Post image for East of Eden

Following the dubious kissing on Friday, hopefully the Syed plotline will get [...]

ADULT! Hollyoaks Later, E4, 10.00pm

Isn’t regular Hollyoaks brilliant at the moment?

FINALLY! Hollyoaks, Channel 4, 6.30pm
It’s here at last, folks. After patiently waiting for what seems like about twenty thousand years, John Paul is finally going to tell Craig that he’s deeply in gay love with him. And first of all, we’re going to give Hollyoaks some props for the way they’ve handled this storyline thus [...]

HOMO! Home and Away, Five, 6.00pm
