hollyoaks kris - left already???

[anna42hmr]

did any one else watch last nights e4 episode?? (tonights channel 4 episode)

as darren said in last nights e4 ep that he is a staff memeber short as kris has gone home for the summer, and then steph asked elliott if kris has already left halls, and elliott replied yesterday morning??

i am confused as if he has left for the summer, why was he in the clip on the backstage preview of elliott moving into wills room, or is that scene going to be deleated??

i heard several roumers that the actor (gerrard mccarthy) has been suspended for some reason, and other rumours to say he has gone on holiday for a month or so? does any one know when he will be back??

[Debs]

Not heard a thing about him leaving but i realy hope he isnt! Kris has become one of my fave hollyoaks charcaters!

[anna42hmr]

there have been rumers on hollyoaks official forum about him being suspended, but for some strange reason within a day of the posts being made, they are being deleated by admin?? i suppose we will have to wait and see,

It has recently been rumoured that he is to embark on a singing career, managed by Westlife manager Louis Walsh

looks like the rumours are true, as i received a bullitin on my space yesterday afternoon from gerrards official my space, confirming that gerrard has left the show it states:

Speak soon,

[Katy]

Other reports claim it is personal reason which would explain why he has gonme back to Ireland.

[Bad Wolf]

Hi Guys,

just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know about that exciting news that I was waiting to be confirmed...

Today I found out that I've been short listed in the Best Newcomer category at The British Soap Awards 2007 and I wanted to let you all know as soon as possible as I think most of you will be as excited as I am!

Unfortunately, this isn't a category that depends on public votes so all we can do is sit back and wait for the results . . .

However . . .

I have also been nominated in The Best Irish TV Actor category at The Big Buzz Irish Entertainment Awards... and I am relying on your votes for this one! Yeah!

The place to vote is...

I've had such an amazing time playing Kris in Hollyoaks and all of your letters/emails/comments and support has meant so much for me and it really does not go unnoticed.

Hope to speak to you all very soon,

Lots & lots of Irish love,

g.xx
