Rafi irritates me. I want Nancy with Russ.

[ThisIsMarie]

I know! Rafi is seriously annoying.

I don't want Naci to be with either of them though.

I am loving the storyline with Newt and "Eli" lol

My brother saw the end of the Omnibus and said "Oh! that must mean he.."

and I just said "You have only just figured it out?" xD

[Tom4784]

I think the story line with Eli is brilliant although predictable, I've never seen a storyline like it on a soap so i'm interested to see how it pairs off.

I really like Rafi and I hope he gets with Nancy in the end, They'd make a good funny couple I think.

[Scarlett.]

Lol I didnt predict it (Until the past few episodes) xD
but Im kinda new to HO so lol

Still haznt learnt eveyones names

[Tom4784]

Well that's understandable, I guessed a few months ago when I realised that nobody has seen Eli or interacted with him apart from Newt.

I'm with you on the not remembering name things, It took my like 2 weeks to remember everyone's names when I started to watch it, Hollyoaks has a big cast.

[Scarlett.]

Aye I think I knows a few

I started watching around the time "Eli" did the "Morpheus speech"

[Spike]

I am loving the Newt and Eli story too, does anyone know how the story ends?

[InTheFade]

I only just realised after watching the omnibus this morning that Eli is Newt's 'alter-ego'.

Hollyoaks pub landlord Jack Osborne takes the biggest risk of his life when he fakes his own death to secure his family's financial future.

Jack - played by James McKenna - is forced to take drastic action when his mounting debts become ever more crippling. In an attempt to free his family from ongoing financial pressures, he attempts to take his own life so his family can cash in on his life insurance.

However, when his son Darren (Ashley Taylor Dawson) catches him at his darkest moment, they're forced to search for another way to end their financial misery.

A Hollyoaks source told DS: "Jack's at an all-time low and the finding of a dead body is too good an opportunity for him and Darren to pass up.

"They swap the dead man's identity with Jack's, forcing Jack to slope off into the night. Darren's then left with the formidable task of telling step-mum Frankie (Helen Pearson) of the 'death'.

"As Darren's tangled web of lies continues to grow, he's left in an extremely tricky position when he learns that Kris (Gerard McCarthy) and brother Malachy (Glen Wallace) are searching for their father. It's only then that Darren discovers the true identity of the corpse."

They added: "Will Darren be able to keep his cool, or will he crack under the pressure? It's only when Jack turns up at his own funeral that Darren realises that the situation has truly spiraled out of control."

Some bad news

Hollyoaks favourite James Sutton has quit the Channel 4 soap, Digital Spy can exclusively confirm.

The 25-year-old, who has captured the hearts of millions since 2006 playing the role of gay student John Paul McQueen, will bow out of the soap in September for pastures new.

His exit will naturally coincide with the brief return of Guy Burnet as John Paul's old flame Craig Dean, who makes a comeback in a bid to rekindle their romance.

When John Paul sees Craig again for the first time since Craig left for Trinity College, Dublin, his life is thrown into complete disarray. His feelings for Craig begin to resurface and he's forced to make the biggest decision of his life - stay with his fiancé, Father Kieron Hobbs (Jake Hendriks), or reunite with his former love.

The situation soon takes a sinister and fatal twist, however, resulting in Craig moving one step closer to the sunset ending he returned for.

Speaking of his decision to quit, Sutton said: "I’ve had a really great time working on Hollyoaks but after much thought I’ve decided that it’s time to bring it to an end."

He continued: "I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Bryan Kirkwood and everyone at Hollyoaks for making my time here so memorable. I’m also really grateful to the viewers for their continued support and commitment to the character and the storyline."

Producer Bryan Kirkwood added: "In two short years, James Sutton has achieved amazing success in his role as John Paul McQueen.

"His sensitive and honest portrayal of a young man coming to terms with his sexuality and dealing with the aftermath has captivated viewers and critics, won many awards and has been at the heart of Hollyoaks' recent success. James will, I’m sure, go on to great things."

Sutton films his final scenes in July and will depart on screen in September.

Earlier this year, John Paul and Craig's affair storyline was honoured at the Stonewall awards.
