I wonder why E4 arent showing the full 1 hour episode in First Look on Thursday night?


possibly due to the fact it would give the game away as to who lives and who doesn't!!!!!! Surprised

They are effectively missing two episodes - on Thursday they are effectively showing one episode of C4's double bill on Friday, and then on Friday no first look episode is scheduled.

Back to normal on Monday though!


It is a shame though and the first time I think they've done it - certainly throughout all the stuff with Macki and Ali and the subsequent Justin trial it was all on E4 as usual!


I suspect the E4 announcer will make a pissed off type announcement about it on Thursday!

But it doesnt make any sense. They dont normally bother about whether they give the game away in storylines!

If they are riding on the publicity that "Hollyoaks will never be the same again" do they really want to spoil the impact of what is going to supposedly happen and thus make it a damp squib on Monday for NEW Hollyoaks!

As for the McQueen's - I think there is one more sister yet - she's currently "away".


Just how many sisters does the McQueen family have? I thought we had already met all 4 of them!

Tonights E4 episode was good - I wont give away what happened for those who havent seen it though.

There are five in total, the other one is in prison but should feature on screen soon as I've seen her in photoshoots with the others.


Monday is looking good for a whole scale revamp then!

It seems the obvious date to do it, especially as the new characters have already been introduced, but then again with Hollyoaks I think we've learned that revamped normally come a few months later than you expect them!

So far, so bloody brilliant!

How cruel to make us E4 viewers wait an extra 23 hours!

I noticed the different to usual ending on E4 tonight. And then the announcer said no first look Hollyoaks tommorow.

They do the odd one with a different theme - the announcer/ ECP spoiled it a bit, but I guess it was important to get the message across that the story continued on C4.

I wonder whether they'll air the credits at the end of the first half tomorrow or just run through as an hour-long episode.

I think they will as it looks like it is 2 episodes rather than 1 hour long episode.

Well Channel 4 did show the credits at the end of the first episode with the announcer telling is no need to turn to E4!

They're doing a good job of building the drama, with no theme tune on the credits and no music whatsoever on the break stings.

Did I see five body bags at the beginning, or six? I have to admit I've only been watching Hollyoaks for long enough to just about know who people are, but I'm sure I'll be hooked after tonight. =D
