Hollyoaks is a long-running television soap opera, first broadcast on Channel 4 on 23 October 1995. It was originally devised by Phil Redmond, who has also devised shows including Brookside and Grange Hill. The programme is set in and around the fictional Chester suburb of Hollyoaks and is centred around a local higher education college called Hollyoaks Community College, with the characters generally being in their late teens or early twenties. Since 1995, the cast has expanded from just seven major characters to approximately 50 cast members. As of July 5, 2010, episodes of the soap currently airing are produced by Paul Marquess, who replaced Lucy Allan in January. It was announced on 15 January 2010 that Allan had stepped down from her position as producer and would be replaced by former The Bill executive producer Paul Marquess.

In the 2000s, Hollyoaks became more popular than it was in its first five years, when it was a newcomer to the British soap scene. By the turn of the millennium, it had a substantial fan base and was seen as a vibrant, modern and young person’s soap. In 2002, creator Phil Redmond considered withdrawing his programme from airing on Channel 4, after the network axed his other soap opera Brookside.Hollyoaks continued to air however, which has turned out to be good for the show, as it has now filled the place left by Brookside as Channel 4′s contribution to the “Top 4″ British soaps, alongside Coronation Street, EastEnders, and Emmerdale.
