this all sounds intersting.

I reckon it will be Theresa or Mercedes that kills Calvin. Never the less as soon as Marquess starts his run,i`ll be tuning in.

The ratings are down to under 800,000 now. I wonder if the show will even be on by this time next year.

I know they have had a bad patch but still I didn't think that so many would flee the show

I think BBC,ITV and CHannel 4 need to reorganise these soaps.

EE should be on 3 times a week (Monday 8pm,Wednesday 7.30pm,Friday 8pm)

Corrie needs to knock off an episode off Monday & Friday

Emmerdale is fine but needs more publicity

Oaks needs to get rid of E4 First Look and get a new time.

Good ideas, badboy93.

This must be another Lucy Allan idea? India is getting a 20 year old sister, Texas Longford. That sounds like a porn star name.

Who in the blue hell are Dave, Charlotte and India?

Edited May 3, 201015 yr by Amello

They're students. Dave is leaving. He's a godson of the Ashworths. Charlotte is bisexual, she was an ex-girlfriend of psychotic Lydia, who accidentally killed Sarah. India is a student who was cast in some big casting call last year. She's been involved with Josh, and then Rhys, which helped drive Josh further to the bottle and further away from a hairdresser. She may be most remembered for wonderful scenes where she sh!t herself.

when did she S*** herself lol

India is sexy but lacks RAW talent that Ben Davies & Louise Summers had (They had the same casting cull India had).

Charlotte is good and would like more stories around

Dave annoys me

Monday`s episode is usual Lucy Allen boredom. Who Killed Calvin? is just a terrible dull story. I reckon it will be Mercedes.

It has hit me today that i think Hollyoaks is worn out. You can introduce fresh faces and fresh stories but i just reckon that this soap is all worn out.

It was early on in India's run (no pun intended) I think. I remember a lot of shock about it at Digital Spy.

I think there's still a change for Hollyoaks to be reinvented, if Marquess knows what to do and if Channel 4 gives it a chance. It's not like they have a lot else.

true but watching Lucy Allan`s material is just draining the show`s life. Not even The McQueens can save it and they are the best things on the show.

I am going to ask a certain someone a question i askeed about DS.

What were in your opinion the highs and lows of Lucy Allan`s run in Hollyoaks.

-Characters

-Storylines

-Stunts

-Other

I know it will be mostly negative but i want to see a long rant from someone.I am in the mood.

I think the McQueens are only at their strongest with good material, which they haven't had since 2007.

I haven't seen enough of the show over the past few years to give a full opinion, but I do have to give a special shoutout to Teresa/Calvin, an idea which is lazy and horrific beyond the telling.

And Clare being beaten by Sasha, of all people.

And to Kirkwood for bringing in unbearable Spencer, and Allan keeping him on. Ugh.

Texas sounds like Allan's final character, ugh. I hope India and her sister are killed...

Spencer is just a terrible character. Why was he around after Warren died. They should lock him up and throw away the key.

I want Clare back soo much. She and a number of past characters could really save the show.

Does anyone remember Will Hackett. i enjoyed the story where she was spying on Zoe with the webcam and then drugging her. That was a great storyline.

Waring promises more bitchy 'Oaks plots

Waring promises more bitchy 'Oaks plots

Hollyoaks star Stephanie Waring has revealed that her character Cindy Cunningham is to return to her bitchy old ways in future storylines.

Fans have seen the schemer become softer in recent months after she decided to settle down with new husband Tony Hutchinson, played by Nick Pickard.

However, in an interview with Radio Times, Waring promised that viewers have not seen the last of her alter-ego's unpleasant side, which she dubbed "uber-Cindy".

The actress commented: "I'm excited about [it]. It's so much more exciting to play a character with character."

Speaking of Cindy's appeal to viewers, she said: "I see [her] as a 'fun bitch' rather than a nasty one like [Coronation Street's] Tracy or [Hollyoaks'] Clare Devine. Cindy has a swagger and delusions of grandeur and I think people love to hate that."

Hollyoaks' series producer Paul Marquess recently announced that there is an "outrageous" plotline ahead for Cindy. The story will lead to her bowing out temporarily as Waring is expecting her second child.

Fine by me. I hope Marquess' vision doesn't disappoint. Does he have a good history with Cindy types?

Well, Mercedes just won some points with me by beating Cheryl's ass down...
