A superb week from Hollyoaks, not everybody's cup of tea, but Oaks is leaving the other soaps in the shade without a doubt. Last night almost broke my heart. So pleased Damon made up with Scott. I have to say Brody played by Adam Woodward has been outstanding.

Lol. Oh lord. So Ste's going to become a far-right EDL reject with anti-Muslim views all of a sudden? An interesting subject to explore no doubt and certainly an original idea for a storyline. But I find Ste an annoying character as it is... I have a feeling I'm going to hate him twice as much now. His self-absorbed response to Tegan's death has been nothing short of frustrating to watch... Still, let's see how they approach the storyline. I hope it's good.

I think it is only you and me Teeks that dip into Oaks, i doubt the others on here would know where the 4 button is on their remotes, not straying from channel 3. Heaven help them if they ever hit 5.

Ha! This thread is like a cyber graveyard. Only the dead post on here... I guess that means we're dead! Oh well. We will have to keep the thread going amongst ourselves. So you got any other juicy spoilers, holey? Any idea where the Laurie Shelby sexual harassment storyline is going? Is he a villain or what? Seems like a timely storyline what with the #MeToo movement and all that.

Urgh. I really hate Romeo. Such a despicable piece of garbage. All he cares about is getting his leg over and exploiting Prince for his own selfish ends. Poor Prince. He should've told Lilly about his operation...
I hope Prince beats the snot out of Romeo when he finds out he's been pretending to be his friend...

Congrats to Hollyoaks for winning best continuing drama at the prestigious RTS awards. Well deserved.
Love Myra's wedding dress, it was funny when she got stuck coming down the stairs. I hope Myra and Sally get hitched.

It’s all sounding a lot like the final days of Brookside and that worries me.
The problem with Hollyoaks is that it made itself very issue led, and would seemingly jump from one issue to another with very little thought given to logic or continuity. As a result you have characters who have suffered many different medical conditions or personal situations that one person just wouldn’t deal with in one lifetime.
Occasionally it would do something well, such as the sepsis storyline but would then undo its good work by having the omnipresent McQueen clan do something banal/stupid/illegal.
My suggestions for sorting it out?
1-cull the McQueens down to a reasonable number. The show is called Hollyoaks and it’s meant to be about an entire village and outside Norfolk villages tend to have more than one family in them!
2- strip the storylines back to character led well written and thought out storylines, some funny and some drama.
3-drop down to 3/4 episodes a week

Not sure where to post this Sarah Jayne Dunn (Mandy) has been sacked from the show because she has an Only Fans account. Sarah Jayne Dunn: Hollyoaks star axed over Only Fans photos www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-59161371This feels like it could be the tip of the iceberg, with talent obviously wanting more control over their image outside of the day job.

Not sure what to think, is it a bit harsh? She has been in the show almost as long as Tony Hutchinson, who is the Ken Barlow of the soap, although Cindy first appeared in December 1995.

New Family look interesting in Hollyoaks, headed by Dominic Power.

So let me get this straight... Mandy off Hollyoaks has a OnlyFans account? And she's been sacked from the show?! What on earth? Surely this has got to be an early April Fool's prank? I really wasn't expecting to read this when I switched on my computer... Not to sound mean, but isn't she a bit old now to be flaunting herself on OnlyFans at her age? It's like finding out your mum has a secret OnlyFans account! Dear oh dear...
