After months of speculation, Hollyoaks is finally set to put audiences out of their misery by revealing who it was that murdered influencer Rayne Royce all the way back in September.
With just about every one of the twenty-somethings in the share house having had the finger pointed at them at one point or another, viewers have been scratching their heads in a bid to work out who it is that really committed the crime.
But the wait is over as all will be revealed next week, with the scenes in question teased in the trailer.
Any last minute predictions? I know who it is but I’m not telling you. I would, however, love to hear your thoughts, so comment below.

The chemistry between Lucas and Dillon continues to sizzle in upcoming scnees, with the two set to grow even closer during a game of football at school. A tackle goes slightly wrong, with the two boys falling on top of one another before gazing longingly into one another’s eyes.
Lucas, as fans know, is confused about his sexuality and Dillon, as ever, proves to be the most supportive person in the world.
Carter, however, starts to target Lucas, despite telling John Paul McQueen that he would refrain from practicing conversion therapy. Lucas is very much in danger but can Dillon, Ste or John Paul rescue him from Carter before the headteacher goes too far?

Hollyoaks is set to kick off the New Year with a bang, with a devastating stunt, two weddings, an affair exposed and three exciting returns.
The Channel 4 soap has proven unmissable over the past few months, with huge storylines reaching their dramatic peaks and others finally getting off the ground, with the festive season proving particularly eventful in this respect.
But this was just the beginning, with 2024 promising to be Hollyoaks’ most memorable year in quite some time and fans couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
Spoiler alert: So am I!
The show’s New Year Trailer, however, has taken this excitement to a whole new level, with January set to change the very landscape of the serial drama as we know it with a horror stunt on the horizon.
If you’ve watched said trailer and are struggling to process all the magnificence that you’ve just witnessed then fear not as I am here to take you through all the big developments, with a deep dive of the three minute extravaganza.
Mercedes’ affair secret is exposed on her wedding day with devastating consequences

Mercedes McQueen will have some serious explaining to do in upcoming scenes when Felix Westwood gets wind of her affair with Warren Fox.
The former Dog landlady, who is engaged to Felix, has been carrying on with her groom-to-be’s best friend for months, with recent scenes having seen her discover that she’s pregnant.
Warren wants to be with Mercedes, who remains conflicted about who it is that she’s got feelings for but, despite her conflict, she ultimately powers through with planning her wedding.
The trailer, however, confirms that Felix finds out the truth – just as he, Mercedes and Warren drive to the venue for the wedding! All hell breaks loose in the car, with tragedy set to ensue.
More on that later.
Rafe dies on his wedding day as Dilly destroys Sienna’s big day?
Sienna’s fairytale ending is set to be snatched away (Picture: Lime Pictures)
Dilly Harcourt spirals out of control ahead of Sienna Blake’s wedding to Rafe, with upcoming scenes set to see her become even more unhinged, worried that beau Rafe is actually started to fall for Sienna, who they’re meant to be conning.
The schemer’s fears come to pass, with Rafe admitting to Dilly that things between them are over on what appears to be his wedding day. Dilly seethes with rage and comes up with a shocking plan, plotting to expose her sordid mission to destroy Sienna to the bride-to-be on the big day.
What’s more, she lashes out in an explosive rage, with Rafe subsequently seen lying unconscious on the floor.
The question is: is he dead? The Earl is terminally ill, that much we know, but will he breathe his last breath sooner than expected courtesy of vengeful Dilly?
That remains to be seen.
It’s also worth noting that Dilly is seen with a locket containing a picture of Patrick Blake. But just how is she connected to Patrick? And is this mystery connection the reason why she wants to destroy Sienna?
A devastating car crash stunt

With the day in question proving eventful for all the wrong reasons, Hollyoaks’ two wedding storylines collide in an almighty car crash, putting multiple lives in jeopardy.
But who will die? And who will make it out alive? This is Hollyoaks we’re talking about here so quite literally anything could happen.
Ste’s fight to save Leah

The wedding day proves devastating not only for the brides but also for Ste, who finds Leah unconscious in a field after drinking at a rave. The concerned dad races against time to save his daughter, who is slipping away in the back seat of his car.
But will he make it to the hospital before tragedy strikes? Or, should I say, before something else transpires along the way?
A dangerous newcomer
With the crash being the primary topic of discussion, no-one notices an unidentified stranger fleeing the scene. But just who is this person?
Well that is the question, isn’t it? All I will tell you is that the person in question has a big secret and they’re set to cause quite a stir later in the year.

Theresa McQueen makes her long-awaited return in scenes previewed in the New Year Trailer but her road back to Hollyoaks isn’t a smooth one, with the fan-favourite set to end up in the devastating collision.
Leela and Joel, who are both present at the scene, recognise her when she exits her vehicle covered in blood, but the bigger shock comes moments later when they identify who is still trapped in the car.
Dancy fans rejoice! Nancy is back

I think I speak for everyone when I say that Hollyoaks just hasn’t been the same without Nancy Osborne and I’m pleased to reveal that she’s back where she belongs in upcoming scenes, with the trailer previewing her return to the eponymous village.
The question is, with so much having happened at the Osborne household since she left, just how will she settle back in at home? And will there be more conflict between she and husband Darren?
The answers to those questions will have to wait a while longer I’m afraid, as the matriarch is somewhat preoccupied when she arrives back, with news of the crash spreading around the village, leaving her concerned about Charlie, who is missing.
