Hollyoaks reveals the dramatic twist on Abe Fielding and Perry Lomax’s wedding day. Despite holding Cleo McQueen captive in the flat, Abe is set to marry Perry in December. However, Cleo discovers Abe’s lies and plans to escape next week.
After Cleo passes out in a tense situation, Abe panics when he fails to revive her. He wraps Cleo in a blanket, puts her in the car and eventually throws her body into the river. However, Cleo is luckily found by a passerby on the riverbank, covered in mud. Determined to stop the wedding, Cleo hitschhikes and, luckily, the driver is Pearl, who agrees to take her back to the village.
Meanwhile, at the Lomax house, tensions are high as Perry and her mother, Leela, argue over her disapproval of her daughter’s relationship. Perry is reassured by Marie that Abe is ready at the wedding venue. Perry is devastated when he discovers that Abe has not turned up as planned.
Marie later finds Abe at the apartment, where he confesses to having done “something terrible.” Marie tries to convince her son that marrying Perry will allow him to “start over.” As the wedding is about to take place, Cleo returns in time to stop what is about to happen.
Things continue to escalate as the police begin their investigation, and the McQueen family – Mercedes, John Paul, and Theresa – confront Abe, claiming that he is hiding the truth. The confrontation ends with a stern warning to Abe.
More on the events that will unfold in the December 17 and 18 episodes on E4 and Channel 4.
