I think he was even married to another man, and that was the deal-breaker for Kathy.

 

Has it only been twenty years?! Feels like Charity and Cain have been polluting the air-waves much longer than that.

I have no problem with Emma Atkins, but I cannot stand Charity (or any Dingle) and I have to admit that it's hard to read an article that is nothing but complimentary about her/them.

Asked whether she's keen to stick with Emmerdale for the foreseeable future, Emma replied: "More than happy, yes!"  

 

Interesting that Suranne Jones auditioned for Charity. I wonder how the character would have turned out with her in the role.

I've mentioned something like that happening before, too. Lisa could have been the murderer like Gwyneth was, but now that wouldn't fit. Maybe Faith can take her place? Or Belle, before she offs herself. However, because they have mentioned a plethora of Dingles existing through the years with various extras and short term roles as well, there'd have to be some Dingle event where a plane crash or explosion kills off all the off-screen Dingles. Except for Tina. She deserves a reprieve.

Considering she (presumably) hasn't been mentioned in donkey's years, I like to think she's disowned them all. Maybe she's the killer, then?

 

 

The children can survive, I'm not a monster. Their last names are Sugden which is a good start. Andy can come back and take care of them since we're playing fan-fiction. Daz too, after Adam briefly returns to get closure with Victoria after Moira is forced to turn herself in for Emma's murder by the killer. Adam takes Isaac with him. Scott and Kelly return and change April's name to Windsor. Samson and Lydia are run out of town, getting a rare reprieve from the killer. Ross retrieves Moses. Charity, with help from Jamie, convinces Kim to protect Noah, reclaiming his Tate name once more. Liv can move in with Victoria. Rhona and Paddy get the hell out of dodge with their sproggs. We really just need to make sure the Dingle name itself is squashed once and for all.

 

As for the killings themselves, I would start with Cain. He's done the most damage. He gets the most brutal death. Jasmine returns to help Debbie cope and they reunite, until Debbie is murdered. Jasmine leaves town heartbroken. Sam's death would be gentle. Charity gets the most epic death. Mandy and Marlon's deaths are swift to avoid their wailing for our benefit.  Aaron and Chas die together. Belle's voices come back and convince her she's the killer so she kills herself. End with Zak. 

 

Okay, I don't if know I missed anyone but I think I'm done with this craziness now.

I can agree with most of this, except the bolded part. Liv may not be a Dingle technically, but she is one of the worst, if not the worst, non-Dingle the show has ever had, so she will have to meet the same fate. Preferably in a most gruesome way......

@I Am A Swede this is probably a bit late on Emmerdale for your tastes but someone put up most of an April 1996 episode (I've also put up a few episodes on my Jerry Sugden channel).

Meanwhile, Inside Soap mentioned Kathy...mostly to make a dig at Malandra Burrows (the soap press seemed to have issues with her).

The 1990s were still very much watchable. The Dingles hadn't begun to monopolize the show the way they did later, and back then I still had hope that they would be written out sooner than later.  Boy was I wrong!

I used to wish that Kathy, and other beloved characters, would return to rescue the show, but now I've given up those ideas. The show is most likely beyond rescue by now, and will remain Dingle-infected to the bitter end....

    • This is a public message board. There is no inserting oneself into a conversation etc. If it is something that is posted, it can be replied to. But, no, that's not even close to what I said. There was no presumption & also no should. And, your replies are totally unsatisfactory to me, so I am outta this.

      date: Wednesday, May 14 | Christopher Dunn, Jazmen Darnell Brown | Michael V. Pomarico Vernon feeling frisky? Oh, la la! I love a couple that are older in their years and are still vital sexually. That's beautiful and should be more naturally acknowledged. And yes, we are talking about the Articulettes some more. It looks like Bill's hand problems are still existing; it is definitely giving multiple sclerosis, and the child bride is beginning to notice now. Nicole going off on Andre is fire; I love that no one is safe from her firestorm. Dani performing reverse psychology on Nicole was brilliant, and now she's catching the passing glances between Andre and Dani. Eva, what are you trying to get out of by connecting with Katherine when she's made it known you are dead to her? I feel for Eva, because she wants that connection she was robbed of by Dana's manipulations. Not the "Homewrecker Helper", haha. Is that the new flavour from Hamburger Helper? 'Cause I would try that out. I love that Anita called Vernon "vocally challenged" while remarking he might have improved by now. I appreciate that Nicole is not placing blame on Andre and his knowing of Ted's secret, as easy as it could have been to do so. Bradley is the superior (and only parent) to Samantha and Tyrell, and I love seeing his connection with them both. So Deadbeat is inviting Eva to eat pizza with the family? This is... interesting. I am wondering why he's so invested in Eva. I really don't think Bill and Hayley should be doing the deed in his office, especially with what happened with Mike and Becky, Carrie, and Stefania. Dun-dun-dun, Nicole is flat out asking about what's going on between Andre and Dani, and I am here for it. I adore Jacob and Naomi's dedication to helping out June; it makes me wonder if there genuinely is more at play. Anita attempting to keep her composure while playing the piano as Vernon hits every single note but the right one is hilarious. It's those kinds of character traits I adore. Oh, we have got a full house right now; Samantha is inviting Jessica (who I am wary of) over, and Deadbeat bringing Eva home. Dani Dupree Hamilton... now is not the time to keep a secret from Nicole. It would've been much easier to come out and say you've been sleeping with Andre since the time of Bill and Hayley's wedding. Now this is going to become a bigger thing than it absolutely needs to be. Looks like the child bride's idea of "sexy" is messy and unprofessional, something that Bill Hamilton Esq. has a storied history of. Samantha is sassy AF, and I am loving it! It's a nice pace change and lets us see she's got some spice mixed up in that blood. Poor Jessica is wondering why she's included in this group discussion Deadbeat is having and the reveal of running for president. Uh-oh. I feel like this is going to come out, and it's going to affect innocent Tyrell, which is not fair. The reunion of the Articulettes is a go! Let's see how this goes, because as Anita remarked, this could be a disaster. Of course Dani went to immediately screw with Andre. Of course she did. Serenity Beauty & Hair? Are we getting a possible beauty salon set? Omg, please! Sharon isn't into a reunion; I guess that means Sharon is one of the Articulettes, then?! Notes: The product placement is really being sold; I cannot blame Proctor & Gamble, though, nor can I blame CBS Studios/the NAACP for allowing it, either. As a Tide user, I can say I use the original. It's the best. Oh, so we're producing a vinyl sleeve mock-up? Oh, I love that. The attention to detail is key. The story of the Articulettes is definitely a mirror of the Supremes during the Diana Ross era. The continued use of music on this soap is sublime, and it is rich. The outdoor exterior of Orphey Gene's is so much; I kind of wish it were an expanded, real set. Maybe once the budget comes back around, we can expand it? The growing use of June is interesting; it's nice seeing the developing story of this character, especially when on other soaps (i.e., The Bold and the Beautiful) we've seen this turn quickly or become a blink-and-miss type of story. Knowing that Clifton Davis (Vernon) can actually sing, it's impressive seeing him purposefully hit every single wrong note imaginable.
    • Who was Anita calling and why did they hang up?
    • I think he needs to back to GH as Dillon!
    • I just hope someone Febreezes that room after. 
    • Haha, ok - now confirmed, yesterday was his last day

        That ending with Eva/Samantha and the family was really cute. I'm glad they're accepting her into the family in some way.
    • I have no problem with the teens being on. Tyreel seems cool so far, but angry Sammy Joi can kick rocks.
    • True, and I'm still waiting for someone to tell me what Eva was doing in that random casino room. That made no sense to me.  
    • The dialogue was not written great, but Ms. Tunie brought it alive for me.  She's so great that I felt I was the room with Anita Williams Dupree.  Ms. Tunie is so alive.  I forget she's an actress and am captivated by the character.  Which is an achievement when the storyline isn't that interesting yet. (in contrast to a few other actors that I feel are just actors saying lines.)
