Hollyoaks - Kevin Sacre (Jake)

How did Kevin get that scar on his lip and how did he and Ali Bastian get it together? We found out in our live webchat...

Good evening everyone, thanks for coming and here is tonight’s webchat guest… Kevin Sacre who plays Jake in Hollyoaks!

Kevin Sacre : Hi there, hope you've been enjoying the show and don't give me any questions that are too difficult! :)

chel : heya
p u? : Hey Kevin
clares : hey
i love Kevin!! : hi
frankie : whats it like kissing becs?
Becki : Do you get nervous when doing on screen kisses?

Kevin Sacre : Best job in the world - I can never complain about that!

Meera : LOL

Kevin Sacre : Not really Becki, because it's part and parcel of the job, but when it's the first time with somebody it can be a bit strange.

Carol : How did u get into Hollyoaks?

Kevin Sacre : I auditioned - the normal route. I had my first one in London and then a recall in Liverpool and then I found out the next day.

Lisa : what was the response like surrounding the lisa/jake/becca storyline?

Kevin Sacre : Indifferent, some enjoyed it because they liked seeing Jake with Lisa but lots of people didn't like the fact that he'd cheated. Lots of people would come up to Ali and say 'I can't believe he's cheating on you!' it was quite funny.

michellesilver : how does it feel to be an actor in a popular TV soap do u get loads of ppl stopping u on the street?

Kevin Sacre : Heh, yeah it does affect your everyday life, people do stop you quite regularly and camera phones are the work of the Devil! It's part and parcel of it all so I don't mind, but I always prefer it if people come up to me and ask me if they can have a photo rather than just taking one.

xanderc : do you like cake?

Kevin Sacre : Yes I do like cake :)

sexy : do u think ur sexy?
Hayley14 : love ya xxxx

Kevin Sacre : Not at the moment after working today and being quite tired.

Sarah-Kay : Where did that sexy scar on you lip come from?
Myers : how did u get that scar on ur lip?? or is that a to personal question
Themole : what’s that on you're lip?
x-x Hayley x-x : How did you get the scar on your lip?

Kevin Sacre : I always get asked this. I had a hockey ball hit me in the mouth a week before my 18th birthday and it split my lip and broke two of my teeth.

x JoDiE x : ouch
Eathy : pooor u
Hollyoaks_rulz!! : when did u start to play the trumpet??

Kevin Sacre : When I was nine. I don't play it anymore, I play the guitar now instead (badly). I had to give up the trumpet when I split my lip.

Lottie Plimmer : Hey Kevin. Why don't you smile in the programme. Can you actually smile in real life?

Kevin Sacre laughs
Kevin Sacre : I'm quite a smiley person actually but Jake is having a bit of a bad run at the moment. He will smile eventually I'm sure, I hope!

Nala : If you could kill off 1 member of hollyoaks cast who would it be and how would you kill them

Kevin Sacre : Flippin heck! I can't answer that!

sharee : LISA!

Kevin Sacre : It would be Jake actually as he's so depressing!

x JoDiE x : TONY

Kevin Sacre : I'd make him spontaneously combust! But I don't really want to go so I won't do it.

holly_oaks : JAKES MUM

Kevin Sacre : Oi leave my Mum out of it!

linds : is your mum like frankie?
Lauzifer : Is your real mother anything like Frankie?

Kevin Sacre laughs, she'd kill me if she read this, but she is slightly, yes. My Mum is a hairdresser, so they're similar on that front and my Mum is a terrible gossip. She'll kill me!

holly_oaks : sorry, she is a bit tarty! ;-)
sharee : aaaww mumys boy
Dan_Lewis : what do you really think of all the nice lasses you work with on the show??

Kevin Sacre : They're great, they are all my mates so it's the same as how you feel about all your female mates. I don't fancy any of them basically.

Emma : I was sssssoooo jealous watching the proposal scene, was it weird proposing to your girlfriend but not really?

Kevin Sacre : Yes it was. It was more of strange day because I'd been head-butted by the horse for real, so it was a bit of a surreal one that. It was strange getting down on one knee to Ali, but also... quite nice :)

dizzy_dream : haha
Livi : Hi Kevin, wot are your favourite hobbies? do you enjoy gardening?
justin_is_buff : Are you interested in plants and gardens in real life?

Kevin Sacre : Err… No, I must say gardening isn't one of my hobbies. I'm pretty normal really, going out with mates, having a laugh, computer games - the normal lad sort of thing to be honest. Driving is quite high up there too.

Gina : So did you watch Hollyoaks before you stared acting in it?

Kevin Sacre : I caught it now and then but the year run up before I was in it I was working everyday filming Night and Day so I didn't get back in time.

chellybobs : Who are you closest to off set?

Kevin Sacre : That's an easy one, Ali obviously as she’s my girlfriend in real life too.

becca : do you keep in touch with any of the night and day cast?

Kevin Sacre : Yes, every now and then I speak to Steph who played my sister Della. Stuart is up here now and I bump into Shane quite regularly. Also, some of them I knew before I even did the show.

Chimene : what do you think is the sexiest part of your body? I say your eyes MMMMMM

Kevin Sacre : When I use it - my smile, or at least it used to be until I got a hockey ball in the mouth.

Lucy Smith : Are you anything like Jake?
Sarah xx : hehe

Kevin Sacre : Probably not really, no. He's a little bit straight and narrow for me. I look like him though.

Steven : does ali resemble becca in anyway?

Kevin Sacre : She's as clumsy.

Becki : What's the best part about being in Hollyoaks?

Kevin Sacre : I'm doing what I'm doing - acting. That's the best job I could ever do.

Nat : Do you get lots of fan mail??
Sarah xx : do u get a lot of fan mail?

Kevin Sacre : I'm terrible at replying to fan mail. I do intend to but then things happen and I just leave them in places and then come back to them and then leave them in more places. I promise to try and get better at that though.

X_Orkney Lass_X : what’s your favourite storyline you have done?

Kevin Sacre : I really enjoyed getting together with Becca, for obvious reasons! Also breaking the news to Becca that he'd been cheating - that was quite gritty and good.

holly_oaks : What is your favourite album of all time EVER?

Kevin Sacre : Ohh that's a hard one...Favourite album...
Kevin Sacre thinks
Kevin Sacre : There's so many... The new Jack Johnson album is pretty awesome.

justin_is_buff : never heard of him!

Kevin Sacre : The original Jamiroquai ones are very good too - Planet Earth was good and Space Cowboy.

Siobhan-n : What is your ringtone on your mobile phone ?

Kevin Sacre : My ringtone is the Gorillaz at the moment.

xRosiex : What’s your fave choccie bar??

Kevin Sacre : Cadbury's Caramel.

dizzy_dream : what football team do u support?

Kevin Sacre : Chelsea

luckyme : were you and ali together before jake and becca then?
Hollyoaks iz wiked : mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Kevin Sacre laughs
Kevin Sacre : No. Jake and Becca getting together was Kevin and Ali getting together as well, quite embarrassing.

justin_is_buff : are you a secret romantic?
kelz : awwwww

Kevin Sacre : I hope so! Ali is shouting down the stairs that I am!

justin_is_buff : you sound like you are!
Hollyoaks iz wiked : bless
sexyhiphopdancer : Kevin - What Is The Funniest Moment You've Experienced On Set?
-fiona- : awwwww
vita : awww, she's a lucky girl!

Kevin Sacre : Ohh blimey. The most surreal was being dressed up in all the S&M bondage gear for the late night special with Caprice. It was a very, very funny night.

gem : my boyfriend fancies becca will you give her a kiss from him pleaseeeee
Hollyoaks_rulz!! : ALI IS A LUKY GRRL !! TELL HER THAT
matt : ur a lucky guy

Kevin Sacre : That's a bit worrying, but I'm sure I can oblige!

Lisa : hi kevin, i really love hollyoaks but i don’t feel that it gets the recognition it deserves do u feel that way?

Kevin Sacre : Yes, 100%. A lot of people think it's the show it used to be and it's come a long way since then. It still has a bit of that stigmatism attached to it.

hollyoaks-extra : have you been working today? how long are the hours ?

Kevin Sacre : Today I have been working but I've had a different sort of day doing a photo-shoot. Usually my hours are anything between 8am and 9am for a make-up call and then finishing at around 7pm.

EmmaClareBrown : oooo with or without clothes?
123456789 : how rude

Kevin Sacre : Haha with clothes! But it was a pink top (not sure about pink) - it's in Inside Soap in two weeks time so you can vote for me for sexiest male! And best couple! If I don't win that by the way I'll blame all of you!

i love Kevin!! : ill vote!
gem : you have my vote
Scottish chick : i'll be voting both
Emma : course ill vote!
James90 : did you like the late night hollyoaks episodes?

Kevin Sacre : It was great fun to film because it was so different. I got to jump out of a plane, there was the bus with the roof taken off and I got to mess about with Caprice - not a bad job!

Dan_Lewis : is ali up for sexiest girl??

Kevin Sacre : I think she is, yes.

Kassia : Has the Chlamydia storyline ever affected you in real life?

Kevin Sacre : Heh, no. And even if it had I wouldn't be stupid enough to say so on a webchat with you lot!
Kevin Sacre laughs

Soph : haha
holly_oaks : When was your last really good night out? Who were you with and where did you go?
sukirocks : haha

Kevin Sacre : It was a day out at Alton Towers on Monday with Jessica Fox and Ali Bastian and Simon.

Maria : if you had to leave hollyoaks where would you like to work? and would you like to do any movies as i think you'd suit a hero type film x

Kevin Sacre : I hope one day I'll move into film - it's the reason I started acting so touch wood...

Poppy : can u sing?
Emma : aw you'd be great in films

Kevin Sacre : Some people would say no, some people would say yes. I'd say I think so.

Nala : What animal do you think you most resemble and why?

Kevin Sacre : Animal - probably a wolf because of chest hair.
