Also, the writers need to give Zara some respect. Zara is amazing. The actress must be so bored with being the loser in every storyline, never being taken seriously by the writers or the characters, and only being allowed to make the Comedy Zara Face (brow furrowed, eyes half-crossed, lip curling in confusion) once an episode. She needs some sympathy. She needs a love storyline! She hasn't really had one since she was a goff and went out with that bloke who was in a band. I think. My memory's gone a bit hazy. |

She was good at being angry at who ever had raped/crippled/dumped one of her family. One time she let rip at Mandy and Mandy gave her a taste of own medicine was class. Her switch from Goth to Chav after splitting with Brian a few years ago was spot on and streets ahead of Corrie. But it's been so long since she had been interesting I'd completely forgotten Zara's glory days. Re: Brian, didn't he go off with Lisa (World's shittest friend TM)? Or was it Steph? They should make Zara prettier and try and salvage something of Cameron's love life from the wreckage of the 'Bella is poor' storyline by gettting them together. They should also write her some semblence of a brain. |

How could Zara choose monkey Lee over gorgeous Cameron though?

Didn't both Lisa AND Zara shun Cameron's advances at one point?
Idiots.

How could Zara choose monkey Lee over gorgeous Cameron though? Why did Hollyoaks cast Lee? Did they think he was going to grow into some stunning piece of man? I was looking at the Hollyoaks 'Hunks' calendar the other week. Hardly a great specimen of manhood between them. They even had Tom on it. Who is five. Dear Phil Redmond, we don't watch Hollyoaks to look at people less pretty than ourselves. Sort it. I would suggest a fire which manages to scar the ugly into other more attractive actors. Love Cherubic. P.S. Why do all the characters have amazingly well defined lips? |

I have recently started to get back into Hollyoaks after ages of not watching it, and some of the characters have changed...
Mel used to be the nice twin and Sophie was the horrible one, but now it's the other way round. Mel wasn't very nice to Darlene and Sophie was. Strange.
I also used to HATE Zara but now I quite like her. She does need some lovin though. Shame Bella left, the way they ended her storyline by revealing her secret was a bit naff though. It looked so rushed...
And I have no idea what happened to Callum (who was Steve in Brookie) - he just disappeared.
They do need a clearout, starting with Steph, Darren, Lisa, Ali (the worst actor in it), the crap American one, and all of the Owens.
Candy is ace though, and I have a real soft spot for poor Becca, she's lovely and if I was straight, she'd be a great g/f..
And where the hell is Ellie? She's not been seen for ages, but she hasn't left as she was briefly mentioned last week. She's still on the official site too. Weird...

Hollyoaks, reguarly allows characters to dissapear for week and months. It's so the actors can have a rest. In more credible soaps, they tend not to allow this. That's what makes Hollyoaks great! |

Although I thought him and Lisa would end up together but she's too busy being a little slut with that lanky oaf she's porking. And next to the divine Izzy ('It isn't easy being as talented as me you know'), Zara is my fave Hollyoaks character ever. |

Bring back Anna, all is forgiven. No! Anna was awful! So Bella was poor? Despite watching most of the omnibus last week I have missed the reason behind the exit of Mighty Bella! Yet I get to see far too much of Mardy Lisa talking about sex. Has Hollyoaks become some kind of punishment for not watching Brookside? Mind you, I do like Danni. She is very attractive and has a lovely speaking voice, which is very rare in Chester these days. |

She's not been seen for ages, but she hasn't left as she was briefly mentioned last week. She's still on the official site too. Weird... The best Hollyoaks AWOL moment was when Beth left to be in Dream Team. There was a four-month period where she was constantly being mentioned - including an ace bit where Mrs Morgan yelled, "Beth! Tell your brother to come downstairs!" - before she briefly reappeared, only to go on a French exchange. Now, I'm sure some 16-year-olds out there have been on French exchanges. They last 2 weeks. Beth was on one for a year, and when she came back, she was 30. But anyway, who is Ellie? Who is Anna? Who is/was Callum? Who is Olly? Who is Darren? (Do you mean OB?) Hollyoaks has way too many characters, all leaving at 6-weekly intervals. |

Anna was a vicar's daughter who worse glasses and was a bit boring, but when she let her hair down and took her glasses off she become gorgeous. Callum, I'm not sure. Maybe he's that ugly American. Olly, maybe he is that ugly American. Darren maybe he is that ugly American. |

Callum was (I think) Dan and Ben's friend, played by Steve from Brookside. Darren is Jack Osborne's son, played by Ashley Taylor Dawson of allSTARS fame, and Ollie...I draw a blank. Unless you mean Ollie Benson, way back when.

Wasn't Ollie Kurts brother, way at the start of the show.
Didn't he die in a car crash which may/may not have had Cindy involved? (possibly something to do with pregnancy and Stan or I could be making this up)
Oh old Hollyoaks back in the days Tony was fun.

Yep, I meant Ollie Benson, he was Mandy's first boyfriend in the show when she was 15. I think she is meant to be 22/23 now.
last night she she said that she never does anything 'spur of the moment', has she forgotten running off to London after her dad tried to rape her? One of Hollyoaks' finest moments was that 'what happened to Mandy' storyline.

Mel is my new favourite person.
"Some women might think.... If anything.... That you're a bit... Puny?" All this whilst she's dressed in four-foot furry angel wings.
She's ace as fucking spades, and then some.

No-one's mentioned the Lee/Bombhead near-bumming yet. I am ashamed of you all.
They're the most entertaining thing in it at the moment, bar nobody and nothing.
"Remember what Val said? 'Little pickers wear big knickers!'"
Much needed entertainment in a week of complete and utter stupidity, including Tony and Mandy's break-up. She used to beat him up for Christ's sake, and he never went all drama queen and left her. Silly cow.

(possibly something to do with pregnancy and Stan or I could be making this up) Oh old Hollyoaks back in the days Tony was fun. Oh! Ollie! Yes, he died when the car got driven into a river, or something. Lucy made him get in the car. It made her very guilty. It was connected to that oh-so-drawn-out drugs plotline from yesteryear, with Rob the Drug Dealer who killed Natasha (Ruth's cousin who died about 2 months into the soap's history) with a spiked cocktail. Hollyoaks is like the world's longest-running anti-drugs education video. Also, now that I've remembered who Ellie is, what did happen to her? She didn't go to prison so Steph tried to make her crazy... then what? Aah, glasses. I remember Anna. She had a baby with Alex, who was thought to be infertile. She was boffing Max for a while. He went to get a job doing lots of improtant computer programming in Japan and tried to steal the baby, but didn't succeed. Did she go off with him in the end? |

She briefly came downstairs when Dan died, only for someone to say something about him going to jail because of her and she went back upstairs. or away. or whereever she is. |

Don't you just love the way 'Oaks' lectures to the viewers. During Lisa's Clamhidia storyline, Zara sternly told her "the pill only protects against pregnancy, not STI's". Not only is the line straight from a sex education lesson, or a sexual health leaflet, the way she says it is as if she is saying it to you.
In the same episode we had Sam lecturing Russel on his ball lump, telling him he should go and see the doctor about it. I love Hollyoaks because it patronises me.
EDIT: Russel has just had his balls fondled by the doctor. Sam asked him if it was embarassing and Russel said: "No he was dead matter-of-fact about it actually." Believe me, it is fucking embarassing.
