He really is a tedious clown with no fresh ideas.
That said a new character is no bad thing.
What the **** is your damage, Kirkwood? What the **** is wrong with this man? What even is this show?
Genuinely agree 100% can't bear them as a couple, I just wish that there was a better way of seeing the end of their relationship without yet another affair / infidelity / betrayal from one of them.
It seems that when HO needs a storyline, they pick a name from a hat and have them cheat!!
I really don't know how, but it's still getting worse. I believe there is still a fundamentally good show deep down, but Kirkwood has to go, its getting embarrassing to watch at times. I love Hollyoaks, but he is destroying it.
Agreed. I like JP and Ste A LOT separately. But together I find them incredibly tiresome. I would much prefer to see JP focussing more on his career and looking after his son (where is that child by the way??) then finding love with someone more suited him.
One thing that really bugs me, if they do break up, is that Ste will have had 2 failed marriages! At his age?! It seems to make an absolute mockery of the sanctity or marriage. I think we've fought so hard for Gay rights in terms of marriage, yet Ste and JP jumped in with both feet and now it's just piece of paper they got at a party. It means nothing to them.
They turn characters who were perfectly nice before or loved-up couples and make them cheat for no reason. Of all a sudden they realise that THIS person is the one they really want. It seems ironic that the baddies are relatively monogamous.
Can't we have some characters with a moral backbone? If someone is nice in Hollyoaks they are treated as a doormat and repeatedly jailed or accused based on no evidence.
And please if characters have to cheat can they not cheat with a partner's family member? Even worse is when they have children. So far Idon't think they've had a woman give birth to two family members children (well Maxine got pregnant by both but she had an abortion) but even with step partners already related to the children it's icky.
They did the whole thing whereby Ste hooked up with Connor because he looks like Doug - yet apparently don't remember that Ste was married to Doug. Remember before Christmas, Tony gave him a pep talk about "you've come such a long way and now ... you're getting married ..." Making out like it was Ste's first marriage, even though the first one was a joint ceremony with Tony and Cindy!
Not to mention how both Ste's marriages ended with the couple splitting up at the reception ... although in that respect he's just doing what everyone else in the show does
Oh God, this so much. Just split them up already. Don't care which one of them Scott cops off with, but Ste and JP do not and have never worked as a couple.
LOL yeah don't get me wrong, I know that marriage in HO means nothing, no matter who the couple are (see Tony & Diane, Darren & Nancy, Joe & Lindsay, Porsche & Lockie, Freddie & Sinead etc, etc). It really is an insult when you consider that the only stable married couple on the show is Jack and Frankie, who've had more breakups and affairs than hot dinners!!!
Why should there be a limit? Grow up.
I agree.
True.
Why are we convinced that this Scott character is going to be more interesting as a partner for Ste or JP? This seems to fall in the category of anyone but. I haven't seen Scott yet but I think he's more likely to be an uninteresting character played by a not very good actor. The standards seem quite low for casting atm. That Freddie is the object of what is supposed to be an epic romance says everything.
I really depends for me on this character if its just another random shocking affair with a character who is caricature to suit some evil plan of Sinead's then forget it. I am tired of the random shocking affairs that people have to be random and shocking.
same here.
I don't think anyone is hoping Scott arrives and splits JP and Ste up by having one of them fall in love with him. I suspect we will see the usual drivel, where Scott will manipulate his way into one of their affections, and pounce on them when they're at they're lowest ebb (possibly after yet another huge argument between them where one of them declares it 'over') The morning after, Ste or JP will wake up next to VileScott and regret their actions, run back to their significant other apologise for yesterdays argument and assume life is back on track, only for VileScott to rock up and spill the beans whilst Sinead looks on smiling and rubbing her hands at the prospect of getting rid of JP once and for all.
Well I would hope if they are going to break up Ste and JP it would be for a substantive character that you could see one of them actually being in love with. You know an actual storyline.
But I agree what you describe is what will likely happen. It is in fact what is happening with all the couples not just Ste and JP. I find that very boring.
