Sienna to fight for Brody!

ANNA PASSEY HOPES HER CHARACTER WILL LEARN FROM HER MISTAKES…

- Alice Penwill

Hollyoaks viewers were shocked to learn it was Sienna, and not Mercedes, who fell back into Warren’s arms recently. Sienna has since come to her senses and declared that her affair is over – and Anna Passey, who plays her, tells us that her alter ego is prepared to keep this a secret at any cost, even if it means lying to her nearest and dearest…

Hey, Anna! Warren and Sienna’s affair came as a shock – were you excited about the storyline?

Well, I was partly sad, as I love Sienna and Brody. But then again.… it’s Warren! It’s tough, although I think with all Warren and Sienna’s history and everything they’ve been through, it was always on the cards.

Of course, Liberty spotted Sienna and Warren together, and Sienna lied that she imagined it – what a terrible thing do to!

I know, it’s awful! Sienna just blurted it out, panicked, and immediatel­y felt horrendous! Then Sienna starts to see some of the implicatio­ns of what she’s said, as poor Liberty starts to think she’s not getting any better. When I read it in the scripts, I thought it was a real low for Sienna.

What does Liberty think when she discovers the truth?

She is very angry, understand­ably. But then Sienna begs for her forgivenes­s, and

I think because Liberty had slept with Brody and lied to Sienna about it for a while, Liberty understand­s. But there’s a condition to the forgivenes­s – that Sienna comes clean to Brody! She’s made the decision that Brody’s the right person for her, and that she does want to end things with Warren.

Talking of Brody, he’s been getting closer to newcomer Summer – is Sienna aware of that?

She’s definitely noticed it. Sienna doesn’t know exactly why Brody is being so nice to Summer, and she doesn’t like it. Summer keeps turning up everywhere, and Sienna doesn’t want her to have anything to do with them. She has her eye on her.

Sienna decides that Brody is the right person for her!

What’s it been like filming a socially distanced love affair?

Of all the times to film an affair, now’s not the one! It’s a shame that it fell like this because it’s really hard to suggest things when you’re so far away from each other.

However, we’ve been so lucky to have my real-life other half, Kyle Pryor [who played Laurie Shelby] come in and act as a double – and luckily, he can get away with doubling for both Jamie [Lomas, aka Warren] and Adam Woodward [who plays Brody]. Kyle’s very happy to help and because he was in the show before, he was loving being able to have a catch-up with everyone!
