Marnie arrives in Hollyoaks revealing that she has been working with her son, James, with the inadvertent help of Cindy, to drain her ex-husband, Mac, of his finances as he was awarded everything by the courts when they divorced. She threatens to take away their daughter, Ellie, if he does not comply. Mac then gives her a large amount of money to keep her away from Ellie. Before she and James leave Hollyoaks, her other son, Nathan, accidentally reveals to her that Alfie is the biological son of Mac and Cindy. Marnie is furious and goes to The Dog in the Pond where she reveals to everybody that Alfie is Mac and Cindy's son. Marnie then attempts to persuade Diane O'Connor (Alex Fletcher) and Tony Hutchinson (Nick Pickard) to sell The Hutch to her in an attempt to get closer to her children. However, their several attempts fail. Marnie, with the help of James, steal Diane's laptop to see whether if the restaurant is close to bankruptcy. It is then revealed that the restaurant could be bankrupt by Easter, so she and James then return to the restaurant in a bid to persuade Diane and Tony into selling the restaurant. However, Diane's nephew Scott Drinkwell (Ross Adams) catches them with the laptop as they return it. Marnie later learns that Tony earned money from betting with Darren Osborne (Ashley Taylor Dawson). She later informs Diane of this, leaving her upset. Marnie later helps Ellie open up a beauty parlour. At first, Ellie's beauty parlour is unsuccessful. However, when Ellie helps Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham) and Tegan Lomax (Jessica Ellis) raise money for charity, her business starts to become a success.

After informing Alfie's family, Cindy then tells Marnie that Alfie's cancer had returned. This leaves Marnie shocked and upset. Marnie then tells Cindy that she had tried to be a good mother to Alfie, but she couldn't love him as much as she loved Nathan, James and Ellie. Marnie, Cindy and Neeta then put aside their differences so that they can all be there for Alfie. After learning about Rachel's death, Marnie becomes devastated. She later meets Freddie at The Loft. The pair start talking and they then both go back to Freddie's house, where they have sex. The next day, Marnie learns that Freddie is going on a date with Ellie. She pretends that she and Freddie haven't met before and she introduces herself as Ellie's mother, leaving Freddie horrified. Marnie follows Ellie and Freddie as they go on a date at The Loft. While Ellie leaves, Marnie tells Freddie if she doesn't back away from her daughter, then she will tell her everything that happened between them. The next day, Freddie breaks up with Ellie, leaving her devastated. However, Ellie and Freddie later get back together again, much to Marnie's dismay. Since they got back together, Marnie has been constantly threatening Freddie to leave Ellie alone, but Freddie refuses. Freddie even blackmails her at one point by using a picture of Marnie kissing him. He said if she tries to break them up, he will show both Ellie and Mac the picture and they will never forgive her for what she did. Marnie and James continue their plan into getting The Hutch. Some of their plans have include getting Scott to distil alcoholic drinks, using Myra McQueen (Nicole Barber-Lane) to bankrupt Tony as she wants £8,000 from Tony as compensation for having a neck injury caused by Scott and manipulating Scott into burning The Hutch down. Marnie and James are successful in buying The Hutch and rename it to "Nightingales"; at its opening, Ellie is furious since her mother told her that she would turn the restaurant into a cosmetics shop to fulfill her daughter's dream.

The character and casting was announced on 24 January 2016. It has been said that Marnie will waste no time in causing "chaos for Mac" and has been billed as "a complex, intriguing and hilarious matriarch with a big broken heart" and that she can start a fight in an empty room.

Nick has been billed as "fun-loving", "the popular boy who all the lads wanted to be friends with and all the girls fancied" and someone able to make "a dodgy deal like any true Savage and he's also a typical ladies' man".[32] It was reported that Nick would catch the eyes of several female residents of the village.[32] It was also announced that Nick would be involved in a storyline which would see the issue of sexual consent explored.[33] The show worked with Rape Crisis and youth charity The Mix when creating the storyline and show bosses hoped that the storyline would "divide opinions", but promised that the issue would be "sensitively explored".[33] The storyline would begin where Ellie and Nick have sex after getting drunk during Fresher's Week, but the following morning Ellie would wake up with no recollection of what happened.[33] Davies said that he was "really interested" in seeing his character's progress throughout the story. He added that it was "a very important issue" which carried "big responsibility".[33] Davies said that he was "honoured" that the show had entrusted him with the storyline.[33] Zoë Bailie from The Mix said that the story "couldn't be more timely" and added that "working together with Hollyoaks, we hope to break down the myths surrounding consent. We want to help young people understand what consent is, what it isn't and importantly how to make sure they have it before entering into a sexual experience."[33]

Goldie McQueen, played by former Waterloo Road actress Chelsee Healey, made her first on screen appearance on 9 November 2016. Goldie was introduced as a new member of the McQueen family.[34][35] Healey had previously been announced to be joining the show on 16 July 2016, when she confirmed the news on social media and was spotted reading through a script on the show's set,[36] but details of her character were not announced until 26 July 2016.[34] Of her casting, Healey said, "I am absolutely thrilled to join Hollyoaks. I've grown up watching it so to be in it is unbelievable. It was an irresistible opportunity, especially to play this character."[34]

It was later confirmed that Goldie would be joined by her 15-year-old twin sons, Prince and Hunter (Malique Thompson-Dwyer and Theo Graham).[34] Goldie and her sons arrive in search of their "posh and distant relatives" Myra McQueen (Nicole Barber-Lane), Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) and John Paul McQueen (James Sutton), who are not pleased by their arrival.[34] Goldie was billed as a "tough, gobby and abouselty shameless [...] good old-fashioned McQueen" that would "never back down in a fight" and always get involved in a scam to earn quick money. A show spokesperson said that Goldie would arrive in the village "in the hope of mooching off the family she's scarcely had anything to do with", but that the only thing she cares about more than money is her children, who she had when she was a teenager.[34] Healey expressed her disbelief at playing a mother, but stated that Thompson-Dwyer and Graham were "fantastic to work with" and that all three were "delighted" by the new family unit. She also compared the wardrobe to her younger self's wardrobe.[34]
