It’s all part of his preparations for a special themed night he’s hosting at The Loft.

James Nightingale (Gregory Finnegan) who has recently grown closer to ruthless club boss Liam, is a little taken aback to see him kitted out in his frightening garb, however the pair of them are soon locked in conversation and realise they have a lot more in common than they ever knew. Could this be a new pairing in the village?

Meanwhile Diane Hutchinson (Alex Fletcher) is still feeling the heat. In yesterday’s episode she was seen looking incredibly jittery when mention was made of traces of blood found on the night of Mercedes shooting.

Elsewhere Jesse Donovan (Luke Jerdy) is getting all excited about the future of his salon thanks to his new neighbour, music producer Toby who has promised he will put some very influential and glamorous clients in Jesse’s direction.

Has Jesse managed to upset new neighbour Toby?

However Jesse is worried that his recent over enthusiastic posts on social media may have got him in trouble with Toby.

Has Toby got some bad news for him and what exactly is Toby’s agenda? He and his partner Celeste seem too good to be true….maybe that’s because they are. Should Jesse be watching his back?

Hollyoaks is shown weekdays on C4 at 6.30pm with the next episode following on E4
