H&A: Brax in prison - again. I wish he'd hurry up and leave, this has to be one of the longest drawn out exits I've ever seen in a soap.

ED: Emma trying to get James back. I enjoyed her shenanigans to start with but now I'm just bored of it all.

I like the Zoe twin twist.

For me:

Emmerdale: Vanessa storyline.
EastEnders: Rape storyline.
Corrie: David/Callum & fake Gavin.

Don't really watch Hollyoaks, so can't say.

Yep worst ones for me are

ED - Vanessa. Boring character, tedious story line.
CS - Callum. He's a joke. Sean and the vicar... yawn
EE - The rape story line, the never ending Carter problems and their repetitive scenes
HO - Lindsey and Freddie, the tedious Saint Maxine and Patrick story line, Scott, Sinead, Harry, Ste, John Paul, Tony, Diane, Lockie, Cameron rubbish

HO- Jason lusting after his girlfriend's mum. Two of the few stable and nice couples destroyed. Also Patrick's upcoming bullying of Maxine, JP's doormatness and Lindsey's complete transformation from nice girlfriend to nympho bitch who secretly moves her little sister's twin away because of her own guilt. Does Kirkwood have some kind of bitter complex that makes him punish characters for being good and decent?

The rape due to the screentime it gets and that it involves Mick and has ruined several characters

And

Zoe's twin

Unless it's a still birth which is unlikley I can't buy it and it makes viv even worse sounding of a person.

Hollyoaks "DR" S'avage and his being in every hospital department and not even being a qualified doctor. I think he's the Gloved Hand. I thought it was Kim for a while but now I think it's him. The Hollyoaks hospital has to be the world's smallest ever hospital with one ward for everyone. How can "DR" S'avage be a medical doctor and a psychiatrist as well? I really dislike the character. Also surely people would notice the suspicious deaths from overdosing / poisoning or whatever he's doing? How has he got away with not being a real doctor for so long? I'm aware that there have been "doctors" in real life who've managed to con hospital staff but they do get caught. Mind you there doesn't seem to be many doctors in Hollyoaks hospital to catch him out. He seems to be in charge of everything! It's so far fetched!
Also the Dean raping Linda in Eastenders and all the family shift around as Shirley turns out to be Mick's mother. It's all so messy and has gone on for too long. The person getting the least storyline in her rape is Linda. Most of it's about Mick, Buster, Shirley and Dean. At first I thought it was a good idea to raise awareness but to be honest it's maybe even put off women from reporting rapes to their loved ones or the police because half the family is at war with each other and some of them don't believe her. OK Linda should have reported it straight away but even then it was her word against Dean as he claimed she consented. Yes this happens in real life but it's still been so messy. It does take a long time in real life for people to get over rape but I think we should have seen this affecting Linda with her being nervous of men, being scared to be home alone or going out at night. Instead we've got Dean, Shirley and Buster rubbing Linda's nose in it while Mick goes "nuclear". I think after the attempted arson and Mick nearly killing Dean we should have seen the last of Dean. Then the writing should be for Linda's road to recovery.

In my opinion anything based around Kim (EE). Can't stand the character, the acting or the dialogue. All three leave my unconvinced and without any emotional connection with the character or her circumstances. Can I as if anyone knows a Kim in real life?

ED. Any story with Tracey in, especially concerning the B & B with Val. .Vanessa; can't make her mind up whether to be lesbian or straight; now pregnant at 40 and another boring 'who's the daddy story'.
CS. The Faye underage baby story and the Erica overage baby story.

Lindsey and the nurses work in every single department too! The murders of Rick and Will were recorded as them dying from heart failure caused by their injuries, and S'Avage covered up the real cause of Diane's heart attack to save his job - he'd told Tegan to give her morphine, even though Tegan wasn't qualified to do it. Mariam went through the hospital's files and worked out that they'd been murdered, but

Spoiler


I think he's a red herring though, Hollyoaks loves its shock appeal, and they've made him look so obviously like the killer that no one would be shocked if it were him (except maybe the people insisting it's Celine)

Yes, I forgot about Lyndsey and co treating everyone in the hospital. You could be right about the red herring and it turns out to be someone we would never think of. I doubt it's Kim as she's too obvious as a disturbed woman. Maybe it's Tegan!

EE : Whilst I agree that the rape s/l has gone on for too long, the worst one for me is the Sonia/Martin/Tina love triangle
