I don't understand why everyone was so upset about Noah going to prison for his stalking. I thought that was like a rite of passage for the Dingles and that Charity would be proud of her son for carrying on the family tradition.

Emmerdale won BEST BRITISH SOAP!

PAIGE SANDHU won Best LEADING Performer!

The Dingles won BEST FAMILY!

MC (Marlon) won BEST Dramatic Performance!

i don’t know But ED has the most loyal fanbase and the best. Everyone I know hated nearly all of them but yet they voted for them. Loving it! They really took a pee this year

Those experts were definitely against Emmerdale tbh. 
Paige was robbed Villain of the year. Nothing against Maximus Evans from Corrie but him winning Villain of the Year made no sense. The reaction from everyone just proofed that

I mean even that Gray actor from EE would’ve made more sense than him.

Best Duo/onscreen partnership was definitely bs too. No way in hell would the public voted for EE’s Lacey/Gillian. I really thought it would either go to our beloved Isobel/Bradley from ED or Kieron (Ste) and Anna (Sienna) from Hollyoaks..

Best Single Episode made no sense either. I did watched Doctors but no way was that episode better than Emmerdale or Oaks.. I can assure everyone that if the public would’ve voted that this award would’ve gone to EastEnders and the Southend episode.

they should scrap the jury and let US/the audience vote for it all. But good show overall tbh

Emmerdale is now in the position Corrie and EE used to mainly have where the panels know they will likely pick up viewer-voted awards so they use slots to for less popular shows.

I cannot get through Emmerdale these days. I'm happy for the cast and crew, some anyway, but I'm not sure what other shows I would have chosen. The soaps are truly in their last days...like so much else.

I'm torn between being horrified at the clown show that was Meena winning an award, and being happy for her considering how ugly the atmosphere on the set allegedly was. 

Sorry to hear they barely acknowledged Sheila Mercier's passing.

Yes, I just watched the In Memoriam montage on Youtube, and I'm bitterly disappointed that Sheila didn't get more attention. There should have been a scene with her, just like there were for Paula Tilbrook, Barbara Windsor, Johnny Briggs and June Brown. That oversight made me both

I kinda enjoy Corrie/ED for what it is.. The hate crime story was really damn good from Corrie.
Emmerdales Meena was what I expected from a mentally challenged women that is losing the plot. Marlon and his stroke was definitely such a a-game story! That proofed that Marlon‘s actor can act when they throw better scripts at him.

EastEnders is dead weight for ages. Hollyoaks is hit or miss but mostly annoying coz they always aiming for shock value.

Paige/Meena carried Emmerdale on her back tbh. The minute she was gone it became so dead. I really enjoyed her run. I worked with people like Meena and have seen they collapse which made me tear up to see her win. The panel tried to screw her over but the loyal fanbase supported her and ED! 

I loved to see Millie from Corrie winning but our little girl April from Emmerdale was really good. I was rooting for both of them

Ofc it’s nothing new but it has become more common than before. These British Brats getting more and more violent from year to year. This is one of the most realistic Storys in a while with the stroke one. 
and the mystery girl that said sorry is a interesting part. 
 

On FB people have blamed Nicole for it. She should‘ve just walked away and not provoke them. But she just stared at them and that chick asked for booze. In what world are we living in when we can‘t even look at embarrassing teenage girls acting out? Does that excuse violence?

    • And her evolution was so subtly done. There was nothing like the depraved shows later on, like Game of Thrones, where they said a woman needed to be raped in order to find empowerment. The layers of Laura were what got me hooked on Knots, somewhere in the season 3 repeats. And I agree that her becoming a therapist would have made sense - look at how much her trauma over her mother drove her decisions early on.
    • I think that the problem with Laura was that she had grown to love herself and saw her value in both herself, her career, and her marriage.  She had this inner strength and confidence that Lynn/Bernard didn't know how to harness/write for because they were more interested in generating conflict amongst emotionally immature people. Karen/Mac and Gary/Val were all immature/stubborn to a fault even though they all had grown/evolved.  So the Latham's could key into their essence/history to generate the standard soap opera tropes and stories for them. Even the season 8 conflict with Laura's pregnancy and Greg not being cool with it didn't diminish Laura's fire and strength.  You saw how she was able to move on and live her life as a single mother because she'd already done that after Richard took off.   I saw her response to Greg's kissing Paige as 'that's my husband and I can't change him.. but once I find something better, I'll toss himself'.  She wasn't emotionally tied to him nor his money.. and I think that was partly why she was such a unique and interesting character in the nighttime soap world in the 80s.
    •   They actually had great chemistry to as friends in the scene I felt. A shame it was the first onscreen interaction. Looks better than Bill/Hayley’s house. I absolutely loved that! I feel the exact same way. This is just facts. Those scenes today between them were electric.
    • If The Real Housewives of Dubai is on hiatus/pause (a.k.a. done), then we need a way for Caroline Stanbury to come back to Ladies of London.
    • I hate quick snip scenes.  Such a tired hold-over from the 1980s.  And that nonsense does not belong on BTG.  Bring back the long scenes.  
    • And a great......and a great.....
    • Eva packing, thinking about how good the Richardson's house smells.

    • In light of yesterday's news...I figured it was okay to bump this up. And probably do a rewatch.

    • I don't really read spoilers, but Perry Shen seems to come and go so even if this is an "exit" it's probably not permanent.
