He has a "hero complex" where he feels obliged to help those close to him. Omole told Daniel Kilkelly of Digital Spy that Vincent has a "sweetness of him [that] is attractive" to viewers. [2] Vincent has a Nigerian accent but Omole is from London. As his parents originate from the country, Omole can project a thick Nigerian accent. But he did tone the accent down knowing that a broad audience watch Hollyoaks. But Omole felt that he struggled to find the right level of projection. [2]

Friendship with Phoebe Jackson

One of the character's main friendships is shared with Phoebe Jackson (Mandip Gill). A continued theme of Vincent needing Phoebe's friendship has been developed. The storyline written meant that he could not trust anyone. The duo have been used to portray homelessness and Omole believed it was an experience used to form their friendship. [4] Vincent arrives alongside four other illegal immigrants who are discovered hiding by Jacqui McQueen (Claire Cooper) and Phoebe in a scam arrange by Trevor Royle (Greg Wood) . [5] Daniel Kilkelly from Digital Spy later announced that the character was a possible love interest for Phoebe. He added that Phoebe would be impressed with Vincent when he administers first aid on Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) after she collapses in Chez Chez. [6]

Gill told Kilkelly that Phoebe does not expect to see Vincent again after she set him free. She explained that Vincent and Phoebe have "a lot of things in common and I think there's instant chemistry there". [7] Phoebe does not know Vincent well but there are signs that they are compatible. She is impressed with Vincent taking control when Maxine collapses and wonders if he could reside in the village. But Vincent worries about getting Phoebe into trouble and is loath to embroil her in his staying in the United Kingdom illegally. Though Gill revealed the formation of a "really nice friendship" and that Omole had become her frequent scene partner. [7] Gill also teased another aspect of Vincent's story. Phoebe had long been friends with George Smith (Steven Roberts) and Vincent's presence causes problems. She was excited to explore how Vincent would continue to affect the Phoebe/George friendship. [7] Phoebe obtains a counterfeit passport from Trevor but it results in her being kidnapped. Gill told an All About Soap reporter that Phoebe is unaware of the danger. Trevor holds Vincent prisoner and threatens to murder him unless she leads him to Jacqui. The McQueen family con Trevor and Vincent is released. [8]

Sexuality

"Where Vincent is from, he could be sent to prison for his sexuality, or people in his local village or town could even kill him. So Vincent isn't just running for his freedom, he's running for his life. It's very, very important that he finds a way to stay in the country." [2]

—Omole on Vincent's background

Vincent is homosexual and this is first addressed on-screen during June 2013. His first love interest is George who kisses resulting in Vincent's admission. [4] Vincent's backstory has been detailed within the show and during promotional interviews. Homosexuality in illegal Nigeria is punishable with prison sentences totaling fourteen years. Omole stated that Vincent's family did not accept him. They urged him to seek refuge in the United Kingdom for his and their safety. Vincent perceives his sexuality to be an illness. [4] Omole worked closely with the Hollyoaks research department and LGBT charity Stonewall to correctly portray the issue. He learned a lot about the consequences of homosexuality in Nigeria and branded it a taboo subject. He felt that it was an original, unique coming out story that was important for Hollyoaks to portray. Omole stated Vincent needed to face his fears instead of continuous avoidance. [4] In July 2012, Executive producer Bryan Kirkwood told Kilkelly that Vincent's storyline with George and Phoebe would become a prominent one. [9] He praised the storyline for being "quite unique" and called in an "important issue story". He added that a Nigerian asylum seeker escaping persecution for being gay is a first in the soap opera genre. [9]

As Omole has stated, George is the first male Vincent becomes attracted to. This leaves the character unsure because is the early process of accepting his sexuality. Developing feelings for a man only proves more difficult for Vincent to accept. [4] The actor told Kilkelly that Vincent feels guilty about Phoebe and is worried about destroying her rapport with George. He concluded that the story was about not being able to help who you love. Two people with "warm hearts" acting without intent to heart Phoebe. [2] Gill has branded it a "sticky love triangle". She added that filming the story had scenes of tears, laughter and "bitching". [10]

Anthony D. Langford from TheBacklot.com has bemoaned the pairing of Vincent and George. He stated that they have no chemistry, nothing in common and should not be together. He described them as "extremely awkward and so forced". [22] But Langford praised the acting, writing and basis of Vincent being an illegal immigrant. He added that Vincent's plight of being gay made "compelling and real" viewing. [22] Months later he stated: "The thing is all the people in this story are likeable and the actors are appealing and talented. But the core of this is Vincent and George as a couple. And that just doesn't work, ruining the whole story." [23] He also criticised Hollyoaks for stating that all involved characters behaved innocently; as he believed Vincent and George's actions to be "mean". [24]
