PM has already said that instead that instead of celebrating the 15th year, it's more 'Hollyoaks' to celebrate the Sweet 16th birthday. Anyone else think they could pull of a live episode?
The story could be - Who Gave Mercedes the Clap? - a massive whodunnit that grips the nation before the big reveal comes out in the live episode when one in the huge line-up of suspects tells all. It episode culminates in a live late-night sex scene and gruesome murder where someone skydives off a building only for it to blow up!
absolutely not, the cast is nowhere near strong enough to pull that off. It's bad enough watching it now.
I don't get this?? Why, if the HO actors are so bad that Emmerdale cast 3 actors from the show, Jon Paul - Ryan Lamb, Eli - Jackson, Lee Hunter - Jamie. And now Corrie has cast Chris Fountain as Tommy Duckworth, and Mike Barnes as the prominent fire fighter in the live ep of Corrie. If HO acting was that bad, why are the 'serious' soaps casting ex HO actors?

that has no relevance to anything, as they aren't on the show and wont be in the near future.
If they did a live episode, it would be centered around the stronger characters such as Darren and Jacqui. They wouldn't take the risk with most of the cast such as Amber, the Costello Boys etc as they can't cut it now, let alone live.
Apart from a few decent actors, most of them are average and below, most of their strongest actors have left such as those you said and also Emma Rigby, Kevin Sacre and Gerard McCarthy.

I'd actually pay good money to see what Amber and Gabby did live. I sense an instant youtube classic.
BIB: you could say the same of any soap.
But yes, Darren, Jacqui, Brendan, Ste, possibly Sinead, Jas, Bart, some of the old pros like Jack and Frankie, maybe Rhys could all cut the mustard. Oh, Cheryl and Trevva! (OK maybe not Cheryl ...)

The relevance is that HO actors get slammed all the time for not being very good, then ex HO actors get snapped up by the bigger soaps. I just don't get the constant diss of how bad their acting is. Some are bad yes, but that can be said of any soap which others have mentioned before.
They could defo pull it off live, maybe they would need a few older staonrger characters back, the likes of Justin and Hannah! But the actors, in general, are no better or worse than Corrie and EE and the SL's are certainly better!
But HO has it's own thing, we have Later and all that!
But on-topic the cast can definitely pull off a live episode!
People need should start realising the show has amazing actors such as:
Ashley Taylor Dawson
Nick Pickard
Steph Waring
Jimmy McKenna
Helen Pearson
Jessica Fox
Sarah Jayne Dunn
Claire Cooper
Jennifer Metcalfe
Gemma Merna
Nicole Barber-Lane
Jorgie Porter
Rachel Shenton
Emmett Scanlan
Bronagh Waugh
Kieron Richardson
and even more.
so much for the cast 'not being strong'
the show atm has its strongest cast than its ever had.

Oh, Cindy, Mitzee and Myra! Yeah, how could I forget them? They're all amazing. I actually can't wait for Cindy to come back and go head to head with Mitzeee.

Good grief is it that old already. And Nick Pickard who plays Tony Hutchinson is still in it too. It'd be nice if there was a live episode, and I've always wanted a complete repeat from start to present day episodes - as I missed the likes of Kurt & Ollie Benson, Stan, Ruth Osborne, Jambo & co.
Comments
That's not true at all, the acting in Hollyoaks is just as good/bad as the other soaps, it's just that the cast is predominantly teenagers.
I think that's slightly unfair. There are worse actors on EE and Corrie, yet they managed to do it live.
Too much? Or not subtle enough?

But I'm not sure it's the way for HO to go. It's kinda been done now ...
It could so easily happen. Cheryl would have to Heimlich him. Or Ste.

Gotta add Emmett and Victoria to the list!
I sort of love this idea but it would be insanely cheesy!
