On ‘Hollyoaks’: Maxine thinks Adam is a murderer. Grace is the murderer. Why is Leah in hospital? Kim lurks in the hospital. Doesn’t Esther need her anti-rejection meds? Why are the Osbournes hiding? Nick and Tegan and Eva bore. Tegan makes insulting statements. Nancy is sick. There is not sufficient comic material. Nick lurks. Maxine spews accusatory information and acts like a moron. Neeta lurks. This was innocuous. Kim and Esther have reunited. Leah needs a slap. Jack is a twit. Darren still has nice hair despite the fact the Osbournes are hiding out in a one room hideout.

“All my friends are gone!”
“I loved you!”
“You put me in A&E!”
“Don’t hurt me!”
“You stupid little cow!”
