Hollyoaks to air dramatic shooting for Warren FoxHollyoaks will air a dramatic shooting later this week, with Warren Fox once more at the centre of the action.
After being released, Friday's (June 28) first-look scenes will see Warren gunned down by a masked motorcyclist, with Mercedes arriving on the scene to call for help.
As Warren is recovering, Mercedes tells him that Grace wasn't involved in the attack, leading Warren to share that he still loves Mercedes and retains many regrets from their shared history.
The storyline comes as Jamie Lomas prepares to leave the soap for a fourth time overall, with the actor having debuted as Warren in 2006.
The long-running show is facing a major change to its production model following Channel 4's decision to reduce the weekly episodes from five to three.
Channel 4 has renewed Hollyoaks on a multi-year deal which secures the programme's future. However, the decision to shift to three 20-minute episodes per week from September 2024 means that the show will have a reduced number of cast and crew later this year.
Production company Lime Pictures announced the news to all staff on Thursday (February 29), confirming that up to 135 jobs are likely to be lost. A consultation period will now follow as the team await more details.
As bosses will now be taking questions from cast and crew, Digital Spy understands that regular production has been stood down for the rest of the day.
Beyond this, filming will continue as normal on Hollyoaks ahead of the transition from five weekly episodes to three.
Acting executive producer Hannah Cheers has been appointed to the top job on a permanent basis, overseeing the show as it heads towards its 30 th anniversary next year.
