“He’s gonna get a very nasty surprise.”

Hollyoaks spoilers follow from Friday’s episode on E4 at 7.3opm.

Hollyoaks has revealed Blue’s sinister plan for Warren, as the show concluded its final full week schedule.

This week, viewers saw Donny Clark continue his search for gangster Blue. Donny wrongly suspected Ethan of being the notorious villain, even breaking into the flat he shares with his brother Dave, who happens to be the real Blue.

Unbeknownst to Donny, Dave realised what had happened and instructed Rex to kidnap Misbah. Meanwhile, Warren revealed his plan to break out of prison in order to finally escape Blue’s threats.

Last night’s (September 6) E4 episode saw a dramatic close to the week as Mercedes, Ste and Donny joined forces with Grace and Freddie to take down Blue.

“We need all your help to get Warren out of prison,” Mercedes told the group.

“And why on Earth would we do that?” replied Grace.

Donny explained that Misbah was being held captive by the gangster and that they were going to use Warren’s escape as leverage. Once Misbah was safe, Warren and Mercedes would flee the village forever, leaving Grace and Freddie to deal with Blue.

Later, Donny and Mercedes visited Warren in prison and put their plan into motion. Using his former police contacts, Donny managed to set up a riot in the room. He nodded at an inmate who began the chaos, aided by a corrupt prison guard.

The scene featured cameos from comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan, who played the inmate and guard.

Warren easily made his exit amid the riot and was met by a getaway car driven by Ste. As the pair drove away, a figure was shown filming the scene.

“He’s just made the biggest mistake of his life,” Dave told Rex. “The thought of Warren rotting away behind bars, having lost everything, was enough for me. But now he’s escaped, everything’s changed.”

Flicking through images of the car’s licence plate, Dave revealed a shocking plan for Warren. “The car he’s escaped in is almost certainly gonna be the car that he tries to leave in,” he explained. “He’s gonna get a very nasty surprise when he switches the ignition on.”

The episode ended with a shot of a flashing explosive hidden under the vehicle. With Hollyoaks kicking off its three-episode format with a big stunt week, will Warren survive?

Hollyoaks streams first online via Channel 4 each weekday at 7.30pm. Episodes then air on E4 the following day, before getting their YouTube premiere a week after that.
