So on ‘Holloaks’, Ste and Brendan have post coital bliss, did they change the sheets after John-Paul left? TPTB continue to romanticise domestic violence as spineless Ste listens to Brendan make a long speech as to how he is the victim in all this now and forever. Ste is moronic and this soap is terrible. Ste and Brendan trash a deserted pub in whimsical fashion. Cheryl is delighted Ste and Brendan are together overlooking how Brendan stalked and harassed Ste, broke his ribs and gave him black eyes. Ste has not yet told his kids that daddy Doug is gone but daddy Brendan will be around soon enough. Nobody cares about Doug. Then Brendan and Cheryl’s dad shows up so Brendan can play the victim some more.

‘The Domination’ Quotes:
“Where are the children of men who befo’ 1914 calmly sat to debate how ‘enlightenment’ and ‘reform’ would be forced on the primitive Draka, how they could bring us ‘democracy’? In graves from here to China, workin’ in our fields and kitchens, laborin’ in mines and factories to build our power, singin’ for our pleasure after this excellent dinner.”
“They’re still waiting. They know about us. They’re trying to find us. And they’re hungry.”
