George Sampson Joins Emmerdale

[Telly Watcher]

Today there has been an Internet article from the Daily Star which appears to say that George Sampson [Emmerdale's Ryan] has been talking about the outcome of Gordon Livesy's trial?

First off, the character of Ryan is known by every Emmerdale TV viewer to be an unconvincing and easily-bought liar.

Second off, it seems to me very unlikely that actor George Sampson (GS) would definitely end any future Emmerdale (or other acting role?) career for himself by pre-releasing ITV embargoed storyline info to somewhere so cheap (in a 20p per day newspaper) as the Daily Star. But then again, maybe GS (as one of Danny's "friends"!) really has "sold his future soul" for "thirty pieces of silver" (like Judas Iscariot for Jesus at Eastertime), so that means maybe GS got about £1.50 towards his bus fare home?

Third off, I am not able to find as of right now any evidence of the GS interview shown online in the paper version of the Daily Star today which I have in front of me right now...?

The Daily Star newspaper is that one that seems to promise just about every week/fortnight that the Earth will be ended by an asteroid tomorrow (from some distance greater than that of the Moon!) or by some "new planet" (currently beyond the orbit of Pluto!) or by World War 3 (by some country or another maybe one day, or never!).

Just don't believe everything that gets "published" on the Internet. It might not really be true...?

There has been so much rubbish published this week online about Emmerdale. Duncan Lindsay at Metro.co.uk has done it (ridiculous Zak storylines), this GS rubbish, and more too. It's not even 1 April yet. A joke is one thing but credibility once lost is very hard to regain. This is why I prefer here on soapboards to post stuff from trustable Daniel Kilkelly at Digital Spy.

Angry Emmerdale fans demand justice as actor claims Gordon Livesy ‘will get away with’ rape

By Duncan Lindsay for Metro.co.uk Wednesday 30 Mar 2016 4:00 pm

It’s been one of soap’s most emotive storylines ever, understandably causing huge reactions of anger and horror among fans.

From the moment that Aaron Livesy broke down and admitted he had been raped by his father as a child, viewers have been passionately demanding justice for the character, imploring Emmerdale to ensure that the story has the right outcome in the end.

So you can understand their worry at the predictions of actor George Sampson, who recently played the part of Ryan, the boy who Robert Sugden paid to make similar, and false, allegations against Gordon.

Tipping the villain for an acquittal at his upcoming trial, he told the Daily Star: ‘He won’t ever face justice. I think he’s going to get away with it. Because [Gary Mavers] is a good actor and they want to keep him in the show.’

The words, which initially seemed like a spoiler to fans, have caused an uproar but it is important to point out that Sampson was giving a prediction on the outcome and was not giving away any plot outcomes.

While we are completely sworn to secrecy over the outcome of the trial episodes, there is no reason to suggest that either outcome is more likely than the other at this stage so viewers should maintain an open mind on the various routes that the plot could still take.

Britain's Got Talent star George Sampson makes a return appearance on Emmerdale next week, which can only mean trouble for fan favourite Robert Sugden.

The 22-year-old star is reprising his role as troublesome Ryan, the young man who was bribed by Robert to make false abuse allegations against Gordon Livesy earlier this year.

Tense scenes next week will see Liv Flaherty (Isobel Steele) become paranoid over a vicious cyberbully who has started trolling her - so much so that she even accuses Robert of being the sinister culprit.

When Liv later runs into Ryan by chance, she discovers his involvement in Robert's bribing scandal and makes him a sneaky offer of her own. Show bosses are keeping quiet about exactly what it is, but it's sure to be bad news for Robert.

Ryan Hawley, who plays Robert, revealed: "Robert's relationship with Liv is still pretty rocky. She's trying to start a relationship with her older brother, who's been missing from her life for a long time, and Robert's been in the way of that.

"I think that's the root of the problem, as Robert sees this girl that's come along and she's getting in the way of his relationship with Aaron. Both of them have problems they need to sort out.

"It's baffling when Liv accuses Robert of trolling her. For a 30-year-old man to be going online and getting his kicks out of trolling a young girl - well it's pretty incredible. Robert doesn't particularly like being accused of that or people thinking that he's the perpetrator.

"Aaron later breaks it to Robert that Liv has found out about who Ryan is. They're together in the café and he says: 'Liv's found out about you and Ryan and it could be a problem'. Robert is a bit shocked about that and the possibilities of where it could go."

The dramatic time for Robert, Liv and Aaron coincides with the day of Gordon's funeral next week.

When Liv attends the service and struggles to cope, she ends up running out in despair. Much to her surprise, she then receives some surprising support from Robert when he follows her outside and offers some words of comfort.

The warring pair finally put their differences aside, so Liv secretly tries to get through to Ryan to tell him that their plan is off. But is she already too late?

Hawley continued: "It's about 7 years ago that Robert came back to Emmerdale for Jack Sugden's funeral and he was unable to bring himself to go. He was overwhelmed by what had happened and couldn't face everyone.

"Seeing Liv in this vulnerable state makes him share with her that he's had similar experiences in his life and they're not so different after all. They bond, which is quite nice for Robert. At this point, it's a relief to see that there's a thawing between them and that Liv is able to to warm to Robert like that as well.

"By this point, Liv has already made a deal with Ryan to get back at Robert, but after their conversation, she changes her mind and tries to get hold of Ryan. She wants to stop the ball rolling, but it's looks like she going to be too late. The repercussions this could have for Robert could be life changing.

"Robert is fuming when he finds out. Liv has put him in a terrible position and he's now facing a future that he won't be able to handle."

With Robert's anger and her cyberbully to worry about, things become so bad for Liv in the aftermath that she suddenly disappears. This leaves Robert to play the hero by desperately looking for her, hoping that he can get her back before Aaron discovers anything is amiss.

Hawley added: "Robert goes to look for Liv and hopes that Aaron won't realise she's missing. He looks around the village and gets information from Noah that she's left the house and packed her bags. He realises she's run away and goes out looking for her. He wants to find her before Aaron realises..."
