Danny Mac is making a big comeback to Hollyoaks! The former Strictly star will be reprising his role as Dodger Savage after leaving the soap in 2015. This time, his return will be permanent, not just a guest appearance. Mac has already started filming for the show, and we can expect to see Dodger back on our screens in January, reuniting with the Blakes in a dramatic storyline.
According to a source, the show’s bosses are excited to bring Dodger back and reunite him with his family in the village. This includes his sisters, dad, and even his dangerous grandmother. The producers are looking to solidify the clans in the village, and Dodger’s return is a key part of that plan. Mac himself is thrilled to be back on set and filming for the show. He expressed his excitement at being part of the show again, especially under the leadership of producer Hannah Cheers.
Dodger Savage first appeared on Hollyoaks in 2011 and had his fair share of drama before leaving in 2015. His character went on the run after taking the blame for his daughter pushing his brother off a rooftop. Fans of the show have been eagerly anticipating Dodger’s return, especially after his co-star Anna Passey teased his comeback on Instagram. She posted a photo with Mac and other cast members, sparking speculation among fans about Dodger’s imminent return.
Since leaving Hollyoaks, Mac participated in the 2016 series of Strictly Come Dancing and finished as a runner-up with his partner Oti Mabuse. He also made appearances in other TV shows like Trollied and Doctors. Hollyoaks airs on Mondays-Wednesdays on Channel 4, with a streaming premiere at 7 am and an E4 broadcast at 7 pm on the same night. Full episodes are also released on YouTube a week after their Channel 4 premiere.
