MAY CONTAIN SPOILERSKerrie Taylor plays the role of Lucy Benson very well being rather sassy but also gets into a lot of trouble from getting addicted to drugs to being bound and gagged in a water tank!Kerrie's most famous scene in Hollyoaks is in the episode called 'The Water Tank'. Over 2 episodes Kerrie gets kidnapped and later on almost drowned in a water tank and during this all tied up. She spends the majority of these episodes tied up, gagged and blindfolded with black cloth. And although at the start the gag is needed as the character, Lucy is trying to attract attention by screaming, later on she gives up but remains gagged. This could be to enforce her role of being 'damsel in distress' who are commonly gagged with something. An example of Lucy being gagged for no reason other that to not annoy Rob Hawthorne and to look the part of being a damsel is when she is in the abandoned water tank factory with Rob where she sits there, tied to a chair and gagged. This could also be to enforce some humour and to make Rob look like a the type of person to not like his ex-girlfriends voice.Lucy Benson does try to escape from being kidnapped though, thus making the blindfolds and the gags seem more necessary to use.

Myra should not return she is not necessary. The McQueens irritate me too. It's pretty much rubbish now. I've never really liked Theresa or many of the McQueens. You should read what the fans say over on the messageboards.No wonder the best rating is 5/5. I just think that the show's quality is mediocre at best these days. Some characters are so unattractive as well. Plus what are they doing here in the first place anyway? That question is still unanswered. I loved Carmel. I agree Silas should return. He was unattractive though.

I have been watching Hollyoaks for over 12 years now and I have never missed an Episode. I am very surprised at how underrated it is to be honest, it is a great TV Show and definitely one of the best soaps. The characters are great and the story lines are always very gripping and don't last too long and there is usually more than one big storyline at a time so it never gets boring and usually the soaps all have similar story lines like they are copying each other, Hollyoaks always have original story lines. It was great to see it finally get the recognition it deserves by winning Best British Soap at the Soap Awards this year.

let me start of by saying holly-oaks is a very underrated soap. although it does mainly focus on the six formers and the university crew, but thats not a reason to hate on this show. the show has had its good story lines such as1)sarahs parusuit death 2)carls and mercadies affair 3)gilly rapes Jacquie 4)Silas the serial killer 5)george and phoebe sex storyline.although the teen soap has had its fair share of story lines i can 100% under stand why a lot of people would find this show irritating because they kill of such strong actors/actresses such as Rae and recently killing of one of the strongest actresses they have on the show LYNSEY who in their right mind would kill of Lynsey with her BIG EXPLOSIVE storyline with Silas. the show has many characters that they need to axe fast because they CAN NOT ACT. jono,ruby,Neil,liberty,Texas,Dennis,callum,Lacey. thats why the holly-oaks don't have as many viewers as they used to have.but to make up for the dreadful wooden acting from the above, the show has its strong ACTORS/ACTRESESS such as mitzieee,Jacquie,Brendan,Darren,Nancy,will and Ash thats still not an excuse to kill of a excellent actresses then higher stuped pointless actors.holly-oaks does have its good and its bads moments but its a soap and if you can name me a soap that doesn't have its bad day then i will be IN FOR A SHOCK. if you read this review then make sure you try it out now as were about to find out Lynsey's murder in the upcoming weeks. this show deserves a 8star
