You never know what's going to happen.
It's full of surprises you never saw coming.
You never quite know what lies around the corner.
And when the writer's go full tilt, there's no stopping this long-running Channel 4 primetime soap.
"It was my first telly job, and they were all so caring," reflects Sam Tutty who played Timmy Simons on "Hollyoaks" and currently stars in the West End production of "Dear Evan Hansen" as the title character, a role which won him the 2020 Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Lead Role in a Musical. "They really allowed me to make my own mistakes or novice choices, and they were really accommodating. Lovely, lovely people, who can see the joy in what they're creating. The cast and crew are absolutely gorgeous. I miss them all very dearly!"
Like other UK soaps, including "Eastenders," "Coronation Street" and "Emmerdale," 2021 has been a great year for outstanding performances on "Hollyoaks." The cast of returning favorites, newcomers, longtime regulars and younger actors delivered some of their best work in edge-of-the-seat storylines that have garnered applause from viewers round the world and have kept "Hollyoaks" on the top of the rating's charts week after week after week.
