'Hollyoaks' star teases murder plot

Hollyoaks newcomer Jeff Rawle has promised that there will be some big surprises in store on the soap once his sinister storyline gets underway.

Earlier this week, it was announced that the former Harry Potter actor had been cast as a scary new character named Cameron, who will murder student India Longford (Beth Kingston) in a shocking Christmas plotline.

The tragedy takes place after India starts chatting to Cameron over the internet, believing him to be a young admirer, rather than an older man with dark intentions.

Speaking to Inside Soap about the internet danger plot, Rawle commented: "People think that things like this will never happen to them but as we all know, it can go very wrong - and it does for India."

Asked whether Cameron will be caught, he replied: "I reckon the truth will be revealed at some point, but probably not for a while yet. I think the writers want to keep the story running for a little while. Cameron is a very interesting and complex character and there are a lot of massive surprises coming up."

Hollyoaks' series producer Paul Marquess recently said that the new storyline will "highlight the dangers of meeting strangers online".
