Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Tuesday's (May 5) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 at 7pm.
Sienna Blake's (Anna Passey) sins finally caught up with her as her horrified loved ones made the devastating decision to report her to the police after a series of grisly discoveries. The much-loved show favourite, as viewers know, is no angel, having always skirted the line between light and darkness due to a difficult upbringing at the hands of patriarch Patrick (Jeremy Sheffield). But despite her past misgivings, she has spent the better part of a decade attempting to make amends for her dastardly deeds, becoming a well-liked and valued resident of the village, who has won the heart of just about everyone she crossed paths with in recent years.
The discovery that Patrick's twin brother Jez (also Jeremy Sheffield) was her biological dad, however, ultimately changed everything, setting in motion a dark descent, with Jez proving to be a full-blown serial killer. Jez's penchant for darkness certainly influenced Sienna, who later killed husband to be Ethan Williams (Matthew James Bailey) – on their wedding day – and pushed nemesis Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix) to her supposed demise.
Following the latter incident, Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin), who was diagnosed with postpartum psychosis just months ago, was appalled to discover that not only did Sienna claim Clare's life but that she lied about it, claiming Cleo did it. Sienna has been tampering with Cleo's medication and using her mental health against her for weeks, in the hopes of making her believe that she needs to rely on Sienna for everything, but Cleo worked out what she was up to and confronted her this week.
After a showdown, Sienna admitted to her crimes, telling Cleo that she desperately wants to go back to the way things were. Cleo, however, made it clear that such a thing wasn't an option – at least not without her taking accountability for her actions. Working out that Sienna also killed Ethan, Cleo urged her to go to the police, but Sienna managed to convince her to come to the allotment first so that she could complete the floral arrangements for Ste and Rex's upcoming wedding.
In dramatic scenes, Sienna claimed that Cleo doesn't love her any more and a grim showdown ensued – with Cleo falling to the floor and hitting her head. Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas), meanwhile, uncovered the truth about Clare's 'demise', informing Dodger Savage (Danny Mac) that Sienna was the one to blame – not Sophie or Cleo.
When Dodger arrived at the allotment and called for back up, Sienna fled the scene, hoping Warren would help her get out of dodge. Instead, enraged Warren drove her right back to the village, where she was taken away by the police in front of everyone. Warren told her that he'd see her 'in hell' but Sienna made it quite clear that she'll see him before that, hinting that she's got unfinished business that needs dealing with.
The question is: have we actually seen the last of the almighty Sienna Blake? Or will she be staging a comeback in the future?
