It's very true to life though - falling in with a bad crowd, and so on. I do think he is basically a decent person so hopefully it won't go on too long. 

 

I just hope this will mean more Leyla...

 

Emmerdale has such believable teens, especially compared to the 30-year old Louise on Eastenders.

I agree. That's one thing that I love is that teens are teens on this show. 

 

Speaking of teens, oh Gabby! She is a hot mess but she is a character that every person knows growing up or can relate to.

 

One thing that I am loving too is that there are no teen pregnancy stories! Praise God!

She turned 31 earlier this month but I don't want to be mean...

 

I know. I was sure we'd get one with Belle, or with Jacob and Gabby. I'm so glad there's been a break so far. The last was when Gemma had an abortion in 2013. That's a lifetime for modern soaps.

I'd be happy with a teen being addicted to drugs story over having a baby. 

 

Mind you, I don't mind teen pregnancy as it is an epidemic, but I hate it has been made a staple and some twisted right of passage of young girls on soaps.

 

I didn't mind Gemma's pregnancy back in '13 b/c it ended fast. 

 

I'm not worried about the teens on here getting pregnant anytime soon. *knocks on wood*

 

EastEnders, on the the other hand, I am.

On the positive side, this may make it easier for those in the US to see Emmerdale. On the negative, I’d say if you want to save anything from Youtube or Dailymotion or wherever you might want to do so quickly.

If it is easily available in the US I hope people will get to see Ashley's story, if episodes from this year are available. It reminds me so much of material Marland or Agnes Nixon or Bill Bell would have done...far more than anything on American soaps in years.

    • @BoldRestless @fivethej Apologies for the late reply! But yes as far as I know I do still have the tape. I remember asking for instructions on this wayy back in 2020, but I will definitely reach out. Only issue is I know my VHS tape collection is in my basement, which looks like the Chancellor mansion attic at the moment.

      Also I while I still have DVD/VHS combo player do they even hook-up to modern TV sets or still need a CRT TV? Just asking as I know some folks being off off guard when trying to hook older equipment like some VHS sets and older game consoles quite unsuccessfully 
    • It's evident that there was reset of Derek and Ashley's storyline. The attempt to build tension over Derek not resting enough after being injured on the job was not working but the tension over moving in together is. The characters are still not thrilling, but today they at least were worth paying attention to. The writers do want Ashdre and they are easing toward it again. 
    • Yes, I believe that is the case. ABC wanted Siobhan and Joe to be a very popular couple and apparently didn't think Sarah Felder was glamorous enough. I don't know if this story is true, but I heard somewhere that Felder told everyone off at her farewell party because of the reason she was fired. If it's not true, it should be!

    • And so it's Andre and Ashley again? Why don't they go ahead and make something bad happen between them? I don't trust the stereotypical vibe. I don't.
    • I guess neither Stephanie or Leo are ever going to investigate the gaping plot holes in the Bob-ette storyline. Other random Thoughts for Thu If Sophia was going to leave Tate alone after he was faint and had a fever, thank goodness she's not planning on raising a baby! Finally, Xander expressed that this situation with Philip was not Victor's desire.  Victor clearly wrote his desires in his will right before he died, and those plans did not include Philip at Titan. I can't with the laws of Salem.  Adults with nut allergies can sue for negligence when they eat a bakery known for using pistachio in their scones, but people discuss insider trading and kidnapping like it is no big deal. It is so simple to research why they have no standing to sue to Sweet Bits (regardless of what the server said). I ignored Brady and Kate being on the board, because that was plausible.  But, Abe is on the board of directors?  That's a stretch. I'm staying mum on Versavix for today, I've had my say....    
    • I do love that the episode ended with Kat exclaiming when she was alone "Gotcha!"

      For real. Leslie is going to lock her up in a basement
    • It is amazing how everyone in GC just swaps partners and is instantly in love and their previous relationship never happened. All while everyone’s exes live in the same town and go to the exact same 4 places as each other.
    • No to Andre/Ashley. I'm not sensing any connection. Kat is playing a dangerous game going against Silk Press Sheila.
