The Bold and The Beautiful<\/a><\/em> has never been a soap that shied away from killing off popular characters. While several of those aforementioned deceased suds citizens have made miraculous returns from the dead (Here’s looking at you, Sheila and Taylor!), others like Caroline Spencer Forrester (Joanna Johnson<\/a><\/strong>), Storm Logan (William deVry<\/a><\/strong>) and the unforgettable Stephanie Forrester (Susan Flannery<\/a><\/strong>) have remained in Soap Heaven. It turns out one Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton<\/a><\/strong>) was thisclose to joining their ranks.<\/p>\n Daytime Confidential<\/em> caught up with Clifton on the red carpet for the\u00a052nd Annual Daytime Emmys<\/a>. The three-time Emmy winner revealed B&B<\/em>‘s Executive Producer and Head Writer\u00a0Brad Bell<\/a><\/strong> initially planned to kill Liam off!<\/p>\n “I was supposed to be on my way out. That was the plan. No, yeah, it wasn’t like this master plan, tricking the audience thing. I mean…Mr. Bell called me up to his office about probably a year ago now and said, ‘Listen, I really love this character but I think this [killing Liam] is what I want to do.”<\/p>\n It’s hard to imagine B&B<\/em> without lovably fickle Liam ping-ponging back and forth between warring stepsisters Hope (Annika Noelle<\/strong><\/a>) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood<\/a><\/strong>) every year or so but it was almost a reality, according to Clifton. Speaking of Liam’s roller coaster love life, Clifton also chatted about all roads leading back to Hope for the publishing exec.<\/p>\n Watch our full\u00a0red carpet interview with Scott Clifton<\/a> below.
