Hollyoaks - Stendan or Stug? Who do you prefer?
There's been a lot of debate over Stendan vs Stug.
Many Stug fans are annoyed at Emmett's comment about what he thinks of Stug. Stendan is very popular as they won "Best Partnership" at British Soap Awards. Team Stendan or Team Stug? |

I like Doug; I'm sad he's gone.
That being said, Stendan was better. Stoug was good, but Stendan was better. |

Stug but wasn't keen on either.
Was more just a Doug fan. |

I did like the 'Stendan' storyline, but I didn't like them as a couple, any other relationship that went like theirs would not be popular and it wouldn't make them a 'lovely meant to be' couple. Brendan violently hurt Ste on several occasions. It was a good storyline, but not a good relationship.
I didn't like Stug because they turned Doug gay overnight and they changed his character. We saw Doug as a character that liked women, he loved Bex who was called his soul mate and he tried to kill himself because he couldn't live without Bex. That doesn't mean they couldn't have turned Doug gay, but something like that would have to develop over time, not be done in one episode. I didn't care for 'Stug', but I did like some of their scenes together and I do believe that they cared/loved each other, but not in a husband/husband way, I would have preferred it if they had remained just close friends. So.. I can't vote in the poll, because I didn't care for either 'Stendan' or 'Stug'. |

If I really had to pick one though stendan (adleast they had chemistry) |

'Stendan' - far more interesting. But mainly Brendan, with or without Ste - always fascinating.

I wasn't a massive fan of either but probably Stug. I struggled with the whole domestic abuse thing.

Stug because they had something they could have built on, Stendan was nauseating and psychotic, no basis for a relationship or friendship for that matter.
I liked Doug as a character. Emmet is one overrated actor and a half. So over dramatic even when he's just standing there with his hands in his pockets he pulls random faces and breathes all weirdly. |

Stendan. Brendan loves Steven and Steven loves Brendan. End of. (Gutted that Hollyoaks made up a load of s*** along the way about Dug being Ste's better half). Ste and Dug were like brothers, who wants to see brothers in a relationship

![]() I can't bring myself to vote on this poll, as the Stendan and Stug fans have really damaged my love for all characters involved and for the show in general. Honestly, BB was a great character, ruined by TPTB pandering to a group of fanatics who kept demanding that they keep a very unhealthy and latterly very boring domestic abuse story going far longer than needed. It was interesting at first, also great to take ste in a new direction, but they should have left it at the point Ste realized he was being abused and got help. As for Doug and Ste, I can buy Ste going Gay, I can even see Doug going that way, but it was so badly done, would have been better if he was Bi instead. I would also like to have seen Doug show more of a backbone and not be such a wet lettice. since when does changing your sexual preference mean you now have to mince like an extra on are you being served? I can honestly say all are great actors who got lumbered with shit story writers.. |

Stug because that wasn't abusive (not as much as Stendan anyway) Ste should have stay with Doug and never gone back to Brendan.

the idea behind Stendan was that the unconditional love given to Brendan by Steven changed his character from an abusive man who couldn't control himself to the loving , generous man he would have been had he not been abused.
Stug was just developed to put a barrier between Brendan and Steven until Brendan began to change. As the time came for their reunion ( which had been planned months in advance), the producers made Doug into a totally irritating, whining person in an effort to make people dislike him. They did however, make it Doug who decided to send Steven off to Dublin to see Brendan. The reunion was just an attempt to give his death some angst and I am glad that it over. |

Hated both. But I do have to say, I was surprised by Emmett's comment. He's such a lovely guy usually but I thought that was a bit insulting to PJ and Kieron's work tbh. I'm not surprised some fans are annoyed.
