Members Bright Eyes Posted September 21, 2010 Members Share Posted September 21, 2010 Since when is Jacqui dating Brendan? I thought they were going full steam ahead with Jacqui/Rhys? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 21, 2010 Members Share Posted September 21, 2010 It seems like Marquess is just casting random actors he wants on one of his shows into the Brady saga. So many pointless characters, from Brendan (I'm sorry but I just don't buy anything with this man), to Darren Day, whom I only know of from being on that I'm a Celebrity show. And although I liked her in Hollyoaks Later, Lindsey is also pointless. Veronica was awful -- a less talented Patsy Kensit. Now that Glen Wallace has left, Malachy is also pointless. Maybe this stuff is the reason he left... As for Kevin, he's definitely going. He was listed as leaving in an article about Carley Stenson's goodbye party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted September 21, 2010 Members Share Posted September 21, 2010 What are the ratings like? Are they going to cancel it soon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted September 21, 2010 Members Share Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) They get less than 2 million, but I don't think it will be canceled anytime soon. It's not like Hollyoaks ever got high ratings before. Edited September 21, 2010 by Amello 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 22, 2010 Members Share Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) It has what the Americans would call good demos, apparently. I guess it serves a niche right now that the other UK soaps don't quite really. I think it's safe for a while yet. Is Phil redmond still involved? I know he was royally pissed when Channel 4 canceled his Brookside and threatened to take Hollyoaks away, but now tih Hillside and his famous youth soap Grange Hill gone, I got the impression he was gonna keep Hollyoaks around as long as possible. Either way it's still in the "Big 4" with Corrie, Eastenders and Emmerdale, and since it's Channel 4's only soap up there, I think that's another reason it will kick around (though I'm sure it's last on that list...)

Members DRW50 Posted September 22, 2010 Members Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't know if Phil has had any involvement in years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted September 22, 2010 Members Share Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) Phil Redmond hasn't had any creative influence on Hollyoaks in about 4 or 5 years, that's when the show was sold to a new production company (which was later renamed Lime Pictures). Read more about that development on the Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_Pictures Edited September 22, 2010 by Y&RWorldTurner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 22, 2010 Members Share Posted September 22, 2010 It's confirmed that Charlotte is gone Why not just have her leave with Dave? Marquess just seems to want to get rid of almost anyone from the cast he didn't create. I'm worried for those few who are still left. Is he just waiting until he can fire them? http://www.e4.com/blog/hollyoaks/post/8wod7k7sblacbfeaotd4ew/view.e4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bright Eyes Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 Again with Darren and Cindy. I wonder/hope if they'll be pursuing each other when Steph Waring returns from maternity leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 Steph just gave birth, so itwill probably be a long time before any of it plays out again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 According to her Twitter Sarah Jayne Dunn (Mandy) will be in a few eps of Hollyoaks next month. So, I guess Steph dies and she's Mandy is back for the funeral? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 YAY! This could also be for the death of Dominic, IMO. Either way, Steph's death is kind of going to be lame considering none of her siblings will be there. Not even Johnno will be returning, I'm guessing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
