Sienna Blake (Anna Passey) is set to discover that she’s not the only one with a penchant for scheming in Hollyoaks as newcomer Dilly Harcourt (Emma Johnsey-Smith) plays her at her own game.
Dilly, as viewers know, is the sister of Rafe (Chris Gordon), who Sienna and Ethan Williams (Matthew James Bailey) are plotting to swindle out of his fortune.
The couple, who have staged a break up as part of their plan, have managed to get incredibly close to Rafe, with Sienna having almost kissed the Earl in a bid to get what she wants.
The arrival of Dilly, however, has scuppered her plot, with the newcomer determined to find out what exactly it is that Sienna sees in her brother, knowing there’s more to the alleged attraction than meets the eye.
Sienna, as we all know, is a master of her craft when it comes to scheming so, while infuriated by Dilly’s presence, she’s not actually that concerned, but future scenes will see the former teacher realise that Dilly is more of a threat than she initially thought.
Determined to salvage what she can of her devilish plot, the Channel 4 soap’s resident schemer works with Ethan, who comes up with a plan to throw Dilly off the scent.
Dilly, however, is cleverer than the duo anticipated, as she begins to flirt with Ethan, before planting a kiss on his lips at the very moment Sienna walks through the door, leaving poor Ethan in hot water with his girlfriend.
Rafe, meanwhile, remains oblivious to what’s unfolding between his sister and Sienna, summoning the latter to help him think of a name for the market, which he’s bought, but Sienna begins to worry that he might make a pass at her again, prompting her to suggest that they play a word game instead.
How very Sienna.
Pictures from subsequent scenes confirm that Dilly meets with Sienna at her flat, with the two getting to know one another over a spot of tea. But just what is Dilly up to?
And will it be she or Sienna that comes out victorious?
That remains to be seen, but Metro.co.uk recently caught up with Matthew James Bailey, who plays the lovable Ethan, for a detailed chat about what’s coming up and he confirmed that there will not only be ‘heartbreak’ on the horizon, but teased that Sienna may have met her match in Dilly.
[Dilly] is very wise to what’s happening around her, whereas I think Rafe is blinded by this attraction to Sienna,’ said the star.
‘Dilly is very protective of her brother – he is all she has. Their relationship is extremely strong and she wants the best for him. I think she sees right through Ethan and Sienna’s scheming, and wants to put a stop to it as soon as she can, and she’ll do it by any means necessary.’
One to watch: Tuesday July 18 at 7pm on E4.
