Robert and Aaron

[Perdita]

There's so much that is wrong with the Jacob and Maya story that I don't know where to begin. It's not to my liking, not in what is meant to a light entertainment, tea-time, soapy drama. It's just unpleasant.

Seems soaps are meant to reflect real life with of course lots of unrealistic bits in it .. like with most unpleasant storylines, I guess they are highlighting inappropriate behaviour from a teacher and potential step-parent towards a child .. as distasteful as it is, if it opens the eyes of viewers where this might happen in real life, then it will have served a purpose. All soaps these days are portraying storylines that would have been out of the question years ago .. but I cannot help feeling that they are necessary these days .. life has changed so much from when these programmes were first introduced ..

Emmerdale have claimed that they did a lot of research into the acid attack story line and that went seriously pear-shaped. It did so in a way that was very insensitive and offensive to victims. They made similar claims for Aaron's spice addition and that went a similar way.

Emmerdale have more 'fails' than 'successes' when it comes to tackling these serious issues. Unlike in the past, I will not give them the benefit of the doubt. They are not competent to tackle an issue like this and should stick to OTT murders, an occasional ONS and throwing a character into the boot of a car every other week.

Sorry but I thought that was a rubbish episode.

Leanna & Maya are equally obnoxious as characters. I thought we’d got rid of the annoying blonde one but we’ve been left with two that are just as self centred and think they are the most important thing in life.

Sorry, I know this is missing the point of the story but I can’t actually bear to watch scenes with that Maya in, so any relevant issue they are trying to raise I’m sad to say will be lost on me.


Really missed the boys tonight, hate it when they are just involved to move on someone else’s story and then just cast aside till the next time they are needed.

I'm very much on the same page as you, especially on the David/Jacob/Maya business.

The only thing that could have made tonight's episode any the worse would have been even more tedious scenes of that drunken bore, Graham.

Thanks for the comments Eddy. 👋I’m always worried incase I just don’t appreciate what is being told in an episode and I’ve picked faults for no reason.
