Hollyoaks bosses have cast Nadine Mulkerrin in the role of newcomer Cleo McQueen, Digital Spy can exclusively confirm. Cleo is the teenage sister of recent arrivals Porsche and Celine, who made their first appearances on screen in November as part of a shake-up for the McQueen clan. Billed as a brainbox, Cleo is very different to her sisters and will bring a new flavour to the family once she makes her debut. As a new recruit for the sixth form at Hollyoaks High, Cleo will also be featuring in storylines with the shows teenage group - who will soon include Trevor Royles son Dylan, Tony Hutchinsons son Harry and another young character who will be part of new family The Lovedays. Hollyoaks executive producer Bryan Kirkwood recently told Digital Spy: Hollyoaks High with its teachers and pupils is still a significant part of the show with Tom, Peri, Nico and newcomer Dylan. Cleo McQueen and Harry Hutchison - played by the fantastic Parry Glasspool - will be joining Holly in the sixth form alongside Zack Loveday. While I am pleased that the show has grown up and tells stories for all of the cast, Id like to find a better balance and explore more rites of passage teen stories as well. The casting of Cleo completes the new branch of the McQueen family, who are the nieces of fan favourite Myra. Mulkerrin has previously played the role of Chloe in BBC One sitcom In With The Flynns. She has also had guest parts in Waterloo Road, Doctors and Still Open All Hours. Cleo will make her first appearance on Monday, January 26 at 6.30pm on Channel 4.
