"Hollyoaks" video clip update: Cold feet?

Today's Hollyoaks clip opens with John Paul still visibly nervous about telling his mother about his engagement with Kieron, but a lot of the clip is about the side stories of Kris and Mercedes.

J.P. goes home to try and tell Myra the big news, but she's too preoccupied with Mercedes to listen. It seems that Mercedes has set herself up on a blind date, with a guy she's been texting (naturally, this will lead to complications later when she discovers she's been texting ... Napoleon Dynamite).

Kris becomes incensed when he's told he can't give blood, and enlists Kieron's help in fighting it on his radio show, and meanwhile, J.P. gives talking to his mother one more shot.

His mother gives him some rational, sensible advice about taking things slowly, and that he and Kieron are at different points in their lives, and says that J.P. should be out there "filling your boots".

Filling your boots? Is that some kind of UK expression? Or is it some horrifying euphemism?

Will Myra's speech have an effect on J.P. and Kieron's relationship, or will they be able to enjoy pre-marriage bliss ... for a few more episodes? The handling of the gay characters and storylines on the show is as good as ever, but it's getting harder and harder to watch knowing that things are going to change. Anyone else waiting for the boots to drop?
