He is only in the show and is 100% evil. Usually characters like that don't last long at all and he also seems 1 dimensional aswell.

They should've had him as a cheeky bad boy instead of a heartless thug who robbed a pregnant girl at gunpoint and accused his innocent uncle of sexual abuse.
I feel that his days are numbered and I cannot see any good in him at all.

I feel like he's got a school shooting storyline written all over him. We Need To Talk About Kevin vibes coming through loud and clear. I don't agree he's one-dimensional. He's a creepy little psychopath desperate to prove his status as an alpha male. Hollyoaks have never really shown a truly evil character starting off as a school boy, have they? His character could run and run for ages as he's clearly pretty intelligent to go with it. He knows how to manipulate people and wind them up. I'm really looking forward to seeing just how far he'll push it.

Could Hollyoaks do such a storyline?

He is a good actor but I can't see him lasting. He will do something bad like Browning and Silas and when he gets found out he will end up either dead or in prison.

I think they COULD do it, yes. They did one in Glee fairly recently; if they can do it in that then surely they can do it in Hollyoaks? It would be harrowing and gritty and exactly the type of storyline Hollyoaks excels in. But I'm not sure they would ever want to, as there's always the likelihood that it would coincide with a real life shooting and would then need to be hastily shelved.

BK is clearly a massive fan with all the screen time he got during his first stint and now he has the story with Jay's dad from The Inbetweeners and another big story coming up

He's going nowhere for a very long time and will have endless storylines, the Roscoes are clearly the new McQueens.

I have a question

Is Jean Sandy's sister or Alan's Sister?

Or are Jean and Ken just old family friends of the roscoes and not the boy's actual aunt and uncle-in-law?

because if Jean and Sandy were supposed to be sisters I would find that very hard to believe

Jacqui and Myra have already left two massive McQueen-shaped holes, they are quite weak now.

I think Jean is the Roscoe dad's sister.

That's the only thing keeping me remotely interested in his character: why is he so evil, when his family are seemingly quite sane.

My main problem with Robbie is that he has no redeeming features at all. He made up this abuse lie just so he could be welcomed back into the family and his past actions forgotten. He's got no heart, no conscience, no morals, no feelings at all. He's such a psychopath. He's the kind of character I think has a short-shelf life, but knowing HO, they'll hang on to him way past his use-by-date.

I only started watching Hollyoaks again after a long time for Myra's departure and instead of re-hooking me they have lost me again because of this kid Robbie who I have only seen in two episodes. I hate all the Roscoes but wonder as we have Freddie, Robbie, Ziggy and Sandy, why aren't the others Joey and Jasy(or some other name that ends in y/ie)?

Robbie is my least favorite Roscoe, I hope he's the first to go.

Although Mercedes was my least favorite McQueen at the start and she's still in Hollyoaks now.

I liked Robbie but they're making it really hard to like him now. I do think he is played by a good actor though.

It's more likely that the names are abbreviations - Frederick, Robert, Sandra /Alexandra, Joseph, and David is Ziggy's real name, maybe we'll find out the origins of that in the future (unless his middle name is "Bowie" LOL).

As for Robbie, I think Charlie Wernham is excellent, but he is just such an unlikeable character even more so now with the supposed abuse story, and now his treatment of JP. (I just want to punch him most of the time!!)

I really liked the Roscoes without him, he really brings the family down, "things are way more interesting with me back" he said to his brother. NO ROBBIE THEY ARE REALLY NOT:yawn::sleep:

Robbie is the worst Roscoe. The rest of The Roscoes are the best family since The McQueens. Yup, I said it.

Yes he is, what an evil little s*** I don't think much of him as an actor either.
Joe and Freddie are my fave Roscoes. I'm more interested in knowing what happens when Joe 'loses the plot now' lol

Yeah I feel the same, he has even less redeeming features than before!
