Emmerdale - Current Episode Discussion - III

[Son of Cain]

Yes. The Precious Jacob is far from innocent.

Not only is he not innocent, he is pretty stupid, if you pull a knife on someone you must be prepared to use it, you cannot rely on it scaring them. Not only that, you do not hold it out in front of you body, making it easier to be grabbed. You hold it back closer to you so that you can extent your arm into the other person. Jacob may have meant well but he went out in anger, not really knowing what he was getting into, Callum might well have had a gun. You do not bring a knife to a gun fight. He should have called the police so they could have caught Callum red handed.

Jacob went to the meet armed with a knife, which was from Leyla's kitchen.
He would be in trouble despite the fact he was stabbed with his own knife.
The drug dealer would say it was self defence.

jacob might have done wrong but he was stabbed and the police knowing might wake leyla up

That's was my initial thought. I clearly over estimated his intelligence

[lizann]

rhona blaming naomi for everything april does, stop listening to nico

So thanks to Jacob and Layla's stupidity :-

Eric is selling the B@B putting Bernice out of work.

Eric is buying the shop so that David can manage it and lose even more money.

I think the detective had been looking at the script as he knew straight away that Jacob was lying.

He was an inspector apparently. Mike Swirling would have done a better job

No need to look at any script, clearly Dave and Jacob have not rehearsed their statements enough for either to remember what they had agreed on...

[Dennis tanner]

Jacob should not blamed his mother for being in hospital. Nobody asked him to be totally stupid.

Apart from a bit of physical pain he will get away with it yet again.
