Hollyoaks spoilers follow.
Hollyoaks’ Frankie Osborne will make a tense accusation on New Year’s Eve as part of her stalker plot, but she turns out to be wrong. Viewers know who has been sending Frankie threatening messages after the true identity of her stalker was revealed earlier this month.
Frankie strongly suspects that her dodgy police officer ex-boyfriend Sully is behind the death of her brother, who was attacked and killed in prison after Frankie opened up to Sully about the abuse.
Following JJ’s death Frankie began receiving threatening text messages and confronted Sully, who denied tormenting her and stealing JJ’s ashes.
The couple made up and Frankie praised Sully for protecting her by having JJ killed, though Sully didn’t admit to anything. Frankie was later seen meeting with detective Dodger, where it was revealed that she was wearing a wire and working with Dodger to expose the crime.

While Frankie still thinks that Sully is her tormenter, the soap confirmed that Dee Dee Hutchinson was the person behind the messages after it was revealed that she had been speaking to Frankie’s abusive brother in prison, with the Hutchinson family finding out the truth on Christmas Day.
In scenes set to air next week (but set on New Year’s Eve), the Hutchinson kids sneak into The Loft because they don’t want to stay in on New Year.
Diane is furious to find that her children have sneaked out without permission and Darren offers to go with her to find them.
