'Hollyoaks' boss teases killer storyline

Hollyoaks' series producer Paul Marquess has confirmed that the soap's sinister new character Cameron will be a dangerous presence in the village "throughout 2011".

Earlier this month, it was officially announced that the new arrival will murder student India Longford (Beth Kingston) in a dark Christmas storyline.

India makes contact with Cameron when she experiments with online dating, but her search for love goes tragically wrong when her internet 'admirer' attacks her in a dark and abandoned alley before dumping her body in the woods.

Writing on the official Hollyoaks website, Marquess teased: "Christmas sees the beginning of one of Hollyoaks' darkest ever stories - when a serial killer arrives in the village.

"Choosing an innocent and trusting student as his first victim, this mild-mannered killer is set to wreak havoc in Hollyoaks throughout 2011. Who will be his next victim? And when, if ever, will he be found out?"

Jeff Rawle - who plays the killer - recently promised that there will be "massive surprises" for viewers as the plot continues.

Show bosses have said that they want India's murder to promote the importance of internet safety.
