But this wouldn’t be the first time Kurt has been a figment of Tony’s imagination.
In 2013, Jeremy reprised his role in Hollyoaks Later when Kurt appeared as a vision of Tony’s mind, protecting his son Harry Thompson from danger.
Jeremy admitted shortly before his re-appearance it would be “easy” to write his character back into the main programme.
He exclusively told BANG Showbiz: “I didn’t die on screen so yeah it would be easy for Kurt to come back.
“I could make up a story in about half an hour and I’m not even a script writer.
“If people on the internet go, ‘Oh, I wish he was there,’ then the bosses may well take that onboard. I will cross that bridge when I come to it though.”
