Hollyoaks adds Drag Race's Danny Beard to opening titles
Hollyoaks spoilers follow.
RuPaul's Drag Race UK series 4 winner Danny Beard may not have won any prize money from the BBC Three reality, but the queen has got something money can't buy: an appearance in the Hollyoaks opening titles.
Danny features prominently in tonight's (March 14) E4 first-look episode as part of Juliet Nightingale and Peri Lomax's visit to Brighton, helping the girls get back to Chester and performing at the Love Boat.
To celebrate the cameo, Danny will be part of Hollyoaks' iconic and ever-changing opening titles for one night only. As has been the case for a while now, you can watch tonight's E4 episode on All4 now, or you can watch Danny's bit of the intro above.

Speaking about the honour of being included in the intro, Danny jokingly said: "I'm filming a title sequence to go into Hollyoaks because I thought it would be a really good idea and now everyone’s on board. A Soap Award's on the way for me, I can feel it. My acting is... it just is."
The whole Brighton getaway is part of Peri's plan to create some lifelong memories with Juliet as she battles with cancer, with Peri actress Ruby O'Donnell stating: "We wanted to show the highs and lows of struggling with cancer, and to find the positive moments among the sadness of it all."

The star continued: "It injects some happiness and energy into an upsetting plot — there are some big scenes, but it's mostly about Juliet and Peri having fun."
Hollyoaks streams first on All 4, with new episodes dropping each weekday morning. The show airs Mondays to Fridays at 6.30pm on Channel 4, and at 7pm on E4.
