HOLLYOAKS - Who will win the Savage brothers' final showdown?

Tonight we will say goodbye to Dodger Savage, in Hollyoaks, as he comes to blows with his murderous brother Will in a final, heart-stopping clash.

We've seen Will break out of a courthouse, during his appeal trial in a fab episode, and the drama has risen since. 

Will is out for revenge against Dodger, as he's jealous of the life that he's carved out for himself. Last Friday's first look E4 epsiode saw Will give Dodger the ultimate ultimatum - he could save just one of either Maxine or Theresa. 

Choosing Maxine over Theresa, Dodger was shocked to find his (just as demented as Will!) twin sister Sienna in an abandoned warehouse instead of Maxine. 

Theresa and Maxine are instead trapped on the Savages boathouse, which Will decides to blow up. As he's already facing a double murder sentence, Will really doesn't see himself as having much more to lose, but these new pictures show that Will also has another potential victim up his sleeve - Dodger's daughter/niece (it is Hollyoaks, remember!) Nico... 

The soot-looks on the boys faces point to the boathouse having already gone up in flames. My guess is that Will wasn't able to get away with harming either Maxine or Theresa, so turns his attentions to Nico instead. 

With Will wanting to push the teen to her death, Dodger wastes no time in rushing to save her, ending in the two brothers having their second rooftop brawl (remember the one a couple of years ago, when Will was revealed to be Texas and Anna's killer?) 

The difference this time is that it's been confirmed that the brawl WILL end in life-threatening consequences for someone. Who will it be? And how will crazy Sienna react to Nico being in danger?

There have also been rumours that the mystery gloved-hand killer will strike once again, but will this tie in with the Savage's drama?

I would make a guess that poor Dodge won't live happily ever after, as I don't see how he could up and leave Hollyoaks, and Maxine, behind, as well as Theresa and their baby, Myra-Pocahontas. I hate to say it, but I think Dodger will soon be reunited with Texas in Hollyoaks heaven. 

Whether that's due to Will's rooftop actions or the gloved-hand, remains to be seen. 

Will Will (Will, Will?) survive, though? Or will HE be the gloved-hand victim? Or am I completely down the wrong street, and the mystery murderer kills someone else?

As for the gloved hand... Apart from news cuttings on obsessed Will's prison desk, did we ever find out what happened to Silas, after he ducked out of the village on that bus, and on the run from police? No, I didn't think so, either...

HOLLYOAKS - Will Mercedes be murdered?

It's been an emotional week for the McQueen's, after the tragic wedding train crash, which killed Carmel.

But if my detective work is correct - Mercedes could be the next member of the clan to be cruelly taken away.

We know that Jennifer Metcalfe, who plays Mercy, is leaving the soap soon - and it's been promised that she'll go with just as much drama as her sister, Carmel.

Mercedes has already rubbed Freddie Roscoe up the wrong way, after revealing to Grace that Freddie killed her dad, Fraser. If you didn't see the drama of last night's E4 first look, then tonight's Channel 4 will catch you right up!

Without spoiling too much, the episode ended with Lindsey going into labour in The Loft, just as she told Freddie that she was handing him in to the police...

It's known that Freddie and Lindsey will give in to their feelings once again, after Freddie delivers the baby, who's not known whether to be his or his brother - and Lindsey's fiance - Joe's. The pair are caught by a mystery person, who goes on to blackmail Freddie.

Before long, this mystery meddler is paid a visit by a sinister individual - and then goes missing.

The meddlers family isn't too worried at first, thinking he or she has just gone on holiday, but when their passport is found at home, the police are called.

Freddie then realises that he's lost his necklace, and returns to the scene of the crime, just before the police think they have enough evidence to launch a MURDER investigation...

Is the missing person Mercedes?

Has Freddie killed, yet again - and what will this mean for Lindsey, him and his possible newborn son?

HOLLYOAKS - End of the Line begins!

Tonight is the beginning of the End of the Line.

Hollyoaks' biggest, and rumoured to be BEST, stunt ever.

The wedding party train is set to crash, burn and explode, leaving lives in the balance and some lives ended.

As we know, it's Porsche McQueen's wedding to Lockie Campbell, meaning the train will be packed with our favorite family - along with the bad Blakes!

It was revealed this weekend that the cause of the train derailing will be Sienna (it had to be, really, didn't it!) and Maxine driving to the train station, so that Maxine could re-declare her love to Dodger, who's also on the train, playing happy families with Theresa and baby Myra-Pocahontas.
The girls' car ends up stuck on the tracks, leaving them desperate to get themselves and the car off the tracks as they see the party train hurtling towards them...

Both girls manage to escape (as we know that poor Maxine ends up giving birth in a railway hut, with Patrick then leaving her, telling people she's dead!) - but cray-cray Si-Si ends up fretting that her daughter Nico is also on the train, after finding the teens hoodie near the wreckage. As Dodger attempts to stop his twin from going onto the wrecked carriage, the train explodes, in a fireball. Will this be the moment Sienna tells Dodger that he is actually Nico's dad? If so - that might cause an almighty explosion of it's own!

Meanwhile, before the train crashes to it's fate, the McQueen's also end up disowning Carmel all over again, when Myra (the adult - not the baby-Pocahontas!) finds Carmel's passport, along with little Kathleen-Angel's, realising that she was planning on fleeing with Theresa's eldest girl.

Although Carm pleads with her family that she changed her mind - and didn't want to run off with Sonny and Kathleen-Angel after all - they still say that they can't forgive her.

Will Carmel be a victim, and how will her family feel if she dies, knowing they broke her heart right before hand?

Watch the start of the drama tonight, Channel 4 at 6.30pm and First Look on E4 at 7pm.

HOLLYOAKS - Theresa begins her fight for freedom

Theresa McQueen made a mystery phone call in last Friday's E4 First Look Hollyoaks, and tonight we see who she's relying on for help.

I thought that Theresa might have called upon her Auntie Myra - as we know that she'll soon be returning to the village - but this time Theresa is relying on her (unreliable!) mother Kathleen to help her.

Theresa needs her mums help...

Sonny Valentine promised Theresa that she would have no more to do with her daughter Kathleen-Angel, as he and Carmel were bringing her up together happily. Sonny is, of course, Kathleen-Angel's uncle, brother of Calvin, who was shot dead by Theresa when she first found out that she was pregnant with his baby. 

Knowing that she needs to fight back, as to not lose her little girl, Theresa hopes that her mum will be able to intervene. And Kathleen proves herself willing for the task, making an immediate clash with Sonny!

It was reported this weekend that Carmel McQueen would be leaving 'Oaks, as actress Gemma Merna has decided to move on to pastures new... 

How do you think Theresa makes her break from prison?

HOLLYOAKS - Bye Bye Carmel!

Bye Bye Carmel!

It's was a bit of a sob Sunday for Hollyoaks fans yesterday, as Gemma Merna announced that she would be leaving the soap.

That can only mean one thing... we say 'see ya' to Carmel McQueen, too. *Dries eyes*

After eight years, an upcoming story will see Carmel totter away from Hollyoaks, but how will she go?

Now, we all know that Theresa is returning to the village, havign seen her first appearance in Friday's first look on E4. How will Carmel feel about this, as we all know that she's taken Theresa's daughter, Kathleen-Angel on as her own. Will our Carm' run off with the little'un - or will Theresa go to dramatic lengths to make sure she keeps her baby?

Sonny Valentine is also a massive wrong-un, isn't he! As much as the cop seems to love Carmel, he's no stranger to seeing people off or putting them in danger...

Of course, Carmel could always just chuck on her stilettos and sashay off into the sunset to live with her sister Jacqui in Spain, or, knowing Myra is making a short comeback, Carmel could leave with her mum.

Gemma Merna told the Daily Star Sunday:

"I've had a great time being part of the show for eight years and I'm excited to push myself and explore new avenues. I've got an exciting business launch for later in the year that I'm working on. I also have some great storylines before I go."

Hollyoaks' executive producer Bryan Kirkwood added: "The role of Carmel was never in our plan until Gemma Merna tottered into the audition room with a gold lamé handkerchief and thigh-high boots.I'd like to thank her for being a valued company member and for creating one of our most lovable characters."

Who else is going to miss our Carm'?

These pictures show Maxine Minniver finally looking as though she's going to escape from abusive fiance Patrick Blake. But does she manage her getaway?

Maxine arrives at the airport

Looking a million dollars in tonight's E4 Hollyoaks, Maxine is dropped at the airport ready to fly to America to her sister, Mitzeee. (Yes, that's THREE eee's on purpose - we all remember MitzEEE, right?!)

After gaining help from her friends, Dennis and Blessing - Maxne got the funds she needed to make her break, scared for herself and her unborn baby, if she was to stay with the bully headteacher.

Fans have been told, though, to expect one last twist in this tale.

Does Maxine get away?

As we would have seen in the Six Weeks of Summer trailer - Maxine does end up down the aisle with Patrick, so what could possibly happen next?

We've been told that this week hosts some unmissable episodes of Hollyoaks - with the Patrick/Maxine story finally coming to a head.

What do you think happens?

HOLLYOAKS - Fraser's killer revealed today!

Today is the day Hollyoaksers!

The day we find out who killed Fraser Black...

Who killed Fraser, do you think?

At 4pm, Hollyoaks' Snapchat will reveal a picture of the killer - but if you want to wait, you can see for yourself on E4 at 7pm on tonight's first look - or Monday at 6.30pm on Channel 4 - but no one's gong to do that, right?

The Hollyoaks team have kindly asked that anyone who DOES check Snapchat out, DOES NOT reveal the identity of the killer on social media, so as to not spoil the reveal for anyone who wants to watch it on air.

Will you be downloading Snapchat, just for the reveal?

We have been told (by Holier Than Thou cop Sonny Valentine) that either Sandy, Joe or Freddie Roscoe is the culprit. But are they really, or is it a red herring?

Who do you guys think it is, and will you be Snapchatting at 4pm to find out?
