Hollyoaks has marked its 30th anniversary with the return of its late-night spin-off Hollyoaks Later, a one-off special designed to celebrate three decades of the Channel 4 soap's legacy.
The episode revisited familiar faces and long-running storylines while embracing the freedom of its post-watershed slot to explore darker material. Viewers were met with a mix of dramatic set pieces, multiple character deaths and a sensitive storyline involving male sexual violence.
