OH NO! I forgot! I used to love that guy who used to be in Out Of Tune on Children's BBC. We used to chant 'Street Street Street' whenever he came on. Because that was his name in Out Of Tune, obviously. Simple pleasures. Was that Sam?

He was one of the early student types and it would have been around 1999 - 2000, when I was an early student type myself.

He was the chinless wonder that got bookworm Anna pregnant but denied that the baby could be his because he had been told that he was infertile. Can't remember his name, but I loathed that character.

Oh god I'd totally forgotten about Anna. She was like the american 'geek' type who when the specs came off was actually pretty.

Wasn't the father Alex (Martino Lazzer-something) who was in Grange Hill first? I think the Out of Tune guy was called Sam. A quick check of IMDB... Yes: www.imdb.com/name/nm0236071/

Well done Jode! I can't remember a thing he did in it though. Don't think he killed, raped, impregnated or burnt anyone!

Wasn't that the era when the only non-blonde girls in it were geeky, single-mother brunette Anna and overweight ginger Chloe? I also recall when Anna joined along with 20 others in a student flat (when the Oaks went 5-nightly or something) that suddenly appeared, the Mandy Richardson University of Chester switched from being a place people sat their A-levels in (characters in the beginning like Jabe the tree person from Doctor Who) to being the kind of place that Anna went to after receiving all A's at A-Level.

She started with Sam, Alex and Geri. It was one of the big changes in Hollyoaks, to be fair it did practically become a different tv show. But thank god they changed the theme tune.

No! The original theme tune was the best. Does anyone know where I can hear it? Anyway, I remember the story with Anna. There was that guy who was told he was sterile, but he got her pregnant anyway, and he didn't believe it was his and thought it was Adam's(?) who was Luke's brother. He got crippled in a car crash. I think Mandy was driving. Then didn't she get with Max and he was saying he was going to support her and the baby and then she ran home to her vicar dad, never to be seen again....

I am now going to amaze you with how sad I am:
Anna was de-virgined by Sam (aka Street!) who then binned her off for Nikki (the cad). She then got together with Alex who got mumps (I think) which then (he thought) made him infertile only it hadn't because he got Anna up the stick. He didn't beleive it was his and they broke up. She had her (fantastically ugly) baby and got together with Max. Meanwhile Alex clearly fancied an easy lay because he got together with Becca. At some point and for no good reason Alex then decided that the baby (Charlie) was his and decided to abduct it. He and Becca were going to take it to Hong Kong (how bizarre). Anna and Max raced to the airport to stop them and then, even more bizarrely, Alex declared his love for Anna. She conveniently forgot that he'd just tried to steal her baby and decided to go with him to Hong Kong. They then went to Hong Kong and binned off their partners at the airport: Max (who clearly did not deserve such treatment, especially at the hands of a speccy geek) and Becca (who clearly did, she is such a bike).
The whole thing was almost without redemption except for the fact that Becca had told everyone that she was going to Hong Kong and then had to return shamefaced from the airport and explained that she had been binned off at the last minute in favour of a frumpy geek with massive glasses. Ha ha! Soap justice strikes again!

Oh I vaguely remember all this! So Becca was going to nick someone's baby!? How is this never mentioned?

She did mention Alex a while ago (she was moaning to Mandy about how cack she is with men) but neglected to mention being a baby thief. When she came back from the airport she was shunned for a bit but then, as usual, everyone forgot about it.
However I am convinced that it will come back to haunt her as soon as she has her own sprog as I think that Jake (The Worst Alcoholic in Soap) will probably abduct it. As yet soap justice has not really punished her enough for being a paedo (not being able to get a proper job is not punishment - she only ever worked at crappy Hollyoaks comp so she clearly never had any standards) so something bad must surely happen to her soon.
I have to say that I also think that it is quite disgusting that given she doesn't know who the father of the unborn baby she is STILL letting Justin shag her! Poor Jake. If my unborn baby were getting poked by some barely legal, wife shagging former (alleged) murderer I'd probably turn to drink as well.

If I was Becca I'd let Foz poke my unborn baby.

I wouldn't purely because he's going out with Nancy (seriously - in all of Hollyoaks history this may well be the most unrealistic plot development ever). She's a skank and a half.

in all of Hollyoaks history this may well be the most unrealistic plot development ever Nah, for an area of Chester in which people are regularly murdered, cut in half by a jetski, suspended in a navy flotation training tank that empties into the river for a week, drive around in bubble cars with giant animal ears, stalk people in Scream masks, have regular bouts of "comedy" mild nudity, only swear if it's after 10pm, be haunted by the ghosts of murdered actresses and over 50% of the population are blonde girls and/or rapists (who according to 'Oaks logic seem to divide into "good" and "bad" rapists), I think that "most unrealistic plot development" has some competition.

To be fair, only Rob Hawthorne's swimming pool of revenge makes them look like a couple of workaday realism.
