Curtis Pritchard laughs off viral Hollyoaks acting fail
1 Feb
Summary
- Curtis Pritchard reenacted a viral, panned Hollyoaks scene on Love Island.
- Fellow Islander Ciaran Davies co-starred in the humorous sketch.
- Viewers praised the comedic recreation as better than the original.
Curtis Pritchard recently brought a moment of unexpected humor to Love Island: All Stars Best Bits by reenacting a notoriously panned scene from his 2021 Hollyoaks appearance. Alongside fellow islander Ciaran Davies, Pritchard revisited the viral moment where he and his brother AJ played twins Marco and Jacob. Their acting was widely criticized at the time as 'wooden,' particularly Curtis's delivery of the line 'How's Trish?'.
The recreation saw Pritchard repeating his infamous line to Davies, who responded with a dramatic flair, leading to both islanders collapsing in laughter. This lighthearted revisit allowed Pritchard to demonstrate a good sense of humor about his past acting venture. Viewers reacted positively, with many commenting that the Love Island sketch was funnier and better acted than the original Hollyoaks scene.
This self-aware moment contrasts sharply with the original backlash. In 2021, soap actors publicly criticized the casting of the Pritchard brothers, questioning the decision over trained actors. Despite the past criticism, Pritchard's willingness to laugh at himself during the Love Island segment has been well-received by the audience.
