Rafael Nadal: Spaniard to miss Australian Open following hip injury

^^ I miss record stores....

Then maybe a fansite would be more your cup of tea than a discussion board where not everyone thinks alike?

Wow, I don't think I have ever seen anyone look so uncomfortable while trying to smile as Kelly Monaco does in that picture....

You never heard this?

Thorsten Kaye as Ridge Forrester. Fine actor, but completely different from Ronn Moss, who remains the definitive Ridge.

Viv was a fantastic character. One of the best in Emmerdale history. Not always likeable mind you. She could be a real bitch sometimes, including to Shirley. That made it even more poignant of course when Shirley died saving Viv's life....

I think this is one of the most (if not the most) iconic scenes from B&B ever. Years of pent up emotions boiling over and Brooke finally slaps Stephanie back. Delicious. It's made even better by that classic B&B music cue right at the end.

You're right on all counts why killing Noah makes more sense. Personally I only need one reason..... 😈 I wonder if we could possibly get an appearance by Scott in connection to this.... They mentioned him earlier last year when Cathy went to stay with him, so it wouldn't be completely out of the blue. If Ben Freeman is unavailable I'd be open to a recast. (Frankly I wouldn't mind a recast even if he is available). A comeback for Scott to the village would make this death a tiny, tiny, tiny bit less pointless.

Sometimes I just can't stand this show, or more precisely the complete morons in charge of it.....

If my math isn't completely off this means that one third (33%) of the contract members on B&B had zero appearances in December!

Emmerdale, early 1994, those last few precious months B.D. (Before Dingle) Little did we know about the horror that would soon arrive and infect this show beyond salvation.

And yet I see you advocating on a regular basis for Brooke to have another scandal and sleep with Liam. Wouldn't that go against what you've just written?

It doesn't really feel like a new year's here until you've heard this....

On B&B that hardly qualifies as a scandal anymore....

It's that time of the year again..... 🎆🎉

Why would anyone want their own version of the world's most annoying, whining, self-pitying character?

You're right. That could be a fascinating story. Perhaps a bit too controversial....and honestly, do you think Brad Bell would be able to tell a story like that? I seriously doubt that.

However much people might want to reverse Ridge's paternity that is not possible. Rick was involved with both Phoebe and Steffy and we also had Ridge and Bridget developing feelings for each other (thankfully that got cut very short), and undoing Ridge's paternity would have disastrous consequences with these stories in mind.....
