‘Hollyoaks’ will reveal who shot Mercedes McQueen in tonight’s episode (17.12.19).
The ‘Who Shot Mercedes’ whodunnit storyline saw Mercedes (Jennifer Metcalfe) get shot in The Loft, with seven potential suspects, including Grace Black (Tamara Wall) – who she recently ran over – her husband Sylver McQueen (David Tag), lover Liam Donovan (Jude Monk McGowan), serial killer Breda McQueen (Moya Brady), secret keeper Joel Dexter (Rory Douglas-Speed), pal Diane Hutchinson (Alex Fletcher), and angry lawyer James Nightingale (Gregory Finnegan).
Now, the mystery will be solved as the Channel 4 soap will unveil the killer in Tuesday’s episode.
Revealing the news on Twitter, they wrote: "Guys, MASSIVE news! You’ll find out who the culprit is behind #WhoShotMercedes TONIGHT ON E4!! Tell us who you think it is… it’s less than 12 hours until you find out! So exciting! Ahhhhh!! #Hollyoaks"
Meanwhile, the 36-year-old star admits it was "about time" Mercedes got her comeuppance after running over Grace – and having an affair with Liam – and she is "really proud" of the plot.
She added: "I thought it was about time – the girl needed some comeuppance.
"Too much has gone on this year so it needed to come to an abrupt end, and a whodunnit is perfect.
"For me, personally, I’ve never been prouder of work I’ve done so much.
"I’m really proud, watching all the guys do their thing. I think it’s a great collaboration of amazing actors and it’s worth the watch.
"I hope the fans will join in with it in a ‘she deserves it, but she’s bloody brilliant’ type way.
"Because that’s how I feel about her, but I’m a little bit biased."
When Jennifer was told about the whodunnit she immediately thought of Liam as the number one suspect.
Asked who came to mind first as the potential aggressor, she added: "Probably Liam, just because he’s a baddie. He’s probably got a gun or 10 at home.
"He would just do it anyway. She has done a lot wrong to Sylver, but I just don’t think he’s capable. He’s softer."
