"Hollyoaks" video clip update: Into the sunset?

Well, this is it. It's the final episode of Hollyoaks for John Paul McQueen, but will he survive after the evil Niall poisons his beer?
Um ...... yes.
In the first of today's two clips, Niall is looking self satisified as J.P. looks sickly, but manages to drink gingerly from the beer can. He runs his fingers through his hair and looks rather woozy, as Niall tears into him about thinking of going off to Dublin without a job or any money.
But when they stand up, it's Niall who almost collapses. J.P. then confesses that when Niall was in the bathroom, he accidentally knocked over the beer that Niall was drinking, so replaced it with his own. Which means Niall was the one drinking the poisoned beer.
Okay, I have to give this show big props for even attempting a hoary old chestnut like this (switched drinks!), but they manage to pull it off, and as J.P. leaves and Niall falls to the floor, I felt like Nelson Muntz, pointing and yelling "Ha-Ha!" (But I have to admit, as much as I love him, I think James Sutton might have gone a bit over the top with the whole "Viewers, watch my hands tremble while I drink this can sideways ... HA! you thought I was POISONED!" thing.)
Meanwhile, Craig is still getting the bum's rush from his family (even little Pete Wentz Jr.), but little does he know he's in the middle of a production of "Oh Dad, poor Dad, Mama's hiding you in the attic and I'm feeling so sad".
At the end of the clip, Niall is having a difficult time holding on to his cookies, and this has to be the hottest, sexiest cramping scene ever filmed.
The second clip has Steph finding Niall crumpled on the floor, and manages to save him by ... giving him tea? I'm not sure how Niall manages to survive while Kieron kicked the bucket, but he does manage a pang of guilt about Kieron dying alone, until Steph embraces him, and he puts the mask back on.
J.P. and Myra have a mother-son chat in his bedroom about what Kieron would have wanted, and if J.P. should go with Craig, and when Myra comes back into his room with some tea ... J.P. is gone.
Will J.P. go away with Craig? Find out after the break, where you can see the second clip and take our Hollyoaks poll!
J.P. rushes to the train station, and after some frustration ... sees Craig. He tears into him, telling him how much Craig's hurt him ... and then says, "I wouldn't have missed any of it for the world".
Um ... huh?
Anyway, he says that the one thing he's sure of is that he loves him, and then they kiss ... in front of a sunset poster. Awwww!
J.P. agrees to go to Dublin, and they talk about there being "no guarantees", and then they leave on the train. Both are excited, scared, nervous ... and happy.
I'll hand it over to you guys to debate it, but the only thing I have to say is that I hope that J.P. is running towards something ... and not away from something.
Well, that's it, until next month when we get the big return (which I assume is going to involve Niall getting his comeuppance). Let us know what you think about the sunset ending, and take our poll. What do you think should have happened?
And now the poll:
