Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Monday's (June 23) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
Bloodthirsty Jez Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) has struck again, claiming the life of Ian, a social worker who he believed knew way too much.
The crazed killer, as viewers know, has thus far killed Dilly Harcourt (Emma Johnsey-Smith) and Abe Fielding (Tyler Conti) since rocking up in the village.
His murder spree, however, dates back decades, with the twisted gardener keeping track of all his victims' names in a notebook which he keeps close.
An unexpected turn of events last week confirmed that one of those victims was none other than Dennis Savage (Joe Tracini), whose disappearance Dodger (Danny Mac) is investigating, unaware the culprit is much closer to home.
In a bid to get answers, Dodger met with Tori's social worker Ian, who confirmed that a member of the Blake clan was harassing Dennis prior to his vanishing.
That person was none other than Jez, who watched the secret meeting from afar, spooking Ian, who swiftly made tracks.
However, as he got back to his car, he was confronted by Jez in an alley way, who proceeded to murder him.
Feeling a rush as he did so, Jez returned to the flat and informed Martha (Sherrie Hewson), who was less than pleased to learn that he had shed more blood.

Coronation Street villain makes horror return from the dead as victim is haunted in harrowing scenes
CORONATION Street fans are in for a shock as a twisted villain makes a chilling return from beyond the grave - leaving their former victim haunted in terrifying scenes. Lauren Bolton was left horrified in tonight's (Monday) episode after she thought evil Joel Deering had come back from the dead in spine-tingling scenes. 4 4 The troubled teen - played by Cait Fitton - agreed to join pal Betsy Swain at Aadi Alahan's wild midsummer bash, but things took a dark turn when she unknowingly drank lemonade laced with LSD. Stumbling into the ginnel in a drug -fuelled haze, Lauren was approached by a mystery man checking if she was okay - but in her hallucinatory state, she was convinced it was twisted abuser Joel and totally freaked out. As the hallucinations intensified, Lauren found herself inside the factory, convinced that monster Joel had kidnapped baby Frankie. By the time a panicked Aadi tracked her down, she was in a state of complete hysteria - sobbing, shaking and terrified. But will Lauren be able to bounce back from the traumatic trip? Or has this harrowing ordeal reopened old wounds that may never heal? Corrie viewers know that Joel put Lauren through a living nightmare - grooming, manipulating and eventually attacking her before leaving her for dead. Her disappearance sparked a murder investigation, only for her to reappear alive… and pregnant with his baby. But the horror didn't end there. In a sickening twist, Joel tried to drug Lauren to bring on early labour and force her to lose the baby. Thankfully, the evil plan backfired, and Lauren went on to safely give birth to little Frankie. Joel's reign of terror only ended when Lauren struck him with a rock - in a desperate bid to save Max Turner from being strangled. She later stood trial for his death but was found not guilty. Now, Lauren has been trying to rebuild her life as a young mum - but her terrifying trip may prove that her past still isn't done haunting her. Soap's most harrowing teen storylines We take a look at other harrowing teen soap storylines from soaps Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks. Belle Dingle's schizophrenia in Emmerdale - Belle's (Eden Taylor-Draper) traumatic journey in Emmerdale took a dark turn when, after accidentally killing her best friend Gemma at just 16, her mental health began to spiral. The storyline, which saw Belle struggling with her grief and guilt, showcased her battle with hearing Gemma's voice inside her head, leading to a dramatic decline in her well-being. Hannah Ashworth's anorexia in Hollyoaks - Viewers were horrified as they watched Hannah (Emma Rigby), a seemingly innocent teen, spiral into dangerous behavior, starving herself in an attempt to achieve what she thought was the ideal body. As Hannah's condition worsened, the storyline became more intense, culminating in her being hospitalised for two months as she fought for her life. Bethany Platt's grooming ordeal in Coronation Street - Vulnerable schoolgirl, played by Lucy Fallon, was at the centre of one of Corrie's darkest storylines to date when she fell under the spell of her older boyfriend and sexual predator. The controversial scenes saw Nathan groom and manipulate the 16-year-old before coercing her into sleeping with his friends, with one of them raping her. Whitney Dean's abuse from Tony in EastEnders - Since the age of 12, she had been in a twisted relationship with her stepmum Bianca's boyfriend, Tony King. The predator had groomed young Whit (Shona McGarty), making her believe she was in love and planning to run away with him. On her 16th birthday, the traumatised teen finally revealed the years of abuse to Bianca. Tony was swiftly sent to prison sentenced for 13 years. Meanwhile, still high on LSD, Nina and Summer let themselves into the darkened café. When they hear the sound of sirens, they cling to each other, terrified. As the group come to terms with the disturbing events of the evening, the aftermath is felt across the neighbourhood, will the truth of what happened come out? Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 or stream from 7am on ITVX. 4 4

Hollyoaks villain Clare Devine in darkest ever plot as she gets shock new love interest
Clare is no stranger to scheming behaviour sick scheme Hollyoaks villain Clare Devine in darkest ever plot as she gets shock new love interest Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HOLLYOAKS is launching baddie Clare Devine's darkest ever plot - as she gets a shock new love interest. The soap villain - played by Gemma Bissix - returned earlier this year despite having been previously killed off. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Clare Devine is set for a dark Hollyoaks plot Credit: Lime Pictures 4 She forms an unlikely bond with Dodger Savage Credit: Lime Pictures 4 Dodger is unaware of Clare's deceit Credit: Lime Pictures In a shock scheme, Claire claims she is diagnosed with cancer - and her treatment is not working. It's a ploy to manipulate her way back into daughter Tori's (Harriet O'Shea) life. She hatched the plot following a hospital trip to visit sister Grace Black (Tamara Wall). After seeing patients receive treatment, Claire realised she could use this to her advantage. It comes as an unlikely spark seemingly forms between Clare and Dodger Savage (Danny Mac). Dodger has been firmly opposed to Clare due to her role in the exploitation scheme orchestrated by her ex-husband DI Banks (Drew Cain). However, he softens his stance upon learning of Clare's alleged cancer situation. With the undercover cop falling for her deceit, Clare moves on to the next stage of her plan. Namely, making Dodger feel guilty over taking Tori away from Clare - given her current "poor health". Hollyoaks star quits after nine years - and his final scenes have already aired After accomplishing this, the pair then share a heart-to-heart, as Clare says she'd believed her husband was having an affair, not leading an exploitation ring. The two continue to grow close - despite Dodger's sister Sienna (Anna Passey) warning him to steer clear from Clare. Later, the ever-resourceful Clare devises a sneaky plan to get Dodger to her flat - as he apologises for thinking she was involved with her husband's crimes. Feeling like he's falling for Clare, Dodger starts to worry if lines are becoming blurred. As their chemistry intensifies, will Dodger be able to see through her lies? A source said: "Clare's done some pretty bad things in her time but faking cancer is one of the worst. From Hollyoaks to Hollywood James Corden played a caretaker in the early days of the soap. The former American TV host doesn't have much positive to say about his time on the soap, claiming it was "hell on earth." Since his short-lived time on the show he has gone on to bigger things including smash hit comedy Gavin and Stacey. Rachel Shenton joined the soap as aspiring glamour model Mitzeee Minniver in 2010. Over two years her character was sent to prison, got pregnant and had a number of romantic affairs. Since leaving Hollyoaks she has won an Oscar for best live action short film, The Silent Child. Rachel has also starred in White Gold and All Creatures Great and Small Emmett J. Scanlan played gangster turned anti-hero Brendan Brady. Emmett played the love interest of Steve Hayes, with their romance delighting fans until it turned violent. Since his departure Emmett has appeared in Peaky Blinders, The Fall, Gangs of London and even appeared in Guardians of the Galaxy Emma Rigby joined Hollyoaks when she was 15 as Hannah Ahsworth. Hannah's eating disorder storyline was the first of it's kind on TV while other plots included being caught in a fire, gangland drug dealing and running away. Since leaving the soap in 2010 Emma has gone on to star in ABCs Once Upon a Time in Wonderland as the Red Queen. Other roles include guest appearances in Death In Paradise, Ripper Street and Fresh Meat Nico Mirallegro got his big break with Hollyoaks starring as emo Barry 'Newt' Newton. Nico's main storyline in the soap was developing schizophrenia which culminated in a suicide pact. He left the soap in 2010 and went on to star in My Mad Fat Diary, Our Girl, Rillington Place, The Ark and Common, Penance, as well as the Mike Leigh movie Peterloo and was nominated for a Bafta for his role in period drama The Village. Ricky Whittle used Hollyoaks as a stepping stone to break America. He played one of the soap's resident hunks, Calvin Valentine, from 2006 to 2011 - when he was killed off at his wedding. After leaving the soap Ricky cracked America starring in teen drama The 100 and America Gods. He also appeared in Strictly Come Dancing in 2009. Warren Brown joined Hollyoaks in 2005 for a year as evil Andy Holt. His stint on the show consisted of date rape storylines and a crime spree, before eventually being killed off. After leaving Hollyoaks, Warren became a big hitter in TV playing DS Justin Ripley in Luther, as well as major roles in a number of dramas including Liar, The Responder, Homefront and Good Cop. Wallis Day played Holly Cunningham in the soap for years before leaving. In 2021 Wallis won the role of Batwoman in DC's series, taking over from Ruby Rose. "She uses it to get one over on Mercedes and get her daughter back. "She'll stop at nothing to get Tori home and away from the Blakes. "Dodger has no idea what he's dealing with even if he's not the sharpest tool in the box at the best of times." Hollyoaks airs on E4 and streaming.
