Kieron Richardson, star of the long-running British soap opera Hollyoaks, appeared on This Morning, where he spoiled the murder mystery “Who killed Amy Barnes?” He did. Or rather, his character, Ste, did (Ste being short for Steven, as weird as that is). Richardson was trying to avoid talking about the plot line, instead opting to talk about the amazing acting of his co-stars. And that’s where he got into trouble.

“All I’m gonna say is, Ashley Slanina-Davies, who play Amy Barnes, is absolutely fantastic in this episode. Even in the final scenes when I was … with my…” Richardson said before stopping and throwing his hands over his face, then letting out a desperate, “No.”

Things started going off the rails earlier in the interview when he was asked why his character could or could not have done it. Richardson stumbled over his words for several seconds before finally giving an answer.

After the mistake, he seemed genuinely concerned about losing his job. Subsequently, Hollyoaks sent out a tweet having fun with the situation.
