Robert and Aaron

[Paul_Robs]

I'm not sure I'm going to be watching the Aaron in prison storyline. I don't like it. I don't mind some darkness in Emmerdale, but only for a few episodes. The prospect of this storyline going on for weeks is really putting me off.

I'll still be going to be posting here and following the story from here and other forums and the press stuff, just not watching.

In addition, I'm fed up with Emmerdale and all its crime and all it's prison stories. I'm bored with the prospect of Aaron being in prison AGAIN. He was there not so long ago when he was suicidal. Also, Bob was in prison and we had a bullying storyline with him. We've had Charity in prison and Lachlan in the Y.O.I. As for the drug stuff it's been done with Holly and Jai. As has sexual abuse, with Aaron but now with Rhona again.

I really wish that Emmerdale had thought of some other means of providing Danny Miller the opportnity to act in the angsty, emotionally dark way that he is good at.

I think we are on the same page EddyBee I love some angst but its unbelievable how many prison stories Aaron can have really, surely new home, new husband (proper wedding please), Liv, business issues etc etc ..... would keep them busy BUT Oh No we get multiple rinse and repeats.

Anyway I love Robron and will watch on YouTube instead until he gets out

they have well publicised that he gets 12 months and not left it as a shock so it might be that the twist is that he gets out fairly soon on appeal I really hope they don't have him escaping or doing anything that causes more probs for him later

I agree the fact that they told everyone its 12 months would in normal life be a massive spoiler which makes me think he will be out within 2-3 months on appeal and will be the on not get this sorted which will repair the Paddy issue fully.

I'm just not interested in coming home in the evening to watch one of my favourite characters in one of my favourite TV shows, suffering for weeks on end. I would accept that for a few episodes (no more than about half a dozen) but more than that and it's 'no thanks' from me, especially when it has been done before and quite recently (for Aaron and other characters like Bob, Charity and Lachlan).

Boring 'rinse and repeat' stuff, as well as dark and unpleasant. Enough already.

I wonder why we don't have a 90 min ep straight through

I am an absolute wreck with all of that - those scenes with Paddy & Liv were just ....

[*RG83*]

The acting as always was very strong (and this is I fear the problem. In order to exploit that ability, they have to do stories that tear them apart, split them up, cause them angst etc) but the entire thing felt like an injustice to me in a village rife with not only crime but violent crimes like Aaron did on a weekly basis.

How can people say that Ryan is not good at showing emotion in scenes? He really nailed that first episode.
I am so pleased it was centred mainly around feelings on the outside and showed how really had to make the biggest decision inside wether to deny his relationship or not.

I really don't know if I'm going to be able to watch this prison storyline - it is just going to be so heartbreaking.

I'm probably the only one thinking it weird seeing Aaron in Blue Jeans (as part of his prison wear)! I don't think I've ever seen him in Blue jeans on ED before!!

Anyway, Danny was really good in the prison scenes as I knew he'd be & bless Robert for already thinking about an appeal. So Aaron actually got 18 months reduced to 12 months. Loved that Paddy acknowledged that Aaron has Robert this time & even (shock) tried to build a few bridges. I also really liked the Robert/Liv scene & them hugging at the end. Hopefully they will actually become closer through all this!!
