Hollyoaks legend returns to soap NEXT WEEK – a year after he quit show for movie career
A HOLLYOAKS legend is returning to the soap next week a year after quitting for a fresh challenge.
We revealed earlier this month how Jamie Lomas, who plays villain Warren Fox, had temporarily returned to shoot dramatic flashback scenes.
Now the air date has been revealed and it will be Monday, April 7.
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the soap’s casting list for shows airing between the 7th and 9th and it features Jamie’s name.
One wrote on a fan forum: “WARREN FOX IS BACK IN THE HOUSE!!!!!! SOOOO EXCITED FOR THE FLASH BACK EPISODE.”
Jamie, 49, spent nearly two decades on the soap before leaving last year.
Viewers watched his criminal character flee abroad leaving lover Mercedes McQueen behind with her children.
Since his exit, Hollyoaks has flashed forward a year to help with a major cast shake-up.
Last year the soap was cut from five episodes a week to just three and some 135 jobs were lost.
In that time, things have changed beyond all recognition for Warren’s loved ones.
Mercedes has been battling bowel cancer, and his son Joel has suffered a relapse and fought against his evil brother Abe.
A source said: “Hollyoaks bosses promised to revisit the missing year and what better way than to welcome back Warren for it.
“It was too good an opportunity to miss and Jamie jumped at the chance.
“He loved his time on the show and he was more than happy to return for an appearance.”
The flashbacks will feature Mercedes’ diagnosis and the early days of her cancer battle, as well as Joel succumbing to his heroin addiction.
Warren’s storyline is under wraps but viewers are keen to learn what happened to him after his exit.
Away from the soap, Jamie has been cast in British comedy flick Jackie The Stripper, which also features Katie Price.
He plays the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper in the dark caper which is set in Whitechapel in 1888 as well as the present day.
From Hollyoaks to Hollywood
James Corden played a caretaker in the early days of the soap.
The former American TV host doesn’t have much positive to say about his time on the soap, claiming it was “hell on earth.”
Since his short-lived time on the show he has gone on to bigger things including smash hit comedy Gavin and Stacey.
Rachel Shenton joined the soap as aspiring glamour model Mitzeee Minniver in 2010.
Over two years her character was sent to prison, got pregnant and had a number of romantic affairs.
Since leaving Hollyoaks she has won an Oscar for best live action short film, The Silent Child.
Rachel has also starred in White Gold and All Creatures Great and Small
Emmett J. Scanlan played gangster turned anti-hero Brendan Brady.
Emmett played the love interest of Steve Hayes, with their romance delighting fans until it turned violent.
Since his departure Emmett has appeared in Peaky Blinders, The Fall, Gangs of London and even appeared in Guardians of the Galaxy
Emma Rigby joined Hollyoaks when she was 15 as Hannah Ahsworth.
Hannah’s eating disorder storyline was the first of it’s kind on TV while other plots included being caught in a fire, gangland drug dealing and running away.
Since leaving the soap in 2010 Emma has gone on to star in ABCs Once Upon a Time in Wonderland as the Red Queen. Other roles include guest appearances in Death In Paradise, Ripper Street and Fresh Meat
Nico Mirallegro got his big break with Hollyoaks starring as emo Barry ‘Newt’ Newton.
Nico’s main storyline in the soap was developing schizophrenia which culminated in a suicide pact.
He left the soap in 2010 and went on to star in My Mad Fat Diary, Our Girl, Rillington Place, The Ark and Common, Penance, as well as the Mike Leigh movie Peterloo and was nominated for a Bafta for his role in period drama The Village.
Ricky Whittle used Hollyoaks as a stepping stone to break America.
He played one of the soap’s resident hunks, Calvin Valentine, from 2006 to 2011 – when he was killed off at his wedding.
After leaving the soap Ricky cracked America starring in teen drama The 100 and America Gods.
He also appeared in Strictly Come Dancing in 2009.
Warren Brown joined Hollyoaks in 2005 for a year as evil Andy Holt.
His stint on the show consisted of date rape storylines and a crime spree, before eventually being killed off.
After leaving Hollyoaks, Warren became a big hitter in TV playing DS Justin Ripley in Luther, as well as major roles in a number of dramas including Liar, The Responder, Homefront and Good Cop.
Wallis Day played Holly Cunningham in the soap for years before leaving.
In 2021 Wallis won the role of Batwoman in DC’s series, taking over from Ruby Rose.
I’ve swapped my tiny UK flat for holidays in homes all over the world from California to Paris – it has saved me £1000s

The fact that everyone on the site is swapping too creates trust and you can always turn requests down – I wouldn’t swap with anyone who had anything less than 5-star reviews from their previous swaps.
It is also possible to arrange non-reciprocal swaps using the website’s
internal credit system.
For example, if I knew I was going to be staying with family for a week
I could let my home out for GuestPoints.
Then I could use that balance at a later stage for a trip of my own to any of the properties on the site who accept GuestPoint exchanges (some people are home swapping purists and won’t swap this way, preferring to stick with direct reciprocal swaps).
In the year since I began home swapping, I have taken more trips than ever and saved lots of money in the process.
Having access to home comforts brings the costs of travel down even further – no need for checked baggage when you have laundry facilities.
Local help
You can be more selective about your meals out when you have a fully stocked kitchen at home – hosts are happy for you to use
ingredients in their cupboard to cook with. Having local experts to message is helpful, too.
In the South of France, my host told me about a couple of nearby bakeries which gave away free bread and pastries from 4pm each day.
But the main benefit is the time you can spend somewhere. Once you remove daily accommodation costs, the trip reduces to simply the price of flights and whatever you spend on the ground once you’re there.
With working from home becoming increasingly common, many home swappers prefer to exchange for weeks, or months, at a time.
This allows you to really get to know a place and move at a more relaxed pace than you might as a tourist with only a handful of days to play with.
Doing a home swap also takes the sting out of returning home after a lovely holiday.
Every time I have returned home from a swap, my place has been spotlessly clean.
It is also customary for guests to leave a small gift behind from their country.
A nice welcome home and a reminder that my flat hasn’t sat empty in my absence. Instead, it has been enjoyed by travellers just like me, making new memories.
What should you look for in a good travel insurance policy?

- Medical expenses – A good policy will give cover of £1million or more for travel in Europe and £2million or more for the USA
- Repatriation service – The costs of getting you back to the UK for medical reasons should be covered automatically by your policy
- Cancellation and curtailment – A good policy will cover you for £2,000 or more if you have to cancel or shorten your holiday
- Missed departure – Covers additional accommodation costs and travel expenses up to £500 or more if you miss your flight due to circumstances out of your control
- Delay – You’ll usually be covered for £250 or more if your travel plans are delayed due to circumstances out of your control
- Baggage cover – Covers you if your baggage is lost, damaged or stolen. Look for policies that have cover of £1,500 or more.
