It really is isn't it! Especially after the way he left!
Wonder if he got back with Sheila? Will our Claire make an appearance!!

Yes, absolutely @Maid22
I wonder what the back story is? And Billy is in it too, so things could get interesting!

Didn't Claire come on this thread?
It was a real pleasure to hear her side of things and it really annoys me that she is never mentioned in the credits, she was a massive part in the story

Just had a thought, Claire's parents might not have wanted her credited maybe?

Yes the actress who played Claire did pop in, was lovely!
Hopefully she'll come back here!! I wanted to know what her children thought of her being on tv!!!

I was 16 when brookie ended and I taped the last episode & kept it for years! I don’t know how old I was when I first started watching but I remember so many key moments like the gas explosion! Also Tinhead was my first crush!

I haven’t watched hollyoaks in years but I will def be watching this!

We have the same era of watching! I can remember the body under the patio. The incest storyline, the gas explosion and the Millennium club bomb. So I guess I watched from 1995 to 1999. I dipped back in for the bullying storyline and the 2002 siege but I stopped watching again when they took it off week nights.

I googled and think I started 94 sometime as I do remember the Cult storyline with Simon, but before then it would've been on as Mum watched the omnibus

I was an early days watcher, missed a lot of the early 90's as I was working and had a fairly hectic social life ( those were the days!) But I would try to catch the odd omnibus edition.
Tinhead etc I don't really remember, that's why I'm so grateful for the STV reruns, though it will be a while to get there
And now this cross over,
Happy Days

Love this thread! Bit niche, but Billy Corkhill was a reluctant getaway driver at one point, to this day I always say "drive Billy, drive" in the style of Gene the armed robber when I'm accelerating my car..

Today's dropped episodes are brilliant! Spoiler for those who haven't seen them yet...

At first I didn't think I had any recollection of Doreen coming back but when I saw her new hair it triggered a little something in my memory.

Also it stands out a mile when an episode has been written by Jimmy McGovern!

Absolutely! I love all of his works, one of the greatest writers. The last 2 episodes were so good!
Doreen just carrying on as if nothing had happened, very strange!
The last word from Sheila 'COW'

Well I loved Brookside can’t remember when I started watching is as I was 4 in 1982! But I just started from the beginning on Channel 4 and okg they really came out swinging! 3 episodes in and I’m hooked. Glad I get to see these early years now.

Yes, I go through sky to the STV app

It's made a big difference for me, I have quite bad hearing loss, so this is great news

People on the Digital Spy thread are saying the same thing. The next 5 episodes are there for me on Sky Q though

Thanks I thought it was just me!! Hopefully just a glitch if you've got them on sky q ( I haven't got that)
