The long haired guy that died twice (Once on a bus if I remember correctly) might show up again - I don't see why not.
Or there could be an Enders crossover. I have it on good faith that the new showrunner there used to run the show on Hollyoaks

Well I would personally prefer it if they kept any Hollyoaks characters well out of it. Just have them show up on Brookie Close, say ‘bye bye’ and just let the old guard show the world of today how a soap opera SHOULD be done.

Was it good?
The Brookside bits with the Brookside characters were quite nice when it wasn’t dealing with the Hollyoaks nonsense of Mick Johnson faking his own death and living in Hollyoaks as someone else. -

So they did go for a crossover episode where an actor from one is also an actor in another (Obviously different roles…but not really!!)
That's awesome.
Only Fools must be up next!

Yes apparently the actor plays a character in Hollyoaks these days so they just made him Mick Johnson under a new name…
Bobby would have loved it though because his namesake was in it. Ricky Tomlinson was back playing Bobby Grant! I hope that he knows about it as I would hate for him to miss out. -

Bobby will be over the moon now that Mr Royale and him off the crapper Cracker episodes are now part of the extended Hollyoaks universe. Bobby loves Hollyoaks

Well that is great for Bobby, but I personally do not love Hollyoaks.
It is all about intellect you see. am an intelligent thinking man, so I prefer Brookside.
Bobby is a bit daft, so it is Hollyoaks that he favours. -

A kind man has uploaded the Brookie bits and cut out all of the Hollyoaks dross, if anyone (such as the gentleman below) wants to watch it.

Bobby will be pleased with that BtM
I don't know who anyone is apart from him off of Cracker but they all seem cosy and so I'm sure that'll bring a teat to Bobby's glass eye

I’ll tell you who they all are. We have…
Bobby Grant
Sheila Grant
Barry Grant
Mick Johnson
Billy Corkhill
Sinbad
Tinhead
And Tinheads missus Herhead
And then we have a few others who I don’t know BUT I am sure are bound to ruffle a few feathers and set hearts a flutter. -

Isn't it a bit awkward for Bobby, Sheild and Barry all having the same surname. I mean it happens sometimes, but ALL THREE OF THEM!
And they live in the same street too

I’m not really sure how it all works to be honest, but somehow it just does. You’ve got to remember that when Brookside was on television back in the 1980s and 1990s, lots of people had the same last name! -

I suppose it was simpler times then BtM. Not like now.
Imagine if your son and his mother and you all had the same name these days.
You couldn't walk down the street!
