Former Hollyoaks star Summer Strallen has admitted that she misses working on the soap much more than she expected to.
The actress joined the Channel 4 programme as Summer Shaw last year. It was later revealed that Summer's soap role was a stunt to boost publicity for her becoming Andrew Lloyd Webber's new leading lady in the West End production of The Sound of Music.
"I do miss it, yes. I didn't think I would but I do, a lot. Only because I had to drive up to Liverpool all the time," she explained. "But I miss the guys a lot. And when they all found out I was doing The Sound Of Music they were so happy for me and they were really supportive and I really miss all of them.
"Everything has its pros and cons. With The Sound Of Music you're doing the same thing every night so you don't have to worry about remembering your lines. Because that was the thing with Hollyoaks, any soap, you're learning things every five minutes. You get a new show script every two minutes! So I don't miss that. But I like doing television a lot and I hope to do some more in the future."
Summer added that she had not yet made a decision on whether to reprise her Hollyoaks role in the future.
She said: "I don't know if I'd go back to soap. I do miss it. It would have to depend on the offer I suppose."
