I can't decide if this is a hoax or simply very hard to verify.

If the character did exist, it doesn't seem to be notable on its own as I can find no information about the character. If it's fake, the article should obviously be deleted.

The Hollyoaks show has the largest list of characters I've ever seen for a show and they're well documented on Wikipedia. See Template:Hollyoaks characters for the numerous character articles. None of them mention anything about an Olly Cunningham. They do mention a Holly Cunningham but that's a female character that obviously doesn't fit the description given in this article.

A [Google search] for "Olly Cunningham Hollyoaks" produces no results outside of this article.

A Google search for "Phil Johnston Olly Cunningham" produces no results (the real name of the actor whom allegedly played Olly Cunningham).

I've never heard of the show before today I didn't go through every plot summary out there but I couldn't find anything about this character showing up on the show. He also doesn't appear in the article about his "long lost brother", Tom Cunningham. Using the term "long lost brother" for a 14 year old child doesn't make much sense to me either.

Lastly, IMDB has no page for Phil Johnston. There are two Phil Johnston actors listed and neither would be the right age to have played this character.

If the character is real, this article should be redirected to either to another related topic. If no one else can find information about the character, the article should be deleted. OlYeller21Talktome 00:00, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
