Hollyoaks star Anya Lawrence has revealed more information about Vicky Grant’s shock collapse.
In scenes that air next week, Vicky will mysteriously pass out when partying with her friends at a campsite, with her life left hanging in the balance.
Lawrence, who debuted as Vicky last year, spoke to Inside Soap about the traumatic scenes, teasing the potential cause of the incident and foster parent Scott’s reaction to it.

“Vicky has drugs in her system somehow, even though she doesn’t remember taking them,” revealed Lawrence. “One thing leads to another and she’s on the floor. It’s very serious - everyone thinks she’s dead.
“[Scott] is absolutely heartbroken [by the events]. Vicky’s going through something traumatic and [he] feels helpless,” she continued. “Scott doesn’t even have all the information because there are so many secrets and so many lies that have been told.”
The actress also spoke about her experiences of filming the emotional scenes, revealing that production was elongated due to the unpredictable weather.

“I had a great time [filming the scenes]. We filmed in the woods just behind the set, which was good,” she said. “We kept running back inside because it was so cold. It took about two months to film because the weather was so unpredictable but we got there in the end. I’m excited for everyone to see the episodes because we all put a lot of work into them.”
Also on the soap, Shaq Qureshi left the village earlier this week, with the character deciding to move to Paris following the death of girlfriend Verity Hutchinson.
Actor Omar Malik, who had joined the soap as Shaq in early 2021, penned a message to fans following his departure, writing: “Thanks to all the fans for your kind words and messages... the support you've shown Shaq and I throughout all his misguided adventures and relationships has been. He's been unlucky in love but now tries to make a new life abroad in France!”
