i have a feeling the brookside storyline will be coming together for Jimmy Corkhill's funeral seeing as the characters returning are linked to Jimmy and it's been confirmed there will be a tribute to him.

Next 2 announced to return for crossover Philip Olivier and Suzanne Collins aka Tinhead and Nikki Shadwick BBC NewsTinhead to appear in Hollyoaks' Brookside specialPhilip Olivier says he will "relish returning to the close" as Timothy 'Tinhead' O'Leary.

Doesn't take much to get a song to No.1 on itunes these days, i reckon Lisa Scott-Lee - Electric would do it if a 2nd campaign happened lol
