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 [...]

E4 first look… The poisoner becomes the poisoned! Vile Niall got a taste of his own vomit inducing evil medicine when his would-be victim John Paul innocently switched their cans of random brand beer. Who would have thunk it? Several hours of spewing later, Niall was found dribbling on the bathroom floor by Steph, who [...]

E4+1 first look… All by myself… Poor Bambi is feeling sorry for himself, abandoned by John Paul, unwelcome at The Dog, in the dark about the Jack’s fake death scheme and nothing more than a comedy anecdote to ex Sarah. He spent the episode mooching around the village, fluttering those eyelashes. Poor lamb! A day [...]

Home in time for the E4+1 first look. Despite the fact that we had missed the preceding episode and presumably an explanation for the high proportion of randomness (see below), this episode still managed to make perfect sense. But then that is beauty of Hollyoaks! Gotta have a montage We were treated to a quick [...]

Embarking on a heavy weekend of drinking in North London, WLH had to catch snippets of the ‘Oaks across various editions of the omnibus (including a suprise repeat on E4 at 4am…believe us, the ‘Oaks is even awesomer after copious amounts of vodka!) hivfest ’08 After much skulking around in bedrooms, corridors and stairwells, staring [...]

In the harsh and unforgiving Hollyverse, the selfless do-goodery of ex-Father Kieron was always going to come to an unhappy end. In the wake of his horrific, puke-stained murder, we thought we should take a moment to reflect on the life of our favourite ex-clergyman. Things we liked about Kieron He put the purrr into [...]

Still tearful and vulnerable after the death of ex-Father Kieron, here is our round up of other goings on in this week’s omnibus… The merry widow Okay Steph, it might have been a bit of a shock to find out that Jack was still alive, but how’s about you pack in the ‘You cheated meh!’ [...]

WLH is suffering from a nasty dose of flu/hangover so we were in no fit state to cope with the high drama of the E4 omnibus…just about recovered, so here goes… Vile Niall gets the girl (for a while) After wooing her with flowers, chocolates and the car squishing of her husband, his Vileness finally [...]

Last night, we left WLHHQ fairly late and decided to treat ourselves to a night at Nando’s for what we thought would include no more than a reasonably priced chicken dinner and a thoughtful discussion on the finer points of Craig’s return to the ‘Oaks. Boy, were we wrong. En route, we stumbled into a [...]

E4 first look… Their eyes met over a crowded smoothie shop… We all know John Paul has a penchant for a love triangle (him-Kieron-God being his latest), so he must have been overjoyed by the return of Craig – fellow ratboy and his first love. Craig, for his part, was just as happy to see [...]
