-brother and sister.

Speaking to the official Hollyoaks website, David Judge who will play Danny says

“Danny and Lauren certainly make an entrance when their suitcase comes smashing through the window, Danny’s mum dumps him and Lauren with Leo and demands he looks after them while she sorts out her housing problems. But it’s when Danny refers to Leo as 'dad' that Calvin and Sasha begin to realise their father has been leading a double life."

The new arrivals arrive on screen from the 6th September. Danny is played by David Judge, Lauren is played by Dominique Jackson.

[Chrizzle]

Nooo not Dominique Jackson, shes really annoying

Spoilers for 27th-31st ...


Monday, August 27

Warren is back to his old self after his release from jail, making dark threats to Clare and baiting Russell and Calvin.

There are plenty of tears at the McQueens as the girls break up with their partners one by one.

Warren is fearful of losing Katy if she opts for a university down south and suggests that he is willing to make amends with Justin if it prevents losing Katy.

Sasha is in heaven when Fletch invites her for a smoothie, but everything is ruined when her arch-rival Michaela appears on the scene.

Tuesday, August 28

Tormented by thoughts of her lost baby, an unbalanced Jacqui vows never to be sucked into other people's lives. Jacqui is on the path to self-destruction as she steals a bottle of champagne from Drive 'N' Buy and struts drunkenly through the village.

Louise is concerned that Warren is falling back into his old ways. She is hopeful that he's intent on changing when he confesses he got decked by Russ and humbly concedes he deserved it, but Louise wonders how many more husbands will be coming after him.

Although she hates herself for it, Jessica cannot stop her descent into the nether world of deception. Myra is frustrated that her daughters are doing little to win back their men.

Wednesday, August 29

After spending the night in a cell Jacqui is ashamed of her behaviour, but she seems to be on a mission to self-destruct. Tony tells her he loves her and that they have to try to move on from the miscarriage, but Jacqui's not sure that she can.

Rhys and Josh return, oblivious to what's gone on at home, and regale Gilly with tales of their conquests. Gilly is uncomfortable with the situation and has to wait for an opportunity to tell them about Hannah. Hannah is sick of Gilly's interference and goes to find Melissa, but she's terrified when Melissa collapses in the village.

Darren is in the mood for love and takes Zoe on a romantic picnic.

Thursday, August 30

Clive storms back into Jessica's life in time to save Zak's television from being seized by the bailiff who assumes that it's hers.

Hannah feels all alone in the world now that Melissa is in hospital. Her troubles mount when Suzanne grounds her after finding out Melissa had been to the house although she is banned.

Gilly is horrified when Hannah cries rape just as Rhys and Suzanne enter the house. Darren lies to Zak that he has bedded Zoe, but is later forced into an embarrassing climb down and has to admit he still has to score.

Unhappy with Jake for letting the spare room to Russ, Nancy's patience is wearing thin at his reluctance to kick him out. When Russ tears up a photo of Mercedes, Nancy demands that that he gets a grip and sort out his life.

Friday, August 31

After falsely accusing Gilly, Hannah is mortified at how her lies have spiralled out of control. Hannah is visibly shocked to find Melissa hooked to drips and monitors when she visits her at the hospital.

Jessica confesses to Zak that her dad made her flirt with his business associate as he ripped him off. Nancy is increasingly wound up by Russ's laddish behaviour. It is clear to Jake that Russ is on a final warning with Nancy when he drunkenly rushes to the loo to be sick, making enough noise to wake up the baby.

And after a series of mini-disasters, Darren and Zoe are beginning to fear that they're not compatible

[Arneldo]

A sexy rock chick with a dark and mysterious past will throw lives into turmoil when she descends on Hollyoaks village later this year.

Sinead Moynihan – who stared as Ashley Webb in the BBC Three comedy Drop Dead Gorgeous - joins the cast of Hollyoaks as smart and sassy Beth Clement.

It's not long before Beth falls for the charms of Rhys Ashworth (Andrew Moss) but their relationship soon hits rock bottom when her past resurfaces, much to the shock of everybody around her

Speaking of her character, the 25-year-old actress said: "I'm thrilled to be joining the cast of Hollyoaks and to be playing the character of enigmatic rock chick Beth. She's a quick-witted and independent young woman who loves indie and rock music as well as having a real lust for life."

She added: "Beth's got some great storylines lined up and I'm looking forward to the viewers' reactions as both her character and relationship with Rhys develops."

An insider told DS: "Beth's going to be central to a massive autumn storyline for Hollyoaks which will turn certain characters' worlds upside down."

Sinead's first scenes are scheduled to air on Friday, October 5.

[Arneldo]

Craig is such a tosser, I feel sorry for JP.

And poor Carmel! I don't like seeing her upset, She is usually so happy and cheerful! :sad:

It looks like spike is sticking around for a while, now he has a job in The Dog.

[Princess]

I can't believe Craig proposed!!!! The absolute tosser.

[Chrizzle]

Oh my...

I have a theory... Clare threw herself over the rail?
Katy just said 'Its almost as if... she planned it all' but in a very suggestive way.

Doubt it. Before the push we saw Claire through the person's eye's.

[Arneldo]

This picture would suggest it is Melissa that dies and not Hannah.

Also I'm really happy they found out the truth about Hannah.

[Chrizzle]

That part when she was putting make up on Mellissa, actually scared me. It literally frightened me :laugh:

It was VERY well done to try and capture the scariness of what the girls are doing. This storyline has been dealt with brilliantly.

[Sophii3x]

New spoilers for the John Paul/Craig storyline..


Sarah's engagement news sets the village abuzz with excitement, but Craig's heart sinks as he ponders John Paul finding out. Though they hold serious doubts, both Mike and Jack find themselves swept along by the euphoria. At a party Frankie quickly rustles up to celebrate, an apologetic Craig has his work cut out explaining to John Paul how he loves both Sarah and him.

For John Paul, it is the ultimate act of betrayal. Despite his despair, he manages to get Craig in a passionate clinch upstairs at The Dog. But John Paul has an agenda and a plan to separate Sarah and Craig forever

Sarah's engagement party comes to a shuddering halt when she finds Craig upstairs in bed with John Paul. It's a chaotic scene as a distraught Sarah has to be pulled away as she reins blow after blow on Craig. Craig's denial of his gay relationship rings hollow as John Paul admits to it in the presence of party guests. A sickened Frankie turns on John Paul for corrupting Craig, while Mercedes quits her job in support of her brother. When John Paul turns up outside the pub, Craig takes out his anger and frustration on him. Having had them both, it looks like Craig's going to end up all alone.

Meanwhile, a distraught Sarah stuns Nancy by declaring she still loves Craig - despite his betrayal. When Craig visits her to explain himself, she tries to convince him they can salvage their relationship by going to Dublin. John Paul, however, is shattered by Nancy's bombshell that Craig's at Sarah's begging her to take him back. Unaware that Craig has told Sarah he wants John Paul, John Paul refuses to open the door when Craig visits...

Meanwhile, Everyone's on edge at the McQueens' and the Osbornes' after the engagement fiasco. Frankie is anxious for Craig to sort things out with Sarah. Myra feels sorry for her son's pain but demands he stay away from Craig for Sarah's sake. When they meet in the village, it doesn't take much to get the families to square up and trade insults. As they bicker, Craig and John Paul re-unite and take the opportunity to slip away unnoticed. As the dust settles, the families are resigned to the situation - Craig and John Paul are back together.

John Paul wonders if Craig is ready to face the outside world. He's noticed that Craig is glad to play the happy couple with no one around but moves away too quickly when people appear. As Darren's relentless gay-baiting drives him up the wall, Craig loses it and takes a swing at him but is pulled away by John Paul. Although John Paul reassures him Darren will tire of the jokes, Craig is clearly bothered. He comes up with a decision which he thinks is a perfect solution for both him and John Paul.

[Arneldo]

Today's Hollyoaks on E4 was brilliant!

i'll put in spoilers for those who watch on C4 ...


It was just so exciting and sad! I don't like Craig anymore - I don't care if he is fit (Okay, I care a little). JP did the right thing. Sarah was good tonight as well, I felt for her. I didn't like they way they switched to Warren and Co. halfway - I don't care the friggin Loft! lol Frankie really annoyed me tonight aswell - Also is anyone else really starting to like Darren?

[Kristen]

I was so happy Sarah found out last night.
Was hillarious when Sasha's random half-brother was cracking onto Mercedes.

[Arneldo]

It was Justin! Wowzers! I had a feeling it wasnt one of the suspects but I thought it might be Sasha, not Justin.

[supernoodles!]

Hollyoaks has been so so sad this week,i was nearly crying watching all the hannah/mellissa scenes i had a big lump in my throat when melissa dies it was so sad.Then it diddnt get much better on thrusday lol,when sarah found out about jp and craig i just thought it was really sad it is pretty close to home,not becuase one of my bf has ever done what craig has lol but becuase ive been hurt in a really big way by a bf before.I think it was really well done though and I enjoyed it.I do have one problem though,why do hollyoaks do the saddest storylines ever!lolLike whenever soemone dies or leave in say corrie,im never affected but whenever something like that happens in hollyoaks its so beleivable for me and i get really caught up in it and emotional lol.Like when Becca died,Grace died and Mandy left those episodes killed me lol.I guess I must just be a big softy lol

[supernoodles!]

Im setting up a John Paul and Craig fan club,i dont know if there already is one but anyhow ill go ahead,let me know if you want to be a member:hello:

[Rebecca123]

Hollyoaks has been amazing this week! I have loved all the JP/Craig stuff Guy Burnet and James Sutton are amazing actors!! Loui Batley who plays Sarah has been great too!!

[Billy]

I cant wait for him to leave, that way maybe the other characters will get storylines

[XxShortyxX]

I ent really bothered aboyt JP & Craig, that storyline is boring now. I want Hollyoaks to get back to the Hannah storyline, I am really enjoying that, it's so well actted and emotional, and the best storyline ever in Hollyoaks IMO.

Emma who plays Hannah is the best actress ever in Hollyoaks, she defo desever the best actress award at the next Soap Awards.

[Billy]

God Nooooo Hannah does my head in. I think the supporting cast around her are better than she is (the ashworths, sarah and nancy)

[XxShortyxX]

I don't think they are. I think she has played the character of Hannah so well, the eating disorder storyline has been actted so well, no one can say she can't act, she has been brill! IMO she is the only one in Hollyaoks that can act. Sarah, Nancy, Clarie are all good, but that ent as good as Hannah. I feel so sorry for her, the storyline is very emotional and will help alot of young people, especailly young girls.

[supernoodles!]

I dont want to watch craig leave it will be sooooooo sad

[XxShortyxX]

Maybe Craig will come back in the near future. Maybe the door has been left opened for him, as I do remember him saying in a interview that Hollyoaks is his home and he loves it.

[supernoodles!]

I do hope so,its been all sad episodes lately and theres even more to come.there really good just i get so into them and i feel all sad ha ha

[Arneldo]

THIS summer may have been a wash-out - but things are certainly hotting up in Hollyoaks with new arrival Summer Shaw.

And the 24-year-old actress, played by Summer Strallen, is ready to cause some trouble.

Smitten O.B. (Darren Jeffries) is the first to fall for the beauty and the pair embark on an unlikely friendship.

While her pursuit of West End fame rubs resident drama queen Steph Dean (Carley Stenson) up the wrong way and it's not long before a bitter rivalry is born.

A Hollyoaks source said: "Steph takes it personally as she's been the only actress in the village for some time - especially with a drama degree!

"But with a romance between Steph and Max blossoming in the background, how will Steph react when she realises that Summer is preying on Max's best friend O.B.?"

Speaking of her new role, Summer said: "I've auditioned for Hollyoaks before so to get the part this time round was fantastic!

"The storyline sounds like it will be lots of fun and hopefully I can bring some of my own experiences to the character."

Summer's first scenes are due to air on 1 October at 6.30pm on Channel 4.

[Billy]

She ends up goin out with Rhys I think

[Ruth*Star]

Hollyoaks this week has been exceptional, it's been amazing, its bound to get awards now.

It has been brilliant and is underrated as a soap. It deserve to win Best Storyline for Hannah's anorexia IMO, but it will lose out to Corrie or EE.

[Tom4784]

I've only started watching since friday but it is quite good!

[Chrizzle]

Two amazing episodes today.

I was stuck to the screen.
I've hated the JP Craig storyline recently, as much as I am glad to see it end, it did end brilliantly.

[Billy]

IM not convinced Claires dead, but then ti did look like she died. The only bad thing was Katy, the girl still cant act, and I kind of hoped shed come out and suprise us tonight

[Arneldo]

Same Billy. I don't think Clare is dead. She might just be taking a break - I' hope she makes a return very soon :thumbs: In dramatic style.

Best quote of the is past few weeks..
Clare to Katy before bringing her to the car: "Can't forget the baggage.." :laugh2:

[Billy]

Aha Lmao that had me in stitches. I really thought for a minute Max was gonna save her :( but then he didnt :( I LOVE Steph at the moment, and I just wish Katy died

[Dan_]

Another great quote this week when Claire asked about proving Justin was dead:
Warren:"Sorry I didn't have time to pick up the death certificate!"

I so agree! IMO she should win best actress at the next Soap Awards. Emma is a fab actress and has given outstanding actting.

[Fat.Rat]

i used to HATE hollyoaks, but since Claire came in it, iv not stopped watching it!!!!:hello::hello:

[Billy]

After tonight, Ive kinda warmed to Katy, but i still cant stand Hannah, and i HATE HATE HATE HATE John Paul

[Arneldo]

JP shoud tell Sarah that it was Craig who came up to him and , crying, and kissed him. I love James Suttin, he is amazing.

[Billy]

The thing that annoys me about JP is that he showed how much he cared about only himself, by the way he told Sarah. So what if he was fed up of being messed around, he could have waited until after teh party, what he did was really nasty

[beanny]

I met WILL From HOLLYOAKS today =]

[Tom4784]

That ending was so surprising! I didn't know Claire was alive!

[XxShortyxX]

I luv Claire! That was grate at the end when she looked into the camera.

JP was going through a tough time as well. He loved Craig just as much as Sarah did, if not more. Craig him time and time again that he would break up with Sarah, JP was doing what he felt was right but went around it the wrong way. He was always going to come out if it the bad guy.

[Kristen]

Billy told me last night that the end was amazing and I knew he was a Claire fan so I sort of imagined it would be something to do with her.
At first I thought it was Craig in the red stilletos but then it turned out to be her. It was amazing!

Lmao :laugh:

At first I thought it was either Craig coming back, or JP going.

But was even more happy to see it was Claire :cheer2:

[Arneldo]

I thought it was Lisa (Gemma Atkins) or Mandy (Sara-Jayne Dunn), then after a couple of seconds I remembered - Clare!

[XxShortyxX]

lol, Oh yeah Lisa is coming back :bigsmile: She is one of my favs!

Is Mandy coming back again then?

[Billy]

Gemma said on tv a few days ago that she isnt coming back. I LOVED the ending so much, it was amazing I was SO happy

[Rebecca123]

Kris is back on Friday!! So can't wait, I adore him <3

[gothgirl]

Yay I love Kris:lovedup:he's lovely and so funny:hello:

[Billy]

Hopefully he can knock some sense into Jess. Cant wait for the Freshers Ball

[Arneldo]

Can't wait fro Kris to return, he is definitely one of the funniest characters.

Thanks for the spoilers, sounds good. Poor Hannah :sad:

[Rebecca123]

I'm not sure if any of you have seen this but there is a new interview with Emma Rigby (Hannah Ashworth) on the Hollyoaks official site. Here it is if anyone wants to read it :bigsmile:

How old were you when you first decided you wanted to become an actress?

I think I wanted to act from the age of about three! I've always loved acting and I've always been the kind of person who you just can't shut up, so I think that it's great that I get to act - non-stop talking.


Are you anything like your character in real life?

No I'm nothing at all like my character. We're completely different, but I really enjoy playing somebody who's so different to me.


Has it been difficult playing someone who suffers from anorexia?

It has been quite a challenging role to play, because I’m not an expert on the topic. But I've done a lot of research to make sure I do the best job that I can. I've found it quite enjoyable in some respects though, because it's been great for me as an actor to have something I can get my teeth into performance-wise.


Have you found it hard tackling such a serious issue?

Yes it's been quite tough, especially with some of the scenes that have occurred such as Melissa's death, when Hannah is force-fed, and things like that. It has been challenging. Often I've come off set and felt really upset and sad because the scenes are quite distressing.


What do you do to switch off when you get home?

I usually switch off by going to the gym and becoming motivated because exercise makes you happy anyway. Or sometimes I just read a book and get an early night.


How has it been filming the episodes for this storyline? What have you found the most challenging?

The most challenging - or should I say the most upsetting - was probably the episode after Melissa's death when I was having scenes where Hannah thought that Melissa was still alive, and also when I was explaining to Nancy and Sarah why I was anorexic. I found those scenes really upsetting because I could imagine some people going through that. Suffering with anorexia and feeling that unhappy with themselves and that depressed that they have no one to turn to that that's what they feel like.


How did you get yourself into that frame of mind?

The script was fantastic and reading through the script made me upset anyway, and when I'm doing upsetting scenes I tend to think about things that make me upset and that I feel sad about and I use that emotion to do the scene.


Did you have to research into eating disorders before you started filming?

Yes I definitely did. I researched on the internet, had meetings with the Eating Disorder Association, and read several memoirs of people who'd suffered with anorexia.


Have you ever known anyone with an eating disorder?

Yes, some friends of mine suffered with anorexia and have now recovered so I've learnt from that experience and obviously a lot of people do know somebody that's suffered and I think that's something to take into account, how common it is. It's not something that happens to a minority it happens loads - one million people suffer from an eating disorder in the UK alone.


What advice would you give Hannah if you were the only person that she confided in about her eating disorder?

If Hannah confided in me about her eating disorder I’d have listened to her, because I think that's what people who suffer from the illness want, somebody to listen. I'd have taken into account how she feels but rather than tell her to starve herself as Melissa did, I would suggest that she gets professional help and encourage her to go to a doctor or call a helpline and try to think of solutions to help her stop feeling this way. But I think the best advice you can give is to get help and not to suffer in silence and not to be ashamed about the problem. And one of the things I'd have done with Hannah is make sure she admits that she has an eating disorder, rather than thinking it's normal to feel like this about food.


Did you have to lose weight to play the part or is it all make-up and effects?

No I didn't have to lose any weight to play the part, it's all make-up and effects. I have to sit through one and a half hours of make-up every morning and obviously there's lots of shading on my body and my face. I was never told to lose weight and never felt any pressure to lose weight. Also some of the clothes were baggy.


Did you mind wearing all that make-up?

No I didn't mind. Everyone would look at me and think 'oh my gosh you look absolutely awful' and say 'I couldn't do that' but to be honest it was fine because I was playing a part and your not really supposed to be yourself. The make-up did irritate my skin a bit and it was a great relief at the end of the day when I could take it off!


Are you concerned about your weight and food intake in real life?

I think as a young girl, I mean I'm only 17, and being in this industry where everything's about the way you look, I do feel a lot of pressure to look a certain way and worry about what I eat but I do try and eat healthily to make sure that I look the best that I can because I'm more concerned about having nice skin and nice hair, and you can't have that if your starving yourself.


Has playing your character made you more aware of eating disorders?

Well personally I was quite aware of eating disorders anyway because I'm a dancer and I've had experience with friends of mine, but it has made me more aware and has scared me. If I ever thought about going on an extreme diet like that, I wouldn't because I understand the effects through the research that I've done and it's upset me and made me very conscious of falling into that trap.


What kind of reaction have you had from viewers about the storyline?

I've had a great reaction from the viewers, that's one thing that I'm really pleased about. I was reading an email the other day from a person who suffered from anorexia all through their teenage years amd they are 24 now and have recovered. She was saying how realistic the character Hannah was as an anorexic and I found that really encouraging and I’m glad it was received in that way.


We never wanted to glamourise the issue of anorexia, and we showed the devastating effects. Hannah was depressed all the time, she looks physically awful, and her friend with the same illness actually died so we’ve shown the seriousness of the illness.


Are you happy that you had the chance to promote awareness of anorexia, and do you think the storyline will make a difference?

I was so honoured to be able to play the part, I was really pleased. I've got to say a big thank you to all the producers and things like that. However I couldn't say that the storyline will have a massive effect because there's only really so much we can do. In raising awareness of the issue I would like to think that we've done a good job because we've shown the audience the real anorexia and all the problems that come with it, which allows the audience to perhaps understand the illness a lot more. It also might have helped people who are suffering with the illness to get help, or for people to spot the signs of the illness if somebody they know is suffering.


What did you learn from doing this story?

I learnt a few things actually. I learnt that you need to be happy with yourself, and that you should be more aware of other people's feelings and think about what other people are going through because I know it's hard to understand sometimes why somebody does something, like Josh said 'I don't understand, why can't she just eat?' but it’s not as simple as that. We have to be tolerant of other people and remember that it's not a way, it’'s not a choice. They're psychologically ill when they have anorexia.



If you ever got asked to shave your hair (like Britney Spears) for a storyline, would you do it?

Well, for a storyline in HOLLYOAKS maybe not! Mind you if I was going to do a film and they said you have to shave your head for the role I would. So HOLLYOAKS no, but Hollywood yes!


Who is your best friend out of the cast and why?

Oooh, I wouldn't say I have one best friend in the cast, I have a lot of good friends. I'm particularly good friends with Roxy who plays Louise, she's a great laugh and a really lovely girl. I've also become really friendly with Carla who plays Melissa because we were working so close together and had a good giggle on set. I really miss her now that she's not here. She comes from London so she's gone to live back there but we still keep in touch and we went on holiday a few weeks ago together so that was nice. We went to Marbella for a week, it was really good. Then Roxy came out for a few days so we met up with her which was nice.


I also get on with Hannah (Katy), Jess (Nancy) and Loui (Sarah) – well, all the cast really!


Are there any of the cast that you fancy or have already dated?

No I'm not dating any of the cast! It's weird because when you work with someone you don't tend to fancy them. They're all gorgeous and if I wasn't in the show I'd probably like to date all of them!


A lot of people email in all the time asking for tips on how to get a job in a show like HOLLYOAKS. Do you have any advice about how to get into acting?

It's so easy to get into things like this, all you have to do is be motivated. I think first of all you need to start taking drama classes, get as much experience as you can in a local dramatics society or at school. School plays is a great way of building up your confidence, and then try and get into an agency. By getting an agent you can then go for auditions such as HOLLYOAKS and other soaps and other TV things.


If you gave up acting, which career would you choose?

When I was younger I used to want to be a pathologist, but now the idea of University doesn't appeal to me. But I would quite like to be a writer, I'm really into creative writing.


Any other plans?

I'm in HOLLYOAKS for a bit now, but eventually I'd love to do films. I love the idea of having loads of different roles and playing a part where you have to change dramatically and have a different accent or something. Because when you're playing a character in a soap you play the same person all the time, so although my character's gone through a lot of changes, I'm still Hannah.

[XxShortyxX]

In this week Inside Soap there is a section on Hollyoaks' future plots and they seem quite worrying...

Baby Blues...
Jacqui's dream of having a child could be about to come true as on of her sisters decides to become a surrogate mum for her! "The whole McQueen clan will be embroilled in a funny and tragic story, as Jacqui struggles to find someone to carry her baby," enthuses Bryan (Kirkwood). "Well add to that a fling between Jacqui's boyfriend, Tony and sister Mercedes, and a breakdown in Tina and Dom's marriage when she offers to be the one to help Jacqui out."
And that's not the end of the drama. Nana McQueen arrives in the Village, and she's holding the key to a long-buried family secret...

Power Trip...
Jake and Nancy's relationship looks set to falter over the coming months, as the widower struggles to cope with the similarities between his sister-in-law and his late wife, Becca.
"When Nancy starts teacher training, Jake sees echoes of Becca's mistakes, and begins trying to mould her," explains Bryan. "Things take a very sinister turn as Nancy loses all her individuality and starts to crumble under Jake's control."

Sister Shocker!...
Serial womaniser Rhys this week meets the lady who's set to become his soulmate - but is there more to his relationship with sexy newcomer Beth Clement than meets they eye?
"Rhys is swept of his feet by Beth, and a whirlwind romance ensues," Bryan shares. "Everything's going swimmingly until Rhys' real dad Noel, dies - and when the lad sees Beth at the funeral, he's horrified to discover that she's his half-sister!"

Ob and Out...
Viewers will be waving goodbye to a much-loved villager this autumn, when Ob departs town. Could his best pal, Max, getting together with Steph have something to do with it?
"I'm really sad that Darren Jeffries (OB) has decided to leave after so many years," sighs Bryan. "Steph and Max's romance will play a crucial part in him going. That relationship's working well, though - it'll be great to see Steph trying to take on the role of mum to Tom."

Love VS Money...
Jess and Zoe will have a huge falling out - over Darren, no less! "Darren's gambling addiction spirals out of control," says Bryan. "But Jess has money worries, and sees him as the solution - even though he's dating Zoe."

Amy's agony...
Things get worse for teen mum Amy when she moves in with Ste... "The pair become a couple, and face a real struggle to keep their heads above water." Bryan reveals. "Unbeknown to Amy, though, Ste will sink to any depths to get his hands on cash - and he makes a fatal mistake by crossing Warren...

Calvin loves Carmel...
Love is in the air for Calvin and Carmel takes a shine to him... "The pair fall in love - which inspires Carmel to become a community police officer!" chuckles Bryan. "And, of course, that will have a massive impact on her dodgy family..."

He's not a character in himself, he's just a random ginger kid she slept with in a park, if I remember correctly.

Spoilers for 12th- 16th November

Monday, November 12

Mike lambastes Kathy for worsening the rift with Amy by reporting her to social services. An unrepentant Kathy insists she was acting out of love. Ste admits swiping the credit card but begs Warren not to report him to police. Louise is starting to have doubts about whether she can trust Warren and decides to invite Carl - one of Warren's old friends - to help her find out if he is up to his old tricks again. Jake is embarrassed when he gets his wires crossed while getting Nancy a present for her assessment. And it is Steph's opportunity to prove her talents are far greater than Summer's at the Dog's singing sensations contest... let the fight begin!

Tuesday, November 13

Warren tells Louise he has recovered his credit card from Ste, but it does little to allay her suspicions about what he is up to. Louise is flooded with relief when Carl later reveals that not only had Warren passed her test, but that he was also secretly planning an engagement party. Carmel is excited when her horoscope foresees her meeting a hunky guy, linked to the number three. Nancy is still reeling from Sarah's assessment that she has become a dullard. Much to Nancy's embarrassment, Jake completely loses it when Kris makes a jibe about being a kept man and punches Kris. Max finally accepts Steph's invitation to partner her in the singing sensations competition, but only because he's going to be fighting it out with Simon

Wednesday, November 14

When Warren throws Ste's cannabis away and makes him pick up his chewing gum with his hands on his first day as a sweeper, Ste vows revenge. Louise quietly slips out of her engagement party and goes over to Evissa, just as a vengeful Ste is lighting the first match. Working at the pool, Gilly witnesses a little boy in tears emerge from Simon's cubicle. Coming to an alarming conclusion, Gilly feels he has to take action. It's shock all round when Carmel turns up at Louise's engagement party with Louise's ex, Calvin, in tow. And Jake admits to Nancy his insecurity at being friendless and job less.

Thursday, November 15

Warren fails to hide his jealousy when Calvin rescues Louise from burning Evissa and gives her mouth-to-mouth. Distraught from all that's has gone on, Warren pleads with Louise not to ever leave him again, but she lies motionless. Gilly is struggling to deal with his suspicion that Simon is a paedophile. Max and Steph send the audience into hysterics at the Singing Sensations competition and Steph and Summer are both wrong footed when Sarah and Simon are announced winners. Jake has discovered something to calm his anger: Rant Club and Kris's brother, Malachy.

Friday, November 16

A disgusted Katy shares her suspicions with Justin that Warren burned down Evissa for the insurance. But a furious Warren wants to find the real culprit. After overhearing Ste boasting to Josh, Warren knows he's got his man. Gilly, Neville and Rhys hatch a plan to throw Beth a surprise party. However, Hannah is shocked to come home to find Beth the centre of attention. Carme confides in Frankie her fears that Calvin Is not over Louise. Delighted for the chance to get things off his chest, a dejected Jake accepts Malachy's invitation to join him at Rant Club. And when a despondent Jake bemoans his life, Malachy has just the thing to cheer him up.

[Arneldo]

Hollyoaks stars of past and present are going to be Paul O'Grady today, according to Paul. it's on C4 now.

[Dizzy]

Oh, goody.
I'm watching Paul O'grady now =3

[Arneldo]

I think HO are trying to catch us out, and I think they might develop the relationship between Elliot & JP. However, I don't think Elliot will be JP new love interest.

My guess is that it might be.... wait for it .... Fletch. It would be interesting as Fletch is younger then JP. Also, its been brought a number of times now, the fact that Flecth has never had a GF, and producers said we would see more of Fletch in near future.

Also, somebody on another forum pointed out that on a earlier show we saw Fletch falling out of a closet - HO are known for dropping hints like this.

[Dan_]

Fletch will be taking on the persona of Pete Doherty :wink:

[AnastasiaBeaverhausen]

Fletch lives.

I like your theory Aaron but if you remember when Michaela and Fletch slept together he had a huge grin on his face.
I know Michaela's pretty manly but he obviously enjoyed himself... unless he's bi.

[supernoodles!]

gonna be a cracker tonight

[Billy]

Hannahs all better now :D

[001steven]

Hollyoaks was really good tonight

I watched the E4 one and it was also bril Warren gets gis revenge on Ste... something is telling me that Hannah hasnt compltely cured herself of Bulimia

[supernoodles!]

i doubt she can cure her self of bulimia and anorexia in that space of time

[Billy]

I think this is her recovery period now

[001steven]

yeah But did you see the look on her face when her mum cuddled her i think it was ALL an act to get out of there

[Kristen]

Hollyoaks is on the up.
I was so surprised when I found out the swimming teacher is a peadophile :shocked:

[Billy]

Im so happy forHannah

[Jack]

How sweet was Carmel in tonight's episode (at 6.30pm).

Im loving seeing Hannah back in hollyoaks but I dont like the idea of her and Danny,i think hes ugly plus hes a bit of a player isnt he ,or seems to consider himself one anyhow

[XxShortyxX]

yeah I agree about Danny, she should get with Gilly, he is lovely :bigsmile:

[Dan_]

Gilly ought to get his barnet cut, looks like some old dog.

[XxShortyxX]

Lol awww poor Gilly :bigsmile: I agree, I don't like guys with girly hair, my Ex Boy friend had hair like that and it was a right turn off :bigsmile:

[Kristen]

I can see where the Mercedes pregnancy storyline is going. She'll probably give her baby to Jacqui to save Myra from having to carry it.

And what a shock when Jess and Darren ended up having sex! :shocked:

I remember that. I was going to point it out in the thread but couldn't remember where you'd posted it.

I thought it was really selfish of Mercedes having the abortion. I'm pro-choice and sometimes women are in such bad decisions they have no other option but Jacqui was going to look after her until she had the baby and Mercedes knew how happy it would make her sister.

Knowing Hollyoaks they'll probably be some sort of twist and it will turn out Mercedes didn't go through with the abortion. It's times like these I wish I had E4...

:laugh: cant say I predicted she would get rid of it though.

This was a chance for Mercedes to prove she weren't a total selfish cow but evidently they are just going down the road of having her as the token witch.

I wonder where this baby storyline will lead next now that Tina is willing the have the baby for Jacqui and Tony?

On a separate note, why is that Newt kid always looking down? Has he lost something? e.g. his smile

:wink:

love hollyoaks why cant channel 4 make room for hollyoaks on xmas day it makes me mad

[Tom4784]

Grrr Jake is annoying me so much! I hope Newt comes back I liked him thought he had potential to be a good character.

[Tanser_Man]

I'm really eager to see what happens with this peadophile storyline.

Hollyoaks is really good lately and they keep pulling out these storylines which other soaps couldn't pull off, such as Darren's gambling addiction, Hannah's bullemia and now this.

And to think that is just a smigin of the stuff that has happened in the last few months alone!

[supernoodles!]

what was it that Reece found,he was holding what looked like a box?

[Arneldo]

So, Jess has left Hollyoaks for good. Will you miss her?

[Legend]

^^ when was that? :conf:

And I will yeah. Though I didn't expect her to leave.

[Tom4784]

Does anyone know if Gilly is coming back, his character was one of my favourites.

[Princess]

I wish Gilly and Beth hadn't gone off! Actually I wish Beth and Rhys weren't related-they would be so cute!

[Billy]

Jess
comes back and gets shot

Anyone else think Beths a terrible actress

Where did you hear this?

I like Beth, although she isn't a great actress. But Hollyoaks is good for that - Employing crap people and we see there skills get better and better and see them become very talented.

[Dan_]

Beth isn't very good at acting emotional, she just comes across so cold, with Rhys you really believe he's madly in love with Beth.

[dbh-g]

Tonights c4 episode was great and great acting from all the cast. LMAO at the bomb scene and brilliant ending to the episode. Missed e4 ep as v+ didnt record when i was as work. Now of out, hope every one has a gd night 2nite. Happy New Year.

[Arneldo]

Summer get an audition in London this month. She gets that part and leaves Hollyoaks for good in February/March - Taking O.B with her.



Also Hannah Tointon (Katy Fox) has announced she will be leaving the soap after this year.

There is a new set of titles, in which Jess has gone and Ste, Newt, Danny & Lauren feature. Beth does not feature in the titles which may mean she isn't sticking around.

[supernoodles!]

hmmm interesting,im not really fussed about katy leaving shes a bit boring now anyway.Im not too fussed on Beth either but i will miss Jess of course

[Tom4784]

Summer's leaving? Shame, I quite liked her.

I feel sorry for Nancy, I can't wait for Jake to get his comeuppance!

[supernoodles!]

what happens to jake like?

[x_mel_x]

I'm not sure if this is true but I heard Charlie gets leukimia and a transplant or transfusion from a family member and because Justin is really the Dad, Jake has to decide whether to tell anyone or not.

But Jake doesn't know that Justin is the father, doesn't he? He never opened the test results.

[supernoodles!]

why did justin never ask to see proof that charlie wasnt his?

[x_mel_x]

Jake did open the letter then ripped it up.

[supernoodles!]

i thought i remembered seeing him open the results

[Arneldo]

Im pretty certain he didnt open the result, just ripped the envelope up and threw it away.

Hollyoaks actress Summer Strallen has landed the lead role in West End production The Sound of Music as a tie-in with her current storyline, according to reports.

The 24-year-old's Hollyoaks character Summer Shaw makes a bid for musical stardom at the end of the month when she and boyfriend OB (Darren Jeffries) spend a week in London in an attempt to meet Lord Andrew Lloyd-Webber.

Surprisingly, the peer – who will make a cameo appearance in three episodes of the soap – agrees to hear Summer sing and is pleasantly surprised by what he sees, liking her so much that he offers her an audition for The Sound of Music.

In what could be Hollyoaks' first 'real life' crossover, Strallen's character will reportedly bow out of the soap when she lands the role of Maria von Trapp, while off-screen, the actress will be the successor to How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria? champion Connie Fisher.

Filming in London took place in the middle of November at the London Palladium – home to The Sound of Music – and the scenes will transmit from Monday, January 28.

An official announcement as to Strallen's role in the musical has yet to be made, while a Hollyoaks spokesperson was unavailable to comment.

Strallen first appeared in Hollyoaks on October 2 and is the niece of actress and theatre star Bonnie Langford.


Well done Summer! I'll miss her on 'Oaks :(
