hollyoaks later 2009 episode 4
Okay, so we were out and about the night of episode 4, watching Michael McIntyre do his gentle family comedy thang (though with many unexpected jokes about blowjobs. Shocking).
As a result we missed the Biggest Death to happen to Hollyoaks in a long time. FFS! So we tuned into 4OD today knowing that Sarah’s untimely demise was on the way and…
OMFG!!!!!
What else can we say about it? Hollyoaks has had its fair share of death scenes but this one take the biscuit in terms of spectacularity and tension. Poor old Sarah didn’t stand a chance as she plummeted towards earth – never has a clear blue sky and golden cornfield been so terrifying.
Wow.
And then there was the end bit, where the DILF was informed of his daughter’s squishy fate. Sob!
So Lydia’s demented and poorly thought out plan to take out love rival Zoe back fired spectacularly. Hubris, eh?
everything else in the episode paled into insignificance, but in summary:
More beautiful nature (has Hollyoaks ever looked so good?) as Hannah and Jamie sought refuge on the beach, dark doom-laden clouds overhead
Rhys gets royally kicked in by Kev and Blue. We know we should be sad about this, but we can’t quite manage it
Jacqui and Carmel both get banged up cos of Evil Southerners – for the trashing of sleazy photographer man Wayne’s studio for the former, vice squad entrapment for the latter.
Cindy and Tony FINALLY agreed to marry each other. Cindy fessed up her scam, and they both said something about not wanting to look around corners. GET ON WITH IT we felt like shouting, Holy Grail-style. Still, we got to spend time with Darren and Cindy did look very pretty even though she was covered in mud and her tiara was askew.
quotes
“Conniving, lying, nasty shrew…cheating, thieving midget” Tony’s description of Cindy. “A bit harsh” was Darren’s response.
So yeah. As with last year, the big death happened in the penultimate episode. And it was a corker. Put us off skydiving (and unhealthy relationships with disturbed lesbians) for life, but a corker nonetheless. Yay!
