  • Ellie Mills tells Scott Anderson "People keep staring, they probably think I've buried Toby under my dad's patio or something". This is a reference to the famous storyline in the now defunct soap opera Brookside, also created by Hollyoaks creator Phil Redmond, in which Trevor Jordache was stabbed in self-defence by wife and buried under the patio.
