Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Tuesday’s (June 11) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on Wednesday June 12 at 7pm.
Kitty Draper (Iz Hesketh) and Beau Ramsey (Jon-Paul Bell) have some serious explaining to do after Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham) caught them disposing of a body.
The duo, as viewers know, were responsible for the death of abusive conversion therapist Declan Hawthorne (Alan Turkington).
Declan, who was Kitty’s father, kidnapped his daughter earlier this year and tied her to her bed in a remote cottage. Back in the village, Beau grew concerned about Kitty’s whereabouts and, after some detective work, he tracked her down to the cottage in question.
Before he could get her to safety, however, Declan returned and attacked Beau, who retaliated by smacking him with his prayer book. Declan fell, hitting his head off the side of the bed, with Kitty pronouncing him dead.
Both he and Kitty resolved to keep quiet, but the guilt has been eating up Beau in the weeks that followed, so much so that Kitty resolved to go to the police and hand herself in.
Beau was adamant that this wasn’t the way forward, with the two deciding once again to keep quiet and attempt to move on with their lives.
But with John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) dangerously close to finding out what they did, Kitty and Beau were forced to return to the cottage and move Declan’s corpse.
Doing so proved incredibly traumatic for them both, as they returned to the village with Declan’s body in the back of the car, unsure of where to put it. Kitty, however, came up with a solution.
Kitty and Beau, covered in dirt, broke down, believing their ordeal to be at an end. But it may only just be beginning, with Freddie stumbling upon the two shortly afterwards, demanding to know what they were up to.
Is the murder secret set to out? Or can Kitty persuade Freddie to keep quiet? The two previously had a connection, so surely Freddie will protect her?
Or will his desire to be a better parent to Lexi see him decide to tell the police?
Hollyoaks streams weeknights at 7:30pm on Channel 4’s streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.
