  • You'd think it would click for Hannah when she sees her friend so sick!

  • that was honestly probably the most realistic crying to a best friend dying i have ever seen in a movie. really good acting. it was so emotional, i'm a teared up. :(

  • Emma Rigby was the best actor Hollyoaks ever had.

  • wow the girls seem like gollum if you know what i mean. not trying to be disrespectful or anything ;)

  • nice going hannah. if you had left her at the hospital she would be alive

  • "You don't understand... None of you understand"

    I think this is the truest part of this scene, because the desperation and misery in her voice says it all. Thumbs up to the actress who played Melissa.

    And the one who played Hannah is amazing too, her hysterical crying at the end put me to tears. And that honestly doesn't happen very often when I watch shows or movies.

  • I wish I had Mellissa as a friend,she could teach me tips to loss weight.I'd like to look like mellisa

  • @oilly900 shes anorexic and died from it. ITS A DISEASE NOT A JOKE.

  • My dad died on the same day as Melissa, from the same thing. A heart attack.

  • @paige75430 She has Anorexia

  • stupid question probs, but what's with the marks on their faces?

  • @imanmjfanforever The lack of food = lack of essential vitamins, minerals, oils etc.

    this causes the skin to be more prone to spots and blemishes. So the marks are spots :)

  • @imanmjfanforever spots thats what happens your skin dries up and you start breaking out.

  • oh back in the days when hollyoaks was actually good

  • Most people forget that Hannah had an eating disorder BEFORE Melissa even showed up. She was bulimic.

  • are hannah and melissa the same age or is melissa older than her?

  • Poor Melissa her greatest high is control over everything, thats the one thing I hate about rehabiliation. Instead of helping people regain control and peace they strip all the control at once. Any unafflicted person would do exactly what Melissa did

  • she should b in jail 4 helpin her escape

  • i don't understand, is this a show or a movie?

  • it's not showing how unattractive anorexia is, it's showing the danger and how powerful and gripping it is among a sufferer. im a proud recovered anorexic and this show's storyline really helped show the reality to what i would succumb to if i didnt seek help.

    i urge anyone suffering to try their best at recovery; its no easy road i know but it is possible, im justy glad soaps are highlighting issues like this and raising awareness, gave me and other hope <3

  • @EraseMyself i loved your comment :) i feel just the same..i'm in recovery too and to be honest, when everyone found out i felt so relieved and it was the best descision i think i have ever made :) on my way to how i was before now and never been happier x

  • @DebbieHarryxxx aw thankyou, im so glad to hear that you made that brave decision, that in itself sows that you're a seriously strong person. hearing that you're very happy makes me happy, i wish you all the best :) x

  • @EraseMyself thank you :D good luck with everything too!! xxx

  • I like how Melissa's collapsing and Suzanne's a nurse, yet all she does is call out 'Melissa, open your eyes!' lol.

  • @saraahh02 She was doing CPR at the same time if you look closely.

  • Comment removed

  • Melissa makes me sick! So horrible how your body breaks down from starvation. They really did a good job of showing how unattractive an anorexic eventually becomes.

  • I cried so hard at the end of this episode.

  • I wish I was as skinny as Melissa :-( thats all I want in life, I need someone to help me become perfect and thin

  • @paigelynettE: being anorexic is not suttin you want to be in life. im not telling you what to do or anything. im just sayin it aint right.

  • @paigelynette depends on what you mean by ''thin''

  • @anniekitty4000 Just thin and beautiful, till I can see ribs and hip bones. Then I will be happy

  • if you listen carefully, the arguement reece and hannah's mum are having, is on repeat lol 

  • Comment removed

  • @boylover20000 just her friend

  • This is so sad when melissa dies I feel so bad for hannah that was her best friend.

  • I wish i had someone like melissa as a friend :(, im a little like hannah thinkin im bad and shit :( xx

  • i agree with u vianna thats y i, wtchin this too

  • It's kind of akward how they put makeup on the girls with eating disorders so they look like plague victims, and not all girls with anorexia have bad skin, take it from me. Just sayin.'

  • what is the song at 2:43???

  • the girl playing Melissa is such a great actress!

  • Her crying at the end made me start to cry, such a good actress.

  • Im going down the exact same road that melissa is..except not that sick ..yet. and i just pictured my sister screaming at me to wake up..and i totally just broke down ]:

  • They've made Melissa look REALLY terrible... Nice work!

  • The brown hair girls looks really sick at 3:20 

  • That cry at the end sounds so real, very good acting!

  • i feel bad for all who have ed's, ive watched so many movies like this and i still cant understand what your going through..ive tried but it just doesnt make sence to me, i know it is eaisser said than done but the only this that i can keep thinking is why dont they just believe the people around them and snap out of it. this comment wasnt meant to be mean or rude. im truly sorry for your problems.

  • they cant snap out of it because theres an inner voice that keeps nagging them that everyone is conspiring to make them get fat..

  • @SueElAbbasy i know that, thats just me wanting them to get better. i dont like to see ppl go through things like that. i said i WISH. i wasnt telling them to snap out of. i want them to. i know its not possible.

  • @bambajamba I think if there would be more people with comments like yours there would be much less ED sufferers.

  • @JenWithThePen Thank You. believe it or not i was having a bad night and you just made it with your kind words!! really thank you =)

  • i wish i had a friend like melissa who would help me loose weight, i always feel like that xx

  • @67Amr theres a way of doing it in a healthy way tho

  • :( poor mel!!!she was only a girl in need of help.

  • hey please could you make this video and hannahs story Hannah's Story - 25/09/07 - Part 2 avalible on mobile please :)

  • OMG SHES DYING HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!

  • her last words were "we're going"

  • WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD OR GET THIS SERIES! its so good!

  • hospitals are stupid i walked out of a mad house 4 times and it took them ages to notice i was gone lol

  • r they from australia or britian??

  • they're from britain silly.

  • @xxshannen1xx thought so

  • thats why rhys said 'where you going, australia?' :)

  • @tatulover2120 from britain.

  • that is some intense hospital to have people just leave. haha

  • intense

  • what's the name of that song that plays at the end when melissa's dying

  • Comment removed

  • OMG im cryin that is sooooo sad.

    :*(

  • Comment removed

  • what's the name of the show?

  • Hollyoaks

  • i cryed so much, me and my best friend, i dont know weather se'd do the same, but id kill myself, its not as if i wouldnt die eventually anyway, and i wouldnt be able to live without her.

  • thats like me and one of my best friends. we are a team, but...she says that if I die, she'll kill herself. So this means I'm going to be forced to recover when I'm not really ready. This made me cry...it's what I'm scared of. And I don't know if the "melissa" will be me...or my friend.

  • thank you ive finally read someting that someone thinks the same as me thank you ! x

  • I actully cried so much :(

  • omg that i so sad

  • hey,can anyone tell me what's with melissa?I havent been following the story

  • I always wondered what wouldve happened if emma actually just went w/out getting her stuff

  • it broke me when she died. Emma rigby is such a good actress through all of this :)

  • i don't remember seeing melissa in earlier hollyoaks, where did she come from? i'm confused

  • its not very surprising to me that a lot of people with ed's are watching this. thats a trait that someone with ed's have, they like to watch/read/ or just look at things that have to do with eating disorders that probably why I'm watching.

  • i find watching things like these so triggering

  • me too

  • @viannafashionwhore doing that makes me feel like a fake =(

  • are they trying to run away and why?

  • so they can get away from the family so they can continue starving they dont see it as starving tho melissa and hannah see it as becoming thinner

  • that gave me goosebumps--the bad kind :(

  • What channel is this show on?

  • channel 4 and E4 on UK tv

  • makes me cry every time. and i've seen it a lot :(

  • god melissa looks awful

  • that made me cry :[

  • is it just me or does anyone think hannahs family is awful? i mean her brothers are literally abusive to mellisa, in previous episodes they grabbed her and pushed her phsycially and hannah is 18 she is a legal adult she should be able to do what she wants including walking out the door to go overseas, her mum is nice but she still is really overbearing

  • I agree with ya. They are terrible to both Melissa and Hannah. I mean it's one thing to not understand, and another to be completely horrible!

  • I loved Mellisa so much, i cried when she died. It was so sad. In the end... ana took her. maybe mellisa wouldnt have died if hannah hadnt assisted sneaking her out of the hospital. if she was in hospital she would have been able to be saved. so sad.

  • god that made me cry.

  • oy. that's intense.

  • I love Melissa. I feel so sorry for her. I know everyone hates her for what she does to Hannah, but people seem to forget that she's sick too. I cried so much at the end of this.

  • @Hakuryu31 I cryed aswell i was really upset x

  • lol ..5 th september my birthday! :D

    love this episode

  • ooooooo is maelissa starvin herself 2?

  • naa there just bff's and melissa is anerxic i think?!

    p.s. i cant spell

  • We're all sick in the head. Does that mean I deserve to die too?

  • i really loved melissa but i love hannah toooooooo the ending is soooooooooooo sad

  • HAhaaa! Look at craigs face when Melissa gets up and is like we should go...hes like eww...gross :L

  • man shes a good actress

  • her bros r cute

  • that ending scene was amazing

    was that song burn girl prom queen by mogwai or am i wrong?

  • the song is girls by death in vegas

  • Emma Rigby is an amazing actress- and hannah is easily my favourite girl in hollyoaks. i do miss melissa though- i was sobbing when this was on tv

  • Omg, Emmy Rigby OWNED that ending scene!

  • omg this is so sad poor mellisa and Hannah i mean i dnt know what is going through there minds i really hope they get better!

  • they cant, melissa's dead, but hannah can.

  • Hannah was just amazing,

    It felt like she was actually going through it

  • I have anorexia to and I'm trying to recover. I do wish people like family and friends would leave me to it, but eventually it occured to me that I am ill and need help from the closest people to me.

  • its is triggering..thats why im watching it..except for the death part cuz i know she dies..but i wont be like her

  • *hugs*

    Take care of yourself, hun xxx

  • That's what they ALL say..

  • this was so sad.

  • Does anyone else find this storyline triggering? When it was TV I was recovering Bulimia and it was a struggle ya know?

  • yes all these shows trigger me. i have anorexia.

  • this episode made me cry and its hard to make a hard nut lik me cry

    this is such a sad story line

  • you would think hannahs anorexia gets really severe after losing a friend like that

  • it did get really severe, she was starving herself so much she was near death

  • Im struggling with Bulimia and this storyline has helped so much :(

  • hope u get better soon, xxx

  • that's what I love about Hollyoaks, it doesn't pander over and brush over serious situations like that.. I hope you're on the way to getting better now hun *hugs* take care of yourself :)

  • i had at 9 for 2 years(im 12 now) and ive now got over it but my best friend helped me through it and im now better but it dosnt help that my brother 16 and weigh 6 1/2 stone so hes battling it too not a nice illness

  • how anybody could call Emma Rigby a bad actress I don't know

  • The family arguing in the background was a good effect. .Made it seem more realistic as to how it was affecting them.

  • wow..='(

  • they look aawful;;;

  • My good friend from school had anorexia when she was 14...it was so hard, but she got through it and she's fighting fit :) the acting here was amazing, and the scene is so emotional when she dies.

  • why did you tell!!! I haven't seen it!

  • Sorry =S I assumed most people knew seeing as this episode was broadcast about a year ago. Tip - don't read the comments before seeing the vid ;)

  • You're from Iceland?

    Oops...this episode was shown in the UK ages ago. SORRY :P

  • its brilliant how realisticly sick hannah and mellissa look.

  • oh my.

  • Music: Death In Vegas - Girls

  • Whats the background music called?

  • yeah but she couldnt help it, so its not stupid :/

  • its an illness you stupid prick!

  • I'd like to see you try!

  • it's a mental illness asshole, you start off controlling it and in the end IT controls you, driving you to an early grave if you don't get help and support, but you can't be forced, you need to be able to ask for the help yourself

  • tell that to my family!! there forcing me.. i'm refusing,

  • Probably the most saddest episode yet. =[

  • thats so upsetting...i love how good emma rigby was at playing hannah in this episode!

    also whats the background music? does anybody know?

    x

  • like the most heartbreaking episode of hollyoaks ive ever seen

  • What is this movie from? I cant find anything about it on the internet

  • It's from Hollyoaks - a TV programme on Channel 4 :)

  • it isnt a movie its a soap , its called hollyoaks and the girl that plays hannah is called hannah ashworth and the girl that plays melissa is called carly chases.

  • no the girl who plays hannah is called emma rigby

  • you know.. i really love this storyline, but there's one thing bothering me..

    tell me if i'm wrong, but in less then a year, Hannah first purged, then got anorexic, got admitted in hospital, got out and now she's living a normal life..

    i know it sounds really stupid, but if you put it like that, i mean, is that even possible?

    great acting btw:) this is absolutely the best storyline i've ever seen in a soap

    xx

  • i loved this storyline but yeah i get ya with the living a normal life!! they still live in the same house!!! that would scare the hell outta me knowing that someone died in my hallway. Same with the Beth and Rhys storyline. I'd have moved out of hollyoaks so fast haha!! =]

  • wow, finally a show that shows it this way. If there is a storyline of eating disorders in a show it only last 3 episodes, if not shorter. Don't know how long this one is/was but it shows the different side than all the other shows. They don't show the real bad effects on others shows. This will effect a lot more people, maybe more are now searching for help. I heard that Hollyoaks always shows a helpline in the end, very good of them.

  • holy shit that was hard to watch

  • its really good that the soaps are now covering issues that people can really relate to. it was portrayed as the disturbing illness it really is-not like in the media, where you open up a mag & see pic after pic of skinny celeb. its sickening.

  • fank u x 1000000 for uploading this

  • This is so sad, I really relate to both Hannah and Melissa, but i really do feel that Hannah hasnt really got anorexia, she has because shes clincally underweight, but shes doing everything because she wants to be thin, its a phase shes going through and the only reason shes kept this long is that she has Melissa. But its really sad and makes me think so much this clip :|

  • My cousain died of anorexia in June last year.

  • Sorry to hear that.

  • i cried for so long after this

    xx

  • that well made me cry..

  • poor melissa she was kind of badass
