Hollyoaks Favourites is a British television series that aired on E4 from 29 March 2020 to 15 January 2021. The series shows past episodes of Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks and was launched as a response to production on Hollyoaks being suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to fill the slot of new episodes. The series concluded on 15 January 2021, when the series returned to transmitting five weekly episodes.

Production

[edit]

On 22 March 2020, Channel 4 suspended production and filming of Hollyoaks due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A decision was made to air classic episodes from 30 March, new episodes being broadcast was reduced from five to three, airing on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. However, on 6 April, this was reduced again from three to two, airing Monday and Tuesday.[1]

The slots were known as Hollyoaks Favourites and each show is presented by a cast member that their character was key to the episode. Once there were enough episodes of Hollyoaks filmed, Hollyoaks Favourites was replaced by Hollyoaks as it was intended to be a stopgap during the pandemic.[2] In July 2020, Hollyoaks Favourites was replaced by Hollyoaks@25, a series that explores moments from the first 25 years of the soap.[3]
