In last night’s episode the plot thickened between Mitzeee and Jem, as they attempted to lure and trap Carl. Jem told Mitzeee she had to get Carl into bed that very day!

However, Mitzeee managed to misfire a little, bedding Jem’s ex Liam instead. Jem told Mitzeee she’d ruined Jasmine’s life. But will the Heidi oust Jem for good now? And how will Carl react if he finds out?

Warren Fox made a surprise return to Hollyoaks village recently after apparently rising out of the flames of The Loft Fire like some kind of phoenix. As yet, no one seems to know what the bejeebus Warren’s been up to since escaping the fire, or how he managed this Houdini-esque feat of escapology. Or not yet anywho…

However, this Wednesday on Channel 4 at 6:30pm, in a special stand-alone episode, all questions will be answered and the smoke and mystery surrounding Warren’s escape from the fire will be cleared once and for all. We'll see how he made it out of the blaze and some of what he did afterwards.

We can’t reveal too much now, but it promises to be an explosive episode. Of course, the keen beans among you will be able to catch the episode on ‘First Look’ tomorrow at 7pm on E4. And if you can’t wait until then to get your Foxy fix, why not check out our facebook page, where we’re making Warren our ‘character of the week’. That means we’ll be posting loads of photos facts and trivia about the original bad boy throughout the week.

Last Thursday night we held a live – chat with Jennifer Metcalfe, who plays Mercedes Fisher. She talked us through what it was like to film the scenes with Malachy on his death-bed and by the end of the chat there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.

Tonight we’re going to be speaking live to Ashley Slanina-Davies, who plays Amy Barnes. Amy’s been in the show since 2006 and recently we nearly lost her to the fire at Il Gnosh. She also shared a fling with Lee Hunter on screen recently, but things seem to have ground to a bit of a halt on that front.

Ashley will be here with us from 7pm to talk on facebook about all things Amy. If you’ve got a question for her, then write it on our Facebook wall and we’ll do our best to pass it on!

It's coming this December. You've seen the adverts, the hysteria is already building, people have started to tick off the days. Yes, we wish it could be every day too, but, unfortunately, The Hollyoaks Music Show Playlist Christmas Special comes but once a year. Nevertheless, this year’s special promises to be a cracker, with six top acts performing on the show…plus five golden rings, four calling birds, three…you get the point.

And what’s more, you could come along for the fun too. All you need to do to be in with a chance of joining in the fun is send an email to conkerADM@limepictures.com with your name, age, location and contact phone number. Applicants must be 16 or over and anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

In the second series of the show featured acts like Tinchy Stryder, Aggro Santos, Scouting For Girls, Jason Derulo, Pixie Lott and loads more top performers…

In tonight’s 6:30pm episode we find out who started the fire at Il Gnosh! There’s been lots of speculation about who started the blast and why.

Of course, those keen ones amongst you who watched last night’s First Look episode will already know who the culprit is. But for those of you who didn’t catch it, who do you think comes clean?

And, perhaps more importantly, why?

Give us your thoughts in the comments box below:

Liam made an eerie return to the village in last night’s episode. His eyes brimming with tears after just burying his brother Nathan, Liam caught hold of Jem to tell her that her dad was evil.

In this year’s Hollyoaks Later episodes we saw Liam and his brother drug and kidnap the Costello boys in a bid for revenge after Carl broke Liam’s leg and ended his football career. Nathan was just about to return the favour when Seth pushed him over a ledge, eventually leading to his horrific death.

We don’t know yet what Liam’s plans are for the Costellos, but if we can be sure of anything, it’s that he won’t let the death of his brother go completely unrequited. Will Jem be able to work out what he’s up to in time though? Or is Liam going to draw her back into his snare?

Welcome to this week’s blog from the Hollyoaks music department.

This week’s musical highlights on Hollyoaks include:

‘Stay’ by Hurts – Gilly’s grief and frustration become too much and the bedroom bears the brunt. This breakdown is juxtaposed with the emotion of this Hurts track, the irony being of course that Gilly cannot ask Steph to stay as she has already gone.

‘Future Memories’ by Klaxons – the full impact of the fire is just beginning to hit home, Tony is left with no business, Gilly is left with no wife and Ste is seemingly left with no choice other than to get away from Brendan.

‘Tornado’ by Jonsi – the fire claims another victim as we lose Malachy. This powerful track from Jonsi is full of emotion and the perfect accompaniment for this heartbreaking scene where those closest to Malachy say their last goodbyes.  

More musical goodies await on next week’s episodes of Hollyoaks so until then…

Kate & James

 

As some of you may have already seen, tonight’s First Look Hollyoaks on E4 was a special, unbilled episode that saw the McQueens, Cheryl, Lynsey and Malachy’s mother attempting to mourn their loss. However, the night at the McQueen’s soon turns into bitch fights and drunken arguments as the women discover some shocking revelations about Malachy and Mercedes…

Hollyoaks is always on the ball with the issues that really matter, and since this special one-off episode was filmed recently, we see Myra refer to the Royal engagement! How up-to-the-minute are we?! And with Malachy’s mum vying for Mercedes’ blood, Duncan Button overhearing more than he should, and Cheryl determined to find out the truth, it’s bound to be a night to remember…

Make sure you don’t miss tomorrow night’s Hollyoaks on Channel 4 at 6:30pm to catch all the action! You can also head over to the official Hollyoaks Facebook page for more photos from this episode.

Last night we held a live Facebook web chat with Glen Wallace who plays Malachy Fisher. He told us what it was like to be a part of the cast, which fellow-cast members he really enjoyed working with and also about how he related to his character…

Tonight we’re going to be joined by Jennifer Metcalfe, who plays Malachy’s wife Mercedes. The couple have definitely had their on-off moments over the past year, which wasn’t helped by Mercedes committing adultery with her sister’s husband Calvin! Things were just getting back on track for the couple, but then the blast from Il Gnosh struck. Malachy has been in a coma since then, and as she’s watched her husband on a life support machine, Mercedes has found it hard to accept the possibility that he may die.

Jenny Metcalfe (Mercedes Fisher) will be around to answer your questions on the official Hollyoaks Facebook page from 7pm tonight, straight after the Channel 4 episode. You can post your questions on the Hollyoaks facebook status thread any time from now - so ask away and we’ll see what Jenny has to say later!

Post your questions on the official Hollyoaks Facebook page here now!

Malachy Fisher was one of the unfortunate people to have suffered injuries in the fire at Il Gnosh last week. Malachy's been in a coma ever since the huge blast knocked him and Mercedes over, and the future's looking bleak. Malachy has internal injuries caused by the impact from the explosion; his lungs have started to fail, and Malachy has had to go on a life support machine... but as to what happens next, only time will tell.

Tonight, Glen Wallace who plays Malachy will join us live on the official Hollyoaks Facebook page to answer all of your questions! The live online chat will take place at 7:30pm after tonight's Hollyoaks on E4. You can post your questions on our status thread any time from now, so get asking!...

Warren threatened Theresa again in last night’s episode. She’s obviously got something on him and he wants to make sure she keeps quiet about it.

But what is it that Theresa knows? Whatever it is, it must be fairly juicy! Could it be to do with last week’s fire? Or does it go back further than that? Let us know in the comments box below:

Amidst all the fall-out from the fire, there is a lot to take in this week. We still don’t know who caused the blaze, or why. Steph’s death has certainly caused major ripples. However, while we wait to find out if there are going to be any more casualties, tonight’s episode also sees an emotional departure for one of our favourite characters. Super-geek Elliot Bevan leaves the village for a better life when he lands a dream-job with NASA.

Since joining the cast back in 2007, Elliot has been one of our biggest comedy characters. With his own brand of specs-appeal, he has also been one of the most prolific in the courting stakes, wooing a string of Hollyoaks lovelies including Jessica, Sarah, Hannah, Leila and Sheila (to name a few).

Elliot has also been involved in some really dramatic stories, along with mates Kris, Zak and all the rest of the motley crew. One story involving  a fake-kidnapping scam, which caused the typically mild-mannered Welsh-man lamp his fellow student Archie. Most recently he has been mentoring study-buddy and fellow science enthusiast Kevin.

Garnon will be greatly missed on set, as his character will also be missed on the show. Before he left, we got a few words with him…

You’ve been in the show for three years now, was it emotional filming your final scenes?

Well, I’d known for a while that I was leaving, so I was quite excited in a way, but it was a really odd feeling. I think my character had done everything he was going to do on the show and as an actor it felt like a good time to move on. It’s exciting to be back out there and auditioning for things again.

What was your favourite storyline to film and who were your favourite cast members to work with?

My favourite storyline was when Elliot’s mum came into the show and tried to marry him off to a Welsh girl and so Elliot and Steph pretended that they were a couple. You had Steph running around making Welsh cakes and stuff. Those scenes were really fun to film.

In terms of favourite people to work with, well, Kent is one of my best friends now. We were probably a little bit naughty on set because we just couldn’t stop laughing. Carley was brilliant to work with as well.

Your character was part of the golden gang of students. Did you all end up becoming close friends?

Yes, well, I’m really close to Zoe and Kent and I lived with Zoe for years, so it’s really odd not seeing them every day. It was so much fun to be part of that group of students.

What do you think of the new kids on the block?

Well, I think the new students have a lot to live up to, because our group of students had some great storylines and they were five really different characters – so there was some great casting there. Having said that, I think the new guys will do a brilliant job. I worked a little bit before I left and they were all loads of fun to work with, so I think they’ll do a great job at filling those roles!

Elliot’s had a fair bit of luck with the ladies in his time. Are you disappointed that he never found the one? Or was Leila the one who got away?

I do think that Leila was probably the one for Elliot, but he had to let her go off and do her thing. It was really odd that probably the geekiest character in the village ended up getting together with more girls than anyone else in the history of the show!

You must have had fun filming some of those smoochy scenes, no?

It was fun, but it was weird too, because these people were my friends. That’s the thing about being an actor I suppose; having to go into work and kiss one of your friends, or punch one of your friends!

All of those stories were really fun though, because Elliot never had what you’d call a normal relationship. There was always lots of drama surrounding it.

I think I had the best character to play really. I just had so much fun playing him.

Bit of a tough question now. What will be Elliot’s legacy on the show?

His hat. That’s an easy question! In four years I think he took his hat off twice!

That must have been a nightmare when you were filming in the summer.

Oh god, it was boiling! I used to beg for them to let me take it off, but they weren’t having any of it. I had to suffer for my art!

In last night's E4 First Look, and tonight's episode on Channel 4 at 6:30pm, a sinister Warren Fox pays Theresa McQueen an unexpected visit! Theresa's on her own in the McQueen's as Warren demands, "Who have you told?" and poor Theresa looks absolutely petrified!

Our Facebook and Twitter pages have been buzzing after last night's revelation on E4 First Look, and here's what some of you have said...

Over on Facebook, Vicki Lightweight Worsley asked: "What does Theresa know about Warren? What did she see?" and Amy Kliskey-Wilkie replied saying that she thinks: "Theresa saw warren getting out of the fire (the one where he supposedly died)." But Holly Prince thinks, "Even if Theresa did see Warren get out the fire, dom knows he's not dead anyway and tony's seen him, so surely it will soon be obvious to people he aint dead. Why would he threaten her?"

Meanwhile our tweeters have just been absolutely baffled and dying to know what's going to happen next!  Missmuslimah said: "What does warren mean about 'keep quiet' to Theresa. Please, please, ppplllllleeeeeeaaaassssee TELL ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

What do you think Warren is talking about? What the devil is going on between Warren and Theresa?! We want your thoughts, so have your say right here! And make sure you don't miss tonight's E4 First Look at 7pm (or Monday's episode on Channel 4 at 6:30pm), where all may well be revealed...

Welcome to this week’s blog from the Hollyoaks music department.

Hot on the heels of the Late Night shows we’ve had another dramatic week here at Hollyoaks with the action packed fire episodes. High drama called for some dramatic music and with special dispensation to use as much as we wanted, we really went for it.  

This week’s musical highlights on Hollyoaks:

The Recluse (Nero Remix) by Plan B – you’ll no doubt have noticed a recurring theme for the music used throughout the high tension scenes of Amber and Finn climbing on the roof to escape the flames licking at their heels. This week’s episodes were a bit unusual, in that we hopped around the timeline quite a bit, seeing the same action sequences from different characters points of view. For that reason it seemed fitting to create a feeling of cohesion by using the same track to create a theme for the fire and we couldn’t have wished for better than the instrumental version of this amazing remix, filled with drama & tension it was exactly what we needed.

Elephants by Rachael Yamagata -  another instrumental version was used for the extremely moving scene where Steph and Frankie reminisce about Steph’s childhood as they watch the fireworks and they both face up to the fact that Steph’s battle with Cancer is not one she is going to win. This beautiful track gave a real emotional resonance to this scene and it was a real joy to be able to use a track from this wonderful hidden gem of an album (Elephants – Teeth Sinking Into Heart) which we highly recommend you check out.

Hometown Glory by Adele – sometimes less is more when it comes to music and so a lot of searching went on before we found the perfect piece to fit the devastating scene where Gilly can only watch on in horror as Steph makes the final decision of her life - that her time has come. We felt no lyrics were needed as the pictures really did tell the story in this instance and so a short instrumental sequence of the song was all it took to accompany what must be one of the saddest scenes we have ever seen on Hollyoaks.

Gorecki by Lamb – the more eagle eared among you may have spotted that Steph sings a few lines of this song to Gilly as they share (what we later learn is to be) one of their last moments together, walking arm in arm through the park. The track itself was then used to underpin Gilly’s despair as the reality of what he has just witnessed hits home and all he can do is stand by and watch as the flames consume the village and the love of his life.

Don’t Burn The House Down (While I’m Away) by MinionTV – you’d be forgiven for thinking that this track was chosen merely because of the name and believe us, the irony was not lost when we selected this track to underscore the moment where Gilly has to tell Darren & Rhys that Steph has been lost in the fire. Irony aside, this wonderfully sparse instrumental version of the track worked so well we couldn’t not use it.

Missing you by Abi – hard to believe that this stunning track, used for the scene where Gilly & Rhys break the news to Frankie of Steph’s death, is written and performed by a 16 year old! Abi, hailing from the heart of England near Birmingham is set to release her debut album in 2011 and if this track is anything to go by it’ll certainly be worth waiting for.   

On our stereo:

In amongst all the excitement of the fire episodes we’ve still managed to search out some new tracks to tickle your fancy with.

I Blame Coco - 'Caesar' (Miike Snow Remix)

The offspring of Sting is a wonderful thing, she ain't too bling and she can really sing. Here, her latest release is squeezed and squidged by Scandinavian pop maestros 'Miike Snow' (well worth checking out in their own right.) and what pops out of their mixing machine is a veritable pleasure to the ears. Her debut album 'The Constant' is released this week, and contains a tantalising mix of poppy melodies combined with fresh, engaging arrangements.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fnxtICigHU

Claire Maguire - 'Ain't Nobody' (Breakage Remix)

This track is starting to gain widespread attention and deservedly so as it's a slow-burning, beat-heavy belter. Taking inspiration from dubstep but keeping much of the structure of the original track, this remix compliments the original but adds a beautiful sense of space and menace whilst also packing a brutal punch. A master-class for any aspiring re-mixers out there, take something great and make it even better!

More musical goodies await on next week’s episodes of Hollyoaks so until then…

Kate & James

We caught up with Anthony Quinlan (Gilly Roach) today to chat about this week's dramatic fire episodes, and how Gilly will cope with Steph's sudden death. Read all about it here!... 

What have you thought of the fire episodes this week?
So far I think it’s been absolutely amazing - there were some really emotional and dramatic scenes in there, and the reaction from the audience has been brilliant.

Many viewers have said they cried at the episodes – did they bring a tear to your eye?!
They actually did! I was watching it round at my mum’s last night and I didn’t cry then, but I first watched it on E4 on Tuesday - I was watching it on my own and I have to admit I did have a little cry.

What was it like filming such action-packed scenes?
The whole thing was mental; it was so hectic on the night of the stunts. It was breathtaking. The fire was all under control, but when you’re staring it right in the face you think ‘oh god this is a bit much’! I really enjoyed it though.

Viewers were incredibly sad to see Steph go – were you sad when Carley Stenson left? What was she like to work with?
Carley’s absolutely amazing, I was really sad when she left. I’d love it if they could bring her back at least once a month or something, but unfortunately Steph’s popped her clogs so that’s not going to happen. We gave Carley a really big send off and it was emotional. It’s the end of an era, but it’s not goodbye forever. I’m going to go down to see her show in London so I’ll be seeing her again soon.

How does Gilly react to Steph’s shock death?
He’s grieving, he just can’t understand why she took her life like that. The cancer was terminal, but they hadn’t actually determined how many weeks she had left, so for Gilly he will be left wondering why she didn’t want that precious time with him and her family and friends.

They’d actually made a pact to make the most of every day they had left together, but it obviously all became too much for Steph to carry and she decided she had to go. Gilly can’t get his head around that and he wants to ask her why she chose to die, but he’s never going to get an answer to that.

Do you think Gilly would want to have custody of Tom?
There’s definitely a strong bond between Gilly and Tom. They’ve had some great times together and I think once Gilly’s had some time to get his head together, he will definitely be looking out for Tom. But Tom has a really strong connection with the Osbornes as well, so that will be an interesting one to see, but I think Tom’s loyalty would be with the Osbornes.

What can we expect from Gilly in the coming weeks?
As I said he’s going to be grieving, and grief is a horrible period. Under the circumstances of Steph’s death, I think his grief could also turn to anger. He’s going to be asking questions and looking for answers he probably won’t get, so I think over the next few weeks there’s going to be some interesting scenes.

What storylines would you like to see for Gilly in the future?
That’s a good question – I’ve really enjoyed getting stuck into the storyline with Steph and the feedback has been phenomenal. It’s been great working with someone like Carley because she’s brilliant. At the moment the show’s just getting better and better, so whatever storyline I’m given and whoever I’ll be working with next, then bring it on! I’d like to see Gilly go down a bit of a different route because he’s been a bit of a push-over in the past. I’d like to see his character progress a bit more and I’d like to see a side of him that we haven’t seen before.

Make sure you don't miss tomorrow night's episode on Channel 4 at 6:30pm to see the aftermath of the fire in Il Gnosh. How do you think Gilly will cope? What do you think will happen to Malachy? Let us know in the comments box below...

 

Last Saturday we saw another series of The Hollyoaks Music Show Playlist with Matalan.co.uk come to a close. We can barely believe it’s all over already. Brunch just will not be the same without it.

The final episode was hosted by Alex Carter and Jorgie Porter who play, respectively, everyone’s favourite funny man Lee Hunter and everyone’s favourite teenage mum, Theresa McQueen. Sorry, that’s everyone’s other favourite teenage mum (apologies Amy).

Throughout the series we’ve seen some great acts perform in the village including Jason Derulo, Pixie Lott, Tinie Tempah, Tinchie Stryder, Scouting for Girls and loads more. There have been plenty of great moments too. Personal favourites have been when Alex Carter interviewed Pixie Lott in the McQueens’ bath-tub, or when Lil Tom got Jason Derulo all dolled up in the guise of Lady Gaga…

If you did happen to miss any of the action (tut, tut) then don’t worry, you can still catch every frame over on 4od. Plus, you can recap on all the latest from across the series, read blogs and exclusive interviews with the guest stars, watch videos, view pictures from across the series and generally fill yourself up on lovely online content by visiting: http://www.matalan-hollyoaksmusicshow.co.uk/

Malachy and Mercedes have always shared a heated relationship. After Mercedes betrayal with her sister’s fincé Calvin it looked like the couple would never get back together, but then in last night’s episode we saw them rekindle the old flame...in a manner of speaking…ahem.

The big question is though, will their love survive the blaze? And do we want them to get together again? Last night Mercedes said she wanted Mal’s baby, but even if they do get out alive, can she ever stay faithful to him?

Let us know, in the comments box below...

 

Tonight's Hollyoaks sees an unknown person light a match in Il Gnosh, setting the place ablaze and putting Finn, Amber, Amy, Leah and Lucas in grave danger.

Tony's having financial worries, and Dom has decided to get a business loan to help his brother out - but Mandy worries Dom may have gone to Warren for his 'business loan' and could be heading for big trouble. Elsewhere Amber and Finn take a pregnancy test while Amber's being babysat by Amy, and then find themselves caught up in the raging blaze at the Il Gnosh flat...

As Amber and Finn attempt to clamber onto the roof of Il Gnosh to escape the inferno, will they make it to safety? And what will happen to Amy? Make sure you don't miss tonight's Hollyoaks on Channel 4 at 6:30pm to catch all the action!

And why has he returned to Hollyoaks? There's only one way to find out - Make sure you don't miss Hollyoaks First Look tonight on E4 at 7pm, or tomorrow night's Hollyoaks episode on Channel 4 at 6:30pm!

It’s the big fire week on Hollyoaks next week and we’re starting to get a leeetle bit excited…

We can’t reveal what’s going to happen, and who will or won’t emerge from the other side of the blaze in one piece. But what we can reveal is that the village is going to be engulfed in a blaze that will see Malachy and Mercedes, Amy and the kids, Finn and Amber and Steph and Gilly all left in jeopardy.

Will they all make it out safely? Or has the final hour come for some of your favourite stars? Who do you think might survive?

Let us know your thoughts in the comments box below…

Next week will see Hollyoaks change forever, as a huge fire rages through Il Gnosh! The disaster will see some of Hollyoaks best-loved characters trapped in an uncontrollable blaze – but who is doomed, and who will make it out alive?

Read all about the drama that’s set to happen, and which characters will be trapped in the fire, by reading our episode spoilers! And you can also watch the fiery Channel 4 trailer right here!

Carley Stenson, who plays Hollyoaks’ Steph Dean, will appear on T4 this Saturday to talk about the upcoming fire episodes, and most likely to have many laughs with the T4 presenters…

It’s been a hectic few months for Carley, what with rehearsing for West End musical ‘Legally Blonde’ and, of course, filming the exciting and dramatic Hollyoaks scenes. We always love having Carley’s cheery face around the office here and we’re sure she can help brighten your weekend too. T4 goes out on Channel 4 this Saturday from 08:55 to 13:55. Make sure you don’t miss it!

In a year full of new cast members, we had another new arrival on the show this past week. Bonny baby Angel is the illicit love-child of Theresa and the late Calvin Valentine.

Almost before Angel could issue her first gurgle though, the McQueen clan were already wrangling over who should have custody. Carmel is still hung up on the fact that Theresa shot her husband on their wedding day. She’s threatening to go to the police with what she knows.

Meanwhile, Jacqui and Theresa have ganged up against Carmel. And just to add an extra complication, Theresa’s gone and bagged a copper called Logan! What a pickle!

What do you think Carmel should do? Should she reveal the truth or keep schtum about what she knows? Let us know your thoughts in the comments box below:

With Friday came the thrilling conclusion of Hollyoaks Later 2010 – and what a wild ride it was!

(If you haven’t managed to catch up with the last episode yet, look away now. Better yet, get yourself over to 4OD and watch it now!)

Bart finally found out the truth about Jasmine and Jason after being stabbed by Fern. Nasty Nathan met his end after chasing the Costellos through the woods with a shotgun and threatening to break Riley’s legs and ruin his football career the same way Carl ruined his brother’s career. Mercedes came close to having unprotected sex with Malachy after lying about being HIV positive. Theresa went into early labour after being attacked by Mitzeee.

There was so much action in one week – did you enjoy the show? What was your favourite storyline? What do you think should happen to all the characters now? Was this your favourite series of Hollyoaks Later ever?
