Fans of Hollyoaks hoping for a return from Scott Drinkwell have received a disappointing update from his portrayer, Ross Adams.
Adams recently spoke to The Sun about his roles across the British soap landscape.
With Scott’s aunt Diane, played by Brookside legend Alex Fletcher, facing a cancer storyline exit, fans had hoped the character might return for her final episodes. However, Adams suggested that may not happen.
“I always say never say never, but I do feel like that chapter has genuinely closed for me now,” he said. “Particularly with Alex Fletcher — lovely Alex Fletcher, who played Diane — leaving. She was such an integral part of my family unit on the show.”
Still, he didn’t completely shut the door on the future. “When you play a character for ten years, it’s really difficult to just shake them off,” Adams added.
Adams also noted that he wouldn’t be interested in returning for a brief appearance. “If I did go back, I wouldn’t want to do a one-episode cameo. I’d want to go back for a proper stint.”
