Uhh him saying that Brendan is Ste's true love is making me feel some kinda way.....on one hand I think "Good the two losers deserve each other.". On the other I was sorta hoping that he would see that Doug is a better fit for him....

EDIT: Regarding Hollyoaks Later was the very last episode the one with Tony proposing? I was actually very moved by that scene. Much as I love Jacqi I do like Tony with Diane! Anyways I thought 5 episodes was kinda short but is that normal for Later episodes?

The Later specials are always only five episodes.

I find it interesting that Kieron says those things in print, while during the actual show, the writers have his character doing the exact opposite.

Does the show, the writers and Kirkwood care that Kieron undermines what they have written for Ste's onscreen storyline, by saying that he feels the opposite about his character's actions?

Another interview with Kieron.

http://www.soapsquawk.co.uk/news/kieron-richardson-celebrates-hollyoaks-18th-birthday.php#results

I swear, he's going to turn into Hollyoaks' version of Tony Geary in a couple of years and will start to place the blame on his fan base for not wanting to see Ste grow away from the past history of Stendan and Brendan Brady.

It's weird, limiting and undermines everything that the show attempts to do for the character and his future. Now, I'm not the biggest fan of the Ste Hay character, but people (especially Kieron) are reacting like he never existed, had a purpose or storyline before Brendan Brady showed up.

Sadly, it's as if he didn't exist before Brendan. Anything interesting of his past is gone, along with most of Kieron's acting ability.

The character is utterly worthless now, IMO. Bringing in a creepy father for "John Paul forbidden romance #43" doesn't change that.

I knew it was too much to hope for that Daren died in that explosion. But then again I'm only a few minutes into it so we'll see. Much as I want him to die I don't want the old man Jack to suffer anymore. Nor Sandy.....sad.png

Ughhh this show is DEMENTED. Ashley and Dodger? WTF............

My poor Mercedes.....Jesus Christ this is the most painful cringe inducing episode of Hollyoaks I've seen yet....

That was a very strange moment and I'm glad that Ste wasn't all "I finally got my daddy back" in the next episode. He was standoffish, especially when Danny didn't initially tell Sam or Peri about who he really was to him.

I'm enjoying Lindsey, Cindy and Mercedes joining forces to keep Browning's murder from being revealed. I wonder who's going to be the first to crack?

YESSSSSSS!!!

I HATE HIM SO MUCH

Jesus Christ Maxine....sad.png

Hollyoaks has become very depressing all of sudden....I hope it gets back to being more cheery soon. I was really rooting for Maxine and Dodger but how can he ever forgiver her after THAT?

AAAWWWW at Phoebe and Evil Twin....love young romance stories! They were so adorable....

    • Has BTG been using flashbacks much? Of course, as a new show there aren't many f/b worthy moments but I think they can get by w/o having to use/recreate the Leslie reveal scene. What other 'soap' tropes have they employed or ignored so far? We've talked about the lack of traditional cliffhangers with lingering camera shots. They have done a couple of fantasy scenes. Has anyone apart from Dana had talk to themselves scenes? Montages?
    • Thank You!!! @rsclassicfanforever and to anyone else who contributed to the vaults over the years. I have dipped in/out and gotten my life watching Y&R early years. I never would had the appreciation for characters like Lorie Brooks if not for the Vaults, so again, Thanks.
    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
