The walls begin to close in on Jez Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) in Hollyoaks next week as Sienna (Anna Passey) starts to piece together the truth about his crimes.
The crazed killer has claimed the lives of numerous show favourites, including Dilly Harcourt (Emma Johnsey-Smith) and Dennis Savage (Joe Tracini).
He’s also to blame for Abe Fielding’s (Tyler Conti) demise and that of Bobby Costello (Zak Sutcliffe), as well as murdering social worker Ian Stone.
Jez’s murderous antics date back decades, with mum Martha (Sherrie Hewson) having covered up for him for years.
While Sienna has some inkling of what her twisted biological father is capable of after she helped him dispose of Dilly’s body, she remains in the dark about his true penchant for murder.
But that all begins to change next week.
As audiences know, there have been ructions in the Blake household in the wake of Jez’s twisted relationship with Liberty Savage (Jessamy Stoddart) having been exposed.
Jez and Liberty, however, are unfazed it seems, with the former asking the latter to be his partner in the upcoming Hollyoaks in Bloom flower show.
The Blakes remain divided about the relationship, though Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin) urges Sienna to support her family.
Jez, meanwhile, wants to be a better person for Sienna after everything she’s done for him and thus he sets Robbie Roscoe (Charlie Wernham) free for his happy-ever-after with Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence).
But will such a thing come to pass? The jury is still out and, as for Jez, time is running out as Sienna is left confused after discovering that Dilly’s DNA was found on Ian and Dennis’ evidence.
Determined to get answers, she heads to the allotment. However, Jez isn’t not there and Sienna spots something in the flower beds – and begins to dig.
The scenes in question were previewed in Hollyoaks’ Summer Trailer last week and let’s just say that they’re intense. A showdown follows but will Jez finally pay for his crimes?
