Emmerdale: Discussion Thread

[NothinButAttitude]

 

Well I kind of want Cain to be the father of the baby too. 

 

But I am upset they killed Finn. They never gave him much of a shot with the exception of his well-developed friendships with Carly, Tracy, Eric, and Val. 

 

It was touching to see Tracy and Eric be destroyed by the loss of Finn.

Judas!

I can see Tracy going a bit bonkers and ending up in the sack with Pete-I noticed chemistry between them in a brief scene last week.

 

Sad about Finn. I really would like Kasim to show up at his memorial service and confess that he was actually falling for Finn but had to cut things off with him because he had finally remembered seeing Emma push James off that bridge and she scared the crap out of him.

But I've told you before that I like Cain, Sam, Lisa, and at times Chas Dingle. The rest are the ones that unnerve me. I can deal with Marlon too when he's comical.

To be completely fair there have been times when I have tolerated some of the Dingles. I even liked Chas once upon a time and she's still the only Dingle I would let stay. I could stand Marlon when he was a friend to Kathy and when he was involved with Tricia, and I could tolerate Lisa early on, before she became too Dingle-fied. Butch and Tina I mostly disliked, even loathed on occasion, but they had tolerable moments.

Zak, Nellie, Sam, Cain, Charity, Debbie, Belle, Del, Shadrach, Aaron, Faith and the rest however could drop dead this instant and all I would feel is jubilation.

Speaking of, more and more the potential of doing a Loving murders type storyline with the Dingles becomes ever so much more delicious to me. Tina would have to return for it. And I'd keep Aaron alive because I am not killing off another gay character. He'd exit eventually, just not dead. Marlon could remain alive because of April being a Windsor, but he'd be scared out of town. And Charity has always been above the family so she'd escape the serial killer's wrath somehow. I'm thinking Lisa would be the killer, but that might be too samey from it's inspiration. Faith would abandon them again. But absolute victims would be Zak, Sam, Cain, Belle, Debbie, & Chas with Paddy one of the obligatory person(s) who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. And more could be added if it suits me.

Shadrach died 7 years ago.

 

I think I would be more down for this a year or two ago when the Dingles were going around acting like thugs, but they mostly seem very disparate and are scattered into their own random storylines these days. 

 

I can see why you can't stand them though, as it's how I tended to feel about the Mitchells on EE before they were broken up.

 

I'd never want them to kill off Sam though.

Speaking of this, has a UK soap had a serial killer story? I know Corrie did with Richard Hillman, but has any other soap done one? My mind is drawing blank at the moment...

[Bright Eyes]

 

How can you forget Cameron? It was a fantastic story. In the long run, killing Carl was as stupid as it gets, but still.

[NothinButAttitude]

 

Oh yeah. So forgot about him. Guess b/c Debbie was at the center of that story and I try to forget anything consisting of her.

Also, Hollyoaks has had about a million.

The most well-known is probably Silas on Hollyoaks.

[TimWil]

I wouldn’t consider Richard Hillman or Cameron to be serial killers, though. Not like Silas. Now THAT was a serial killer.

[NothinButAttitude]

 

Oh I forgot about Silas too. 

 

Has EE ever had a serial killer? They could use one right about now too. I wouldn't be opposed to @Bright Eyes idea about serial killer picking off some folks on ED too.

[DRW50]

Serial killer stories never kill off characters people want to see dead.
