We are back from our hiatus and we’re caught up with the current episodes airing in the UK! We cover a lot of ground from when we on hiatus including the Unconscious Bias episode, PC Kiss’s fake and real deaths, and the ongoing Summer/Sienna saga!

We also have 5 weeks worth of Stars of the Week, because we had to acknowledge all the incredible performances during our time away. Find out if your faves got the gold or the snub.

Grab a snack, a bev, maybe a cuppa, and enjoy this mega episode! 

It was an absolute banner week in the village this week! If you haven’t been watching, it’s time to tune in. Cleo (Nadine Mulkerrin) confronts her abuser Pete (Kai Owen) in a tense showdown. Toby (Bobby Gordon) supports Cleo, but does he take things too far? Meanwhile, Luke (Gary Lucy) tries desperately to help Ollie (Gabriel Clark) kick his drug habit while the mental toll of dealing with Luke, Ollie, and Mandy (Sarah Jayne Dunn) starts to weigh on Cindy (Stephanie Waring). There was a ton of heavy material and the cast really rose to the challenge... making it all the more challenging for the Blokes to select a Star of the Week!

There was also some lighter stuff from some of our favorites including Sienna (Anna Passey), Sally (Annie Wallace), Shaq (Omar Malik), James (Gregory Finnegan), and Trish (Denise Welch). You know we’ll break it all down for you and give you our takes! Plus, we have a special announcement about the future of the podcast that you won’t want to miss! 

The Great Hollyoaks Laptop Heist is a major bust, leaving Felix, Warren, and Brad looking for a scapegoat. Meanwhile, Trish’s dance school opening is a major flop, will Trish take the blame herself or use Maxine or Leah as her scapegoat? Neglected and dejected, Romeo and Mercedes have a shag... and Cher the Troll doesn’t understand how to use the word “scapegoat.” 

We break it down this week and we reveal the stories we’d like to retcon! Plus, who will we crown the lauded Hollyblokes Star of the Week? Owen Warner (Romeo)? Richard Blackwood (Felix)? Ki Griffin (Ripley)? Elá-May Melek Demircan (Leah)? 

Sienna and Summer’s rivalry takes an unexpected turn when Summer kisses Sienna! Meanwhile, P.C. George Kiss is increasingly bothered by John Paul’s devotion to Nancy and her son Charlie and he continues to abuse John Paul both mentally and physically. Brad oversteps with Felix by trying to recruit his son Toby into the laptop heist, causing Felix to drop out altogether and leaving Brad with only Warren to assist him. Warren, who is being framed for Sienna’s shooting by Summer, may not be up for the task.

An eventful week and Greg and Pat agree one character stole the show! Listen now to find out who that is and to learn what’s behind that sound from the other room. Hint: it isn’t foxes!

It was a nice day for a COVID wedding, with restrictions made easier because nobody wanted to attend. Mandy and Darren took the plunge anyway and embarked on what may turn out to be the shortest marriage in Hollyoaks history. County Lines drama hit a climax after Ollie and Ste devised a truly ludicrous plan. Liberty did some sleuthing for Sienna and took a Mum 101 crash course from Diane and Courtney.

All this and more! So much more! Dancy kisses! Jeri kisses! An overdue bitch-slap! And a return from the grave! Let us walk you through a truly epic week in the village! 

Sami and Verity begin to implode after a new arrival spills Verity’s secret. Cher will stop at nothing to take down step-mum Mercedes, even posting a sex video online of Mercedes... with her dad? And Mandy is determined to have her happily ever after with Darren and Ella and takes some extreme measures against Nancy and Charlie to get what she wants.

Pat and Greg have loads to discuss including breaking down the New Spring Trailer at the end of the episode. You don’t wanna miss it! 

We're Here! We're Queer! We're recapping Hollyoaks! It's a boy-heavy week -- and a gay boy-heavy week -- in the village. Ste and James fail Sid, George continues to hurt John Paul, & Scott oversteps with Verity. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, let the Hollyblokes break it all down for you! 

Cormac’s awake, Summer wants revenge and Sienna is shot! Grace finds something very concerning. John Paul and George engage in some dangerous foreplay. And if all that isn’t enough, is Sally starting a art forgery ring at Hollyoaks High? 

The Hollyblokes are dishing it all for you! Come on in and have a cuppa while the tea is hot! 

This week in Hollyoaks, we learn the paternity of Diane’s baby, Verity tries to make a real baby with Sami, and Mercedes starts a feud with Cher after another failed attempt to get pregnant with Sylver. If that sounds like a lot of baby talk to you, it is! And where there’s baby talk, there’s baby oil. Which two Hollyoaks Hunks slathered their muscles in baby oil in a Pose-Off? The Hollyblokes are here to fill in all the blanks! 

Another big week in the village! Nancy knows there’s more to Jordan’s murder than Charlie has let on and Mandy is working overtime to protect Ella—going so far as to anonymously out Charlie as the killer online! Darren’s loyalties are tested, Marnie plays favorites, and we see a conclusion to the Dr. Ley psychodrama. The Hollyblokes are breaking it all down!
