Hollyoaks character thrown through windscreen in crash as 5 more face death
Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Monday’s (April 13) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
There were screams galore in Hollyoaks as a number of characters were left terrified for their life amid a devastating crash.
The catastrophic collision came in the dead of night on a remote road just moments after Frankie Osborne (Isabelle Smith) set off for a new adventure in London, having secured a place at a dance school.
The popular character, who has been at the centre of some of the long-running serial’s biggest ever stories, said her goodbyes to her loved ones and set off with brother Charlie Dean (Charlie Behan) and best mate Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence).
But with little time left until her train, Frankie’s joy turned to panic when she realised that she had left her brand new ballet shoes behind, instructing Charlie to turn around.
On the way home, however, the trio found themselves trailing behind a very large removal van, with new clan the Keanes behind the wheel.
Earlier in the episode, we’d seen newcomers Jonah (Matthew Wolfenden) and Beth (Rebecca Ryan) leave their neighbourhood behind for a fresh start in Hollyoaks with son Caleb (Lewis Walton).
But their excitement was short-lived when they encountered Charlie, who – determined to get Frankie to the station on time – made it clear that he wanted to overtake.
Beth instructed Jonah to pull over and let Charlie go ahead but the patriarch refused out of principle. Caleb, meanwhile, unbuckled his seatbelt to reach for his phone charger, having realised his device was out of battery.
Frankie reckoned that Charlie had plenty of room to overtake but he wasn’t so sure and, as Frankie started beeping the horn, he attempted to take over – with horrific consequences.
After clipping the van, Vicky and Frankie suffered head injuries as the vehicle flew through the air – before landing in the forest nearby.

In the van, Jonah attempted to regain control but ultimately crashed into a digger – with Caleb being thrown headfirst through the windscreen amid the collision.
The question is: has the accident proven fatal?
With six characters’ fate left hanging in the balance, will everyone pull through? Or is there more tragedy on the cards?
