Hollyoaks	comment	Hollyoaks is a British soap that began in 1995, centered on the residents of Hollyoaks, a fictional area in Chester. The show is primarily aimed at young people, the cast being on average teenaged to mid-20s.Hollyoaks has always been something of a joke amongst critics and viewers: It was mocked for the practice of casting attractive yet unconvincing actors, as well as some of its more outlandish storylines, or feeble dialogue. However, recently Hollyoaks has shown a notable uptick in quality, producing several satisfying story arcs and interesting characters. It has even garnered critical attention in papers such as The Guardian, and at several award shows, and was praised for its portrayal of the gay relationship between John Paul and Craig.It's also notable for having the greatest dissonance between the happiness of the theme song and the utter misery that ensues once it finishes.Many viewers love Hollyoaks not despite its faults, but because of them. See So Bad, It's Good.Another amusing thing is that Channel 4 go down the "if you've been affected by the issues in the program call our hot-line" route. Given the plots of the series manning that hot-line must be the easiest job in the world. After all how many teenage-schoolgirls-being-blackmailed-by-their-birth-mother-into-stealing-their-own-baby-that-is-being-passed-off-as-your-sister's-child-over-the-fact-that-you-shot-the-baby's-father,-also-your-sister's-husband-at-their-wedding are there out there just waiting to phone in. They have been working against this though, attempting to tastefully deal with more serious matters and direct people to the appropriate charities for the equivalent problems that do exist in real life, such as the male rape storyline being created with advice from Survivors and Maxine and Patrick's domestic abuse storyline being added to with a series of awareness ads with the Home Office.It has tried to launch several spinoffs but the only one which saw success is the Darker and Edgier Hollyoaks Later, which had a yearly installment from 2008 to 2013, and a one-off special in 2020.

The fact that she kept on and on accusing him, even after he'd been found Not Guilty by a court of law, makes rather more sense now it's been revealed that he did rape her after all. Although by retconning the flashbacks, some viewers felt it was a clear Ass Pull to milk it for more drama.

Hollyoaks / int_154aa477	type	Big, Screwed-Up Family
Hollyoaks / int_154aa477	comment	Big, Screwed-Up Family: The McQueens are this trope. The Ashworths could also qualify. Suzanne ended up having twins with Darren, Hannah suffered from Anorexia, Rhys fell in love with his half sister and framed his little brother for drink driving, and Josh ended up with a ruined life because of what Rhys did to him. The Costellos also apply. Carl has cheated on his wife twice, once with his son's girlfriend Mercedes. Riley, also a famous footballer, almost got married to said girlfriend, who is possibly carrying his father's child. He then falls in love with his cousin Mitzeee, who is then framed for stabbing Mercedes. Riley finally finds out the truth and goes back to Mitzee, only to be accidentally shot by Walker. Seth was tricked into believing he murdered a prostitute and almost killed himself over it, and his twin Jason is a transgender man who was once his sister Jasmine. On top of that, the Costellos grandfather Silas is a serial killer who accidentally killed his daughter Heidi on Halloween in a case of mistaken identity. The male version of the McQueen family, the Roscoes, are quickly shaping up to be this as well. The Deveraux/Loveday family have major problems. The patriarch, Walter, is a man of god but incredibly judgemental, and homophobic. The first 'Lisa' isn't her at all, but an imposter; the real Lisa cheats on Nathan with his father, leading to Nathan's death. Louis has multiple affairs, and dates both sisters Simone and Martine. Felix sells two of his and Martine's children, and leaves Martine because Walter pushed him to. Mitchell was simultaneously a doctor and a stripper, and cheated on Cleo with Scott due to his repressed homosexuality. Toby and Celeste, due to their strange abusive upbringing, came to Hollyoaks seeking revenge on their biological family, and pretended to be a couple despite actually being siblings; Toby then eventually kills Lisa (his cousin) while attempting to kill Mitchell (his brother), and Celeste helps cover it up. When Mitchell discovers this, they force him to leave the country under threat of framing him for the murder.

She decides the best thing she can do is encourage Sami to be with Sinead, the girl he loves. However, it turns out that while Liberty might have been right about her role, she was wrong about the genre! Sami does go to Sinead for a big moment of them getting together, but Sinead angrily tells him this isn't some "soppy romcom", she's just had her abusive husband Laurie come back and try to attack her and then she saw him die, so romance is the last thing on her mind at the moment!

She does go through with the ceremony and marry Patrick, but exposes his actions and leaves him at the reception when he makes it clear that he will never change. Subverted during Tony's wedding to Diane O'Connor, where it looks like this trope is going to be pulled after she finds out about his affair with Sinead. Diane actually goes through with the ceremony so she'll be able to divorce him and take his money.

Hollyoaks / int_19ebe383	type	Never Trust a Trailer
Hollyoaks / int_19ebe383	comment	Never Trust a Trailer: The adverts for the huge fire at Il Gnosh in 2010 made out that a lot of people would end up dying. The only person to die was Steph, who chose to burn to death rather than die slowly of cancer. Actually, Mal died during the fire too, though not directly in it like Steph did. The injuries he sustained during the explosion that caused the fire, paired with his already vulnerable HIV-infected body, were what ultimately killed him. The 2012 Valentines trailer also counts; it implies Darren will have to choose between Nancy and Cindy. This never happens. The promo for "Enjoy The Ride" made it look like either Ste or Doug (or possibly both) would die in the accident, but neither of them do. Furthermore it wasn't exactly obvious that Jono would die, and Neil was never shown at all. This is the same promo that blatantly revealed that Rhys and Maddie would die. Similarly, the promo for the "End of the Line" train crash made it clear Carmel would die, but implied that so would John Paul; ultimately, nothing happens to him and he isn't even seriously injured. There was also no sign of Sonny, the only other person to die as a result of the crash. The trailer for the Hollyoaks Blast made it look like at least some of the McQueens would be victims of the explosion (justified, as they were Clare's intended victims), but in the show it was revealed that not only were none of them killed, they weren't even in the right building. The trailer for "Six Weeks of Summer" 2014 heavily plays up scenes of Ste threatening Finn, implying Ste will take revenge for Finn raping John Paul. In fact, all of these shots were taken from a single episode - at the beginning of the next episode, John Paul finds them and quickly intervenes, lying to protect Finn from Ste. Finn is actually exposed by Nancy several weeks later. Ads for the Silas Halloween storyline showed several of the show's female cast in identical Catwoman costumes (including his previous targets Lynsey Nolan and Theresa McQueen) and invited fans to guess which of them would be his victim. He actually killed his own daughter, Heidi, who was also wearing this costume and so he mistook her for Lynsey; Heidi was not shown in the ads. The death of Texas was advertised as though it was going to be a "Who Dunnit?" storyline, with potential suspects being shown. In the show, these characters were still suspects, but the actual killer; Will Savage, was revealed to the viewers only a few episodes after she died. Strangely, the promos continued to treated as though it was still a mystery. The 2014 autumn trailer featuring the "Hollyoaks Hospital Siege" made it look like there would be several deaths; either in the hostage incident, or Ziggy and Tegan who are trapped in a lift that plummets when the cable snaps. In fact they escaped with minor injuries and the only person to be killed in the hostage situation was Big Bob, the perpetrator, who was accidentally shot when Cameron tried to wrestle the gun away from him. During the 20th Anniversary week, the episodes ended with a trailer for the next episode. Once it had been implied that Kim was going to be the Gloved Hand Killer, the trailer for the final episode included a clip of a troubled Kim talking about how they (doctors) have life and death in their hands every day, clearly set up to make the viewer think that this will be the scene were Kim tries to justify murdering her victims, or explains why she did it. However, the scene in question is Kim talking about how she covered up the fact that a patient died at her sister Lindsey's hands, and (unknown to Kim during this scene, but not for long) it is actually Lindsey who is the Gloved Hand Killer.

Hollyoaks / int_1e584efa	comment	Cruel and Unusual Death: Poor Sarah Barnes dies after her parachute failed to open. She's screaming as she plummets to the ground, and the camera only pulls away at the last minute. Makes matters worse by the fact it was her ex-girlfriend Lydia who tampered with it, even if it wasn't intended for Sarah. The circle of blood on the cornfield at the end just says it all. Andy Holt ran into a sharpened pole after running away from Mel, who was getting her own back for all the rapes he had committed by giving him the same drug he'd given his victims. Alistair Longford, India and Texas' elderly grandfather, dies after falling off a mountain. Though given he was on holiday with his young wife Cindy at the time, it's unsure of whether he just 'fell'.. Tina McQueen dies in an explosion set off by her psychotic half brother Niall. Not only is she the lone member of the family to die, she was one of the two Myra reluctantly asked to be spared (Niall demanded she could only save two). Heidi Costello ends up strangled to death by her own father, Silas, in a case of mistaken identity. In the confusion of the bus-crash, Neil is assumed to have died but is later revealed to have been merely knocked unconscious. He wakes up as the bus has caught fire, begging Maddie to help him free himself, only for her to callously leave him... and then the bus explodes. Leading to some Laser-Guided Karma when the explosion causes one of the doors to come crashing down on Maddie's head, killing her instantly. Callum Kane gets a violent, bloody, painful and humiliating death when Jade sneaks up on him and impales him with a samurai sword.

They're only a year apart in age, Ruby just happens to be in school still, and Jono is in the first year of Sixth Form. Rhys Ashworth felt the same way after realising that Sarah Barnes wasn't as old he thought, and was actually two years younger than him. The situation was compounded by Sarah being one of the few people Rhys's younger sister Hannah had met & befriended after moving the local school Sinead O'Connor and Tony Hutchinson. When Sinead confides in Esther, Esther's main objection to the relationship is the age difference rather than the fact of Sinead being Tony's stepdaughter: "It's like you're Miley Cyrus and he's Gary Barlow! You'll be Miley Barlow!" Patrick Blake and Maxine Minniver (who is the same age as Patrick's daughter Sienna.) Also Patrick and 23-year-old Theresa.

Hollyoaks / int_23698fa8	type	Aborted Arc
Hollyoaks / int_23698fa8	comment	Aborted Arc: When Loretta first arrived in the show, a storyline was obviously being built up around her having a dark past; but it ultimately went nowhere, the producers having cut the storyline (which would have revealed that as a child Loretta had accidentally killed another girl) due to the mother of a real-life murder victim objecting. There were several Aborted Arcs in late 2010, starting with a storyline with a fire running through the village. Last minute changes were made to that when the story was starting onscreen! Many storylines were changed or dropped altogether, resulting in lots of refilmed stuff added into already filmed scenes and a huge editing mess for months afterwards, with the episode synopis in TV guides and EPGs bearing no resemblance to what was shown onscreen. But special mention has to go to the Sharpes and the Davenports - two whole aborted families! Many seemingly longterm storylines had been set up with them - Gabby Sharpe having an affair with Tony, Phil Sharpe having a secret other family (the Davenports), Amber getting pregnant - but it was decided to axe the Sharpes (and therefore the Davenports) altogether, along with all their storylines. It was announced in 2015 that Holly Cunningham would be part of a storyline to raise awareness of the danger of legal highs. Subsequent episodes showed her rebelling and casually using drugs - but this was abruptly dropped, she didn't suffer any serious consequences, and her main storyline instead became a love triangle with Robbie and Jason Roscoe.

Part of the reason for the high turnover is the show's focus on the local high school, college and university, meaning there is a constant influx new younger cast members to replace older characters whose stories have run their course whilst conversely, there are characters like Tony Hutchinson or the McQueen family with such longevity specifically because they aren't tied to the village through the college.

Hollyoaks / int_2fef0c01	comment	Twisted Christmas: Well, it is Hollyoaks, after all. Christmas 2004: Dan Hunter gets out of jail after being framed for the serial murders committed by his brother-in-law. He reunites with his lost love, gives her what turned out to be an engagement ring - then gets blown up in a rally car accident moments later. 2008: Louise is murdered by Warren on their wedding day after he discovered her plans to shoot him dead because he'd murdered her previous husband. 2009: An episode aired at Christmas was set six months into the future, revealing that Calvin Valentine is murdered on HIS wedding day in May 2010 as he renews his vows to Carmel. Back in the present day, Zoe is knifed by Lydia on New Year's Eve after Lydia admits to being responsible for Sarah's death. The show had planned a Christmas storyline which would reveal that two characters had killed a child and were now living under police protection with new identities, but producers announced the plot had been axed due to outcry over the similarities with the real life case of James Bulger. 2014: Having found out that Sinead's baby cannot possibly be his because he is infertile, Tony exposes her cheating and humiliates her at a Christmas dinner with friends. Meanwhile, Sienna is holding Dodger prisoner in a basement after kidnapping him so they could have a "perfect family Christmas". At Ste and John Paul's wedding reception, Sinead publicly announces that Ste is the father of her baby, putting the marriage in serious jeopardy before it's begun. She then runs out crying into the snow and is hit by Sienna's car. Later at New Year, Joe Roscoe finds out that Lindsey and Freddie have been having an affair behind his back for months, and throws them both out. He later ends up punching Rick during an argument. Rick is taken to hospital where he is found not to be seriously injured - then he falls victim to a serial killer within the hospital. 2015: Reenie McQueen goes back to jail, leaving behind her daughters, one of whom will now have to testify in court against her abuser alone. Simone Loveday is forced to tell her children that she has lost the baby she was carrying. John Paul tries for a reconciliation with his ex-husband but is rejected in favour of Harry. Cameron Campbell tries to blow up his ex Leela in her new house, and when his brother Lockie threatens to report him, Cameron kidnaps Lockie. Meanwhile Lockie's estranged wife Porsche leaves town heartbroken when he fails to meet her as he promised. Leela finally gives her husband Ziggy her blessing to be with her sister - but then he dies from injuries he sustained in the explosion.

Hollyoaks / int_329a19a0	comment	Hollywood Healing: Darren not only came home from hospital the very next day after being shot in the stomach, but there was no mention of bedrest or even any form of pain relief. The exact same thing happened when Freddie Roscoe was shot in the stomach. Amy Barnes also recovered overnight after being in a car accident that left her unconscious. She was also pregnant at the time. Nicely averted with Hannah's friend Melissa, who was a long suffering anorexia sufferer. She didn't get better. The Costello family are massive culprits of this. To date Jason was hit by a car, Seth overdosed on steroids, and Heidi burned herself with scalding hot water, and they were all home within a couple of days. Brendan is severely injured - almost to the brink of death - after being caught in an explosion at the end of the fifth series of Hollyoaks Later. Within two weeks time, he goes from completely bedridden, to resting at home in a wheelchair, to crutches (only for one episode), to a walking cane, and then finally walking just fine on his own. Peri Lomax starts to feel ill one day, falls heavily down a long flight of metal stairs, and when taken to hospital is diagnosed with a brain tumour. She has emergency surgery and is almost instantly back on her feet, without losing a single lock of her long hair or suffering any visible injuries. Dodger is stabbed and nearly bleeds to death because the wound was close to an artery in his leg. He flatlines and has to be resuscitated ... but within a couple of days is out of hospital and walking around like nothing happened. Averted when Nico Blake spends over a month in hospital after a kidney transplant and develops complications.

After being told Rae was a figment of his imagination, it was a shock for poor Newt when he met the real Rae, who was very different from how he had imagined.

Hollyoaks / int_4548bae	comment	Teen Pregnancy: Amy Barnes (Twice) and Cindy Cunningham. Also Theresa McQueen. 12 year old Amber Sharpe. Sadly, Truth in Television, these days, proving this is a Justified Trope. While not shown on screen, Myra McQueen had four children while still in her teens: she gave birth to Niall at age fourteen, Jacqui at fifteen, Mercedes at sixteen, and Tina at nineteen. Sienna Blake and Leela Lomax both gave birth at age 14, initially leading Sienna to believe that Peri Lomax is her own missing daughter Sophie. Peri herself later gets pregnant at 14 too. Esther is introduced as Frankie's granddaughter on the premise that Frankie had another son she didn't know about; she had got pregnant as a teenager but, because of the mores of the day, her parents had the baby adopted and told Frankie he had died. Esther becomes a borderline example when she gets pregnant as part of a surrogacy agreement with Trevor and Grace: she's 19 (making her a legal adult in the UK) and has already finished school, but it's pointed out to her repeatedly that she is very young to be a surrogate mother, and most of her friends and family seem to believe that she isn't mature enough to go through with it. Sinead became pregnant with Rhys' child when she was in her mid teens. Nico has a teenage pregnancy when she returns to the village after being thought dead; she refused to reveal the father's identity.

Hollyoaks / int_4864031b	comment	Bronagh Waugh, avoids being in lads mags, perhaps due to lads' magazine editors' opinions on her looks. Same for Victoria Atkin, who plays Jason Costello. You won't see any of the onscreen mothers (With the exception of the likes of Cindy Cunningham and other younger mothers) doing them either. Chloe Bruce was another exception, though she did feature in at least one of the show's calendars, albeit fully clothed in contrast to the rest of the girls who posed in bikinis or swimwear. Her actress even wrote a book called The Fat Girl From Hollyoaks.

Initially done with John Paul and Nancy when she found out that John Paul had failed to report Finn O'Connor for raping him, leaving Finn free to attempt to rape Nancy the night before her wedding. She decided she could not continue their friendship in the knowledge that John Paul could have prevented what happened to her. However, the trope was averted when they later repaired their friendship. Lindsey's close friendship with Mercedes turned to contempt after Lindsey learned that Mercedes had teamed up with Grace to fake Mercedes' death and frame Freddie for her "murder" (in revenge for him killing Fraser Black.) They became friends again ... only for Lindsey, post-Jumping Off the Slippery Slope and becoming the Gloved Hand Killer, to try to kill Mercedes in a bid to get Joe back.

Unfortunately played straight (pun not intended) with Ste Hay & Craig Dean, who had been played as entirely heterosexual until the point they accepted their feelings for their respective partners, at which point the show and characters began immediately identifying them as gay. Despite having many previous relationships with the opposite gender, at no point was the question of whether they were bisexual or not even addressed. Doug Carter, who came as much as a surprise for the various characters as the audience, especially when his deep love for Bex played such a significant part of the character's background, downfall, and subsequent redemption. Danny is revealed to be bisexual, contrasting with the other instances where men who went from a relationship with a woman to one with a man were retconned into being gay, although he tries to stay with Sam after John Paul rejects him. After several relationships with men, Sarah falls for Zoe and initially believes she may be bisexual, but later identifies as (and is accepted as) a lesbian. Played straight with Harry's storyline; despite going out with Cleo, kissing John Paul and eventually having a relationship with Ste, him being bi is never considered.

Hollyoaks / int_59907e4f	comment	Police Are Useless: And how! Rule of thumb seems to be that the only time they show competency in finding evidence is when it's against the wrong person. Or in the case of Zoe Carpenter's arrest for murdering Sarah Barnes, not even dusting said evidence for prints, which would've saved roughly 3 months of story by letting them arrest the real murderer. Best shown when Will is charged with Lyndsey's murder, since Silas claims to have no idea about Will's alibi, that he was merely writing a book on him to save his family from debt. Because God-forbid that information provided by a known Serial Killer who likes to screw with people, could potentially be a lie. Wouldn't even a simple medical examination prove that Mercedes' knife-wound was clearly self-inflicted? When Mitzeee is being sent down for supposedly trying to murder Mercedes, where the hell was her lawyer? Ethan was once the king of this trope. To cover up for having imprisoned Sienna in a boiler room for over a week, Patrick lies that Sienna has been sent to a secure mental health unit. Sienna escapes but Tom, who knows that Patrick locked her in the room, reports it to the police. Patrick repeats his excuse and they accept it, without bothering to check, or wanting to escort Sienna back to the unit, or even asking the name of the place where she was supposedly being treated. DC Thorpe seems to have been introduced for the sole purpose of this trope. He misses obvious clues, frequently arrests the wrong person, and threatens witnesses (which risks evidence being rendered inadmissible.) DS Cohen appears to be an exception to this rule. She's not perfect, she doesn't always make the right call, but she's at least fairly competent and hasn't shown herself to be corrupt so far.

John Paul is subjected to months of vicious bullying from Finn O'Connor and Robbie Roscoe, then raped by Finn. John Paul's mental health worsens and he becomes alienated from his friends and family, but the boys continue to bully him until he snaps and violently attacks Robbie in class; causing John Paul to be fired from his job and charged with assault. Robbie (who's now found out what Finn did) writes a statement absolving John Paul, but Finn switches it with a falsified statement that leads to John Paul getting six months in jail. On his release he struggles to find a job, is ostracised by others in town, and his new romance with Ste suffers due to John Paul's fear of intimacy. Meanwhile, he's targeted by Trevor Royle and dangerous gangster Big Bob with whom John Paul got mixed up in jail - and Finn continues to torment him. Led to a large number of viewers complaining that the storyline had lost any realism it originally purported to have, and was being continued solely to pile as much misery onto John Paul as possible.

Hollyoaks / int_7426107	comment	invoked The Cast Showoff: Abi Phillips was asked to join the cast after penning a song called 'Missing You' for her favourite character, Steph. It was used during her final scene. As an amazing singer, her character Liberty gets the opportunity to sing in show. Unfortunately it's clear that the Hollyoaks bosses only hired her for her singing. Liberty was re-cast in 2018 with professional West End singer Jessamy Stoddart and, accordingly, still gets plenty of chances to sing. Steph herself was played by Carley Stenson, who also sung on the show, notably at her husband Max's funeral. Carley Stenseon would go on to a West End career after leaving the show. invoked Summer Shaw, played by (and named after) West End star Summer Strallen. To promote Strallen taking over in the lead role of Maria in Andrew Lloyd Webber's adaptation of The Sound of Music, the character was written into the show for a storyline where she successfully auditions for Lloyd-Webber and is cast as Maria. Accordingly, she got plenty of opportunities to show off her talents. Lisa Loveday and Martine Deveraux sing Amazing Grace in a Hollyoaks Later episode. They were played by Rachel Adedeiji and Kelle Bryan respectively, who are both professional singers.

When George's actor quit in 2014, the show's official sites acknowledged his departure as the end of their reign over the show (even though all but Sinead and Esther had died or left by this time.)

Mercedes herself has had a role in these sort of love triangles, with her being the Veronica to Mitzeee's Betty when they were both rivals for Riley's affections. Sometimes it's even switched back and forth over which one is the "Betty" and which is the "Veronica", for example Harry was often seeing Ste and James at the same time, but sometimes Ste was the "Veronica" (due to his often chaotic life) and sometimes he was the "Betty" (due to his attempts to reform), while sometimes James was the "Betty" (because he is a lawyer with a good career), and sometimes he was the "Veronica" (due to him undeniably having a dark side).

For example, Victor arrives not long after Glenn and Liam Donovan have both died, and just before Victor is arrested for his many crimes, Fergus Collins is introduced. And after Fergus goes we get Norma 'The Undertaker' Crow. Only a few months after evil Dr. Edward Hutchinson died, Dee Valley Hospital saw the arrival of evil Dr. Ali Shahzad.

When Carmel and Jim plan to run away together because Jim's life is in danger from Fraser Black, Carmel arrives at the station to find that Jim has been fatally stabbed. He then dies in her arms.

Hollyoaks / int_a70223	type	Karma Houdini
Hollyoaks / int_a70223	comment	Karma Houdini: So many of the characters. Warren Fox, who's gleefully murdered several characters and gotten away with it, been involved in blackmail, supplying drugs, still somehow manages to woo half the women in the Village despite being an obvious sociopath, and even being tied up in a burning building that supposedly kills, merely slowed him down. He goes one step further by making Seth think that he had murdered a prostitute, which made him try to commit suicide. All to get a single piece of information out of him. Rhys Ashworth definitely qualifies. He and his younger brother are Josh are competing for the affections of a girl, so Rhys spikes Josh's drink, who is later arrested for getting involved in a collision with another car and injuring the people in it. Even his brother getting beaten up by various people and becoming a pariah, going to trial and getting nearly sent down, doesn't let Rhys admit the truth. It takes 6 months later when Josh has finished probation and has returned and their parents nearly splitting up from the pressure, before he finally fesses up... and is immediately forgiven for everything. Ste. For some reason, his later storyline where Brendan seduces him, then beats him regularly, is supposed to make us feel sorry for him. Even though he himself was frequently domestically abusive to Amy, lied that her daughter had cancer to get money from everyone and has been known to be a drug dealer. Theresa McQueen. After the truth comes out that not only did she sleep with Calvin, got pregnant, then shot him on his wedding day to Carmel, she is forgiven. Instead Carmel blames her sister Jacqui and throws her out of the house for covering it up and gladly lets Theresa stay under the same roof, helping look after the baby. Gaz. He bullied Anita because of the colour of her skin and threw paint over her and filmed it on his mobile to send around the school. He and Lauren drove her to the point of bleaching her skin so she could look like everyone else. He then continued to threaten her, along with chasing her into the woods to potentially hurt her more seriously. And now he's back and apparently forgiven since Anita has left. Of the very worst (and arguably tasteless kind) it has emerged that Silas won't be tried let alone imprisoned for the murders he committed, merely institutionalised after being deemed clinically insane by the authorities. Hollyoaks has a very nasty habit of letting people get away with their 'crimes' for far too long, and then when they are exposed, their punishment really isn't ever enough. Josh is treated like crap due to Rhys for absolute ages, yet he's forgiven in the course of a single episode and it's forgotten. Mercedes practically defines this trope. Ruby Button tormented Esther for ages, to the point of Esther attempting to commit suicide. She even turned Esther's family against her, and she was forgiven completely because she suddenly 'felt bad about it' and her only punishment was to be suspended from school, and even then she was treated like a martyr about it. Finn O'Connor. He viciously bullies his teacher John Paul, eventually rapes John Paul, and isn't caught because John Paul was too ashamed to press charges or name the culprit. John Paul lies to protect Finn from Ste (who guesses the truth) and Robbie, the only other person who knows, is silenced by Finn blackmailing him. Meanwhile, Finn also violently beat Blessing and put her in hospital, filming the attack on his phone; but escapes punishment when Diane deletes the footage rather than make him face the consequences. Along with Mercedes, Cindy and Lindsey got away with Browning's murder when police officer Sam agreed to cover for them as she felt their actions were justified. Patrick gets away with abusing Maxine all throughout their relationship. Even when her dress is torn at their wedding reception, exposing her bruises, Patrick lies that Maxine caused the injuries herself. Karma Houdini Warranty: While never suffering direct repercussions however, karma seems to have slowly caught up on him, earning a beating from Dodger, run over and nearly killed by Sienna, being diagnosed with fatal Motor Neurone Disease, and eventually murdered by his granddaughter Nico.

Hollyoaks / int_a939d96a	comment	Adults Are Useless: All of them! Special mention goes to all of the adults involved in Esther's bullying storyline. You have her grandparents, who aren't suspicious in the slightest that their once-well-behaved grandchild has been acting out lately, and who choose to believe a girl who is a known liar over her. You have the headteacher who suggests Esther bought the bullying on herself, and refuses to take her side. You have Diane, a woman who is supposed to be telling the students how to spot bullying. She instead spends the entire class picking on Esther, who hasn't done anything to warrant it. And then you have Jen, who spots a clearly drunk and upset underage Esther out in the middle of the night, and then does nothing in favour of hooking up with her similarly underage girlfriend. Special mention has to go to Frankie, whose long history of complete and utter obliviousness makes someone like Carmel look like Sherlock Holmes in comparison. During the county lines drugs storyline, the parents all prove quite useless. Leela, Darren, Nancy and Mandy don't notice that their respective kids are involved in drugs until the incident at New Year's. For Nancy, this is discussed in-universe, but she justifies it as she's still grieving Kyle and has several other people to look after. James and Marnie at least notice Juliet is involved and try to help, but neither actually achieves anything.

Chloe Bruce was another exception, though she did feature in at least one of the show's calendars, albeit fully clothed in contrast to the rest of the girls who posed in bikinis or swimwear. Her actress even wrote a book called The Fat Girl From Hollyoaks. Ruby Button operates on fanservice. It helps that she is played by the curvy Anna Shaffer. In the show's early days, Kurt Benson, Jambo Bolton, Lewis Richardson and Rob Hawthorn were particularly known for this trope.

During Peri and Nico's joint birthday party, Peri's baby scan is accidentally found. Since Peri doesn't want anyone to know, Nico covers by claiming it's her own baby scan. Tegan (who is a single mother, had a baby with a convicted criminal old enough to be her father, and whose sister gave birth when younger than Nico) promptly lambastes Nico for being a "skank" and irresponsible single mother.

Hollyoaks / int_b2279346	comment	Retcon: Michaela was initially introduced as Michaela Jones and lived alone with her grandmother. This was later changed to make her part of the large McQueen family. Darren Osborne was supposed to be the son of Jack's ex-wife Celia, but a storyline retconned this so that Jack had an affair with Sandy Roscoe, who is secretly Darren's real mother. Clare Devine's backstory established that she acted the way she did because of bitterness at her father, who neglected and abandoned her. However, her father Fraser and sister Grace were later introduced to the show, with the premise that Clare was always Fraser's favourite child while Grace was the black sheep. Becca Dean was introduced before the rest of her family, and her profile on the official Hollyoaks website claimed that she lived with her parents John and Andrea, and sister Zoe. When these characters arrived on the show, their names had been changed to Charles, Margaret, and Nancy. Dodger Savage was introduced as Dirk's son but, with the arrival of Patrick and Sienna Blake, a number of retcons happened: Dodger was really Patrick's son (since Patrick's ex-wife got custody of Dodger, and went on to marry Dirk) and Sienna's twin brother. During this storyline, a scene showed Dodger's birth certificate giving his date of birth as 1990, making him and Sienna 24 years old - which later led to another retcon where Dodger and Sienna were aged up to 28 so that Sienna could have a 14-year-old daughter (mistaking Peri Lomax for Sienna's long-lost child.) It was initially established that Carmel, John Paul and Michaela McQueen's father was Myra's ex Ricky; but later retconned that John Paul's father was Sally St Claire, with whom Myra had had an affair prior to Sally coming out as a trans woman. During the storyline about Pete Buchanan's sexual abuse of Cleo McQueen, Cleo had her 18th birthday, meaning that she was now a legal adult and raising the question of whether Pete was committing any criminal offence by continuing to have sex with her. Later, when he was finally convicted and sent to jail, Cleo turned 18 again right after the trial. Tony and Diane's twins were born in Brighton, yet a year and a half later this was retconned to them being born in Dee Valley Hospital where Diane's baby daughter was accidentally Switched at Birth with Tegan Lomax's.

Hollyoaks / int_b901ef97	comment	Forgotten Fallen Friend: While this is common in most soaps, Hollyoaks takes this into overdrive as even if they were a very close friend/partner/lover and died tragically, nobody often seems to actually remember them at all! Averted with Nancy who often mentions her sister Becca, while Chez took the death of Lyns very hard. Averted with Jono and Maddie, who are frequently referred to by Ruby and Sinead during their bullying of Esther. Played straight in that they seem to forget Neil, who arguably had the worst death of the lot! Mercedes is terrible for this. Two of her past husbands have died, one of her past lovers has also died, and she never seems to care one bit about them. It's surprisingly anyone is willing to hook up with her, given her track record. After Jim is suddenly murdered, Carmel tells Sonny that she can't be with him out of respect for both Jim and Calvin (with Sonny agreeing that his own brother's widow should be off-limits.) Just a couple of weeks later they are engaged and neither Calvin nor Jim is ever mentioned again. It's horrific how quickly Leela, Tegan and Peri get over their parents dying in a brutal car accident. This was a plot point for when Lisa Hunter was emotionally hurt over the fact that no one seemed to remember her late brother Dan's birthday. This leads to her reminding everyone of him, and stating that he doesn't seem to matter now he's dead. When Robbie Roscoe's fiancÃ©e Phoebe was murdered, he gave a touching speech at her funeral about how she was the love of his life. Just hours later he slept with Nancy and within a day was in a relationship with her, Phoebe forgotten. Even Jason said it was "time Robbie found a new girlfriend" - only a month after Phoebe's death.

Hollyoaks / int_c33ba0a8	comment	Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: This is fairly common for Hollyoaks. A character will receive a lot of focus for a week or so, then suddenly disappear while other storylines take over, with little to no explanation. Every so often a character will disappear from the show with no explanation, just a press announcement that the actor has left. A notable example of this trope is Ricky Campbell. When the actor quit, it was decided his exit storyline would involve him leaving town after performing badly in his exams. Preview pictures were released in TV magazines and online, and the cast spoke about Ricky's departure in press interviews ... but then the scenes involving his departure were cut, so he simply vanished from the show without a trace.

Hollyoaks / int_eb5b71fe	comment	Clingy Jealous Girl: Surprisingly, Ruby Button has had shades of this towards Sinead O'Connor. She gets spiteful when Sinead and Esther are having fun together, and gets the latter into trouble over something that Ruby herself made her do. Sinead herself became this towards Bart and his friendship with Jason. Leanne takes this to the extreme. Lee is perhaps a male version of this towards Amy. Sienna. She successfully got Darren's former wife sectioned through her lies, tried to turn him against his own family just so she could have him all to herself, kidnapped his children, faked a pregnancy, and induced him to have an angina attack. Later, she develops a fixation with her brother Dodger and tries to separate him from Maxine; including putting Maxine in danger from Patrick, and lying that Nico has a brain tumour so that Dodger won't leave the village. She's a more unstable example of the trope, as she clearly has something wrong with her. Kim Butterfield, so obsessed with Grace that she deliberately got herself sent to prison so they could be together.

When George's actor quit in 2014, the show's official sites acknowledged his departure as the end of their reign over the show (even though all but Sinead and Esther had died or left by this time.)

Back in the present day, Zoe is knifed by Lydia on New Year's Eve after Lydia admits to being responsible for Sarah's death. The show had planned a Christmas storyline which would reveal that two characters had killed a child and were now living under police protection with new identities, but producers announced the plot had been axed due to outcry over the similarities with the real life case of James Bulger.

This was soon revealed to be storyline related, as it lead to Dr Browning's Sanity Slippage as he became convinced that Lynsey (who he had murdered) was haunting him. Played with in Porsche McQueen, whose name suggests her to be this for Mercedes. Porsche is not much like Mercedes personality-wise, but often compared to her by other characters, and they are so close in appearance that Porsche can successfully pose as Mercedes when the family investigates Mercedes's disappearance and presumed murder.

Hollyoaks / int_f96f8980	type	Love Makes You Crazy
Hollyoaks / int_f96f8980	comment	Love Makes You Crazy: Jake Dean. Also Lydia Hart, who ended up killing Sarah Barnes. Lydia's obsession with her spiralled out of control when she realised she and Zoe had a spark between them still, even if the latter didn't want to follow it through, and an attempt to kill Zoe by tampering with her parachute, led to her actually killing Sarah when their parachutes were mixed up. Mercedes stalks Mitzeee and stabs herself so she can frame Mitzeee for attempted murder, all because she wants to get back together with Riley. In fairness in this case it was implied that it was her not dealing with long running problems after a series of traumatic events that caused Mercedes to lose her grip and her wanting to get back with Riley was just the last straw, but still. Sienna is so desperate to be with Darren that she fakes a friendship with his wife, Nancy, and then proceeds to lie her way to getting Nancy sectioned for being 'crazy'. She then went on to fake a pregnancy to keep Darren with her, and is going about cutting his family out of his life so that she can have him all to herself. Amongst other things, she attempted to breast feed Oscar, who is Nancy's son. Sienna's attention then turns to her own twin brother Dodger. She has a scrapbook filled with badly doctored photographs of them together, she lies about Nico having cancer just so Dodger won't move away with Maxine, and then stabs Dodger in the leg with a knife when he turns up looking for Maxine, who Sienna has just manipulated into leaving the village by pretending to be Dodger via text. Kim's obsession with Grace, keeping a detailed diary of every interaction she's ever had with Grace, and even deliberately getting sent to prison so they can be together. It's also revealed that she stalked Joe when he was engaged to Lindsey.

Joe went through a similar storyline, and even pretended to be a corpse in one episode. Ironically, this was one of his last major storylines before his actual death in a fire. Myra McQueen. When she returns to the village, Frankie publicly confronts her in the pub and asks what Myra has to say for herself, to which Myra responds "thanks for the cracking funeral!" Mercedes faked her own death in conjunction with Grace Black, in order to frame Freddie for killing Mercedes. He actually managed to get Grace arrested on suspicion of murder, so Trevor forced Mercedes to come back. Sid was put on witness protection after being stabbed by Victor. He survived the stabbing and police thought it would be best if they pretended he had died until they could build a stronger case against Victor.

However this was then unfortunately played straight when her scar quickly faded away to a tiny mark, and then was removed completely by cosmetic surgery. In a similar storyline to Carmel's, Darlene sustains facial scars after her stepbrother Justin pushes her through a window, but they fade quickly and are later removed via plastic surgery.
