Hollyoaks' Jamie Lomas believes that his dodgy character Warren Fox will eventually get his comeuppance.
Just last month, Brody Hudson (played by Adam Woodward) was fatally mown down by the scheming ex-con just as he was about to reunite with partner Sienna Blake (Anna Passey).
"Taking somebody's life is a huge thing, and it does weigh heavily on him," Lomas told Inside Soap. "It's important to show the human side to Warren and he is devastated about killing Brody. But when Warren is trapped, he has to make tough decisions."

Quizzed on whether or not Warren worries about his crimes coming back to bite him, the soap star replied: "He's been to prison before, so if I open my scripts one day and that's what happens, then so be it.
"But the thing with prison is that there is always a way out – I actually think that was one of my lines once! And he'll often get his comeuppance in some other way."
Could he be bumped off himself? The jury's out for now.

Further into the interview, Lomas shared his thoughts on the audience's perception of his character.
"They all seem to like him!" he stated. "Even though he's done all these terrible things, people say to me: 'Oh he's not THAT bad!' And when I get the chance to watch the show, Warren does make me giggle. He's so much fun to play."
