A source said: “Annie’s loved her time on Hollyoaks but the time for Sally being a full-time character is at an end.
“She will bow out in heroic scenes during the dramatic stunt with the scenes being kept top secret.
“It’s not a defined end and the door has been left firmly open for her for a potential return down the line but when the show jumps forward a year, Sally isn’t in the village any longer.”
The show’s big relaunch will see it catapult a year into the future after Channel 4 slashed the episode count by 40 per cent to just three per week.
