I agree that it will be most likely Freddie that gets stabbed, it will help bring him and Lynsey closer, plus it will probably be why Robbie will return.
I agree that it too obvious that Danny is talking to his wife,I guessing child or maybe he has a husband/partner. "open relationship"

I agree that it too obvious that Danny is talking to his wife,I guessing child or maybe he has a husband/partner. "open relationship"perhaps, that's the 'dark story'? JP's 'never gonna be the same again' ala Justin on QAF, and have a sexual awakening of sorts? He will be shown the awesomeness of being young and gay and a man and sexually unencumbered - no more trying for that straight 'ideal' of marriage and a baby carriage? He's gonna go to clubs, and have sex in back rooms with randoms, etc? I can totally see James coming on board, psyched and interested to have JP 'explore' all that. this also might hearken back to when he was talking to the baby many moons ago, about Craig, and how he's probably going to clubs, and still awake, but not because he has to, because he wants to, etc... hmm, this could be interesting if it's done right. Could open a lot of minds about homosexuality, too. Especially in light of all the prop. 8 shenanigans.

JP already has the "baby carriage", with Matthew. Unless, they have Matthew stuck up in the attic, along with Theresa's child. I don't know if Chester has any back rooms or gay clubs near the village for JP to explore the life of an unencumbered young gay male.

I don't know if Chester has any back rooms or gay clubs near the village for JP to explore the life of an unencumbered young gay male. yeah, but w/o the man to love and kiss JP wasn't too keen on the baby carriage for a hot minute! they can always go to the city/Liverpool, where Philip Olivier's character used to get down. Speaking of which, why doesn't HO try and get Philip Olivier and his character on to the show? Really, the only way to combat ½-short Super Couple stigma i to pair that significant other with another significant character. Obviously Stephen Billington is attractive, but truthfully, getting a new character off the ground is an uphill battle enough w/o saddling him with JP/Craig's 'super couple' baggage. it will be interesting to see how this all goes...

Exactly how long are people supposed to wait before kissing someone?

Exactly how long are people supposed to wait before kissing someone? well, in Soapland (any kind of writing, really) if the protagonist 'gets what they want' (ie. in the object of their affection's pants) too soon that's usually an indicator that there's nothing 'more' to it, and at that point the audience disengages any emotional investment. usually, at least.

JP didn't even get to finish his comment, before his eyes LIT UP in fascination over that hot new guy. LOL. At times, I wish I could have new hot, availabe and fit guys, just randomly appearing in my life, like on Hollyoaks. But then, they would be revealed to be murders, abusive assholes and users, so I'm not missing out.

Oh JP on a side note, on another forum someone noted that Danny and JP resembled, and they wondered if he could be JP's father. We have seen JP father already right, he was a con man ? I just found that funny it would have been an interesting/unexpected twist

John Paul has the same father as Carmel and Michaela, so he must have been in their lives long enough for JP to recognise him. And yes he was in it before - he stole from them I think.

Shameless did a storyline where Ian fell in love with his half-brother. When they found out they were brothers it was so heart-breaking. I guess if JP's father were a lot older, they could be brothers but I think his dad is to young to have fathered a man in his mid 40s.

If Danny has an open relationshipe, where is the dark storyline? Because they promised a shocking storyline. Yes Jp dated older men, but slightly older, even father kieron wasn't that old in comparision. Anyway, i hope it's something better than the old, he is dating a closeted gay man, because they did that with JP a couple of times.

i just had an idea - what if Danny's someone related to father Kieron or brother Niall, he blames JP for their death, and he's come to get revenge?
imo, the 'Niall's revenge' plot should have ALWAYS been played out in a 'seduce and destroy' sort of way, where Niall got JP to fall for him and then utterly obliterated his life with the REVELATION, etc. LOL

And could create a lot of tension if he finally starts to have feelings for JP

Well, reading the spoilers at least it seems they are not going to walk the violent boyfriend again. That's good. I don't mind JP love interest being a dark character at all, he usually dated good guys (Craig wasn't exactly a nice guy, but he wasn't bad, at least not on purpose). And hopefully he won't be a closet case, JP had enough of that in his past. I don't hold my breath, because Stendan looked really interesting at first, but then it was a total trainwreck, so i hope if Danny is manipulative, controlling or has some sort of "dark" characteristics, it will be played subtletly, well, i hope exactly the opposite of how Stendan was developed (i think i hope in vain, but we'll see)

I said that I hoped that speculation turned out to be false because it wasn't all that different from JP sleeping with Craig whilst Craig was with Sarah but sadly, Stephen's interview seems to support the 'secret wife' theory (well that's how it reads to me anyway). I'm all for JP having a boyfriend with a bit of a dark character and dodgy past, but I hoped it would be something more interesting than said boyfriend being, in the words of the actor who plays him, 'a bit of a shagger'! Hopefully there's a twist somewhere because I don't find any of this particularly 'dark' so far. Also, wasn't there a spoiler article a while back saying that Danny would come to affect nearly every family in Hollyoaks. Now unless he is sleeping with most of the village, I don't see how him cheating with JP will affect anyone else in Hollyoaks. So that alone gives me hope that there's more to Danny than him being someone who sleeps around a lot.

another idea: Danny Lomax is one of those people that contracted AIDS/HIV, and goes around INTENT on infecting people with/spreading it, for whatever sick reason(s). Maybe, that's why HO chose such an attractive actor, maybe, that's how he affects most everyone in the village?, because he is LITERALLY sleeping with everyone...? I can see how JP's life would never be the same when all's said and done... I mean even if in the aftermath he's tested and is found to be negative, the experience itself would leave anyone quite shaken...
that's a fair bit dark, imo...
it is a VERY heavy SL, and I think something that might lure James to return. I mean imagine the ramifications to everything, including McDean. Stuff would be bananas, imo. Everyone in media would be talking about it. It would be THE story of the year...

Oh god, i hate that idea. First of all, i don't like that almost every story about AIDS is linked to a gay character. A lot of people have AIDS, for a lot of different reasons, and making a character with the illness acting that way will be awful, and let the new character with very little redeemable traits. Yes i know they redeem Brendan, but Brendan was a very charismatic character (and they fail in the redemption)
And frankly, if the shocking storyline is JP dating another closet case, i pass. I can't see the interest in that kind of storyline, specially because they did that with JP before. His codependence of Craig was understable, they were teenagers and Craig was his first love. But now he is an adult, to make him dependent of another guy, in a very similar situation, will be difficult to believe
JP didn't have luck with boyfriends, Craig treated him really bad during most part of their relationship, and with Kieron it was all about being secretive during a good while. So if the new one is going to cause him trouble i hope it will be in a innovative way (wich don't include kidnapping, his long lost brother did that).

I don't think Danny will be a closet case if he's in another relationship it will be with a man.
btw, I laughing over the fact that because the actors do have similar features some people are running away with the they could be related theory.It is not impossible, this is Myra we are talking about maybe she had a one night stand that she never give a second thought to, if BK want shocking sleeping with your father is shocking, he have already done brother and sister and cousins.(I don't really believe this)
But I do find it suspicious that they have not put up an official bio. for Danny Lomax as yet,so I think there is more to his background that they are hiding.

Read Danny Lomax character bio, it give no hit that he might have a dark side,so I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Side note:Where did PJ confirm that he'll have no part in Ste up coming story line with Pauline. Are they taking from what he said on Kieron's radio show that he watched Kieron performance from afar.
While I don't think Doug will be a major player in the storyline,once Doug is around he'll be there and I pretty much betting that it will be Ste confiding in him. For Ste and Doug being a plot device relationship the show do insist on showing that when Ste's world is falling apart Doug is the one that always show up or the one he turns too. That doesn't mean that Ste and Doug are getting back together.
btw, everyone keeps harping about why Doug have not brought up divorce, which he should, but there are two people in this marriage why haven't Ste brought up divorce,he was the one involved with another that he wanted to marry, he is the one who said that he never loved Doug.

I'm not so sure, trini. It was a number of things that lead to the strong belief Doug's not involved. Yes, it was PJ saying on the radio show that he'd just seen and heard about Kieron filming the storyline, but there's also the fact he's been back and forth to NY frequently for varying stints the last couple months and hasn't been filming much at all. I also think that with Tony also being a major part of the storyline, and considering he knows Pauline, has cancer like she does, and has been a father figure to Ste in the past, it's probably him taking over the role of confidant for Ste. There's also Sinead and possibly Freddie at this point for them to make people close to Ste at this point. Ste and Doug actually haven't really had much of a good supportive relationship ever either. Doug's tried to be there, but they always end up judging and sniping each other and not understanding one another. It's not like there's ever been any special rapport there. And these days too their scenes are just cringey and forced. I don't know how many times this show needs to repeat patterns with them before they're finally done with it.
And why is anyone bothered about who should bring up divorce and why haven't they before now? Realistically, they'd have done it already. It's the show that decided to pretend it didn't exist and didn't matter, until they had Ste mention it as part of a plot.
