" Hollyoaks star Karen Hassan has revealed that she is likely to remain in the soap for the &amp;quot;foreseeable future&amp;quot;. The actress - who plays Lynsey Nolan in the Channel 4 soap - said that although she misses her family and friends while filming, she is also enjoying her time away from Northern Ireland. &amp;quot;Everybody&amp;#039;s always at the end of a phonecall and my friends were over at the weekend - and my mum&amp;#039;s coming over in the next few weeks,&amp;quot; she told What&amp;#039;s On TV. &amp;quot;I miss the closeness and the familiarity of home but I feel settled here in Liverpool and it&amp;#039;s my home for the foreseeable future. &amp;quot;The whole thing for me has been a whirlwind. I always say when you start on Hollyoaks you don&amp;#039;t just get a job, you get a whole lifestyle.&amp;quot; Hassan recently returned to Belfast to film her role in BBC drama The Fall alongside her Hollyoaks co-stars Emmett Scanlan and Bronagh Waugh.  She explained that she enjoyed having the opportunity to live with her mother during the production. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve wanted to come back to Belfast and do something for a while, whether it was a play or a film or a series like The Fall and it was lovely to fly back to Belfast and I&amp;#039;m able to stay at my mum&amp;#039;s house while I&amp;#039;m filming. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s funny - obviously I was over the moon because me, Emmett and Bronagh are all in Hollyoaks together playing kind of a family so it was amazing for us finding out the news kind of consecutively that we&amp;#039;d got parts in The Fall. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re all over the moon that we all ended up in it but randomly our paths don&amp;#039;t really cross that much in The Fall. I was filming a scene with Emmett yesterday but our characters didn&amp;#039;t know each other.&amp;quot; Crime drama The Fall starring Gillian Anderson debuts this winter on BBC Two in the UK. Karen Hassan recently said that she wants Hollyoaks serial killer Silas Blissett to make a dramatic return to the village. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
