Members hsfolk Posted July 7, 2017 Members Share Posted July 7, 2017 I'm surprised Rob hasn't asked for a paternity test, watch that baby come out looking like Ross 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted July 8, 2017 Members Share Posted July 8, 2017 I sincerely hope not! This show needs more Sugdens, not more Bartons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adamski Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 Absolutely not! Although I can see it happening - I did wonder if Victoria would end up fighting for custody of her niece/nephew thanks to Adam's infertility, if Rebecca died. Lawrence could have funded the legal battle as a way to spite Robert, but that ship has now seemingly sailed. Charity and Declan's year-long reign of terror is one of my favourite soap story lines ever. It just kept going and going. And I've said it before, but I wanted Charity to emerge from prison humbled and affected from her time inside - not as 'punishment' but just to see her having to work hard to rebuild herself from the ground up and earn her family's trust again. And also to see her deal with the fact that Moira of all people looked after Noah for a year. But instead we see her arrive in a stolen red sports car, just because. And I love the idea of her being a mentor to a young woman and moulding her in her image. Would put Debbie's nose out of joint. BTW, I've been fast-forwarding most of Frank and Megan's scenes, but has Megan talked about Robbie and Declan in relation to her history with the Dingle viper? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adamski Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 And another thing - it's preposterous to suggest that Lawrence, who had a horrific time in prison, would then go on to frame an innocent man and get him sent down. (Although he was willing to do the same to Andy, so I guess he's got form). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 You're right. However I'm finding this whole story preposterous in itself, and lazy writing. If Nel was salvageable I would have been happy to see she become Charity's protege while scheming against the Sharmas. But like most of the stories since the conclusion of Ashley's story it's all been a waste. And Rebecca as a character works in scenes with Debbie (I wouldn't be against a romantic pairing between these two) and Victoria. I don't hold it against the character that she does not work with Aaron and Robert, who are the equivalent of a black hole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adamski Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 I stopped watching after Ashley died, and am only dipping back in now to see how Lawrence and Emma's stories play out. Why is Nel unsalvageable? And are Rebecca and Debbie friends now? I wouldn't be averse to Debbie being in another relationship with a woman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 Oh God no! We don't need a Charity knock-off running around. One Charity is quite enough (and really one too many!)

Members MichaelGL Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) Last I had seen on the show, they had Nel being a schemer one day taking Jai's credit card, then psychotically threatening to slit her wrists the next if Jai left her, then sleeping at the factory because she was homeless, taking the blame for something going wrong at the factory(making her sympathetic?), then some nonsense about her having a child that was given away. The actress couldn't handle the material IMO and I just didn't understand where the writers were going with her, was she genuinely troubled or was out to con Jai? I haven't really seen her since I've decided to check back in on the show a few weeks ago. I agree to a certain extent, but Charity needs direction at this moment, it's horrid.

Members I Am A Swede Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 I know exactly which direction Charity should take.... out of Emmerdale and far, far away. Preferably with her entire extended family going with her! Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 I wouldn't say Nell did anything beyond salvation.Not on this show in particular. I thought the actress did a decent job. The block taping and lengthy gaps offcamera hurt more than anything else. Lawrence has been shown as a selfish man over and over again. I don't find it that hard to believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mikelyons Posted July 13, 2017 Members Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) https://youtu.be/x45hm_pjhbc I don't know if this has been posted before, but here's a great behind the scenes documentary featuring the producers, writers, camera operators, and more from the Royal Television Society about EMMERDALE.

Members TimWil Posted July 13, 2017 Members Share Posted July 13, 2017 Good God, it's a chore getting through episodes these days. It's been awful for the past few months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 14, 2017 Members Share Posted July 14, 2017 It's been uneven to me for years, but I actually felt like it had picked up a bit again in the last week or two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimWil Posted July 14, 2017 Members Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) I guess it has...a bit. I'm glad Emma's gone for a while. I hated her constant to-ing and fro-ing with Arthur and Laurel. Edited July 14, 2017 by TimWil 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hsfolk Posted July 15, 2017 Members Share Posted July 15, 2017 I'm starting to get the feeling that Robert isn't really the father of Rebecca's baby 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
