Hollyoaks: Get ready, Freddie!

I was devastated when Freddie Roscoe was killed by his wife, Lindsey (aka The Gloved Hand) but it didn't last long as the good people at Hollyoaks didn't keep his survival secret from us for too long. 

Fred has since been holed up in Police Witness Protection, and will soon be let loose back into the village, when DS Thorpe - who is possibly the worst copper, ever, in soap land! - realises that Trevor couldn't ever have been the serial killer. 

While Freddie has been away, the Roscoe's have said a final farewell to poor Ziggy (still can't get over it, *sob*) and Lindsey has managed to get her claws back into her 'safe place', that is Joe. 

While things begin to look up for Lindsey, in more ways than one, and Kim is happy that her sister (probably!) won't kill again, Freddie phones his wife... 

The conversation will surely go one of two ways...

'Hey honey... I'm home back from the dead!' 

It's this one that would prove to us that Fred doesn't have a dolly-donut that Lindsey is the one who almost bumped him off. 

But seeing as she's now 'pregnant' with Joe's baby, and we know from secret squirrel soap sites, that Freddie will be sleeping on the Nightingales' sofa, it doesn't look like Frindsey will be back together any time soon. Fred had best have eyes in the back of his head, as of course, when Linds goes to meet him, she brings along her trusty killer kit, to syringe him once more! Luckily for Freddie, his brothers walk in just at the right time, so he's safe from Hollyoaks heaven. For now...

Ellie Nightingale had also better watch out, as her feelings for Freddie also grow, and the pair end up getting it together. 

I'd bet that Lindsey will hate Freddie moving on without her, even though she sees Joe as her saviour. She's obviously a 'cake and eat it' kinda gal. 

The second way the conversation could turn is...

'Guess what, you didn't manage to really kill me, you psychotic crazy lady!' 

I doubt it'll be this one. If only for story progression. I can't help but wonder though, if Freddie does know deep down that Lindsey is the killer. 

He loves her, so is he protecting her, even though she was after his blood? And if he's not keeping schtum because of his feelings, has he got an ulterior motive, of revenge?
We know that Fred loves to dice with danger, so either way, it could work. 

We also know that Lindsey will be unmasked to her fellow villagers this year, and if Freddie isn't the one to prove her guilt, maybe it will come from little Charlie, who saw her kill Dr S'avage?

Failing that, there's also dastardly old Silas, who's returned to crack the Gloved Hand case himself. 

And like the old saying goes... It takes one to know one, if you know what I mean...
