Tonight's episode where he told Tracy to do 1 was brilliant. He needs more scenes in the show - he could be as good as April.

But it just shows how thick his dad is when he falls in love with the wrong girl.

The young actor playing Samson is shaping up very well in the role. I think he understands that his dad has learning difficulties and will always watch out for him; a reversal of the father/son roles.

its true though isnt it!

Alice was worse than sam! lisa basically brings them all up, Sam, samson, debbies kids, debs herself, noah, she will prob have to take her turn with april if brenda ever lets go,

look the pc thing to say is that sams a great dad but with his problems (recent storylines proving the point) it really does take a village to raise a child esp that one!

and i like sam, and i liked alice!

It has only just clicked that Sam's son is called Samson. Sam-son. Oh wow.

But yes, I agree. Cracking little actor!

its the fact you are tarring all with the same brush and actually being disrespectful to people with learning difficulties.

sam does a fine job and for the most part does everything for samson, there have been plenty of times he has told lisa and zak to butt out.

If I remember correctly it was Bell who named him. I think she said just that, and they all said why not.

I also seem to recall now deceased Mark Wilde being really snooty about it. Poor cheating Mark and his murderous wife

Wasn't he named after some sports figure as well? I vaguely remember Zak referencing it years ago...

While we're on the subject of Samson, I hope one day we'll see him watch the video of Alice saying goodbye to him. It seems odd to me that soap kids don't generally wonder about their missing mum or dad if they've died. Surely Samson and Bob's twins would be old enough to ask questions about their mothers by now?

Bob has twins? Ah yes, I remember. You'd never know; they're never on screen and barely referenced!

Different soap, but as someone who watches Hollyoaks daily, I honestly forgot Joh Paul supposedly has a baby...

Samson has dyslexia, but I think that's another thing conveniently forgotten.

Has Tracy the Skank gone for good now then? All it took was a 6 year old telling her to do one to get rid of the leech - pretty easy!!

I hadn't realised that either......I think its lovely that he has got that name

That scene was completely unexpected which is why I think I enjoyed it so much......."jog on then" good for you Samson!
