Hollyoaks Hollyoaks

Seems like Hollyoaks has fallen out of favour with the viewership.

Although I still tune in frequently. I just had to search the characters that have been recently axed, and there's plenty. But most I didn't notice their absence.

Has it been confirmed who will be written out? I’ve read that the actors playing

Spoiler

Warren and Romeo

had decided to leave anyway but who are the other 20 characters who’ve fallen victim to the cull?

Yesterday I simply Googled Hollyoaks cast. There was list of characters leaving or have left in 2024.

Romeo and Warren both on the list. As well as Cindy and Norma, and many others.

It's a pity but Hollyoaks seems to be fading.

I don't watch it - so may be being ignorant here but I don't understand how this time jump is supposed to work. They're going to roll the clock forward so it's September 2025 instead of September 2024? Isn't that going to make the sure off kilter with the real world (not that Hollyoaks has ever been the most grounded soap tbf)?

I think in all honesty, Hollyoaks has got the best and most deserved chance at winning at the next British Soap Awards ceremony, for the reason being that TPTB have been brave enough to make urgent cutbacks whereby reducing the number of episodes from 2-3 per week, in line with how the soaps used to be and how Hollyoaks has and is evolving and getting better over time, it just needs more adult characters and less teenager characters, even a cast cull with less characters to coincide with the reduced episodes and then the show will go from strength to strength. Whilst Hollyoaks and EastEnders began a decade apart, Hollyoaks has got a better chance now definitely now without a doubt because EastEnders has become too farfetched, retconned, ruined, destroyed, and lost completely all credibility it ever had at all.

If they can get good production team on board such as Tony McHale or even Jimmy McGovern, it'll give Hollyoaks a greater boost and the envy of the other British soaps, or if Phil Redmond ever decides to return.
