Firstly it isn’t porn, although it’s on OF she is literally just posting suggestive pictures and racy ones

 

Secondly, how can Hollyoaks say that it doesn’t fit with its target audience when up until a few years ago they forced their cast members to post half naked every year for ‘hunks’ and ‘babes’ calendars? Absolutely hypocritical.

I’ve got to be honest .. the hypocrisy doesn’t sit right with me here..

 

Times have moved on, but as mentioned above - The Hollyoaks calenders.

 

& let’s be really honest here, it’s a show that has historically used sex as a selling point. So this whole thing doesn’t seem right.

 

I do get the argument about it being a show with a young audience.. but it’s only a year ago that certain cast members were accused of being racially insensitive and yet didn’t publicly receive any kind of ‘punishment’ ( for want of a better word)

 

So yeah.. none of this sits right with me.. especially as it’s her body and her choice..

This is the same show that up until a few years ago used to produce 'hunks and babes' calendars, featuring many of the show's stars in a state of undress. Even though the calendars have now been discontinued, Hollyoaks still has the reputation of being the 'sexy soap', well known for characters often wearing very little clothing.

It’s a bit hypocritical as they used to do a calendar and they very often have characters (mainly male ones) appear topless regularly on the show.

 

Plus Lysette who plays Marnie was rumoured to be a racist bully wasn’t she which led to Rachel Adedeji leaving the show. Chelsee who plays Goldie as well also broke lockdown rules by attending a rave (at a time we were in a full lockdown I believe) I’d say both of those are greater offences than Only Fans.

 

Having said that though as soon as I seen she joined OF i thought this is clear contract breach what won’t end well.

 

Wonder if she’ll appear on Im A Celeb.

If that's the case you may have fired someone every time they posed for 'lads magazines' back in the day. No-one did as far as I know. Ridiculous really.

hollyoaks impact

that was quite a sensational episode , especially the chess nod.

 

I’m absolute gutted about one of the deaths, she was truly one of the best things about the show

the male death was actually axed and didn’t quit :o

the male death was actually axed and didn’t quit :o

 

I’ve just seen that there when I read the exit interview.

 

Wouldn’t have been my first pick of an axe especially a permanent exit.

 

 

Mercedes really is the grim reaper in this show though if you’re a male cast member and you end up romantically involved with her in some way….

 

celeste is such a huge huge huge loss, she was truly becoming an icon

Marnie's gone, flipping heck.

I don’t agree with any of the death choices!

 

There were many, many characters who’d ran their course a long while ago who I’d have axed over any of the deaths we’ve had this week. I’m intrigued to know about the female characters and if they were axed like the male death or if it was the decision by the actresses.

 

 

celeste had left so her death makes a bit of sense for future story planning

Becky wasn’t in it for very many months and she still outstayed her welcome by several of those

Anyone else getting sick of Yazz ?

 

She forgave Cher so why not forgive Tom ?

I do like Yaz but I was never really that sold on her and Tom as a couple.

 

Tom to me is a bit like Chesney in Corrie fine as a child character but as they got older they should’ve recast him.

 

The Maalik family are the best family unit the show has though for me! Every one of them can act and they also all have their own stories going in and can interact away from the family unit fine as well. The actress who plays Misbah especially has been fantastic lately I do hope she at least gets nominated at the Soap Awards for Best Actress or Dramatic Performance.

 

Re Becky I was actually sad to see her leave. I did know she wasn’t gonna be permanent based off the fact she was never in the opening titles but it was quite interesting to see a character like her on a soap a very current storyline of it too the racism aspect of it aimed at Serena (and anyone of Asian descent) as well I feel was also handled very sensitively the scenes where Honour stood up to her I feel we’re well acted and I did like seeing Katie McGlynn playing a character very different to her Corrie character too.

 

I’m really not ready to see Luke’s death happen though that will be one of the saddest episodes ever when it does happen :cry:

Hollyoaks bosses have announced that the show will move to a new "streaming first" strategy next month.

 

Digital Spy can reveal that new episodes will premiere on Channel 4's on-demand service All 4 on a permanent basis.

 

One new episode will drop on All 4 every weekday morning, ahead of the E4 screening at 7pm that evening and the Channel 4 repeat at 6.30pm the following day.

Good to see Silas back, Jeff Rawle is very good in the role great actor

Has there ever been such a low key stunt week? Even adding Silas into the mix has barely raised interest.
