Just woke up to some of the worst news ever.
As a massive Hollyoaks fan, I was saddened to hear that the actor that plays Brendan Brady (Emmett J. Scanlan) had announced he was leaving after 2 1/2 years on the show.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *sobs like a little girl* Why Emmett why? You were like my favourite character ever, I loved you so much, you and your tashe, the show just won't be the same without you! Please don't go! Stay! Please! If you change your mind, I'll do anything, I'll watch the show everyday at 6:30 and then change over to E4 at 7pm to watch the first look and I'll watch the Omnibus every weekend and even on 4OD. Just please say that you'll stay! *goes off to cry some more*
Okay, now that I've got that out of my system, I believe that losing Brendan is a huge loss for Hollyoaks. Though he was a bad boy, he was a favourite and in my eyes could do no wrong. With storylines that included his abusive relationship with Ste, his battles with Warren and his struggles to keep the respect and love of his sister Cheryl; Brendan became a popular character with viewers and will be surely missed. However, just like a good TV show announcing it's final season; in a way I guess it's a good thing he leaves now, so he leaves on a high and doesn't get put in long, boring drawn out storylines. So here's hoping his exit storyline will be an amazing one.
I remember when I got the chance to visit the set one time, I managed to get a glimpse of the man himself and I can tell you that was the highlight of my day, ask all my mates, they'll tell you I wouldn't shut up about it.
So here's a toast *raises an invisible glass*. To Emmett, thank you for gracing my screen as my favourite bad boy Brendan Brady, I wish you all the success in your future endeavours. Chin chin.
