Sinead takes Freddie and Lindsey hostage in Hollyoaks

Hollyoaks' resident Sinead Roscoe could be getting her own back on Lindsey Butterfield and Freddie Roscoe, as her vendetta heats up.

The young mother, played by Stephanie Davis, has been on an emotional rollercoaster following the death of her baby daughter Katy and split from husband Freddie (Charlie Clapham).

Blaming Lindsey for the latest turns her life has taken – after realising that the doctor is Freddie's true love, while she also failed to diagnose the heart condition that killed her child – she leaves the pair fearing for their lives as she takes them hostage.

But it appears that Sinead has a different plan for Freddie and Lindsey.

Instead, as they confess their feelings for each other, she calls Joe Roscoe (Ayden Callaghan) - Lindsey's fiance and Freddie's brother - who hears everything.

These scenes will screen on Hollyoaks on May 22 on Channel 4 at 6:30pm, with a first look on E4 on May 21 at 7pm.
