Is he the worst soap character ever, its sicken to know some decent characters got axed and this poor character remains. Hes not even funny. Its such a same a decent character like ricky is stuck with him.

Oh he's improved so much! I think his antics with Darren and Mitzeee have made him far more loveable.

If you watch the early years of Hollyoaks charaters like him ran the show and the new EP seems to be tryig toi grasp the roots of HO, like bringing Bombhead and Lee back and keeping cindy and bringing back mandy.

I couldn't stand Duncan at first. Literally loathed him and his stupid face. I waved him off with joy with the Ashworths. Bye Duncan! Then the next epi, the little b*stard was back.

But if there's one thing that's proved to me that it's not the characters, it's what you do with them that counts, then it's Duncan. He's not the greatest actor, but they've given him a really sweet relationship with Darren, he's had good scenes with Seth, he's funny with Ricky and Bart and Lee, and I liked him trying to get off with Mitzeee and then trying to brag to Sinead. I don't want him on my screen all the time but, yeah, Duncan, I can live with you without wanting to drown you and push you off the jetty.

There are worse soap characters. Ravi the unconvincing bisexual comes to mind.

have always liked Duncan on the show, him and Ricky have the potential to be the next Max and OB.

I think he has great chemistry with Mitzeee, these 2 should definitely have more storylines together.

I like Chunkeh Dunkeh and think him and Mitzeee have a great dynamic together, how hilariously ironic would it be if he actually did lose his virginity with her? Coz literally NO ONE would believe him lol

Praise where it's due, he's my favourite younger character by some way.

It's funny that my favourite older character is Darren as well

I like complex characters, who put on a front, but are different deep down.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, would make quite a surreal storyline, you could imagine them getting drunk and ending up sleeping together and then Mitzeee being embarassed by it and tells Duncan not to tell anyone and Duncan living in a daze (more than usual)

Duncan's great. I prefer him to the likes of Leanne, Texas or Fin.

And... it'll be cool that his sister is coming into the show.

Hopefully we'll learn some more about his family life!

Yeah I heard that, any idea when that is?

Hope she is just as deluded as he is or is completely the opposite, an absolute stunner.

Its Anna Shaffer.

Have you seen Half Blood Prince by any chance? She plays Romilda Vane in the film.

Not a HP fan, so haven't seen her. Could be good regardless.

I remember LA was quoted somewhere saying that she wanted Duncan and Ricky to be the next Max and OB.

And then proceeded to give them almost no scenes together and nothing likeable to do.

They've both massively improved now, given some decent material.

Darren is the heart and soul of Hollyoaks (in an antihero kind of way). Any character who is paired with him comes off well out of it.

i think it depends on the post itself and what it's about-as u refer to bad girls, not everyone may have necessarily seen it, or know the answer to the question. Sometimes people just can't be bothered to reply lol-but that may just be me ↲i also prefer to browse and don't do a lot of posting myself-don't always get the chance.↲hope that helped in some way

I really like Duncan, he's quite vunerable underneath the cheeky chappy exterior. There's some interesting things coming up with him on HO.
