Hollyoaks fans, it seems as if Nico Blake has all the makings of a fully-fledged serial killer.
Which is unsurprising, considering she’s been raised in the very same town dogged by both Gloved Hand Killer Lindsey Roscoe (Sophie Austin) and Silas Blissett (Jeff Rawle).
She’s so far murdered Trevor Royle, Carly Bradley and her granddad, Patrick Blake.
And, in tonight’s episode, it looks as if she’s about to claim her next victim - Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson).
Eep!
In terrifyingly tense scenes, viewers will watch as Nico confronts Maxine over Patrick’s untimely death.
“You killed him, didn’t you?” she asks cruelly.
Hit play for a sneak-peek at tonight’s explosive episode.
The confrontation is a tad confusing, as we all know that Nico was the one who actually pressed a pillow over her granddad’s face.
However it seems as if she's intent on playing twisted mind games with Maxine, bitterly blaming her for everything.
Sienna (Anna Passey) desperately tries to intervene, but, with the chain pulled across the door, finds it impossible to stop her murderous daughter as she picks up her weapon of choice.
Could this really be the end of the road for Maxine?
Well, we know that Nico wants Maxine out of the way after her step-grandmother (complex, we know) found her covered in blood after Trevor’s death.
Speaking to Digital Spy, Persephone Swales-Dawson explained: “Murder is one of Nico’s go-to scenarios whenever there's a problem…
“[And] I think for the right person Nico could kill again!”
Oh dear.
Sounds like the clock is well and truly ticking for Maxine, doesn’t it?
Hollyoaks airs these scenes tonight (June 15) at 7pm on E4 and tomorrow (June 16) at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
