Dodger's return triggers Cleo in Hollyoaks as secret meeting looms
Dodger's return triggers Cleo in Hollyoaks secret meeting

Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin) and Dodger Savage (Danny Mac) continue their passionate affair in Hollyoaks next week, with a secret meeting on the cards after Dodger returns home from hospital.

Secret lovers reunite

The two fan-favourites embarked on an affair earlier this year after a stolen kiss at the hospital while baby Joseph was recovering. Dodger, who is in a relationship with Theresa (Jorgie Porter), has avoided discussing his feelings for Cleo, but doing so became much more difficult when he moved into the McQueen residence. The pair subsequently started an affair, with Dodger struggling to decide what or who he actually wants.

Earlier this month, the detective was injured while on the job, resulting in him being taken to hospital. Cleo rushed to his bedside and confessed her feelings, desperately hoping he would pull through. Theresa, meanwhile, was not pleased to learn that Cleo knew about Dodger being hospitalised before she did, with Myra McQueen (Nicole Barber-Lane) swiftly trying to cover for Cleo to prevent family conflict.

Return home

Dodger is now thankfully out of the woods and returns home next week. Myra marks the occasion with a family gathering. Cleo, however, avoids Dodger's gaze, still harbouring strong feelings for him. Later, Dodger visits Cleo at work, revealing that he has had a lot of time to think. The question is: what conclusion has he come to?

That remains to be seen, but later in the week, Dodger secretly meets with Cleo again. Is their affair set to continue, or is this the end? Viewers will have to tune in to find out.

Hollyoaks streams Mondays to Wednesdays from 6am on Channel 4's streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.
