Character Creation
John Pickard was cast as Dom Reilly, the half-brother of Tony Hutchinson, in 2005.
In 2010, it was announced by Channel 4 that Pickard had quit Hollyoaks and would depart later in the year. Speaking of his decision, Pickard said, "I've really enjoyed my time on Hollyoaks and I shall be very sad to leave, but after five years, it's definitely time to move on. I've loved working with Nick and it's been great living in the North — Liverpool is such a great city and we've both made friends for life up here. I'll really miss the social side of this job because the people really have made it all the more fun. Dom has been such a great character to play but now I'm looking forward to taking on new roles."
