    Jennifer Metcalfe has stayed tight-lipped over her shock exit storyline in a new interview about her departure from the soap.

    Wednesday's E4 first look episode (November 19) saw the actress's character Mercedes McQueen go out with a bang as she appeared to have been murdered by Freddie Roscoe.


    The act itself did not take place on screen, sparking much speculation and intrigue among viewers - but fans did see Mercedes's lifeless body being dragged away before a frantic clean-up operation began at the McQueen house.

    Speaking in a Story of Mercedes video released by Hollyoaks, Metcalfe hinted that the exact details of what happened could stay under wraps for a while.

    She said: "Mercedes's departure is totally shrouded in mystery. Running up to the week where she exits, she has really annoyed pretty much everyone in the village, so it's 'who's done it?'

    "Who has she got involved with? What's gone on off-screen? Is it all as it seems?"

    Charlie Clapham, who plays Freddie, has also responded on Twitter to the fan reaction over his character's latest dark behaviour.

    The mystery over Mercedes's sinister exit will continue on into Hollyoaks' milestone 4,000th episode, which will air on E4 on Thursday (November 20) and Channel 4 the following evening.

    The McQueens are initially oblivious to any foul play, but it's not long before some worrying evidence comes to light and the police launch a murder investigation.

    Metcalfe's departure from the role of Mercedes was announced in August following an eight-year run for the character.

    Well, its VERY unlikely she is still alive. An important question is why Freddie covered it up?

    Hollyoaks star Jennifer Metcalfe is returning to the soap as a regular cast member, Digital Spy can confirm.

    The actress reappeared on screen at the end of Tuesday's E4 first look episode (February 17) following weeks of speculation over the fate of her popular character Mercedes McQueen.

    Mercedes appeared to have been killed off in November when she was stabbed at the McQueen house and subsequently disappeared. A flashback later revealed that gangster Grace Black was the mystery culprit.

    However, Hollyoaks' latest E4 episode showed that Mercedes is not really dead and is actually hiding away in a luxury villa in Nice, France.

    Grace is cunningly trying to set up Freddie Roscoe for the 'murder' of Mercedes. She revealed the truth to Freddie's older brother Joe (Ayden Callaghan) by sending him out to France to see Mercedes for himself.

    Mercedes will feature in more scenes this week as the story behind her disappearance starts to be explained. Beyond that, Metcalfe will return to filming at Hollyoaks in March as a show regular.

    Digital Spy can confirm that it was always the plan to bring back Mercedes following her mysterious exit at the end of last year.

    Metcalfe chose to take a break from the Channel 4 soap but was always contracted to return. Her temporary exit was announced as a permanent departure in order to protect the secrecy surrounding the Mercedes storyline.

    Mercedes McQueen will soon make her explosive return to Hollyoaks, and Jennifer Metcalfe has now promised that the popular character is back for good.

    The actress took a break from her role as Mercedes late last year when the character appeared to have been killed off, but she reappears on screen as a regular cast member again from next week.

    Trevor Royle is responsible for bringing Mercedes back to the village, as he wants to clear the name of his partner Grace Black after she was wrongly accused of murdering the feisty brunette.

    Speaking to Soaplife about whether she will be sticking with Hollyoaks long-term, Metcalfe confirmed: "Yes, I am. I've loved my time off from the show, but I've come back with all guns blazing and I'm really excited about what's to come for Mercedes."

    It doesn't take long for Mercedes to find herself at the centre of a high-stakes situation, as she gets caught in the crossfire of Freddie and Joe Roscoe's ongoing feud.


    After Freddie ties the knot with Lindsey Butterfield, Grace considers taking the ultimate revenge by shooting her enemy. However, when Grace finally does the right thing and backs down, Freddie's brother Joe takes the gun and considers his own vengeful act.

    Metcalfe added: "Mercedes ends up in The Dog car park when there's a stand-off between Grace, Freddie, Lindsey and Joe, who wants to shoot Freddie. If that happened, it would draw more attention to Mercedes's mess. And as much as she hates Freddie, she doesn't want him dead. So she whacks the gun out of Joe's hand.

    "The gun goes off and Mercedes might take a bullet. You'll have to wait and see."
