So Hollyoaks officially has no couple that hasn't cheated on each other or cheated on someone else so they can be together.


Oh, apart from Tom and Peri.


They need to sort this out!

The young ones are more faithful than the adult characters and have generally not built their relationships on the miseries of others.

I assume the Lovedays are happily married but then they have their secret coming up soon.

Darren and Maxine lasted all of one second. Does he not give a toss about her now?

Didn't this also happen when Bryan was producing Eastenders? I think there was a period where every couple had split up or cheated on each other.

I bet there soon will be unfaithfulness with the Lovedays!

Exactly, one episode to the next things change with couples. How are we supposed to invest in them?

There been quite allot of characters in hollyoaks that have cheated and been unfaithful.

The only characters haven't cheated yet are, Esther, Dylan, Nico, Jason, Cleo and Celine.

So notably the young cast! Peri and Tom haven't cheated. Patrick hasn't. Dr S'Avage hasn't. But generally HO is just full of cheating,and not even in an exciting way but just pathetic and grubby.

Phoebe hasn't cheated has she? Porsche hasn't yet.

It's more to do with couples - with Porsche Lockie has cheated, Patrick isn't with anyone at the moment. Who knows what's happening with S'Avage!

Tom and Peri haven't cheated, but it's not really a "good" relationship. He's controlling and possessive towards her, always thinking he knows what's best for her, currently (as of tonight's E4 episode) blackmailing Cameron to force him to give legal permission for their marriage, even though Peri has already said that she doesn't want to marry Tom. The only others that haven't cheated are Dylan and Nico (Dylan has only been in the village five minutes) and we haven't yet seen Simone and Louis cheat (they've only been in the village five minutes.)

Unbelievable Tilly falls for someone else how fast, breaks up with her girlfriend and leaves with a new lover who she hardly knows.

Yup. by the time he left there were no happy relationships: everyone had cheated and split up. He's worse by far in Hollyoaks. He'll introduce a "love story" where two characters will randomly hook up, then they'll split up over a small misunderstanding, then they get back together, then one cheats, then they split up over something else, then they get back together but the cheater doesn't come clean when clearly offered a one-time pass for forgiveness, then the other finds out and cheats, and all this happens in the space of one month and the viewers are supposed to care about this huge 'love story' that made no sense to begin with and instantly became tedious.

There's no point investing in any relationship/pairing when BK is in charge.

Hollyoaks has become an endless series of infidelity and affairs. It's embarrassing how every couple has cheated. There is no couple left with any credibility.

Kirkwood is like a hyperactive, hormonal teenager with the way he handles the relationships on the show. He jumps from one "epic love story" to the next (Freddie/Lindsey, Ziggy/Tegan, Ste/John Paul etc), ruining so many couples in the process. I have a feeling Nancy and Robbie will be the next "epic love story".

And don't get me started on that nonsense with Cindy and Darren and the beer mats . What actually was the point of that? Why ruin Dirk and Cindy with such contrived rubbish like that ? Darren acting like a complete clown, chasing after Cindy because of some moronic promise they made to each other on a beermat. Embarrassing.

it's ridiculous!! one of the most puerile plots ever!!
Cindy was madly in love with dirk one minute, then she finds her beermat and suddenly starts going all gooey over Darren!

sorry, but any normal adult would say "hey look what I found" and laugh it off as a silly memory!

So annoyed that he's breaking up Cindy and Dirk

I don't mind that there are unhappy couples when there is a genuine reason to be; it's just when they cheat and then suddenly realise this other is who they really want.

I never really brought Lindsey and Freddie as an epic love story cause one minute she is in love with Joe, and then suddenly is in love with Freddie and they also have zero chemistry and Ste and John Paul i never brought either just feels to me that they always just settled for each other and again they have no chemistry, I really think Hollyoaks just isn't bothered about the writing and just throw anyone together now a days and make it out to be an epic love story until they cheat, break up and move onto the next one.

I'm sure HO just has all the male names in one box and all the female ones in another, then a name is picked from each box, and those two people have an affair!
Well it can't be done much differently anyway!

I hate it when soaps rely on affairs so much, but HO has taken this to a whole new level of stupid! How many affairs are currently running right now? Tegan and Ziggy, Grace and Kim, JP and Harry, Diane and Lockie and i'm sure there are more i'm forgetting!
