Hollyoaks - Weekdays 6.30pm C4, 7pm E4

In a move bound to be reversed sooner rather than later, The Dog is getting a new name under the management of the Ashworths - The Jolly Roger.

Are Lime Pictures trying to save Equity Fees by not showing the faces of some actors?

I struggle to comprehend why 'Special Operations' PCs would wear their balaclavas in the privacy of a (presumably secure) briefing room.

That was rather bizarre wasn't it.

Hopefully they'll tweak the titles too and maybe even the theme - it's something they did with the early late night specials, but the later ones (before the E4 spin offs) just used the regular titles IIRC even though half the characters didn't feature in them (though back then, half the people in the titles had left anyway!).

Dont see the point of Hollyoaks late night - its quite boring so far IMO. Would have been better to have just had just a 1 hour late night special for the main event, 5 extra hours in one week is overkill IMO.

Nice titles though.

It's often the case with these late night specials that nothing really happens until the last couple of episodes, but it's been entertaining enough tonight and about time really that we had one - think it's been about three years since the last. I also think this week will be the making of Malachy - he was kind of given a big storyline too quickly in the main show for us to care about it, but his and Kris's relationship is turning into one of the most interesting in the show.

Well it was entertaining in parts but it all seemed a bit pointless really, could have just done a one hour special instead of all this padding. Or even putting it on half an hour a night like usual.

Nowhere near as good as Hollyoaks first late night special back in 2000.

Agree better titles tho.

I must have been the only person who enjoyed Later last night, good to see the characters swearing for good measure aswell. The best parts were between Kris and Malachy and the fact we found out about Kris' ex-girlfriend and that none of the family knew he was a bi.

Shall look foward to tonight's ep.

To be fair they kept the swearing to a relative minimum - apart from a "fan-****-tastic" from Josh I can't say anything else really stood out.

I like Spike - is he back as a regular character?

Not sure if he's back for more than a few episodes yet, bur can't really see how they could bring him in more permanently at the moment. He should have been bought in the first time around really - didn't really have the same impact this time IMO.

Anyway, natural justice strikes again on Hollyoaks Later. Has any serial killer ever survived in soap land?

what was the name of the song that they played at the beginning of tonights hollyoaks later?
