Darren and Nancy, Dancy if you will, are quite the Hollyoaks’ dream couple – no cheating, no illegal activities, no enormous arguments and general drama favoured by the other love birds of the village. As much as my love for Darren knows no bounds, I am quite pleased for them. Because Darren is so wonderfully [...]

And so Gilleh’s gone again. Deja vu there. “I can’t be here, I need to get away”, definitely heard that before. But it looks like this time might be for real as Gilly looked sorrowfully at Rhys remembering times gone by and left Cheryl crying on THE steps. It was a pretty standard week for Gilly. [...]

Tom! Thomas! Tomothy! Tom-diddly-omptious! Whatever endearing name it is you have taken to calling dear little Tom Cunningham, I salute you, because it’s not easy to sit and watch possibly one of the most abused characters in soap history. Yes, Tom has had a difficult life, having had to deal with the death of his [...]

Ahh Doug, dear old Doug, ever the favourite American student turned drug dealer turned good-for-nothing. Having previously been seen being slapped around by Brendan, Doug hasn’t really been up to much of late. In fact, I’m not entirely sure what he’s even living off now or how he can even afford to pay rent. Nevertheless, [...]

It was freaking mayhem in Hollyoaks this week.  Rae breathed her last at the hands of evil Nietszche-quoting Silas.  Brendan was taken away in handcuffs (phwoar!  Sorry, just had to get that off my chest).  Cheryl broke down and forgot her make-up.  Ste wept in the arms of Amy.  Lynsey went bonkers.  Ethan stared, and [...]

It occurred to us that whilst we’ve been a bit preoccupied with the hairy wonder that is Brendan Brady (and who wouldn’t be), [...]

We’re looking for a good time….etc Anyway, we don’t know what they’ve been putting in the beer over in Hollyoaks village lately, but the men folk have been up to all sorts. Here’s our A-Z of the goings on: Alistair Bad times for the dapper pensioner, having to suffer the indignity death by falling/being pushed [...]

Thanks to flu, Christmas and too much time spent watching Downton Abbey, WLH is now so far behind that to do a post for each of the weeks we’ve missed would be an almost impossible feat. So instead, here are our high (or more often low) points of December. If you notice that Brendan news [...]

“It’s too ‘orrible for words” cooed Heidi, about today’s fiery carnage. We disagree, there are LOTS of words for it – and here they are:

So this week’s proper Hollyoaks episodes were odd beasts as each episode proceeded that day’s episode of Hollyoaks Later, meaning that all the action took place over the course of one evening, and none of the major storylines were allowed to progress much. Still, there was still a lot to enjoy (more than Hollyoaks Later [...]
