Niamh Blackshaw wants Hollyoaks character to ‘go off the rails’

Niamh Blackshaw wants her ‘Hollyoaks’ character to "go off the rails".
The 19-year-old star believes her character Juliet Quinn "definitely has it in her" to cause havoc in the village, and she would also like to play out a domestic abuse plot on the Channel 4 soap at some point.
She said: "I’d love to do Juliet going off the rails. The partying would be so fun, and making all these bad decisions.
"She’s definitely got it in her. Also the abuse in a marriage storyline, which is going on at the minute with Sinead and Laurie, is a really incredible storyline.
"I’d love to do something along the lines as well."
Juliet will cause chaos just next week when she turns up at the hospital and declares Darren Osborne (Ashley Taylor Dawson) is in love with her, leaving him baffled while his girlfriend Mandy Morgan (Sarah Jayne Dunn) is in the delivery room ready to give birth.
Niamh added: "The whole situation between Juliet and Darren comes to a head.
"She decides its time that she makes it known to him how she feels.
"She goes to do just that with the expectation that everything will be reciprocated, and obviously that’s not how it turns out.
"Juliet’s timing is always great. She decides to go and tell him how she feels the moment Mandy is giving birth.
"If it wasn’t so emotional for her it could be quite comical.
"As Mandy is being rushed in to the delivery room she is stopping Darren saying, ‘You don’t love her you love me,’ and Darren is very confused.
"She has to realise that this isn’t the fantasy that was in her head, it isn’t real."
While the feelings certainly aren’t mutual for Darren, Juliet firmly believes he is interested in her.
Niamh said: "She genuinely thinks he likes her back she really does.
"It just shows how naive she is and she genuinely has no doubt. His reaction is such a shock. I don’t even think Mandy’s on her mind."
