  • It's amazing that after almost 1 year, the moment that John Paul see's Craig first time he looks like he is about to hyperventilate. It just goes to show you that even though he's with Kieron now, engaged to be married and loves Kieron. He is still and probably always has been in love with Craig Dean. They always belonged together even though Craig put JP through so much, you can't help who you fall in love with.

  • yeay! Craig's back!!!

  • i cant lie..after ALL craig has put jp thru, after all the denial and bullshit compared 2 sweet, selfless kieron...I STILL PREFER CRAIG!!! ARRGGHHH! i think i know how jp mustv felt poor bastard!

  • ugh Craig.... I like Kieron more!

  • WHAT THE HELL JP!!! just stick with kieron!!

  • i love how john paul looks like he could pass out just from the sight of craig <3

  • Ugh, I hate how all of the sudden Keiron is being made out to be the nice, sympathetic loser just to make way for Craig. If you ask me, Keiron had way more chemistry with JP then Craig did. Not to mention Keiron always treated JP right. Just like JP said... Keiron wanted him back.

  • @guidinglightismylife The problem is JP didn't want the nice guy and once the affair with Kieron was out and K decided to leave the Church to be with him (hardly a difficult choice, cos he was a crap priest LOL), JP felt obliged to make it up to him somehow.

  • @VariahR I don't think that's true at all. It was clear that the actors were playing JP and Kieron being madly in love until James decided to leave the show. Then after that, since Brian decided Craig and JP should get their "sunset ending", he had the actors totally change courses. Up until James decided to leave it was clear the Craig was the last thing on JP's mind and that he was totally devoted to Kieron because he loved him, not that he felt guilty.

  • @guidinglightismylife Madly in love? LOL Where was JP big declaration of love? We had nothing like his all consuming feelings when , for example, he was at Hannah's party and declared he loved Craig. I knew K was madly in lust with him, but the there was nothing as consuming as JP and Craig. Plus, JP said many times how K had given up his life in Church for him, there was a part where the "guilt" target was stamped in his forehead. He felt guilt and he wanted to make it up for K. Is that love?

  • @VariahR Well obviously we disagree. I really saw the love between JP and Kieron and don't think it had anything to do with guilt.

  • @guidinglightismylife I'm not saying JP didn't love Kieron. Hell, he said he even loved Spike LOL (I loved Spike's character btw), what I'm saying is...it was NOT the all consuming love he felt for Craig. He never felt any doubts about it, whereas with K he used to say as they started the affair "I THINK I love him" and to Hannah that no one would ever be like Craig, but what was the use in crying over his photo album? And after they slept together for the 1st time he dismissed K. Always unsure.

  • @guidinglightismylife Then, of course, he miraculously, changed his mind (after a soap blackhole) and decided to move on. See? There was love and caring, but it felt always restrained from the beggining (like he said on Kieron's grave...something was missing from the start). But he loved him yeah.

  • @VariahR Well yeah, not every love is going to be the same. What JP and Kieron had was completely seperate from what he and Craig had, and they became just as popular. Their relationship wasn't given the time to grow like McDean's was.

  • @guidinglightismylife You're spot on. Mcdean had a great build up and aftermatch, maybe that was why I got so invested in their storyline.

  • @VariahR I do agree with that. In fact, I was on the McDean train until Kieron came around. Jake and James just had a really sweet chemistry. Their story was more romantic (but still sexy). Given time I think they'd have become just as big as McDean.

  • @guidinglightismylife - Yeah, they always mention JPC as HO's biggest gay stoyline as if Kieron never existed in JP's life. Must be annoying. 

  • @VariahR Yeah, but that's just how it goes, I guess. Kieron was definitely the Reid Oliver of Hollyoaks.

  • @guidinglightismylife At least JP and Craig had a happy ending, whereas Luke and Noah's had only an ending. I'd be pissed off if after being invested in a storyline for years (Luke and Noah started in 2007, right?)my favorite couple ended up apart. Thank God I wasn't their shipper LOL Can't watch american soaps! Eww

  • @VariahR Oh god, I know! I'm FROM America and I won't even watch them anymore. LuRe ended up being way more popular than Nuke though. They always blew away Nuke in polls. Most Nukers jumped ship and LuRe also attracted new viewers.

  • CRAIG IS BACK, BITCHES!

  • aaah...craig! T_T *drool*

  • It's sooo cute when they see each other again.

    I feel bad for Kieron too, really. I just keep telling myself he's too good for JP though, lol. JP and Craig are both flawed, but they really belong together.

  • ahhhhhh jp ur an idiot!

  • I feel so sorry for Kieron. He gave up the priesthood for JP? Not worth it in my opinion. JP always had Craig on his mind. You see all the things that Craig did to JP, JP's doing to Kieron like the wedding proposal and the jealousy (when he though K fancied Kris). Kieron was an awesome priest and he gave it all up for this dude. No offense.

  • oh god ! :)

    Craig looks SO HOT ! (L) :)

  • Btw, crumpetsandjam, thank you for putting all these eps up in good quality! I watch 'em all the time (still, sadly :). You're amazing.

  • Craig is striding through town like an outlaw, isn't he? I love the way that they began with his feet, this whole 'okay, I'm like this since you last saw me.'

    I wish that JP's daydream at the start had been real. Kieron wasn't trying to trap JP, he was just excited about having someone - he did tell JP back in January that he got lonely and depressed.

    Love how Craig comes in just as Kieron leaves. And that little look they exchange; Craig is VERY pleased to see him.

  • And JP is literaly breathless the minute he lays eyes on Craig again. The shots from their faces were awesome!

  • I can't believe how many pple think that JPC should be together because JP and C was each other soul mate. What about Keiron. JP was Keiron soul mate. What JP said in his dream about getting caught up in the moment because K gave up his priesthood for him. JP should have thought it through. I hate the way JP was treating, stringing him along making him think that they had a future. I wish Niall had killed JP instead. Even to the end of Keirons life he was still fighting for JP

  • JP is a heartbreaker indeed!! :P

    Just because he treated JP right...it doesn´t mean JP would fall head over heels in love with him. It happens in real life all the time. JP loved Craig more...he always knew that. And, yes, he messed things up with Kieron, but...at the end...he´s 19 years old. He´s immature and didn´t want to hurt Kieron. But he did...either way. That´s why he felt so guilty after K´s death.

  • After JP/C break up, I was gutted. Then as I watched JP/K storyline, I began to feel that K is the one for JP cos he always seemed to treat him nice, he's playful, loving, intimate and affectionate twds JP. However, the minute I saw C, and how matured, confident, assured and gorgeous he looked...I wanted JP in Craig's arms again, for good! And when I heard Craig's soft voice again . I love Kieron, I wished for a better end for him but I really love that Jp's back with his true love, Craig.

  • I agree with you totally. You can really tell the way that Craig matured and became confident in himself. It was wonderful to see them together again.

  • Y'know, I was so drawn in by the JP&C storyline from the beginning, but when I watched the JP&K storyline--from first meeting, to K dropping the priesthood, and now knowing how it all turns out in the end--I really, really wish they could've had a more amiable ending for Kieron. He was such a nice boyfriend! Of course JP&C were always meant to be together, and I love Craig, but I wish Kieron hadn't had to die for it to happen because he was such a sweet person. (And kinda hot.) (OK, really hot.)

  • i just realised the last shot u had of craig in 2007 were his white trainers and the first scene of craig in 2008 were his white trainers.

    i am sooo slow! lol

  • ohh...I´m slow too then :P

  • quite ironic JP doubts Craig comes back

  • I really randomly didn't see any of the promotions for Craig's return..then I watched this episode and OMG. Floating on cloud nine. Happiest episode of Hollyoaks ever.

  • Okay i now what to do McDean Forever !

  • I no how jp feel I mean I love Craig and I love Kieron too so what I could do !

  • ok, i'm kind of lost here....there's no videos telling what happened with kieron and jp?!?! i only watched until kieron comes back after attempting to leave...

    what happens next? is there too much to watch before this, when craig comes back???

  • Yeah, you need to watch all the videos after kieron comes back up to this point.

    Its very important.

  • CRAIG!!!! omggggggg. I've missed him so much.

    Good looking bastard that he is. *cuddles him*

  • from the love of god, i think im going to call jp asshole, cuz he turned Keiron down, sign*

  • are you serious...it's a good thing that jp turned keiron down...jp should have never proposed marriage just like Craig should have never proposed to Sarah...

  • Finally, i wish kieron and john paul left when they were going to.

    Kieron wouldn't have died.

    and craig wouldnt find john paul.

    but if he did, jp would be with kieron, happily.

    :(

  • this is a weird movie. no of.

  • the look on jp's face at 9:06 is like something is tearing him inside ,like he's gonna fall apart.........and craig just pleased to see his true love!

    McDean forever!!!!

  • OK...... WHY does Niall know what was on Opra??? ( 1:53 )

    He still have time for TV with all the plotting and lookin sexy???

    Omg, he's a MULTI TASK GOD!

  • YAY, GRAIG IS BACK:)

  • OMG CRIAG!

  • kieron was sooo boring and he turned jp boring to rememba the days of spike and his jj sruff, hated the kieron kept saying to jp rememba wat ive given up 4 u. like he forcin jp 2 b wid him

  • hehe i like the slight irony in the fact JP is the closest to saying 'I love you' directly to Kieron (at least to my knowledge) in that little dream thing.... lol. OMG even though theres such a distance between the two, the sparks are crackling! Compared to JPK... :P Poor Kieron though... I miss the N/JP/K house interaction.. that flats empty.wonder what theyre going to do with it... haha "I bet you didnt think hed fall in love again after last year" then DUNDUNDUN last year comes to MOBS. hehe

  • Wow "You´re so nice and understanding...it drives me mad" - what a declaration of love, JP!! hahaha And then comes Craig, the not so perfect one and JP´s is lost in his Bambi eyes again.

  • are john paul and craig finally together now?

  • Yes. John Paul and Craig had their "Sunset Ending" and left for Dublin together. However, when Craig guest starred on Hollyoaks Later he revealed that him and John Paul were having problem because of John Paul staying out all night and drinking because he was finding it hard to cope with Tina being killed and finding out that Niall actually murdered Keiron. I think they need to bring back both of them to the show and fix things.

  • it would be a ghost story then

  • No bring back John Paul and Craig to show that their relationship is fixed or make a mention of it.

  • yea...I started to watch this show only because of JP...kow his gone and I donno wha to do...JP coommee baaackkk... :`(

  • Craig is even million times hotter when he comes back .how can one resist him?

  • ok wtf John Paul, either ya wanna get married or ya dont...honestly i dont blame kieron for getting mad after all he gave up for jp

  • aww kieron looks like hes gonna have a breakdown and cry!

  • OMG!!!! From 8.51 it's only about Craig :-D

    Kieron is forgotten in a instant. The looks between them in those moments say everything we were hoping our SE to be. Only Craig and JP look at each other like that. Neither of them has had this with anybody else.

    Craig looks so great, and at peace with himself. I love John Paul but I LOVE Craig ;-)

  • just love Craig's entrance!

  • hey, i just watched this part so can anyone pls tell me what are they hiding upstairs? why are they not letting Craig go there? and also is Sarah still on the show?

  • They're not letting Craig go up there because Jack is up there!! Sarah is still on the show. Elliott just finished with her!

  • If you look carefully on 19/09/08 the photo John Paul looks at of him with Kieron was taken on this day!

  • i guess i'm the only one here who's not THAAAT excited about craig's comeback!!i just love kieron.he's a good guy and doesn't deserve to be dumped:/

  • NO offence to McDean lovers, they did make a great ending. Writers are doing well again!

  • Kieron = John Travolta

    John Paul = Olivia Newton-John

    Hilarious :D

  • OMG Craig is back! I had no idea, I'm so behind...

    I'm so happy I could cry. Kieron was cool but please, bring on the MCDEAN SUNSET ENDING!

  • i am so glad that Craig is back him an jp go well together and Craig is so hot and i can't wait to see what happens between Craig and jp

  • I would be more sympathetic toward Kieron if he didnt resort to emotional blackmail everytime he sensed things arent going well fo him and JP.

    Kieron: JP can you go get some milk from the shop please?

    JP: Im busy cant you go?

    Kieron: I gave up the preisthood for you.

    JP: All right, i'll get it.

    I think you catch my drift.

  • @TinyWeeThing

    Sounds like a legitimate protest to me.

  • omg x 22 trillion times.... feel soz 4 kieron, but mcdean 4 ever

  • omg omg omg omg...that's all I can say. JP looked like he got hit by a truck when he saw Craig.

  • Im so happy Craigs back!!! Ive watched this episode and the next one over and over! I cant help it... McDean forever!!!

  • oh my god! they way they looked each other at the end was HILARIOUS! ALL THE MONEY!

  • Kieron is thinking of asking Niall to be his best man...?

    Isn't the best man supposed to throw the groom a bachelor party... and NOT into an early grave?

  • I love JP and Kieron, I really do, but how many times is Kieron gonna throw leaving the church into John Paul's face. John Paul didn't force him to do it. Plus, as a former priest, Kireon should be understanding of JP's feelings of doubt, but when its your own heart on the grill, understanding and reason go out the window I guess.

  • I think he threw that twice - saying he assumed they thought about things through before he left the church and then again when he's doubting JP. I wouldn't say that he's being unfair but I didn't expect that from him either. But the poor boy's being lied to and he knows it. He would've understood JP's cold feet if JP told him sooner and in a more sensitive way I think.

  • Yeah, I agree with ya there, sirtimofie. Plus it doesn't help to say you have cold feet when your former first love is in town as well. Poor Kieron. I'm nervous about how all this is gonna play out since the actors playing both JP and Kieron are leaving. I live in the States, so I can't get to the Hollyoaks official website. Watch and see...

  • The thing is...JP is 19, they were dating for 2 months. K was crazy to answer "let's get married" with anything other than "are you mad?" in the first place.

  • ok, so when craig said he'd been seeing someone in today's ep... place your bets people, guy or girl?

    also ahem SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! MCDEAN FOREVER!

  • Okay when I say a tiny bit I mean extremely excited, so much so I've watched this episode about 10 times in 2 days :D

  • Now I understand a lot of things with this JP & Kieron wedding "idea". The problem is to do this step like you depend on the other. Just look at Kieron... older than JP, but somehow he depends on him... emotionally at least. On the other hand, he left the church... and yes, this is something really big. But just think about maturity. Neither JP nor Kieron have enough maturity for a wedding. It's just a "fancy thing"... coming from both sides. The thing is that, sometimes, "love" is tricky.

  • OK. I'm not sure how many times i have watched it? Can't get enough of it!!!!

    AH!! Craig is so mature (and suddenly Kieron looks so immature). Enough with all talking and eyeing, we need a real romantic intense McDean Scene.

  • Teehehe

  • Damn....Craig looks HOT!!!!

  • Okay, i got a tiny bit excited when Craig got out of the cab, MCDEAN FOREVER.

  • ah, me too! he looked like Shia in the Indy Crystal scull, with the leather and the stubble...

    Aahh..Craig 4 evah!

  • A tiny bit? I got way excited!

  • I do feel sorry for Kieron but Im happy that its not Craig or John Paul being killed off! The moment I saw Craig return I felt sooooo happy and he seems to have matured a lot as well. Plus the hug at the end of the episode where he tell JP he just wants him to be happy melted my heart!!!!

  • greeeeeeeeat! [/sarcasm] sorry. don't get me wrong, do like craig and i was a mcdeaner for ages but i can't help but feel kieron is getting ever so slightly screwed over...i mean we all know what happens at the end of the week. it all just seems too coincidental and unfair really...

  • in case someone didn't get the memo... CRAIG'S BACK, HE'S BACK!! YESS

  • I could control myself rather well until he spoke the first words to Frankie. Omg! He's really back! He really is!

  • maybe it is just me but I really feel heartbreak for Kieron.

  • me too :(

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

    ive waited for this for so long. lol

    pretty sure i nearly fainted when Craig appeared.

    finally.

    yayyyyy!!!! made my day/week/year.

    =]

  • JP is being a real idiot. He deserves a big fat slap on the face. I mean, I get that he's 19 and he's getting cold feet about all the rush on the wedding issue but like Kieron said, HE's the one that proposed.

  • I hope they give Kieron a fair ending. He is such a sweetheart, he deserves it

  • Niall kills him on Friday! :D

    Poisons him while JP and Craig are 'falling into each others arms again'

  • Okey that will be an interesting episode to watch. Thanks, I was wondering how they would do it. Though I love Kieron, JP and Craig belongs together. I can't argue with that :)

  • why does he poison him?

  • because he's jealous that he gets to be part of the family

  • He kills him because Kieron found out that the baby Myra gave away, who he has been trying to trace, was Niall. TOnight of course, we see him make that discovery. He tells Niall he knows. Niall kills him to stop him telling Myra.

  • I can`t stop squeeing.....aahh

  • Iiiiik!!!! i'm so happy!! :D :D :D :D :D :D

    gaaash, this is unbelieveable xD

  • omg am so happy right now!!! was actually screaming at the telly when i watched it yesterday :cP bring on the love again!

  • what is steph talking about when she's talking to Kieron? I meen I know she's lost max but has he loved and lost too??

  • She's talking about John Paul. Saying he probably never thought he'd fall in love again after what had happened last year (with Craig). For her, JP apparently being able to move on after what happened with Craig, makes her think it's ok for her to move on after what happened to Max. O

  • I love the look on JP's face when he looks up and sees Craig standing at the checkout counter. He gets that look like "OH MY F**KING GOD!!!" it's priceless. I feel bad for Kieron though, he is so sweet and cute, he doesn't deserve what's coming.

  • Ahhhh CRAIG!!

    But JP is being such an ass towards Kieron here :O

    But anyway if that leads to McDean then Woohooo!!

  • oh hell yah can't wait too see craig an jp back togther

  • OOOMG CRAIG!! i'm so excited i had to leave another comment!!

  • Craig is so hot!!! Kieron looks dumpy next to him.

  • :( Poor kieron

  • That was a wonderful beginning of the JPC reunion and their future life together. Craig has come back, hotter, more mature, unselfish, in love, ready to claim his man. As soon as JP sees him, he knows his world is upside down again....

  • are you going to post all the new ones. cause the internet is the only way i have to follow the story and i was so exited to here jp and craig might finally get back together.

  • hmm Craig needs to put on a cardigan muy pronto! He looks so morbid in all black.

  • Yay!!! Craig has returned. i m in Singapore and so it's 2nd Sep here. Yesterday, i was like "OMG!!! i wish the day past fast". And thanks you for uploading it quick. (btw, my bf told that i didn't get that excited and happy when he came back from London :P)

  • 2,237 views already!!

    I have waited for this for soooooo long, and it was not what i expected, it was a MILLION times better!

  • Kieron and Jake are really breaking my heart...

  • Its like 4am here, and I screamed dead loud then :|

    I nearly passed out, that smile was YUMMY.

    I love themmmm.

    All of them :( I don't want Kieron to get hurt but I love JP and C :(

  • who is it that john paul gets a call from...its bugging me that i cant tell. the way craig makes john paul feel is so much stronger than wit kieron...and he's so much cuter than kieron!!!

  • It said "Kieron." It is just e bit hard to see. : )

  • *a of course...

  • Yes--the writers are recycling the pattern of Craig getting phone calls from Sarah.

  • Yeah and their hug at the end of this episode echos a hug they had sometime last year. They have the same expressions and same hand positions and everything. The only diffrence this time is Kieron spoiling the beautiful McDean moment!

    Ooooo I hope they bring back the waistcoat and blue shirt they use to always wear when confessing their love for each other as it was used last year as a visual reminder of their love for one another even when Craig was with Sarah!!!

  • So John Paul saying Kieron not the one huh?

    interesting.

  • Poor Kieron. I love him of course. YAY that Craig is back though. I still love him. He's walking drama. What a great episode.

  • OMG!!!! YEs!!! Thanks!

  • ahhhhhhhh im sad about everything with kieron but i didnt think i would be this happy to see craig lol

  • lol i was gonna write OOOMGGG CRAIIIGG!! but it seems everyone else was thinking the same thing

  • big foreshadowing with that cup niall's hands to kieron!!!!!!!!!! ahhhhh!

  • OHHH MYYY GOOODDDD!!!!!!

    i need more!

  • ooohhhhh myyyy gahhhh!!! CRAIG!

  • Thank you for posting. I was thinking I was not going to be able to watch until tomarrow. The look, its like they never lost it.

  • WHAYYY!!

    CRAIG!!

    AND JP!!

    WHAYYY!!

  • omgggg CRAIGGGGGGGGGG!

  • OMG Craig!

  • i completly agree.. lol damn the person that marked you as spam XD

  • He grew balls the moment he was honest with Kieron about his feelings. :D

  • Aww kieran <3

  • HE IS BACCCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a million for the upload you're a genius xxx

  • i have been waiting all day just for this moment!

  • Ihhhhhhhhhhhh Craig is Back... Craig is back. I'm so excited it's ridicules

  • SO GREAT!!! Craig and JP.... pure Heaven!

  • omg omg what happens next! I hope Keiron meets Craig and I cannot wait to see what happens to this! Thanks so much for uploading this

  • Poor Kieron. He gave up everything to be with John Paul!

  • Well, yes and no. JP made him realize what kind of life he really wanted. Better he realize it now than 20-30 years from now. There are times when a person can be a catalyst for change in your life without being the final destination.

  • Wow, you are deep!

  • OMG up until that feet to face shot i thought i was rooting for Kieron and John Paul, but when i saw Craig i was thinking "JP needs to be back with him." Dunno why cuz i love Kieron but something in me is split now.

  • ooooooomg he's back yeeeaiiii xD

    i wanna laugh, cry and shout at the same time xD

    i'm so happy x)

  • did i miss something or what was the meaning behind steph and kieron's convo with her saying "i bet you never thought you'd fall in love again after last year" and her responded with "well anythings possible given time"?

  • yeah,I noticed that too, what's that all about?

  • I was thinking the exact same thing!! What the hell did she mean, it is not something that has been brought up, and Kieron wasn't in Hollyoaks last year anyway????????

  • she says "i bet HE (jp) didn't think HE'd fall in love again after last year" ;D

  • Poor Newt.

    Poor Kieron.

    Not happy :(

  • HE'S BACK. OMFG. YES. YES. YES.

    I love Craig. :)

  • Say whaaaaa...well that expression of Craig's at the end tells a lot I'd say.

  • Awesome! I've been waiting all day for this =D

  • OMFG THANK YOU SOOO MUCH :D
