Poor Gemma. Is she bright enough to realise what has happened and will she give them up ?

Its a vexing one, but if that was my Nan I would want Gemma gone, she did nothing to help Rita when the louts where going for her in her own home, oh they are my mates wasnt an excuse and Gemma isnt the person now she was when she came into the soap. Gemma storming off to her room was funny, it wont be your room for long Im guessing.
I really was hoping they would give the dementia altzimer role to Rosie not Rita.. the early onset story would of been more interesting on a disposable character like Rosie.
Sallys sister must be bored by now playing the loonie, she was the loonie Kathy in the Bill, but interestingly she work with Sea Bean in a Sharpe so I wonder if she already knew the Ex Mrs Bean who now work in Devs kababs
Rosie?! Rosie Webster?! She's far too young to have even early onset of alzheimers! And neither is she hardly a disposable character.
Rita's on the other hand is just normal alzheimers, she's not young anymore. They can never do this one better than emmerdale did with Ashley. So why to do it?
I have no sympathy for Rita at all. I think she's turned into a miserable old woman and I found it shocking that straight away she went accusing Gemma and calling police without thinking that maybe those two girls robbed the shop without her. The first thing she should have done anyway after them two were in the apartment, was to change the code, just in case. And how wasn't there signs of a forced entry? They used a crowbar to get in before turning off the alarm? Again, copying emmerdale with Eric and the shop. Rita could be robbed in every episode and I couldn't care less. She's an awful woman.
Hey mariba.
Sadly younger early onset alzheimers is a thing... Im not sure how old Rosie is but she must be in her late 20s by now, certainly this awful issue has been documented in those of that age. Yes it is extremely rare and associated with a gene in the family's make up but then so is Huntington disease and Ive lost count how many characters in soap have got that.
Its too easy to give Rita the issue, most older folk suffer memory issues especially when under stress that dosent mean anything more than old age.
No signs of forced entry because the door was unlocked. But then I got confused because I thought they were breaking into the flat not the shop
I feel in a soap you need stabilising characters, ones you can always recognise while the cast moves in and out around them, Ritta in corrie is one, she glues together story lines while not ending as the end story.. to give her alzheimers is an end game and certain end to her.. give it to Rosie,, lets face it after the Jungle a not too liked actress ATM might up her acting and give her the chance to do other great things once the story line ends..
