Yahoo Finance Duncan James hints at Hollyoaks return after character death
Former Hollyoaks star Duncan James has hinted viewers may not have seen the last of his killer character Ryan Knight.
The Channel 4 soap recently killed off abusive policeman George Kiss, but those who have been watching for at least a few years will remember Ryan Knight was the original evil cop in the village.
The Blue star exited Hollyoaks in 2018, after being plunged into a river by Harry Thompson during a heated confrontation with Ste, Leah and Lucas on a camping trip.
Speaking to The Scottish Sun, Duncan pointed out that Ryan could actually return from the dead: "I really enjoyed my time at Hollyoaks.
"I started off as this straight policeman, family man and I turned into a closeted gay murdering psycho.
"It was just crazy how they flipped my character. I signed a two-year contract so always knew, what with everything else that was going on, that my character only had a two-year life span.
"But they kind of kept it a little bit open, you saw me floating away down the river and then you saw Ste opening a body bag but you don't know for sure. So you never know. One day they might bring my character back and cause some craziness."
The singer and actor seemed reluctant to sign on for another soap role, preferring to eventually have another short Hollyoaks stint instead.
"I feel like I've ticked that box but I wouldn't be opposed to doing a little return stint on Hollyoaks," he said. "I'm still friends with them all, and it's the only soap I'd ever do."
Hollyoaks currently airs new episodes from Mondays to Fridays at 6.30pm on Channel 4, with first look screenings at 7pm on E4.
