Never mind New Year, new me. Hollyoaks is proving New Year – same old drama that we know and love.

Following the success of the 30th-anniversary crossover, Liverpool-born actors Philip Olivier and Suzanne Collins are officially reprising their legendary roles as Tim ‘Tinhead’ O’Leary and Nikki Shadwick.

Sparks are set to fly between Liberty and Tinhead this January. However, Sienna’s sisterly instincts suggest he is up to no good. Philip Olivier teased, ‘Tinhead’s got a new fling this time around but he’s also got some unfinished business lurking in the background’.

Nikki Shadwick will form an unexpected bond with Mercedes McQueen while both are staying at a local rehabilitation facility. Suzanne Collins shared her excitement, stating, ‘I couldn’t believe my luck when I saw Nikki has a friendship with the iconic Mercedes. I’ve been floating around on cloud nine with the biggest secret smile on my face’.
