Annie Wallace has no idea what has happened to her character in the 'Hollyoaks' time jump after she was axed from the show.
Annie Wallace hasn't been told what her character is doing in Alicante after she exited Hollyoaks
The 59-year-old actress has played the role of Sally St. Claire on the Channel 4 soap opera since 2015 but was told earlier this year that her time was up and was "very upset" by the way it all happened.
Several other cast members were axed in a major culling and the episodes have been cut right back as the programme has been forced to make cutbacks.
As part of the budget cuts, the producers decided to move time forward by a whole year, and this week, Annie admitted she is non-the-wiser as to what Sally is doing in Alicante.
Responding to a viewer on X, she said: "I'm as interested as you are as to what Sally's doing in Alicante. I wonder if we'll find out why? I really don't know #hollyoaks."
She added: "I wonder if we'll find out why? I really don't know."
Annie admitted the final days of filming were "really quite intense".
She told Metro.co.uk: "We were told at the end of March. There was a big day when the cast were told [if they were staying or going]. Some people came out and said it and others kept it to themselves so I decided to keep it to myself – to let people find out in the fullness of time. I just carried on.
"It’s been mostly ignoring that it’s going to happen and carrying on with work.
"It was when it was headed to the last few weeks that I started to get a bit emotional. I started thinking what costumes I was going to take home with me and things like that.
"The last filming days were really quite intense. My last day was July 31, so I’ve had a month to decompress – and I have decompressed. I was very upset. There is no lying about it. It’s my career and I love the show."
The soap star was sure her sudden exit would come as a "shock" to fans and regrets that her alter ego never managed to find love during her time in the village.
She said: "It will be a shock. There’s been no hints about Sally. There’s certain people on forums that think Sally has outlived her usefulness but I disagree. The one thing I would’ve loved is for her to find love."
