Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Monday’s (June 9) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.

Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix) proved that she’s just as evil as ever, delivering a bone-chilling threat to Dillon Ray (Nathaniel Dass), Frankie Osborne (Isabelle Smith) and Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence).

The legendary soap villain, who staged a historic comeback ‘from the dead’ earlier this month, tracked the teens down to 67 Christleton Terrace, determined to ensure they keep shtum about the details of their trafficking ordeal.

Walking into the property in her signature red high heels, Clare removed pictures of Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi), Nancy Osborne (Jessica Fox) and Donny Clark (Louis Emerick) from her handbag, informing the trio that she has ‘eyes and ears’ everywhere.

Frankie, Dillon and Vicky reeled in shock as Clare ordered them to keep quiet about her and Grace Black’s (Tamara Wall) roles in their exploitation nightmare, otherwise she would make them – and their families – ‘disappear.’

The unsettling threat came just hours after Clare revealed to the village that she’s alive and well – despite the fact that everyone who dwells in Hollyoaks believed her to be dead.

It seems that living in the shadows has hardened Clare further, with the character having been pulling much of the strings of the trafficking operation.

And her ruthlessness is something that Grace is set to find out the hard way, with Clare hellbent on revenge after she discovers her sister gave Tori back to the Blakes.

Discussing what’s to come, actress Gemma Bissix told Metro: ‘Grace says she let Tori go to the shops on her own and the Blakes have just snatched her.

‘And then there is a lovely and really emotional scene where Grace has a load of regret – she looks at Clare, having not realised how much she cares about Tori: ‘You’ve never cared about anyone but yourself’. 

‘When Clare finds out from Dodger that Grace was the one who gave Tori to them, that is when Clare turns into Clare.’

Consider us intrigued.
