I Am A Swede

No! Absolutely not! 😱 She's even more wrong for the role than Rebecca Budig.

Finally completed the first 100 episodes of Emmerdale Farm. We're into October 1973, so roughly a year's worth of episodes. I think we're approaching Jack's departure now, and quite frankly the character feels a little out of place. He worked well in the beginning as the outsider but now he just feels slightly detached. He's part of the family, yet apart from it. So his absence will probably not be very noticeable. I'm waiting for the moment when Henry moves into the Woolpack and begins his partnership with Amos. It should happen in the near future. That was an inspired idea, and changed the dynamics of the show. It also gave Henry a more stable footing in the village.

The huge, glaring omission in this whole story is obviously R.J. His absence makes absolutely no sense, and he should be right in the middle of it all. Eric should also be more prominent, but then Brad Bell couldn't get the narrative he wants. Because I will never believe that Brooke would side with Hope and Carter against Eric. She would gladly do it to spite Steffy, and right now probably also to spite Ridge, but she wouldn't do it to Eric.

Happy Saint Lucy's day!

"If he'd go back to Taylor...." I'm sure what he meant to say was when, not if, because we all know that's what's going to happen.

Taylor and Jackie also pointed out Stephanie's creepy obsession with Ridge and his lovelife. (And also got slapped for it)

Did we find out for certain that it was Sheila who wrote that letter?

It's just bad writing to push Brooke towards supporting Hope and Carter thereby creating an opening for Taylor and Ridge, again.... But while I certainly could see Brooke turning against Steffy and possibly even Ridge, I just don't buy that she would do that to Eric.

Same old story as always on B&B I see. The woman always gets all the blame.

No that's a different scene, without a slap.
