Wallis Day who plays her said on Twitter tonight that Holly would be back but she didn't say when. I'm sure I read somewhere that she'd signed a 6 month contract.

Holly is a 26 year old woman, she has a life of her own now and hasn't got time to hang around in Chester.

She old compared to the age of the character she's meant to be!

What a pointless visit that was, Cindy barely spoke to her.

Ah, thank you for the answer. Terrible casting, methinks. She looks more like Cindy's sister than daughter.

I think it's the best thing to have done. Usually when a character gets re-casted they get a lot of screen time and it just doesn't work. So now we sort of know the new Holly before she makes her full-time return.

I was wondering how old she was supposed to be myself, the last time I remember seeing her I assumed she was about 10 so you can imagine my confusion when she turned up at the wedding looking in her early-mid 20s!

I asked my mum how old she thought she was considering she has never watched Hollyoaks before, she thought she about 25. Also, I do think she could of had more than like 5 lines in her return.

Absolutely ridiculous. Fair enough casting someone to play a character younger than them, but FFS at least make sure they look the age of the person they're playing!

This is way more embarrassing than Corrie's Michelle and Ryan!

And Stephanie Waring ought to grow up a bit (rather like Holly has) and accept people will have opinions on this and it's not her business to snap at them on twitter!!

I agree Michelle, Stephanie needs to accept people have opinions, she seemed pissed off because people were commenting about the age difference. Also the girl 18, but she looks like she's 24 scenes in school, hanging out with Tom will look weird.

Exactly! In no way whatsoever does she look anywhere near 14. As usual, HO just employ a blonde pretty girl who'll have all the boys after her:yawn:! Is it just me who can see a predictable underage pregnancy s/l in the near future:sleep:?

Hopefully she's a good actress and wasnt just casted for her looks. It be weird if she does the HO calender even though it will be her she also be known as 14 year old Holly.
I see her being totally different to original Holly, she'll be 'a bad teen'.
Where has Holly returned to? The boarding school, that her bankrupt mother is paying for.
Where was she living for the summer holidays?

I used to watch Hollyoaks yrs ago, but have only started watching again in the last couple of months.
I'm still learning characters names. I didn't actually know that Cindy had a daughter, so when Holly (who looks about 25) came into the church and someone said who she was, I did a double take. ''Daughter'' ?! I thought I'd misheard or someone had meant to say ''sister'' surely ?
Later, Tony asked Holly where her mother was (so I had heard right the first time) - and that made me think that Cindy must be in her mid forties (but looking nowhere near it), to have a grown up daughter.
I was shocked when I got online and read that the daughter is meant to be only 14 !

I thought it was a bit strange she did a semi dramatic entrance, said a few words, then in the crash, Cindy didn't seem at all interested in whether her daughter was ok, just worried about Rhys,then next we knew she'd gone again! We didn't even see Cindy talk to her did we?? It all seemed a bit pointless really. I know it seems she is due to come back, but for the amount of time we did see her and her non interaction with her mum, they may just as well have had her turn up out the blue another time!

Plus have to agree with the age she looks. Yes 14 year olds can look older, but she did look in her twenties. The actress may only be four years older, but still, surely there was some other blond 18 year olds around who maybe didn't look so old!

Agree with you there - many a pervy twenty-something man has been left red faced after checking out a girl, not realising her jailbait status - get to a certain point, put on enough make up, its hard to tell, but not only is this actress obviously technically older, but she really really looks older than her allready older age! its bizarre casting. Though the actress seems OK, and she IS very pretty

Wallis is 18 years old shes only playing someone two years younger

Scarlett Bowman is 26 and played a 17 year old
It doesn't matter how old you are, its whether you are right for the part, looks included.

Wallis may only be 18 but imo she looks much older, like someone in their 20s, not a 14 year old girl. Remember her and Tom are the same age, could you imagine them acting together in a scene like they used to?

imo again, Bowman looked too old for 17 too but still not as bad as Wallis.
