I remember when it used to be about farming!
As you say Basser, I think now they are throwing way too much political correctness and controversy into it, with next to nothing in the way of interesting storylines.

Re: Emmerdale
I'm not seeing any chemistry between Marlon and Jessie at all.I do applaud Emmerdale for highlighting problems faced by characters such as illness, bereavement and the struggles of folk to be accepted. Perhaps veiwers may rethink their attitudes to those who face such difficulties.

Re: Emmerdale
I agree TessA but the violence was unnessary at that time of day IMO Also when a show brings back a character from so long ago ramming home her child was from one of the current characters, could that have not been done more subtly ? I think the times up and they have run out of ideas.05-01-2019, 09:44 AM

Re: Emmerdale
Yes, Julie the violence against Cain was over the top, if it had been implied, just the threat and then the injuries shown would have been enough. The attack on Matty ( transgender in real life) was, I thought, typical of the bullying that goes on to victims that are "different", Ash the actor who plays Matty was originally asked to help with the storyline to keep it close to real life. We don't see this so it was important to show the struggle that goes on and what some people have to put up with.Mandy coming back, just another Dingle coming out of the woodwork.
I think it will be involving Paddy and another Dingle feud.
If they're short of storylines, I could give them some better ones!

Re: Emmerdale
It's more like a crime series, more murders than Midsomer!How many psychopaths can you have in one village?
Bob should claim benefits if he's that hard up, useless idiot!
Isn't it his cafe not Brenda's?
The show is just rubbish now, no proper storyline except another missing person to wonder about.

I agree with all that, Tess, especially about useless Bob.
Something else I find irritating, is Charity's son (name)? and that flaming back to front cap he never takes off!
In fact, he is on the TV awards on telly as I write, and they have just WON. And he has STILL got that flippin' cap on when everybody else is dressed to the nines!
