More infoJoin us on WhatsApp Coronation Street viewers were in for a surprise on Thursday night, with some speculating a Hollyoaks crossover was unfolding. Dylan Wilson’s (Liam McCheyne) knife possession, linked to Mason Radcliffe’s (Luca Toolan) murder, landed him in a Secure Training Centre (STC). The episode, which aired on ITVX that morning, saw Dylan trying to keep his head down, but his connection to teacher Daniel Osbourne didn’t go unnoticed by the other inmates. One inmate, Brody, took an interest in newcomer Dylan, leaving him unnerved. Dylan confessed that he and Daniel were neighbours, prompting Brody to advise him to keep this information under wraps.

Spoilers released last week had hinted at this development, with Dylan left fearing the worst. The spoilers also revealed that Brody would extend a helping hand to Dylan, who faces hostility from some of the lads in the centre, reports the Mirror. Brody steps in to fend off the boys and tells Dylan to stick with him until he gets his bearings. But is Brody harbouring a hidden agenda, and should Dylan be wary? Viewers were somewhat sidetracked during these scenes after recognising the actor portraying Brody. Brody is brought to life by former Hollyoaks actor Ryan Mulvey, who played the villainous JJ Osborne on the show just last year.

JJ found himself behind bars after his heinous acts against his twin sister Frankie Osborne were exposed. In a gripping plotline, Frankie bravely confronted her brother in court for sexually assaulting her, an ordeal compounded by his vile claims that she was fabricating the abuse. However, justice prevailed, and during the trial, JJ confessed to his crimes before receiving his sentence. With the actor reappearing on our screens so quickly, this time in a setting reminiscent of a jail, some viewers speculated about a potential soap crossover, pondering if it was JJ who appeared alongside Dylan.

This theory was swiftly debunked as Ryan’s character on Coronation Street is actually a teenager named Brody. Nonetheless, this didn’t stop soap enthusiasts from buzzing on X, with one fan posting: “Please let JJ from @Hollyoaks be the same person now in #corrie.” Another chimed in, commenting: “So JJ now in prison in #Corrie, is this a crossover or is he playing a brand new character?” Someone else observed: “Did anyone spot JJ in last night’s #corrie in prison with Dylan? Wonder if its a crossover and the character is also called JJ?” Coronation Street is available to watch on ITVX.
