"Hollyoaks" video clip: The "Rub-a-dub-dub" update

Today's episode of Hollyoaks does what all great drama does: it leaves you wanting more. It takes characters we care about, and puts them in a position that, though implausible, is impossible not to get excited about.

I'm not going to recap it, because there are ... surprises. But I will mention that John Paul and Father Freak-on Kieron have another snogging session followed by an after-shower scene. These scenes, especially the shower scene, are so natural and casually intimate it got me thinking about the supposed upcoming change on As the World Turns. Allegedly, the scenes between Luke and Noah are going to become more "intimate" starting next week, and it'll be interesting to compare their idea of intimacy to shows like Hollyoaks and Forbidden Love. (Which we of course plan on doing, frame-by-frame.)

You can see today's Hollyoaks clip after the break, and go here for a preview of where things pick up next week (thanks to reader dkellergrl2001 for the heads up about the preview).
