John Paul McQueen is beaten up in Hollyoaks.

John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) is reeling when he’s brutally attacked in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 6.30pm (See our TV Guide for full listings). 

The drama begins when Scott Drinkwell (Ross Adams) enlists John Paul’s help to try and woo a potential investor for the youth club. 

The Loft is hosting a gay club night and Scott thinks it would be a great opportunity knowing that investor, Kenneth, will be there, to do some schmoozing. 

However, Goldie McQueen (Chelsee Healey) is worried about her alcoholic cousin, John Paul, being around booze at the club.

John Paul reassures her that he’s feeling much better and has even made plans to see his son, Matthew Jesus, the following week.

At the club night things get off to a rocky start with investor Kenneth when Scott puts his foot in it but John Paul swoops in with some smooth-talking and manages to save the situation. 

Meanwhile Goldie, who is spying from the wings, is worried when she spots a homophobic group of men making fun of the party goers.

 She publicly calls them out but things soon get very heated.
