Hollyoaks spoilers: Joel Dexter’s dark past revealed as Shane threatens to send damning video to Warren Fox
The trainee priest is in turmoil after Shane revealed he has video footage linking him to Katy Fox's heroin death
JOEL Dexter's dark past could be revealed on Hollyoaks this week as Shane threatens to reveal his secret.
Shane recently plunged the trainee priest into uncertainty when he showed him video footage that links him to Katy Fox's dying moments.
Joel and Bart McQueen, who returned to Chester last week for Celine's funeral, supplied Katy with the heroin that killed her.
But Joel's dad Warren Fox has no idea they were involved in his sister's death.
This week, Hollyoaks viewers will see Shane put pressure on Joel, threatening to send the video to his dad and expose his killer secret.
Warren will even warn Joel to stay away from Shane after realising what he is capable of, while Sienna confronts Joel after seeing him hand Shane money.
But Shane loses patience with Joel and sends Warren the video - and if he sees the footage, the consequences are sure to be explosive.

Rory Douglas Speed, who plays Joel,
He said: "I found out fairly early doors, but I'd already shot five or six episodes before I had my character and storyline meeting. So when I found out about that twist, I was buzzing.
"It was a bit of a shock but it was great, because it was just more and more that I could add to the character.
"Obviously my initial thought was wondering would Warren find out. Now it's all coming to the surface, it'll be interesting to see where it goes and how the character changes.
"If Warren finds out, I can assure you that it'll be quite a dramatic scene. It'll actually be quite nerve-wracking to find out how Warren reacts."
- Hollyoaks airs weeknights on Channel 4 at 6.30pm with a first look episode following at 7pm on E4
