“oi didn’t do it!”

We know Brendan, we know. But alas, the whole village was quick to jump to the conclusion that the lovable Irishman was a moiderer. Not that he can be too outraged since he did kill Danny Houston. Badly. At least if he was responsible for these killings it would be an improvement of his murdering skills. But no, as Lynsey says approximately forty-six times per episode “IT WAS SILAS“.

And so as Brendan was dressed in some unflattering prison clothes and a bright orange vest which did nothing for his mustache, Silas paraded around the village like the caring granddad he’s not. Being evidently above suspicion as he is over the age of sixty, without threatening mustache or history of violence, no one gave him a second glance as they quickly condemned Double B and all tried the “I always knew it” line. However, as Amy pointed out, bashing Ste about a bit is slightly different to strangling girls and dumping bodies in the woods. Say what you like about Brendan, but he doesn’t hit women. Nevertheless, Brendan is IN PRISON. And people were WORRIED. Cheryl’s panic was written all over her face – blind panic evidently as her visit-to-prison outfit was a terrible Lady Gaga affair and clearly inappropriate. Also worried was Foxy. Apparently. Although clearly not that worried as he declined to provide Brendan with a fake alibi for murder. HOW SELFISH. And Brendan may has well have signed the club over to him, he only uses it as a place to drink tea menacingly and kiss/punch Ste.

In keeping with the inappropriate outfits theme, Cheryl and Lynsey turned up at The Dog to shout at Silas (about the ninety-fifth time she’s done that this week) with Lynsey in a tits-and-legs-out combo – great plan when going to see a serial killer who murders sluts. The arrival of the bitchy policewoman (bet Ethan‘s shagged her) who  always seems to know where everyone is (she’s basically the new Silas) and informed the world (well, the contents of the bar) that Lynsey has been sending messages to herself caused outrage. Not entirely sure how she’d have the time though given that she spends every spare minute being a younger, slightly more attractive Miss Marple. Nevertheless, Cheryl WENT MENTAL and Lynsey relocated to the bus stop to cry/sulk/think/do other bus stop things. Abandoning her H&M wardrobe, Lynsey followed Silas into the murder woods where he hinted at hangings and stole her phone and she hit him on the head with a rock. All in the space of four minutes. Like Hollyoaks’ most threatening characters, Claire for instance (there’s a show-down we’d like to see) we imagine he shall be back. And worse than ever before. Watch out, Myra.

 

Quotes

“How has he got away with it right under everyone’s noses?” Interesting question you’re asking Silas there, Nancy

“Interesting how you can see someone every day and not really know them.” Once again, Nancy shows her stupidity, and she’s allowed to write things in the paper. Oh dear.

“You are going to regret not listening to me, Nancy!!” Since when did Nancy listen to anyone? Remember the Jake situation?! How well did that turn out?!

“I’ve been worried about you.” Warren shows his sensitive side, failing to remember that Brendan‘s only been in prison about three hours

“I could tell them about Danny Houston!” Why the HELL would you do that, Brendan?! Why would you, to get out of prison for one murder, admit to another one?!

“You never know, you might like it in here.” Warren finally says what we’ve all been thinking about Brendan and prison.

“I do have a life outside of Hollyoaks, you know”  Yeah, Silas, we’ve seen you in Harry Potter.
