The storyline follows long-standing character Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas) being shot by a masked assailant – creating a new mystery whodunit storyline.

The shooter instead decides to make Warren's life a misery under the identity of "Blue".

Creation and development

On 19 June 2024, it was reported that established character Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas) would be shot, but fans were promised Warren would not die.[1] Lomas announced his exit from the soap opera in March 2024.[2] It was further announced on 24 June 2024 the production team for Hollyoaks had lined up a new mystery "whodunit" storyline surrounding Warren.[3][4] Speaking on the characters exit, Lomas stated: "I'd decided to leave a long time ago. When I went to boss Hannah [Cheers] and told her my decision – Hannah and the story team have been planning my exit for a long time. Hollyoaks does amazing stories and this is going to be brilliant. It's a real rollercoaster ride from start to finish. I'm really excited for the fans to see where they go with this."[4] The scenes aired in the episode transmitted and dated 28 June 2024.[5] A follow-up announcement came to light on 2 July 2024 – Hollyoaks had introduced a "huge summer storyline for Warren Fox", noting "his tormentor is just getting started".[6] This new identity, "Blue", who is a notorious gangland criminal, had set his eyes on Warren.[6] It was reported by newspaper tabloid The Sun on 9 July 2024, Norma Crow (Glynis Barber) was set to be murdered in a "dramatic exit storyline" as part of "twisted revenge" on Warren for his actions.[7] Barber had announced her departure prior to the report after being part of the major cast cull.[8] The scenes were set to be transmitted sometime in summer 2024, a result of the "dangerous" storyline Warren was currently facing.[7] A permanent return from Grace Black (Tamara Wall) was also revealed at this time after the production team for Hollyoaks had confirmed it in the Summer trailer for 2024.[9][10]

Suspects and motives

The first suspect that had suspicion thrown upon them was Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham).[11]
