I Am A Swede

That's not uncommon on soap operas, that grown children live at home with their parents. Maybe not as common in daytime as in primetime soaps though. "Dallas", "Falcon Crest" and "Dynasty" all had that set-up. It never made any sense even then why millionaires would be happy having a single room in a house they shared with their parents..... 🫤

Looking at spoilers (and knowing how this show works) it seems like my fears were right, and this will be all about Charity's pain going forward.... 😒 What Dr. Todd did to Jacob will probably be forgotten and never mentioned again, and everyone will forgive Charity's lies because of her suffering. 🤢 You just have to look at how fast Mack changed his tune. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes harder on Ross than on Charity.

I knew it! I knew they would screw this up! Apparently Serena's grandfather is Jack's cousin. The problem with that is that Jack didn't have any cousins on his father's side, since his father didn't have any siblings except for a brother who died young in WWII. And apparently Serena have met her family before since she and Sarah talked about meeting at Jackie's wedding. Who this Jackie is is anybody's guess. Another never-before-heard-of relative who really shouldn't exist? 🙄 Oh, and another thing. Who thought it was a good idea to bring back Kev? Lord have mercy.....

So, the new Sugden made her debut yesterday, and I guess it's typical she had her first scenes with a Dingle..... 🙄 It was a bit unrealistic that Charity just blurted everything out to a complete stranger like that, but plot over character is very much Emmerdale these days. I'm so curious how Serena will fit into the Sugden family tree, and that's really where my interest stops. I have very little faith that they will do justice to a new Sugden. The family has been an afterthought for far too long and the Dingle obsession on the show is too strong for me to believe that Serena will make any difference.

Beautifully said!

Power outages hit France as it records hottest day since measurements began There are warnings in place for us as well. Temperatures are expected to climb well over 30 degrees Celsius later this week, maybe even up to 35. 🥵

Well, Luke & Laura and EJ & Sami became popular, so in the warped minds of these people they might think it's worth a try since it worked before. 🤢

Emmerdale will never improve as long as the obsession with all things Dingle continue. I have very little hope for the new Sugden arrival. She will ultimately be connected to the Dingles in some way, just like everything else on the show. 🤮

Sad but too true.... Emmerdale 2026 is a very different place from the days of Annie, Amos and Henry.
