Moving In!
College freshers Zoe, Kris and Will and returning student Zak arrive in Hollyoaks this week - and they're not happy to find second-year HCC students Joe, Olivia and Jessica living in their flat and posing as their mentors. While you'll have to wait and see if their scam is rumbled, here's everything you need to know about the newcomers ...
Kris
Played by Gerard McCarthy

The Low-Down Cross-dresser Kris causes qute a stir, as he enjoys getting kitted up like 80's pop star Boy George!
Skeletons in the Closet? "You'll realise he's actually very shy and insecure," explains Gerard.
Possible Romances There's only one Hollyoaks girl who'd be attracted to Kris' outlandish persona - Nancy.
Real Life Although this is Gerard's first television role, he's starred in productions of Mamia Mia! and Saturday Night Fever in London's Wesr End.
Favourite Hollyoaks Character Claire. "She's fab, ! smiles Gerard. "And you ain't seen nothing yet!"
Zoe
Played by Zoe Lister
Studies Film and Art
The Low-Down Ladette Zoe is more than happy hanging around with the boys, and his laid-back attitude means she’s the peacekeeper among the new gang.
Skeletons in the Closet? Zoe’s shocked when she discovers Joe – whom she used to date during her school days – living in the same flat as her!
Possible Romances Zoe instantly hits it off with Zak, so watch this space!
Real Life Hollyoaks is Zoe’s first TV role. “I landed the part a week before I was due to start Drama College,” grins the actress. “What a fluke!”
Favourite Hollyoaks Character Mel and Sophie. “I think the twins have had a lot of great storylines,” enthuses Zoe.
Will
Played by Oliver Farnworth
Studies Maths
The Low-Down “Will maybe seem quiet and reserved, but he’s got a dark side,” grins Oliver. “He’s capable of malicious acts.”
Skeletons in the Closet? Brainbox Will was a child prodigy and five years ahead of his fellow classmates. He even went to Oxford University, but jacked it in to enrol at Hollyoaks Community College.
Possible Romances With more brain cells than most, it’ll be a special lady who catches Will’s eye.
Real Life Playing Will is Oliver’s only role to date. “It was my first audition after drama school,” he says.
Favourite Hollyoaks Character Justin, “He gets to do such a lot of cool stuff!” smiles Oliver.
Zak
Played by Ken Riley

The Low-Down Last time we saw Zak, he was moving out of halls after bedding both Lisa Hunter and Zara Morgan! Now in his second year, he’ll befriend the new wave of students.
Skeletons in the Closet? It seems that Zak still has an eye for the ladies. “He doesn’t mean to two-time people, he just genuinely likes girls!” shares Kent.
Possible Romances Zak quickly makes friends with Zoe, and has his eye on Jessica!
Real Life Kent completed a Performing Arts degree during his break from Hollyoaks and has also had roles in episodes of Family Affairs and Footballers’ Wives.
Favourite Hollyoaks Character Jake and Becca. “They’ve had some fantastic scenes this year,” admits Kent.
