Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Wednesday’s (July 16) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
There’s nothing like a great big twist right before a soap wedding to throw everything on its head – and that’s exactly what Hollyoaks served up during its last episode of the week.
With groom-to-be / serial killer Jez Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) all set to wed John Paul McQueen (James Sutton), he confided in Robbie Roscoe (Charlie Wernham) about how happy he is in life right now.
In fact, he reckons he’s never been happier. Robbie, who is being held captive by the murderer at the allotment, listened intently as Jez explained the catalyst in what led to such overwhelming joy.
‘None of this would have happened,’ he said. ‘I wouldn’t be in the happiest place I’ve ever been in my life if I hadn’t killed Tommy and blamed Joel for it’.
Talk about a twist.
The Tommy that Jez is referring to is, of course, Tommy Odenkirk (Brandon Fellows), the fake therapist who recorded his murderous confessions and used them to blackmail him.
Tommy was murdered earlier this year, with Joel Dexter (Rory Douglas-Speed) – who was led by Tommy to believe that he’d killed someone – convinced that he was to blame.

Joel confessed to the police and was subsequently jailed. But it turns out that Joel is actually innocent – it was Jez who committed the crime, framing Joel for it.
Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin), meanwhile, made it quite clear that she doesn’t want Joel in her unborn baby’s life due to the fact he’s killed someone.
If only she knew!
And on the subject of shock twists, that wasn’t the only one in store for fans during the episode in question, with Bobby Costello (Zak Sutcliffe) learning from Martha (Sherrie Hewson) that Jez was the one who murdered his social worker.
With Jez believing that all his loose ends have been tied up ahead of tying the knot, the question is: will the truth of his heinous crimes come spilling out via Bobby? And will Joel get justice?
