It’s official; Nico Blake is one of the most terrifying soap murderers of all time.
In this week’s Hollyoaks, viewers watched in horror as she murdered her helpless grandfather Patrick Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) by suffocating him with a pillow.
And he wasn’t the baby faced killer’s first victim, either.
The young teen “accidentally” killed policeman Ben Bradley’s daughter Carly just a few months ago.
Could Nico be set to turn into a fully fledged serial killer?
Well, at the moment, police believe that Patrick committed suicide in a bid to escape the pain and helplessness of his Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
If they should figure out that Patrick was, in fact, murdered, Nico has perfectly framed Maxine (Nikki Sanderson) for his death.
But we have a feeling that the truth will eventually come out - and that Nico will kill again to protect herself.
“The darkness inside of her comes out, she just wants to protect herself"
Speaking about what’s next for her character, soap star Persephone Swales-Dawson revealed that Nico WILL kill again.
She told The Metro: “Yes, it’s sort of her go to thing at the moment!
“When there’s pressure, that’s when Nico strikes.
“The darkness inside of her comes out, she just wants to protect herself.
“I do think if the situation got difficult she could kill again.”
Do you think Nico will kill again? And, if so, who do you think will be her victim?
