Hollyoaks confirms major Mercedes and Tony twist that no-one saw coming
Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Monday's (June 30) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
If there's one thing you can rely on Hollyoaks for, it's a good twist. And not just any old good twist but one that turns everything on its head.
If you prefer your daily slices of the Channel 4 soap with such twists then you're in luck as Monday's offering of the serial drama serves up quite a big one, with unexpected passion ensuing between two characters.
Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) and Tony Hutchinson (Nick Pickard) shared a bottle of plonk, discussed their emotional journeys over the past year and ultimately succumbed to temptation.
Oh boy.
The pair, who have been romantically entangled before when Tony cheated on Jacqui (Claire Cooper) with Merce, shared a passionate kiss before taking their encounter upstairs.

The moment comes just days after Tony found himself the subject of a very public showdown between Marie Fielding (Rita Simons) – who he was engaged to previously – and ex-wife Diane Hutchinson (Alex Fletcher).
It was looking like sparks were on the cusp of flying for Tony and Diane once again, with both characters having grown closer while supporting Ro (Ava Webster). Who should Tony be with? Diane - they're meant to be!
Marie - they were good together!
Mercedes - two Hollyoaks legends together!
Yes, the stages was set for the ultimate reunion, with even Marie encouraging Diane to give things with Tony another go.
The pub landlady excitedly decided to take a chance on love, cooking a romantic meal in the hopes of winning back her man. More Trending
Little did she know, however, that Tone was over at the McQueens, where one thing led to another with Mercy.
The unexpected passion came after Tony confronted Mercedes over harbouring killer Bobby Costello (Zak Sutcliffe).
Will this unexpected turn of events scupper any hope of Tony and Diane getting back together? Will the soulmates reunite? Or will Tony and Mercedes prove to be more than just a one-night-stand?

Christine McGuinness says she's 'scared' of dating apps as she teases over exes
Former Celebs Go Dating participant Christine McGuinness has shared that she has never used a dating app, with her opening up about her concerns on her Situationships podcast Podcast host Christine McGuinness has shared her thoughts on dating apps after revealing that she's never used one. She's revealed that she's concerned over one aspect, which she said she would be "petrified" of. Christine, 37, has spoken about dating in the years since it was announced that she had split from Paddy McGuinness in 2022. She even briefly took part in the new series of Celebs Go Dating, which is yet to air on E4, and is expected to return in the finale. She's now giving fans an insight into her personal life on the new BBC podcast Situationships with Sophie and Christine, which launched earlier this month. Christine co-hosts the newly launched podcast with author Sophie Gravia. A discussion about dating apps in the first episode saw Christine open up about her concerns. It came after the mention of 'catfishing' and Sophie recalling a date with someone who was "not all all" how she had expected them to look based on the photos that had been on his profile. Christine, who revealed that she's "never been on a dating app," asked: "Do you not think to like FaceTime or check that the person is who they say they are?" Sophie, who's now in a relationship, replied by saying that she would "never do it" and that she hasn't been on dating apps for years. Her co-host Christine then shared: "I would be petrified of who could turn up and who am I talking to and yeah ... no, it scares me." Sophie went on to tell her: "I think they are gonna go out of fashion. I think everyone's getting fed up." Sharing her thoughts, Christine added: "I think it should come with like ... almost like a TripAdvisor ... like a review thing. Maybe like reviews from people's exes or something." After discussing the idea together, Christine said: "Imagine what people's exes would say about them." She teased: "I mean, mine, obviously, would all be five stars reviews." Sophie however admitted that she's treated some potential partners differently to her boyfriend. She said: "How I've acted in the past to certain people because I don't necessarily like them isn't a true representation of how I would act, for instance, to my boyfriend, who I like." Christine said on the podcast: "It's part of the problem. I mean, for me, it's something I've really struggled with is ... the idea of dating and not going well, then how do you get out of it? Cause I wouldn't want to upset somebody." Earlier in the episode, Christine had spoken about dating in the aftermath of her split from Paddy, which was announced three years ago. She told her co-host Sophie: "It took me a while to even think about dating." Christine said she fell into some "situationships" where "friendships had blurred the lines" and then had her first date with someone who she had briefly first met out. She said that they then spoke for months on social media before going on a date. She said: "My first proper date ever, ever in my life, with somebody that I didn't actually know. But I took those months of messaging to feel comfortable." The podcast Situationships with Sophie and Christine is available through BBC iPlayer and BBC Sounds.
