Chloe Bruce  Chloe Bruce is a fictional character from the British Channel 4 soap opera, "Hollyoaks", played by Mikyla Dodd. The character first appeared onscreen in 2000. The character is noted for her storylines involving self-image issues and acting as the "agony aunt" within the serial. Auditions were held for the part. Actress Mikyla Dodd was member of Oldham Theatre Workshop under the tuition of David Johnson and through that she got an agent, who managed to get her the audition. Chloe was described as a seventeen-year-old at the audition and Dodd felt she was too old and would lose out to a younger actress, however she impressed Jo Hallow, when she returned home from the audition she found out she had secured the role. In 2004 it was announced that Dodd had decided to leave "Hollyoaks". Speaking of Dodd's departure, a Channel 4 spokesperson stated: "The cast were really sad to see her go, she became very much like her character and was always there for people. Mikyla became a bit of an agony aunt for the rest of the cast." Dodd has commented that she liked the fact her character looked a little bit different to everyone else on the show. She also stated that her character always seems to be there for everyone, somewhat of an agony aunt. The character had plenty of self-image issues. Dodd also states numerous times that she is known as "the fat girl from Hollyoaks". Her character has also been described as 'breaking the mould' as the first plus-size character to feature in the series. In 2009, five years after the character had left the series, a BBC health organisation slammed Dodd for using her character as a role model in making overweight viewers think it's okay to be overweight. In the serial she was dubbed 'Chloe "the moose" Bruce'. She formed a close friendship with Max Cunningham (Matt Littler) and Sam "O.B." O'Brien (Darren Jeffries) which saw her on the trail of money making scams. Dodd later stated that ultimately Matt Musgrove (Kristian Ealey) is the love of Chloe's life. Chloe arrived in Hollyoaks in late night special series "", as a school friend of Max and O.B., she soon proved her worth when she relieved them both of their virginity. They formed a close threesome, with the boys often enlisting Chloe to help them with money making schemes playing Mother Christmas when they started their own grotto.
