Long-standing Hollyoaks actor Kieron Richardson has revealed his favourite character from Brookside.

Soap stars past and present turned out for a special event on Monday (October 20) to celebrate the Channel 4 drama's big milestone with a special screening in Liverpool.

As well as Hollyoaks stars, also on the red carpet were stars of Liverpool-based soap Brookside, which has been brought back to screens after more than 20 years for one of the Hollyoaks anniversary episodes.

Richardson said everyone coming together is a "really special time for the city" and that it feels like a huge family.
