Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) is in a bad way in tonight’s special episode of Hollyoaks on at 6.30pm (See our TV Guide for full listings).
In yesterday’s episode Maxine found herself separated from her group of friends on a girls night out in Liverpool.
Maxine was kicked out of the club, where they had been enjoying themselves, when one of the bouncers spotted her drinking from a hip flask.
Tonight, and with no money and no mobile, Maxine has been forced to navigate her way home alone.
However there is horror in store when she is violently attacked.
In tonight’s special episode, titled, ‘The Long Walk Home’ Maxine can’t help blaming herself and starts to examine all the choices she made during the evening.
She goes over and over the events wondering whether she could have changed the outcome by doing things differently.
Meanwhile, in a parallel story, Romeo Nightingale (Owen Warner) who was also out in Liverpool after going looking for his girlfriend Theresa McQueen (Jorgie Porter), travels back to Chester with a hen party who he has met on his journey.
Back in Chester, Diane Hutchinson (Alex Fletcher) turns up at The Dog and joins her brother-in-law, Eric Foster (Angus Castle-Doughty), Tom Cunningham (Ellis Hollins) and newcomer Beau, (Jon-Paul Bell) for a drink.
Discussions in the pub turn to the girls’ night out in Liverpool and it soon becomes clear there is a big difference of opinion which highlights the worries that women face when going for a night out.
