Riley had been left in a critical condition after being shot by bad boy Walker and ultimately failed to pull through in hospital - leaving his loved ones devastated. In real life, Norbury filmed his Hollyoaks exit a few weeks ago and has since been busy working on Training Daze , a comedy-drama pilot he has written and produced himself. Digital Spy recently caught up with the actor for an exclusive chat about his future plans - and his reaction to Riley's shock departure. How are you feeling now that your time at Hollyoaks has come to an end?

Riley had a failed wedding, he had a baby, another wedding, and he was involved in the late-night episodes too - so I think I've done alright and there's been plenty going on!

The fact that he couldn't make up his mind between Mitzeee and Mercedes was probably always going to be his downfall in the end. It's been a bit hectic, so sometime soon I'd like to maybe have a bit of a lie-in, and go and sit on a beach for a couple of weeks! How long has Riley's exit been in the pipeline for, and when did you finish filming? I knew I was leaving quite a while ago now, so then it was a case of waiting to see what my leaving story would be.

We decided in early summer that I was going, and then we ended up having a chat in July or August time when they said they'd had an idea of Riley being killed.

Is there a part of you that wishes the door had been left open? But at the same time, sometimes it's nice to make sure the door is completely shut before you go, because it kind of takes that option away from you. It also means that you're getting a good exit and getting the chance to test yourself a little bit before you go.

Was it difficult to keep such a big plot twist to yourself? I hope people were still surprised by the exit storyline!

What can you tell us about your final day on set? It was good, though, plus I think we managed to finish early that day which wasn't bad!
