Hollyoaks adds two soap legends to special anniversary tour show

Hollyoaks has added two soap legends to its special 30th anniversary tour.

Nick Pickard (who plays Tony Hutchinson) and Ashley Taylor Dawson (who plays Darren Osborne) will both be completing the line-up for the live stage show.

They will be joining previously announced stars Jorgie Porter (Theresa McQueen), Kieron Richardson (Ste Hay) and Gary Lucy (Luke Morgan), for a fun-filled tour celebrating Hollyoaks' iconic history.

The tour consists of three shows which will take place in Manchester, Glasgow and London this October.

Fans will get the chance to meet the soap stars, ask all of their burning questions and take a walk down memory lane. The event will include previously-unseen Hollyoaks footage, exciting games and even some musical performances.
