Breda McQueen (Moya Brady)
Get ready for an unruly family reunion on Hollyoaks that only the McQueens are capable of!
Next week will see the surprise arrival of Goldie McQueen's mother Breda to coincide with the prison release of Goldie's long-lost half-brother Sylvester 'Sylver' McQueen (David Tag).
Goldie definitely isn't happy to see mum Breda, and tension skyrockets when her mother insists that Goldie should give her brother Sylver a place to stay now that he's getting out of the slammer.

Before long, Goldie is thinking up ways to get her mother to leave, but Breda proves that she's just as crafty as her daughter and might not take no for an answer.
The role of Breda McQueen will be played by former Shameless star Moya Brady, who describes the character as a "strong and colourful individual" without "a lot of fear for authority".
"Breda comes from the firm but fair school of motherhood," the actress teased. "She's like a tigress for her kids."
While Sylver has been locked away in prison, Breda has apparently been working as a "Super Nanny" near his jail to keep tabs on him — but Moya Brady insists that the McQueen matriarch doesn't play favourites.
"I think most people would presume she favours Sylver over Goldie," she admitted. "This is certainly not true, and you can see her love for Goldie when she becomes more settled in the village."
