Anyone notice at the end of tonights episode (E4) it said a lime pictures production? So are Mersey TV not making it now then?

I've just watched the one that was on at 02:10 this morning on E4, which stated it was a new episode, so assumed it was the same one as on at 21:00. But this is the endcap:

EDIT:
Just realised you weren't talking about "Hollyoaks-In The City", you are correct, the endcap for Hollyoaks is now as follows:

I don't mean to come across as a plonker here, but did "All3Media" form from 3 individuals, or 3 seperate companies? Or just a name.

It did indeed originate from 3 companies: MBI, Bridgepoint and Chrysalis TV in 2004. But if that was the reason for the name it seems a bit pointless now since they have bought so many other companies.

Oh right i see, just something that had been on my mind (pointlessly) but on my mind nevertheless. Laughing

Thank anyhow.

If they have axed In the City it is a shame really as it does have potential to be a returning series.


I doubt then it'll be another Hollyoaks spin-off next year (replacing Let Loose made sense, replacing In the City doesn't really) - but I suspect E4 will commission an original drama in the slot instead.

E4's ratings have also virtually doubled compared to a few months ago, regularly over 500,000 - and even upto 700,000 on occassions.

Anyone have the ratings for the T4 omnibus?

I doubt it,,unless they are really huge fans or its been a particuarly good episode. I often watch Corrie's episodes a 2nd time but not Hollyoaks.

I doubt there will be any more spin off as they havent really worked. In the City might have stood a chance if it hadnt been a Hollyoaks spin off and if Ben and Lisa werent in it.

Run up to Christmas spoiler (18th - 22nd)


- A surprise witness takes a stand at Becca's trial and her hope begins to fade
- John Paul and Hannah get it on, but John Paul later admits he felt pressured
- Dom is curious as to how Max's recovery is coming along
- The day of the verdict, but Justin is torn weather to attend court to hear the verdict.
- O.B is shocked by the state of Max
- Michaela's dad tries to wangle an invite to the McQueens Xmas dinner
- The pressure mounts for Clare as Max makes a bid for freedom
- McQueens prepare for their annual family knees up, but Michaela feels guilty as they all face a rather bare xmas.


Now there was no details posted for C4Sales site for Christmas day. Does anyone know if there is one this year. I heard rumours of a 90min special.

Usually over Christmas they produce five weekly half hour episodes as usual, but C4 show them as one "omnibus" style episode.

Last year though - for the first time ever I think - they were shown as daily episodes. I imagine this year they just won't bother on Christmas Day and probably show a one-hour double bill on Boxing Day, then continue as normal.

Also last year (or was it the year before) they had a special episode in the run up to Christmas spoofing A Christmas Carol, with Tony as Scrooge and Jambo returning as the ghosts of past, present and future.

I remember that. It was a good episode.

I agree, I think this year it will be a double episode on Boxing Day followed by a single episode every other weeknight. It helped a few years ago when it was only on 3 nights a week as they could do a 90 minute omnibus style episode, but 2 1/2 hours would be a bit too long.
