Rory Douglas-Speed has quit and what we’ve seen is it for Joel! That is very very odd and sudden imo, but wrecking him and Leela so decisively over Cleo makes sense now.

  • I think as well when there’s so few episodes, every other episode being Jez either killing someone or threatening to kill someone or locking them up leaves basically the whole cast coming up short wit

    To post spoilers you need to choose ‘Wrap in Box’ from the + option, and then choose ‘Expandable’ from the cog settings at the top right of the box itself once you’ve put your text in the spoiler. Mak

    Got it, thank you!

I do like how Clare has slotted back in so seemlessly.

The opening credits really need a major update.

Clare savibg this show single handedly. They neeever should have tried to kill her. She always lodt vs Warrwn, super sexist storylines, so hopefully she tskes over snd becomes the new square bad leader.

I fully cannot handle watching FIVE more months of this absolute dirge with Jez if it does go on until the anniversary, CHRIST. Zero character development and zero point to any storyline, just a dull as dishwater serial killer storyline for the sake of it. Sienna and Dodger both have more than enough going on without this rubbish, I just don’t see any redeeming qualities to his whole arc.

It's really lost on me why exactly Jez killed Dennis and I hope they explore that properly with perhaps a flashback episode (Joe Tracini to return for it please) so it can be truly understood. I agree with Liam though that it's boring af having yet another serial killer.

Nice to see Bobby return but it's going to take a lot for Zak Sutcliffe to shake off those Schuey comparisons if he's a tearaway!

There is no reason, I can’t imagine, like… unless he wanted Sienna to have Tori back or something, but it still to me is very short sighted and sensationalist to kill off a character like Dennis just for the short term addition to a deathly dull serial killer storyline.

Also exit is confirmed, not surprisingly, for

Marie

Nice to see Goldie back today

A shame about Marie really but if Arlo is going too then it's not all bad 🤣. Wonder if it'll be Jez that bumps her off.

Hello updated opening titles!

I don't think I understand how Jez captured Robbie? Poor bloke has escaped one capture into another

Why even bring back Robbie to just him either off screen wherever or held captive about 19 times lol

  • 2 weeks later...

Unpopular opinion probably and borderline Hollyoaks heresy but I can’t think of anything more terminally boring than this Ste and Lucas rubbish right now and frankly anything to do with Ste lately lol

Wait wait wait, surely Robbie isn't Grace's son? I can't get my head around it at all as it would just retcon a lot of what we've seen already including Jason being his twin brother? Is Rick still the dad? Perhaps it was all a red herring with the filming this week. Bonkers.

Presumably Sandy just happened to have a baby around the same time so they raised them as twins but that is just so convoluted for a twist that doesn’t even need to happen and that adds absolutely nothing lol They seem to be everything and also nothing with Robbie since he came back and none of it works.

Mercedes and Tony isn't too much of a surprise as they've been with each other fleetingly before.

A good week this week. Glad Jez and John-Paul didn't get married but is that really the end of Bobby?? It looked like Tony hit him and didn't realise but Jez had obviously hit him first as well? Poor kid

This show absolutely LOVES a serial killer killing a serial killer lol

I feel like I keep saying this but they seriously can’t keep this Jez rubbish up until October SURELY? Aside from obvious dud periods like 2010-2012 or so I think this has to be up there with the worst storylines since I started watching (early 2010). Rewriting Sienna’s history when Patrick was so integral to why she is the way she is only for Jez to be a worse Patrick was just not needed, and unlike say Silas or Lindsey, the serial killer plot is not engaging at all and doesn’t further anyone’s story in a compelling way, if anything it detracts from Sienna. Even to bring Bobby back to kill him off, that had no need to happen, Mercedes had plenty going on without that. Then you have Jez shoved into every storyline, for example killing Abe when they easily could have shown justice for Cleo and Peri. It’s just so so dull. I think another thing is he’s just a plot device written to be a serial killer, it’s predictable and drab, with say Lindsey she was a character first and then the serial killer thing was more shocking and Silas was just so perfectly written.

I get the feeling Liberty won’t survive this storyline, which whilst she has been given f*** all to do in about 5 years would be a real shame for a character who should be comic relief. And don’t get me started on the potential lost with Dilly. Dilly/Sienna/Liberty’s dynamic getting used to losing the mansion and their money, being in that flat, was an infinitely more interesting dynamic than the Jez and Martha dirge, not to mention Sienna has Cleo and her pregnancy as well.

Definitely agree with you Liam on all of that. Silas and Lindsey were incredible characters, perhaps maybe even Breda was half decent too. Serial killer storylines are so unrealistic so I think generally it's hard to really grab people with them, especially in a show like this where it's been done time and time again.
