Sol Patrick

Sol Patrick is a character from the British soap opera Hollyoaks. Patrick is the show's "resident bad boy" with a history of homelessness, a stint in a Young Offender Institution, and a temperament that causes him trouble. For the cliffhanger final episode of 2000, Patrick and his girlfriend, Jess Holt (Frankie Hough), were trapped by a fire "in the Hollyoaks local". When he left the show, Patrick was "fleeing the area for his own good" with Holt. Portrayed by Paul Danan, Patrick appeared on the Channel 4 soap opera from 1997–2001. In 2017, Danan said he was speaking with the showrunners to bring back his character, though a representative for Hollyoaks denied any such talks. In 2018, he continued to publicly voice his support for Patrick's return.
