Ahh, come on folks. Doug won't die I don't think. Ste will just realise he's made a big old mistake because his heart is Brendan's and then we'll get the beautiful Dublin moments. Yay!

OT - Tulisa's boobs look weird in her dress tonight

I think because he's been on the other side, and he's matured and changed, he'd have more control over himself and empathy. It'd be interesting to see how close he gets though - maybe it might be a door for the Stendan heart to heart to open...

I think it's lack of faith in Hollyoaks and having to see to believe even though we have the photos I need it on screen and I want this wedding stuff over though I am looking forward to the explosion and seeing who dies (hopefully not Doug)

I guess it also depends on what Doug does and how soon that comes out too?

Yes I agree i'm hoping this crash will make Ste realise he might have died without ever seeing Brendan again and telling him he loves him. I reckon Doug might say 'I don't know how i could have lived without you' and Ste won't feel the same that thing Tony told him might come back -life is short- so he needs to tell Brendan he loves him but......Doug's already got rid of him -Stug breakup-

When Ste finds out whatever he does I really hope he says 'what right have you got to decided who is in MY life' cause really just cause he's his finace does not mean Doug should decide who he see's that's ridiculous and he'll have done it twice now!!!

I'd love this to be the case but I'm not certain it will be - there's (at least) a whole month between this and Dublin, and I'm still all up for a Ste goes to track down Brendan reunion <3

Yeah I hope Doug doesn't die. I don't think he will though... when does PJ's contract end? Does anyone have any idea? Personally, if there's two characters who die, I think it'll be one of the teenagers (my bet's on either Neil, Jono or Bart), and then either Rhys, Cindy, Tony or Jacqui though personally I think it's more likely to be Tony... not sure why. I think that Rindy will be a big point of all of it so it's not likely to be either of those two. Jacqui has Myra and the stuff there... If not any of them then probably Leanne, I think.

ETA: OH GOD I just realised that if Brendan's not at the wedding and he hears that a van crashed into the venue and exploded... we'll almost definitely get devastated/terrified Brendan.

I think you might be so right with this - I really want Ste to realise that it is Brendan he wants. A near death experience might be just what the doctor ordered

I hate it when there's secrecy, I think something big is trying to be hidden

Especially considering the 'life's too short' thing he gets from Tony. Maybe he'll re-evaluate his original response to that.

Yeah, absolutely.
It makes me sick to see how they always make Ste apologize to Doug even when he's right
He better spit in Doug's face during the break up... or else

Do you think the Dublin stuff was broken or leaked out on purpose? Initially it did seem secretive, but then because it was gotten wind of they just seemed to say 'oh fu*k it' and then there were photos everywhere. I do find the Keiron silence weird though I must say

Ooooh Emmett would do that so well!! This could be beautiful.

I hope we get more spoilers soon

Haha! Oh Hanni. Yeah I think he'll begin to realise soon enough how controlling Doug is being.

~But I did it for us, Ste~

Obviously. I hope Ste sasses him good and proper and calls him out on all that going behind his back and taking stuff out of his hands shit.

I truly believe that if you love someone you just want them to be happy. Like Brendan is trying to keep Ste happy by 'setting him free' and not interfering with his life... and Doug is just trying to do anything to keep Ste with him. That's not true love at all.

I don't think there was that much secrecy really, we knew Emmett was on location all week and he tweeted about Dublin too I think it only all got out cos they were filming in public places in Dublin. The Kieron thing is worrying me though cos I just can't think why or what he'd give away and what date he's banned til

Oh don't. HOW can he think marrying Doug is the right thing to do? He didn't even care about him coming back when he went to the USA - it was all about Brendan. I suppose they are showing him slowly realising it is Brendan he wants, but really jeez


Oh don't Hannival. I can't stand it much longer. It's like Ste has to be thankful for breathing. Doug is stifling, it happened as soon as he came back from America. Their relationship dynamic is all wrong. Go on, for once I'll condone spitting

ETA - 'oh don't' - I need a new catchphrase

I'm getting suspicious now... no-one thinks the Kieron silence is cos Ste's gonna die right? Right? Kieron loves it too much on Oaks at the moment - he said so!

Oh God ghost-Ste in Dublin would totally break my heart

ETA: The more I think about this, the more I think "Brendan's things he wishes hed done with Ste"

Nothing like a bus full of annoying teens crashing into your wedding to make you realise your still in love with your exGOD it's soooooooo soapy.

Not sure of the dates of spoilers but it's in the next couple of weeks that Shawnee is back and that Doug decides to do something about Brendan isn't it. Then the wedding is the week of the 12th Nov I think so that gives us 6wks until Christmas week. If Dublin is sometime before Christmas we have about 5wks to wait from the week of the wedding. It's not really that long and Stug can only be married for a matter of weeks. I don't think Doug will die as that makes Stendan reunion look to easy, I think Ste will have more doubts after the wedding/crash about who he loves then bam the truth will come out about what Doug has done and they break up. Not sure if Ste will automatically go running back to Bren but somehow they then end up holding hands in Dublin and kissing on a bridge.

I remember when we all posted at the start of the Summer about the long wait we had until Later started and look how quickly that came round. It's all gonna be good guys but please don't hold me to that just incase

Ghost Ste! Noooooooooo - Dublin is real and I will not hear anything other


Ha! Indeed. They've added a couple of extra spokes to the Storyliners Wheel

Hi, I know I'm asking this again, but do we know Stug actually marry? I thought t he spoilers say something about preparing to marry before the minibus hits? Just think maybe the crash makes Ste re-think what he's doing and realise that he needs Brendan?

Could anyone point me in the direction of where it says they do marry and get me to stop over analysing etc lol

TOO LATE. I'm holding you to it.

Can we please calm down and stop being drama queens? No one is dying, don't worry



Did it for us my ass God, he's gross. Their whole dynamic is gross.
*vomits*

BIB: this made me realize how they've been turning Doug into old!Brendan, the one who meddled with Ste's life.
Except that at least Brendan wasn't victimised all the time and Ste didn't apologize to him every time he did something shitty

Yes unfortunately Stug do get married, although I don't expect them to stay married for long
