Uh oh! Looks like Rakesh is about to be exposed. This is about to be interesting. 

 

@DRW50, I think you were the one to compare Finn to Emma. Yeah, I am totally seeing it now. He persistence to win back Kasim is going along the lines of what Emma would do. 

 

I've totally checked out when it comes to Rhona & Pierce. That story/pairing are ruined for me once they made him a rapist. Again, such a total waste. 

 

On the one hand it's a shame they went the cliche psycho route with Pierce, but the control aspects of the story and the acting is keeping me interested. I just wish it wasn't going to be all about Paddy in the end. 

 

Finn saying "it's just a matter of time" made me uneasy to say the last. Yes it's Emma all over again. I just wish they could have let the character be happy. He and Kasim could have had potential, and the hooker, Nathan, was gorgeous. I don't know if they still plan to have him back with Kasim but he's going to have to change a lot (Finn). I thought Joe Gill acted the scenes well but I wish the story was not so weird. 

 

The stuff about Charity and Bob cracked me up. 

 

Nicola Wheeler is such an underrated actress.

Nicola Wheeler is very underrated. I hope this reveal with Rakesh leads to something larger. 

 

Now you know that gay characters on soaps can't be happy. They have to be miserable. Every. Single. Last. One. 

 

The Bob and Charity stuff had me cracking up too as they'd be such an odd, unexpected pairing. 

 

The Pierce story is just too painful for me. I can't get over them making this fine, strapping man into a rapist. He wouldn't have to force me down b/c I'd willingly lie down each time. 

The humour surrounding Hunk Night at The Woolpack, and the following day's misunderstanding re. Bob and Charity, was so fantastic. Absolutely loved Kasim checking out the ass of one of the stripper's as he arrived at the pub. 

Jesus! Finn is truly becoming his mother each day. I do find it sad that Kasim's family won't accept him for who he is though. However, Finn needs to learn boundaries. His desperation to have Kasim is cringeworthy. I just hope he doesn't go pushing Kasim off a bridge in the future like his mother. 

 

Kudos to Nicola sacking Kerry's stank ass. Ugh! I am so glad that Nicola did what Rishi or Jai couldn't. Finally! Someone who has balls is in the factory. 

JIMMY: You should be ashamed of yourselves!
PRIYA: Oh believe me, we are. But that's not going to stop us from begging.

 

What a line!

Yuck, Debbie is back....

I knew that's what this would be about.  Yes, same old Debbie stories. The Charity comedy bits and the brief return of that crazy comedy lady who seems to have popped in from Corrie made it better for me. 

 

I will always have a soft spot for Debbie but they haven't gotten the character right in a long time. 

 

I just hope if we're going toward Debbie/Ross again it's not as awful this time around.

@DRW50 & @I Am A Swede are you guys excited that Emmerdale finally won Best Drama at the NTAs?!

Absolutely. I really thought EE would win this year. This was the hat trick for Emmerdale and I'm so proud of them.

Had EE won, I would've tweeted the NTAs and cursed them out. EE did nothing worthy of the award this year. Those crash episodes were some of the best soap in a LONG time. I hope they go on to win at the BSAs again too.

And the Ashley special episode. 

 

I had just assumed it, especially after the crash, so it's a nice surprise. I haven't seen it but someone said the Corrie cast didn't seem too thrilled. If so that makes it even better knowing how that cast operates...

From what I've read/watched on YouTube Debbie was attracted to women as well?

Once upon a time, yes. 

Thats the only thing that could make Debbie interesting to me at this point.  That and the reaction from the Barton men.

Wow. Really? What is going on tonight? Someone who runs the official HollyOaks Twitter account declared they were robbed. 

 

Why can't people be happy for ED? They are always a gracious cast when they've lost for decades. Just tacky. 

 

What did Corrie even submit? I hope it wasn't those episodes when Calum's body was found b/c they were horrible. Or was it the episodes where Anna got caught on fire? Those were not that impressive either.

She was boring during that period (to me) also. I've just never cared for Debbie. I hate that once she's come back, Ross gets sucked back in her orbit again.
