"Hollyoaks" video clip update: SPLAT!

As a change of pace, we're presenting this two part Hollyoaks clip, even though it doesn't feature John Paul. But it does have Kieron playing a major role, and it showcases his compassion and climbing ability (or lack thereof).
If you're not familiar with Hollyoaks characters outside of the McQueens, some of these people may be unfamiliar, but the main thing you need to know is that the character of Ste is a scuzzy scumbag. He's a thuggish delinquent who bears a striking resemblance to a ventriloquist dummy, and has finally gotten his comeuppance for beating up his girlfriend, Amy.
Kieron is settling into his new job as bartender, and as he points out, it's not that different from being a priest. He still listens to people, and they still confess their sins to him. The only difference is, instead of doing four Hail Mary's afterwards, you do four Bloody Marys! (That was horrible ... I'm so sorry.)
Ste comes in and Kieron does his best to offer advice, but this is one charity case he should've stayed far away from.
In the second clip, Ste tries to cajole Kieron into helping him get Amy back, but when Kieron balks at the idea, Ste does the only thing he can do to prove to Amy that he loves her.
He climbs some scaffolding and threatens to jump.
Kieron climbs up after him, but his fear of heights and general climbing ineptitude are evident (and this instantly shoots down my "Kieron on a trapeze" fantasy).

What happens next I'll leave to you, but I just have a couple of thoughts about this episode. We all know that Kieron will be leaving soon, and the more I think about it, the more I realize what a void his absence will leave. To me, he is Hollyoaks' conscience. Unlike almost everyone else, I don't think there's a spiteful bone in his body, and the show needs characters like him to balance out people like Ste and Niall.
And one more thing ... for some reason they have Kieron in the most hideous, unflattering, shapeless blob of a blue shirt. It looks like half a muumuu.
You can see the second clip after the break, and we'll keep you updated.
