Hollyoaks fans can't take much more of Buster's actions
Hollyoaks viewers were raging tonight (July 16) as certain villainous characters made other people's lives a misery.
While Simone Loveday (Jacqueline Boatswain) spent most of the episode making it her business to stop newcomer Sylver McQueen (David Tag) from getting a fresh start in Hollyoaks, it was evil football coach Buster Smith (Nathan Sussex) was continuing his torment of poor Ollie Morgan (Aedan Duckworth) that proved the biggest talking point of the night.
With Ollie's dad Luke (Gary Lucy) and stepmum Mandy (Sarah Jayne Dunn) remaining totally oblivious about Buster's actions, Ollie has been struggling by himself, even quitting the football team after Buster made an inappropriate gesture towards him.
Tonight's episode saw Luke and Mandy invite the coach round and together they talked Ollie into re-joining the team, but viewers were left absolutely disgusted by Buster's behaviour and are desperate for him to be found out – especially after Ollie came very close to confessing all to Mandy tonight:
Ollie's built up the courage to speak out... but one moment has changed it all... #Hollyoaks pic.twitter.com/Zml5qSyhmh

Hate how Buster acts like such a good guy despite what hes been doing to Ollie, but thats exactly how these types are. No conscience #Hollyoaks

Mandy and Luke need to notice that it’s Buster upsetting Ollie. Won’t be long until Buster gets what’s coming to him #HollyOaks

Mandy better not gloss over that changing room comment. That is not normal behaviour 😒 #hollyoaks

Poor Ollie was clearly suffering and he ended up taking things out on potential new love interest Brooke Hathaway (Talia Grant) when she commented that Ollie is gay after seeing Buster touch his leg in the football changing room yesterday.
Furious, Ollie shouted at Brooke and called her an "idiot", which led Brooke to retreat into herself.
And while the whole situation was heartbreaking, viewers were hugely impressed by the character of Brooke and Talia's performance:

New autistic character on #Hollyoaks is very good. Proud to see her on the Soap. Well done Hollyoaks. 👌🏼

I feel a good Brooke storyline coming on 😯 #hollyoaks

Brooke's tried to expose Buster, but Ollie has took it a bit to far by talking to her like that. It's good to see autism being shown so realistically as I suffer from autism and @Hollyoaks are doing fantastic with Brooke's character! #Hollyoaks

So there’s a new #autistic character in #Hollyoaks and I just need to stop a moment to applaud it for the following reasons:
1. She’s a black girl
2. She’s sensitive to sound
3. She’s verbal & interactive
4. She isn’t portrayed as a genius
5. She had a meltdown- Hayley Hall (@HayleyHall_UK) July 16, 2018
