403b - Brendan Brady | Hollyoaks 12th February 2013 E4 (part 2)

[@johngeraldbernard5813]

Love Brendan speech to Leah Good advice form daddy Brendan

[@junemarie4834]

Imo I think this is the episode where you grasp that Brendan loves Steven with every inch of his being. He realizes how much his kids mean to him and is willing to give Steven up and move out of flat (with the possibility of moving back in with chez and Seamus) just because amy doesn't want him around the kids. Brendan, you're ripping my heart out!!!! 😭

[@Angie511]

8:50-10:00 gosh, I'm crying so hard right now. Brendan is breaking my heart.

[@persgodiva]

Ahh. "It is them you can't leave". Kill me now.

[@BritDixie16]

That was a shitty thing for Amy to do to Ste but at the same time it is 100% understandable. Brendan's world is dangerous. We already know this by Walker lurking about and Ste was never going to let Brendan go so it is just a sad fucked up situation all around :(

[@jenniferbroto3891]

Amy taking the kids away is by far the saddest thing that I saw in Ste's SL. I shed tears over that! God, Amy can't you see it's the idea of being appart from his kids that brings out the worse in Ste, don't you remember how he almost beat Lee up b/c he wanted to sepparate them! His kids are his everything! I remember I felt so heartbroken when, drunked, he called out "Kids!" In an empty house not so long ago... :( Amy, you used to be so sweet! Why so heartless! Brendan, he understands Ste more than anyone, he was ready to give up on him, AFTER ALL THAT THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH!!! That's damn selfless. Amy please, bring back the kids! Please!!!!

[@johngeraldbernard5813]

I love Leah so sweet ,when she said I love u daddy

[@judycopelin9283]

Brendan loves Steven Always 💙💙

[@greymushroom1]

Seriously Ste is such a great father, sorry if anyone says otherwise need to watch this goodbye scene. He loves them so much, how desperate he was to keep them. I am glad we have such a positive (gay) father figure who loves their children so much.

[@lunarsafari]

ive watched this multiple times and it will forever make me cry

[@SociallyUnable]

Another amazing episode, I am really going to miss Leah and the relationship her and Brendan have which I honestly adore. Even though Brendan is a father he was never fatherly to his kids so to see him like this with Leah is really beautiful. Neil Newbon is a fantastic actor so if anyone has to play a part in Brendan's exiting storyline, I'm glad it's him. Not many other soap actors can keep up with Emmett. P.S Two thumbs up to Kieron, he nailed it.

[@charchaz00]

aw brendan is so cute with leah

[@kaocean]

Heart wrenching : (

[@dganet]

I'm having kittens each day waiting for each episode to be uploaded.......god, this is hard! It's almost worth returning to the UK to watch every night in real time!!!!!! Jeez, I miss Emmett already even though he is still onscreen =(

[@greymushroom1]

same here. i really enjoyed this episode. it was sad but that was expected but the writing and such was better than i expected.

[@littletugartbug]

I agree Kieron did a great job, I loved the scene between Brendan and Leah.

[@shandew21]

wow, crying here. so many feels.

[@LauraLee95]

I'm really liking the James Arthur at the end. Whoever picks the music for the scenes has really good tastes.

[@munash2]

Heart breaking Kieron really a great actor!!

[@babymibs]

I don't have anything against 'stug' or their fans but you'll need to realize that no matter what stendan is forever. as per words of douglas-- ' you two ( meaning brendan and steven) were always gonna get there in the end, I just got in the way for a little while'. I think those were the best lines douglas ever said throughout his time at hollyoaks!!! stendan is GOLD and stug is a mere fifth place!

[@thewindycity9277]

I can't tell you how much I agree with you. I so love Ste Hay. My disappointment in Amy Barns is beyond belief. She is so wrong, she always makes Ste pay for his past, and to think, Ste still loves this lady. Steven has such a heart of gold. I can't help it, I simply hate her for what she continues to do to this man. This man has been so giving to and of himself to this lady and all she ever does is hurt him. I started watching this show since they were in high school. Even when Steven was hitting her it had nothing to do with his love for her, he was just messed up. I just don't know what holds this man up, he's been through hell and back, but yet, he still stands. It blows my mind to know that she will hurt him yet even more in the days to come, all because, she hate's Brendan. Jesus, forgive me, I hate her. I can't help it. God, I hate seeing Ste in pain. It hurts. I know this is not real, that its fiction, but I've invested so many year's into these character's, it just feel's real. I will always stand by and for Ste Hay.

[@TheSuggly]

I don't believe in hashtags, but if I did, I would use it and follow it with "Preach" to your comment.

[@dancingsnake263]

Truth spoken very well.

[@greymushroom1]

gosh i hope that ela-may/leah would get nominated for BSA young actors. she really been amazing and not just saying that but comes off very natural for an young actress.

[@Exorxist85]

Neither Brendan, Ste, Amy & Neil is at fault. If the situation were to switch amongst the four of them, I think they will react the same as now. Obliviously Brendan would want Walker to suffer if walker is the one to supply the drug to Cheryl. And Ste will surely take the kids away if he Amy is dating walker. Each has his/her own reason of acting this way.

[@hugyface]

that was so sad "poor Ste" love Leah and Brendan scene together.

[@MELstolethestage]

Oh cripes. "We're just getting started." Aren't we just. I feel like this is going to be a whole lot of heart break. High-five to the writers!

[@cabrera052010]

thank you so much for posting :)

[@mayapj1]

Kieron is so amazing.....i m tears....it was like he was losing his own kids....it was so sad to see Ste lose his kids....Ste is amazing father

[@camilaspiv1186]

7:55 😭😭😭😭😭❣👄❣...

[@greymushroom1]

that is the most honest and good thing as a father figure Brendan ever told Leah. He was so selfishless when it comes to Ste it is so sad. that scene when Brendan told ste to go was so painful.

[@greymushroom1]

also can I just say, regardless of the situation Amy knows more than anyone that Ste loves Brendan. I am glad that she told him she wish Ste the best and he deserves it but its so bittersweet. I still love stamy and its just so sad all around.

[@mlorocker]

:( I totally know what you mean. Every new episode is so exciting and I can't wait to watch it, but then I remember that a new episode means the inevitable end to this storyline. Gah its so bittersweet, and I just hope the writers give us some sense of hope by the end. I don't care if I have to wait three years for a Stendan reunion, as long as they keep Brendan alive!

[@chapmanenigma2873]

the sad thing about the ep. is that it's the last time the kid's work with Kieron & Emmett. It was so cute the last few eps. It makes your eyes welt-up when you think about it.

[@icehulk2]

Amy again. She was always one of my favorite characters.

[@Laety]

(condt) EVERYBODY has issues, and he is a work in progress, trying to live a better life with the man he loves. I'm so sick of people judging Brendan all the time.just let the man live. Loved his scene with wee leah as well. very sweet

[@mukbangfoodiev2]

I understand why Amy had to take the kids with the situation going on it's probably for the best but can we just give it up to Seamus actually showing anger when Amy was talking trash about Brendan.

[@Iwzw]

That last scene killed me :(

[@2kiers10]

What I would give to have Brendan roll over and put his arm round Steven and hold him real tight in that last scene...

[@georgiagcd]

Without Brendan, Amy or his kids...I really want the writers to take Ste to complete despair. Not because I hate him, is the opposite, Ste angst is my crack.

[@SabrinaCrapCaptain]

at the end there was anticipating brendan to wake up turn around and spoon ste

[@iamrodrigues4939]

Jam Rodrigues

[@mlorocker]

And my complaint was more directed towards the writers for not including a hugging scene, not at Brendan as a character. I wish they would have allowed Brendan to hold Ste as he cried for his children, much like Ste held Brendan as Lindsay lie dead in the middle of the street.

[@shak15ti]

Thank you!

[@hopeangeleyes1]

Omg@Michelle Fraser! U could be on to something here! The Simon that Amy mentions could very well be thee Simon Walker! Imagine, down the road, Bendan somehow finds out about walker and Amy and goes to save their lives putting his life in danger only to make Amy realize how much Brendan has changed as a caring and loving human being. I just feel like Brendan is going to leave the show as a hero in everyones eyes! Oooooohhhhh, the anticipation is killing me!!!!

[@44Michellef]

I thought by now you understood that Brendan is not a conventional man! He would not have held Ste like that, Brendan is not that close to his kids! And he doesn't understand that kind of a dynamic between a father and his children! Brendan is a different dad to his children, than his dad was to him! But he is not the kind of dad that Ste is, to his kids! Being with Ste has helped Brendan understand how a dad is suppose to be to his kids! And the fact that he is so close to Leah has helped!

[@iluvjensen1]

Oh my god, break my heart why don't you. Who is the artist who sang the song at the end?

[@rajeshwari7521]

Brendan nice super men💜💜👍👍 💖😍💖😍

[@chapmanenigma2873]

It's so sad the see Ste hurt like this. Because he loves a man that other fear or dis-like; he loses the two most important things in his life; torn away from him. Ste is helpless to stop it & yet Brendan again tries to make sure Ste is happy by willing to give him up for the sake of Ste being with his kids. Not sure Ste realize that, but that it appears to me.

[@mlorocker]

K before calling me nuts, you might want to reread through all of my comments. I acknowledged the fact that Brendan was willing to sacrifice his happiness for Ste to be with his kids. But Brendan sending Ste away or leaving Ste isn't going to make Ste happy. How many times have they tried that already? That's like the first thing Brendan always suggests, and it must make Ste crazy because a life apart isn't a life worth living when it comes to Ste's feelings for Brendan.

[@KyuIsLove01]

I cried!

[@greymushroom1]

am I the only one that liked that last scene, it was bittersweet. although I would want Brendan to hold him I think he was giving him his space and giving he is the reason I think that may have to do with it as well.

[@44Michellef]

mlorocker are you nuts mate? What Brendan did was so unselfish, so caring, so loving! To love someone so much that u are willing to take a step back, and say if my leaving will let you be with your children, then I will do it! he wasn't trying to push Steven away! I just wanted Ste to know I love you enough to move out! I would leave if it means getting your children back! That was a selfless act, not cold, not selfish! Brendan truly loves Steven! And he would do anything for him! Even leave!

[@NanaOseiTutu]

Hey who sings that cover of Impossible at the end there?

[@partynboy]

That was James Arthur...winner of XFactor UK last 2 years ago :-)

[@chapmanenigma2873]

I wish they would have had Brendan go to Steven or Steven go to Brendan. Show how much they can look to each other for support.

[@mlorocker]

Yeah, Brendan came off as so cold in this scene. I just hate how he always tries to push Ste away when things get rough, instead of working together and supporting him. I guess its a bad habit of his, but its so frustrating. And hasn't Brendan learned that they will never truly be happy without each other. Allowing Ste to go with Amy isn't the answer. He should have told Ste he'd pay for him to go see the kids every few months at the least, knowing his bf was in such pain...

[@stanleycoleman]

ohhh writers, what are you going to do with kevin?? he's just been floating around this whole time, the suspense is killing me!

[@gabbieroca3745]

i kinda want Brendan Brady and Ste Hay as parents!

[@Laety]

Iagree..hollyoaks has the best music

[@lillys78]

I know that people wanted Brendan to comfort Ste and think it was a missed romantic moment between the two of them but there is nothing romantic about losing your kids. Good on 'Oaks for not going there.

[@realfredwithtires]

He wasn't pushing Ste away. He was trying to do the right thing so Ste wcould have his kids. He will do anything for Ste and if it means staying away or taking a bullet for him he will do it. Those are Ste's kids. Whether biological or not. Brendan will not come between a parent and their child or children.

[@alfredgrech4584]

good acting from stef,it'so sad kid left especially for lesh she was getting so close with brendan.amy was not fair

[@greymushroom1]

yes, kevin told the info about amy not knowing about brendan so he seem tocontact amy somehow

[@hopeangeleyes1]

Ste knew that if he went with Amy, he would no doubt still be miserable. He loves Brendan too much to leave him, that much is very clear. What an awful decision to have to make. A very very difficult dilema to be in indeed. Yes, i too wish to have seen Brendan cuddle and comfort Ste in the end. Where was the magic? I didn't feel it this time.

[@greymushroom1]

yea, I thought he did too. I don't think he is fully in this maybe he will change his mind.

[@CherryBlossomBlyue]

So Amy dissapears for months on end and then just comes back to take the kids

[@munash2]

Cant wait to see where ste goes after losing brendan! Amazing Kieron just amazing!

[@mlorocker]

@alwaysuseless After Ste and Brendan's first bedscene, Ste is resting on Bren's chest and has his arm around him. So I'd say no. I was disappointed that they didn't show Brendan holding Ste after Amy leaves in the cab. Missed opportunities there.

[@zoli2071]

It's so sad,that they only brought back Amy JUST to take the kids away..I thought that she'd stay..hope they will bring her back sometime in the future like they did with John-Paul(I see a possible relationship between John-Paul and Doug..they are setting it up with John-Paul and LeeAnn becomming friends- I hope itt will happen!)Also I hope no tragic ending for "Stedan"!

[@SociallyUnable]

Am I the only one who thought Kevin looked a little guilty when he heard Brendan talking to Leah? Also, Hopeangeleyes, You may be onto something. I really can't think of another reason they would have Amy randomly mention her boyfriends name in that moment or why else Walker wants Amy to have the kids. He keeps saying he wants Brendan to suffer, not die. Maybe his way of doing that is harming the kids. Hmmm....

[@partynboy]

So what happen to not having to choose between his kids and Brendan? In the end, he chose to be with Brendan...good job :-)

[@mlorocker]

Gah, I was dissapiointed in this scene :( I thought Brendan was gonna at least comfort Ste, knowing his heart was breaking. I wanted some cuddling and reassurance that Brendan would pay for Ste to visit his kids. Coulda been a really romantic moment. I guess Brendan was willing to sacrifice his happiness to let Ste go, but still...

[@icehulk2]

Amy, Ste and Brendan all did the right thing. But at the end Amy just had to take them. Still very sad. And it was nice seeing a

[@thewindycity9277]

Screw that shit, she most definitely is being illogical and unreasonable. That's not motherly concern, bullshit, that's comes out of simple bias hatred towards Brendan. Her whole rational is totally illogical. There's just no damn rational reason why Steven can't keep those kids. Her whole illogical rational is toxic. She can't see the forest for the trees. In the same way she simply can't see how completely Brendan has changed and how much he truly loves Steven and would do anything to protect him. Her hatred has blinded her from any ability to see and understand just how much Steven loves Brendan. Yep you're right, Brendan is a dangerous man, and danger seems to follow him. But that's the game of life we'er all playing in, whether we like it or not. Shit happens.The real problem with Any is that she's still on her self righteous high horse. After all those years of being a fucking bad mother, she get one brief single moment of clarity and she all of a sudden thinks she's better then Steven. Despite all the shit Steven has done and has gone through, he still remains the absolute best dad to those kids this world has ever seen. There's just no way that Steven would knowingly put those kids in danger. Amy just needs to grow up, and go Kick Rocks !

[@TheMdterp]

If I were in Amy's shoes and saw how Brendan beat Ste and threatened me while I was in the hospital I would've taken the kids too. Ste is a parent and who he chooses to be in a relationship matters. No way in hell I'd ever want my kids around Brendan.

[@valmiro4164]

Was he really expecting she'd let him raise their kids with a known criminal??

[@greymushroom1]

I know right lol I thought the same thing.

[@faith6833]

I want to know how Walker influenced the situation. Did he get to Amy somehow, because he acted like the kids being taken away was part of his bigger plan to make Brenden suffer. How could he have known that was going to happen???

[@44Michellef]

Kieron is even hot when he is crying! I love Steven!

[@pumbaaj]

Take a lesson guys: never father children out of wedlock.

[@SociallyUnable]

Yeah, They are available ;)

[@WickID74]

I can totally understand Amy not wanting her kids living with Brendan. Even though he has changed... evil people want to hurt him and could hurt her children in the process. What I'm wondering is... is the Simon she's dating Simon Walker? Did Amy ever meet Walker? I'm confused. I haven't read everyone else's posts, so has anyone else mentioned this? My heart broke seeing Ste in such pain. Brendan wanted to leave... Why couldn't Amy just stay for a while and see that everything's ok? :-(

[@Laety]

I used to love Amy but she really pissed me off in this episode. Shes just so judgmental and cold now..maybe it is also the acting on the actresses' part cause even the times she was trying to be comforting towards Ste, it came off really weak..Poor Ste..his scene scenes were heartbreaking esp. when he told the kids to blow kisses to him. God, Amy how could you ? How long are people gonna make Brendan pay for being the person he used to be? and even then he was not evil, just had issues .

[@hopeangeleyes1]

@anyusa0030 what about Noah!

[@lunarsafari]

This just seriously broke my heart. Poor Ste, I understand Amy's reasons because it is Brendan Brady and Walker is out for revenge but it does change the fact that its horrible to see the kids taken away from Ste.

[@alwaysuseless]

Do they disallow cuddling between two men in bed during the hours this airs in the UK? It was so unrealistic that Ste would be just left there to cry alone.

[@greymushroom1]

alot of guys do and they don't care for their child.

[@44Michellef]

Something occurred to me! The Simon that Amy keeps talking about! This man she went to Africa with,that's kind! Could she be talking about Simon Walker? The man that is trying to hurt Brendan, and destroy his and Ste's relationship? Steven I feel your pain love! I know how attached you are to your children, and how much you love them! And Brendan! You continually manage to surprise me how selfless you've become! The fact that you love Steven enough to put his happiness first! Is amazing to me!

[@hopeangeleyes1]

@Yusif Kanan...thank u!

[@lillys78]

Though similar, Brendan and Ste are not the same.

[@hopeangeleyes1]

@michelle Fraser...well said girl!

[@Fafounee]

i don't understand why Amy didn't let him go with them ?

[@hopeangeleyes1]

@Churst... no to what??

[@TheYaoilover25]

Unfortuantely amy you are being the bad guy...

[@hopeangeleyes1]

@Yusuf kanan...Mar7aba (hello in arabic) and well said :)

[@khuthiempfuni7586]

i have to admit , i like it when brandon suffer........

[@dancingsnake263]

Why do you hate Brendan?
