Hollyoaks kicks off 2013 with a dark storyline as Brendan Brady plots for his evil father Seamus to be murdered, Digital Spy can confirm.

Brendan's world has crashed down around him in recent days with his dad back on the scene, and fans will soon see the club owner resort to desperate measures in an attempt to get rid of him.

In scenes airing in the first week of January, Brendan (Emmett Scanlan) asks his protégé Joel Dexter to kill Seamus in exchange for cash.

Joel (Andrew Still) is horrified by the sinister offer and initially refuses, but soon feels forced to go along with the plan when Brendan piles on the pressure.

As the dramatic storyline plays out, Joel attacks Seamus with a baseball bat before dragging him off to a nearby shack.

With Seamus still unconscious, Joel pours petrol around the small building before setting it alight and watching on as it goes up in flames.

Further details about the storyline and the consequences for Joel and Brendan will be kept under wraps until the episodes air in the New Year.

Brendan's hatred and fear of his father dates back many years as Seamus sexually abused him when he was a young child. Viewers discovered this dark secret in the most recent series of Hollyoaks Later.

Fintan McKeown, who has previously appeared in Merlin, Game of Thrones and Star Trek: Voyager, was cast as Seamus earlier this year and made his first appearance in the role on Thursday (December 20).

Hollyoaks airs the shock murder scheme on Thursday, January 3 and Friday, January 4 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
