Hollyoaks - Weekdays 6.30pm C4, 7pm E4

So true - unfortunately!


Brilliant episode tonight - again the McQueen's proving they are the best addition to the show in years.

In terms of the Hollyoaks Village, where is the McQueens house based? Could they not move into those flats where Tony, Valentines, Jake live?

I hate the new opening titles - they are dreadful. They need some decent opening titles.

Although they have more on the "set" now than in the past, traditionally Hollyoaks hasn't just been set on one street or estate - usually the characters live in houses dotted around the village.

A few like the Barnes and the Burtons before them were moved into the centre of the village when other families left.

I think also unlike some other houses the McQueen's house is actually a set - there is no outside to it.


Alot of the time with families like the McQueen's they never actually move into the village - they just begin to feature in the show and we're supposed to believe they've lived their for years - just never left the house and socialised with the rest of the cast I suppose!

Ah right i see. I think it suits well when you have a large family like McQueens who live in a house not in the main village area.

Tonights episode was really good, Amy is quite a good actress - i thought she was rubbish last year, but has grown over months.

The McQueen's are brilliant aren't they? I absolutely love them.

Sharon Marshall said that they are putting a little package together of Hollyoaks, for i think tomorrow or Wednesday, as This Morning are doing a soap week.

Its nice to see that Hollyoaks have been included, they said they have had a number of questions about Hollyoaks - which is good!

Yes, it certainly seems to be getting more attention. Maybe we'll have a couple of surprise wins at the BSA's.

Yeah hopefully, i think its two main factors

- JP&Craig storyline
-McQueens

Especially over at DS Forums, some of the most popular threads are bout Hollyoaks, the newspapers doing spreads on the McQueen clang, i just hope that it gets the recognistion it deserves!

Hollyoaks getting it's once a year outing then on the likes of This Morning!


I don't particularly care if it wins anything at the British Soap Awards - frankly it's better than that and I'm sure the production team would take the quiet praise it's been getting over the last year or so over any British Soap Award anyday!


Back to the McQueens though - brilliant tonight - with Myra stealing the show once again.

We all know the route the JP storyline is going, but I'd much rather they keep Spike as his boyfriend - tonight showed he could fit into the family very well indeed.

The sooner Craig is packed off to University, the better!



Also, great stuff from Josh and Amy tonight too!

WOW - to the clip that was shown on This Morning.

I see the acting hasn't improved.
