Third year student Gabriel Clark scoops up lead role on Hollyoaks

We're very excited to announce that third-year Drama and English Literature student Gabriel Clark has been cast in Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks as the new Ollie Morgan, replacing actor Aedan Duckworth.

Gabriel will continue to study for his degree at The University of Manchester while also working full time on the programme.

Gabriel played a smaller role on the series previously as Chris Neeson, who testified against Buster in his January 2019 abuse trial.

"I’m so excited to join the cast of Hollyoaks. Two years ago, I was part of the Buster storyline, so to be finally here, playing a lead role in Hollyoaks, it is very surreal." Gabriel said.
