I think it was Kirin, the 17 year old (the actor is 20something) who is dating/living with Vanessa, who works at the vet's office with Rhona and Paddy and used to be in love with Rhona. His father is the gorgeous Rakesh, who is engaged to Priya.

She looks 39 to me, just a good 39.

Sometimes I think Kirin looks good and other times I think he looks sickly (he also sounds like he has a cold at all times).

If it wouldn't make Priya sad I'd say Vanessa and Rakesh should get together.

I just hope they won't go the obvious Kirin/Priya route.

She definitely looks older than the Kirin actor.

Do you think Finn dating this HIV guy is going to cause Emma to do something inappropriate/wrong?

And what type of soap is Emmerdale when it comes to wrong actions/tricks? Do these things ever get addressed and called out so that everyone knows so and so did this? Like will Emma ever be exposed for the car trick she played on hot Adam and Aaron? Or her role barn incident with the boys dad? Or will they just fade into the background. Part of why I ask is that I like when characters face their comeuppance but eventually say they are truly sorry and work hard to earn forgiveness.

Lisa and Cain.

I actually think this is the strongest story Andy's had in years. I'll be sorry to see it wrapped up. The only part that bothers me is that so many in the village care more about hurling abuse at Tracy and making sure Andy "sees" that he's grieving in the "wrong" way, rather than actually supporting and caring.

I wouldn't mind seeing Tracy knock Chas the !@#$%^&*] out.

Naw Chas is my goddess and can do no wrong. Even when she's screaming at Aaron (who I think deserves it. Sorry I know he's had issues but I hate when people resort to self pity).

Thanks for the names. I really hope this little monster pervert doesn't hurt Belle. Even though she's dumb as rocks there's too many people who would be heartbroken if the idiot girl got hurt.

Lachlan.

I like Chas, but I can't take any more squawking about Andy. YA KNOW WHAT, I'M GLAD I DON'T CARE ANYMORE! YOUS TWO DESERVE EACH OTHER!!!

None of that helps Andy. Chas never gave a crap about Andy, and Andy never gave a crap about Chas; he never will unless he sticks it in her at some point. She's just upset about Katie and using him for her own guilt. It's tedious.

I wasn't thrilled with the crying scenes but otherwise Matthew Wolfenden did well. This story has been the making of David and Alicia as a proper couple, and I love the family unit with Leyla and Eric. I hope they won't split David and Alicia up for any silly reasons, ever.

Thomas Atkinson has been wonderful as Lachlan throughout this story. I still have no time for a Chrissie and Lachlan Redemption Tour, but he's had a difficult task and has really played a blinder in the role.

I'm liking Carly more than I thought I would, mostly because she hasn't been as aggressive and pointlessly nasty as she was in her first episode. She and Ross aren't bad together either, although she's no Donna. I will say it doesn't make a ton of sense for Emma to want them together, as she wouldn't want him to be with a woman who would stand up to her.

Ryan Hawley is literally sex on legs. Damn damn damn.

Emma doesn't want them together. She knows Ross' reputation as a playboy and clearly sees that he is hung up on Donna so has pushed Carly in his direction to help get him back to that. No way does she even remotely believe it would be possible that they'd become anything substantial. Of course, unfortunately for her, she has no idea how much it'll probably blow up in her face once Carly and Ross find out about each others connection to Donna.

What's Carly's connection to her?

And how does Emma know about this Donna person? I thought she didn't know much about her kids lives?

Anyways I'm still devastated that Ross cheated on me like that....the punk. But he's adorable still and I can't blame the girl for wanting him.

WOW...my respect for Chrissy rose significantly. That's....wow.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
