'Hollyoaks': The best bit from 2011?

Hollyoaks airs its 'Best Bits' special on E4 tonight, so at Soap Scoop we thought we'd get in on the act by sharing our own favourite moment from 2011.

It's been a big year for the show with highlights including the Jacqui/Gilly/Rhys storyline, Brendan and Mitzeee's scheming against Warren, and the various ups and downs for Brendan and Ste - but for us, the standout scenes of the year came in the episode which aired just after Rae's body had been found.

With evil Silas (Jeff Rawle) watching on in satisfaction and the Scala & Kolacny Brothers version of 'Creep' providing the perfect background music, the villagers discovered Rae's murder, Doug (PJ Brenann) lost his temper and Ste (Kieron Richardson) was left devastated…

And just because we found it hard to pick one highlight from the amazing Silas storyline, here's two more that we particularly enjoyed - the serial killer's Halloween showdown with Lynsey (Karen Hassan) where he tried to kill her, and the devastating moment that Silas's family finally discovered the truth and he was arrested…





Hollyoaks Best Bits 2011 airs at 9pm on E4 tonight and sees Alex Carter (Lee Hunter) back on set to present the show alongside Will Best.
