A thread for those who want to speculate etc and aren't afraid of spoilers 
If Jeffe Rawle is filming this week, this could be around the time Hollyoaks: Later airs. Meaning some gritty stuff similar to last year.
Surely he would be back for revenge on original intended victim, Texas. And of course Lynsey. However would Hollyoaks be brave enough to kill off one of their leading actresses (i.e. Mercedes, Mitzeee, Lynsey etc).

I have heard that:
At that plays out over three days in the final week of June.
That's interesting and probably likely.
I don't know if HO would have the nerve to kill off Texas. I think they could but i'm just not so sure, I think it'd be disappointing for Silas to return and NOT kill someone
It will probably end with Silas' death and they need to focus on all the characters involved and have a real aftermath and the other storylines will need to be just as good, they can't repeat the same mistake they did last year where they lost all the viewers they gained and the ones that stuck around became really critical and annoyed by the lack of aftermath and the focus on poor characters and storylines.
I would also like to see a main character killed, Texas would obviously be the best choice, she was meant to be the first HOs victim. Obviously Lynsey would have to be in the storyline, but she should survive. And Mercedes is still around, if Riley and Mitzeee are together when this happens, Mitzeee could be a target.. Silas could take offense that Riley is dating Heidi's cousin, plus the fact that Mitzeee and Carl slept together. Doug would have to react, even though he and Ste are loved up and having picnics and sneaking pecks on the cheek, they really can't forget the love of Doug's life, a woman, was killed by Silas last year.
But how long could Silas last? He could no longer hide out in the open, he can no longer pose as a father and grandfather, the mistaken target of a mad woman, he would have to really hide, Brendan would also be a big threat to him and there would be no-one doubting that Silas is back because it would make the news, which again would make it tricky for Silas because the police will be around, which makes me think that this storyline might only last a week, but as this was my favourite soap story ever, I would gladly take some plot holes to have Silas around for a lot longer.
I would also love to see Silas take Lynsey and hear him talk about his past and all the women he killed, over 100 as the paper claims, then it could end with Brendan rescuing Lynsey and Silas ending up dead, heart attack, murder, suicide.
I think a good way to end this would be him killing Texas in Later (in say...episode 3/4) and then he himself dies in the final episode. I think that pattern would be quite good.
Let's face it, Silas always worked better when he was at his most violent, so these late night episodes would do the story justice.
He wasn't sent to prison (I don't think), he was deemed insane. Don't ask how I know this as I haven't watched HO in months! I do read bits in the soap magazines and here though.
I have a funny feeling he pleads for something like 'day release', worse decision a home could ever make for someone like our Silas
Aah right, i probably just assumed he was in prison...
He was in prison up until a few weeks ago when the papers announced that he wouldn't stand trial and instead would be committed to a hospital as he was declared insane.
(And Jono too! I BEG you!)
I wonder if he would go after Mercy too? She hasn't changed her ways and he didn't get to kill her last time.
I agree it would be a total shame if he did return without a kill, it's what we all love him for! And yes, hopefully he will be around for longer than a few episodes!
That's what I thought too. Don't forget Silas set him up (I think!)
Defeat, Plant? Hardly!
It always seemed as if the Silas storyline wasn't over.
There's no way they planned this. It's a last minute panic storyline like a few have been lately.
This is what worries me Ringo, the writing is very childish at the moment, I am not sure the new writers are up to it
The problem is, this was Hollyoaks last big GOOD storyline that had everyone talking, so moving on clearly hasn't worked in a big impact kind of way since this.
I also think that Silas has been brought back because last year the ratings were double what they are now, they know the storyline was loved and they saw the buzz it created, they know that it was a big storyline and hopefully they know that they messed up with the lack of aftermath and they will now fix is.
I am looking forward to Silas' return, I also know that it will probably end in his death, but I hope we see a good few weeks of his storyline and it is up to the same standard as it was last year, but my fear is that it will be a quick storyline the other storylines this year and I also fear that the writing for the story and for the characters will be messed up and it could ruin the whole Silas storyline, including last year. There also needs to be a main character death for it to create the bang that people are looking forward to it having.
They also need to make sure they have good storylines to run along side the aftermath and not have another teen week which ruined the ending to Silas last year. This might get last years viewers back, lets hope they don't make the same mistake and show some awful storyline after to drive them away.
