Sienna Blake (Anna Passey) and Tony Hutchinson (Nick Pickard) lock lips in upcoming Hollyoaks scenes, a coupling that has left fans shocked. The pair, who rarely cross paths and have not interacted much recently, share a series of passionate kisses after a bottle of wine at Tony's flat.
How the shock moment comes about
Viewers have wondered how the two characters end up sharing a moment ever since the Channel 4 soap's Autumn Trailer teased the kiss. New spoilers now provide context. Leela Dexter (Kirsty-Leigh Porter) has started to fall for Tony after supporting him through the tragic death of Diane (Alex Fletcher). Diane had attempted to play matchmaker for Tony and Leela, but they resisted, wanting to be there for her to the end.
Since losing Peri Lomax (Ruby O'Donnell), Leela has grown closer to Tony. Next week at the hospital, she confesses she is falling in love with him. Tony's reaction to the bombshell admission remains to be seen, but later that same day he ends up with Sienna at his flat, where they share a bottle of wine. There is an instant spark, and soon the chemistry sizzles with a series of passionate kisses.
What happens next
The question remains whether the pair will come to regret their dalliance, or if this is the beginning of an unexpected new pairing. It is also unclear whether Leela will find out about the kiss, and how she would feel given she is close to both Tony and Sienna.
Hollyoaks streams Mondays to Wednesdays from 6am on Channel 4's streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.
