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.

[lizann]

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

[Perdita]

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

Doubt it...the storyline would be over too soon..

[Dennis tanner]

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 brimg a knife to a gun fight. He should have called the police so they could have caught Callum red handed. That's was my initial thought. I clearly over estimated his intelligence

[lizann]

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

[Dennis tanner]

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.

[Snagglepus]

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

[Dennis tanner]

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

[Perdita]

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

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.

[lizann]

leyla seemed more worried about the knife and story than jacob himself

[Perdita]

leyla seemed more worried about the knife and story than jacob himself

To be fair, she is one messed up lady right now. She never got the support from the community she needed when she came out of rehab and Liam pushing for a divorce is extremely insensitive and cruel for a doctor... not surprised she was tempted to use again. I do think she would have if Jacob had not turned up at that moment though...

[Dennis tanner]

Basically, she is just weak.

jacob was supporting her, liam was wrong to want a divorce but they weren't talking, she should have returned to rehab if struggling

[Son of Cain]

leyla seemed more worried about the knife and story than jacob himself
Maybe because it was her fault, that Jacob took it upon himself to go running off into the night with a knife to meet a drug dealer. Maybe because Jacob is too stupid to realize what a mess he has got himself into.

[Dennis tanner]

Young Kyle has not admitted to murder or manslaughter. He has admitted to an accident.

When Sam was talking to Cain in prison, why was Bob there ?

[katie hunter]

Surely they could have allowed Kyle to stay at home for the moment, I know he shot Al but it does seem a bit harsh to do that before the trial.

I thought Cain was just being his usual stubborn self but I'm starting to think that there is more to his feud with Caleb than just taking the rap for him stealing the car.

[Dennis tanner]

Could well be, even though Caleb didn't exist 6 months ago.

[Dennis tanner]

It's now time for Cain to give the Police a statement explaining how Al's death was accidental. He needs to stop messing about.

Chloe needs to say to Mackenzie, " Leave me alone or I WILL spill the beans "

[Son of Cain]

Surely they could have allowed Kyle to stay at home for the moment, I know he shot Al but it does seem a bit harsh to do that before the trial.

I thought Cain was just being his usual stubborn self but I'm starting to think that there is more to his feud with Caleb than just taking the rap for him stealing the car.

Amy already tried to run off with Kyle. if he is left at home she could do so again. I am surprized they did not take him into custody immediately

i hope cain gets to see Kyle, chas has not one ounce of guilt

[Son of Cain]

i hope cain gets to see Kyle, chas has not one ounce of guilt

I may have said this before, but I think Chas still sees herself as a victim in this affair. She acts like this was something that happened TO HER, not something that she was in any way responsible for.

[johntrevor]

Very true

[katie hunter]

i hope cain gets to see Kyle, chas has not one ounce of guilt

She is acting quite hauty about it all 😡

[Dennis tanner]

She is acting quite hauty about it all 😡

It annoys me that Charity is supporting her.

[lizann]

surely chloe wouldn't be allowed live with noah

[tammyy2j]

I am puzzled about Caleb, his he bad or good, a copper, he took Cain to the countryside and they walked to a pub for a nice lunch

I think Charity knows and is playing Mack and Chloe

Eric already making money for David's shop

[Dennis tanner]

Eric already making money for David's shop

If the powers that be say it will suddenly make money, it will.

[flappinfanny]

Has Cain finally met his match in Caleb?

[hward]

Mack really couldn't act any shiftier, if he carries on like that Charity is going to figure it out sooner rather than later

On other hand, I can't figure Caleb out at all

[Son of Cain]

Amy might well have been right, that Kyle might have eventually forgotten about killing Al, after all she has forgotten her part in killing Frank.

[johntrevor]

Amy might well have been right, that Kyle might have eventually forgotten about killing Al, after all she has forgotten her part in killing Frank.

Either she has or the script writers have

[Dennis tanner]

Amy might well have been right, that Kyle might have eventually forgotten about killing Al, after all she has forgotten her part in killing Frank.

But would Kyle have forgotten that Cain was in the Chokey

[Perdita]

But would Kyle have forgotten that Cain was in the Chokey
Kyle would never ever forget about him firing a gun, a guy losing his life because of that and his Dad ending up in prison for months on end...

[Dennis tanner]

Kyle would never ever forget about him firing a gun, a guy losing his life because of that and his Dad ending up in prison for months on end...

Exactly.

[Son of Cain]

Either she has or the script writers have

Looks like both.

Kerry and Amy were not really the best characters to be at the centre of this story. Neither of them have shown any recognition of how if things go wrong, you can end up being responsible for the death of another. It would not be so jarring if Amy was less vociferous in her condemnation of Cain. I feel there should have been a moment of reflection for Kerry and Amy on Frank's death. If anything their crime was worse as they qlaid the blame for the fire and missing money on Frank.

Yes that hits the nail squarely on the head

[lizann]

tracy and vanessa letting amy and kerry off was stupid also

[Son of Cain]

tracy and vanessa letting amy and kerry off was stupid also

Did Charity know about Kerry and Amy? - Did Vanessa tell her?

[Dennis tanner]

Did charity know about Kerry and Amy? - Did Vanessa tell her?

Telling Charity would be a bit pointless. Brenda is always the best choice.

[lizann]

Did charity know about Kerry and Amy? - Did Vanessa tell her?

nate knows but not sure charity does

[Snagglepus]

What was it that Ryan knows about Mack and Chloe, was it that they just slept together or that she is pregnant.
Didn't he say he would tell Charity if Mack didn't.
Well he is taking his time over it.

[lizann]

afaik ryan only knows mack cheated not who with

[Dennis tanner]

Chloe needs to say the father of her unborn child, " Shut up or I am telling Charity myself"

At 9.30am, after cleaning himself up, Nate claimed to have done half a days work already. What did he find to do in at least 3 hours of darkness ?

[lizann]

I am puzzled about Caleb, his he bad or good, a copper, he took Cain to the countryside and they walked to a pub for a nice lunch

I think Charity knows and is playing Mack and Chloe

Eric already making money for David's shop

yes think charity knows

[Son of Cain]

yes think charity knows

If Charity does know, I wish she would hurry up and tell Mack and Chloe, if she does not, I wish she would hurry up and find out. I am getting bored with this story and the way it is dragging on, the way Mack is carrying on I am amazed that everyone does not know.

[Dennis tanner]

While teaching the two children the meaning of some words, Dawn could have included 'Piranha women?

[Son of Cain]

Now that Chloe is getting on better with Amy, why does she not ask if she can move back in with her?

[johntrevor]

Now that Chloe is getting on better with Amy, why does she not ask if she can move back in with her?

I think I read somewhere that she does

[lizann]

Now that Chloe is getting on better with Amy, why does she not ask if she can move back in with her?

is vic back there with her son or with wendy?

[lizann]

cain made the villain and chas forgiven

[hward]

is vic back there with her son or with wendy?

Sure someone said the other day that Victoria had moved back in so there was no room for Chloe anyway

[Dennis tanner]

The pub manager moans that there are crates of beer out of date. Why did they buy out of date stuff when they re-opened a few months ago? Does Charity know about the party? Were the spirits alspo out of date.

Kirk needs to get in a hot bath and open his veins.

Well you cannot fault Chastity's business acumen, instead of selling (not out of date) beer to customers, she gives them free out of date beer, so that they will not be tempted to spend their money in the pub.

[Son of Cain]

Did anyone think that Caleb avoided answering Kim's question about blood tests? Is he really Cain's brother?

[johntrevor]

Did anyone think that Caleb avoided answering Kim's question about blood tests? Is he really Cain's brother?

I've been thinking, since he arrived, that he is a fraudster or conman of nsome sort. He seems to have easily fooled Kim, and yes the blood test thing was a bit strange.

[Snagglepus]

If Caleb is a fraud, what is his interest in paying the legal costs for Kyle.

[johntrevor]

If Caleb is a fraud, what is his interest in paying the legal costs for Kyle.

Good question. But I think he has an ulterior motive of some sort.

[Snagglepus]

Caleb seems to be considerate towards Amy...
Does Amy know who her father is?
No Kerry around to say anything, Caleb turned up after she left.

[lizann]

afair kerry said chloe and amy had the same junkie dad

[Dennis tanner]

afair kerry said chloe and amy had the same junkie dad

Junkie dad or not, it appears that he is a wealthy criminal. If Amy is his daughter, that makes Kyle his grandson. Perhaps that's why he has stumped up the money

[flappinfanny]

So Chas is forgiven. Why? Is Paddy going to take his own life?

[flappinfanny]

Nicola can be a spiteful nasty bitch at times. Love her, long may she reign.

[Dennis tanner]

So Chas is forgiven. Why? Is Paddy going to take his own life?

Probably not but it would be a good idea. He goes on a nice country walk while pets wait in the surgery waiting room in agony.

[lizann]

So Chas is forgiven. Why? Is Paddy going to take his own life?

he is having a breakdown so could harm himself, he is distancing himself from eve who needs him

[lizann]

how can amy get full sole custody, she abandoned him, also took off away with him after al died

[Perdita]

how can amy get full sole custody, she abandoned him, also took off away with him after al died
She is his Mam ...

[johntrevor]

Probably not but it would be a good idea. He goes on a nice country walk while pets wait in the surgery waiting room in agony.

Suicide is NEVER a good idea. He has had his world torn apart by his wife, who has now been forgiven and embraced by her family, while he has been left on his own and virtually shunned. He is in a bad place and needs help not criticism.

[lizann]

paddy is an honorary dingle marlon can see he is struggling i do think chas should give him space so she should have left for a while at least, how is no one blaming chas for liv as she was out to go mind eve over chas and al when the caravan hit her

[Son of Cain]

paddy is an honorary dingle marlon can see he is struggling i do think chas should give him space so she should have left for a while at least, how is no one blaming chas for liv as she was out to go mind eve over chas and al when the caravan hit her

The price of forgiveness, some free out of date beer. I think that tells us all we need to know about "The Dingle Code. I did not think Belle would be swayed so easily. Not only is Chas acting as if none of this is her fault, but she seems to be acting as if it is Paddy's fault at times.

[Dennis tanner]

Suicide is NEVER a good idea. He has had his world torn apart by his wife, who has now been forgiven and embraced by her family, while he has been left on his own and virtually shunned. He is in a bad place and needs help not criticism.

The problem is that I don't like him. I never have done.

[lizann]

chas didn't want any of her dingle family when running off with al

[lizann]

She is his Mam ...

she gave him up, had him adopted, joanie died zak got him then he was legally i believe signed to cain and moira

cain getting mad and angry is playing right into caleb's hands whatever his plans even if he did get kyle out

[Dennis tanner]

she gave him up, had him adopted, joanie died zak got him then he was legally i believe signed to cain and moira

Cain has never been the sharpest knife in the drawer

[johntrevor]

The problem is that I don't like him. I never have done.

So he should kill himself?? Unbelievable.

[Dennis tanner]

So he should kill himself?? Unbelievable.

I just want him gone. I would be happy for someone else to do the job if that suits you better.

[katie hunter]

she gave him up, had him adopted, joanie died zak got him then he was legally i believe signed to cain and moira

cain getting mad and angry is playing right into caleb's hands whatever his plans even if he did get kyle out

I wonder if Caleb will pay Amy's legal bill if she does try to get custody of Kyle?

[Son of Cain]

I just want him gone. I would be happy for someone else to do the job if that suits you better.

Paddy has always been one of my favourite characters, so I would be sorry to see him go. Admittedly they seem to have made him more bumbling and a touch more stupid recently, but on the whole he is still one of the nicer, less nasty characters in the village.

[johntrevor]

Well said. I totally agree. Why someone would want him to commit suicide, is completely beyond me.

He has been a bumbling idiot since he turned up year ago.

[Dennis tanner]

Well said. I totally agree. Why someone would want him to commit suicide, is completely beyond me.
Fair enough. I am not that bothered how he goes. Just get him off my screen. By the way, if he was a half decent vet he wouldn't have so much time on his hands.

[lizann]

has vinny forgot chas part in livs death, he was right that his loss and pain is different to paddy but paddy is hurting

[Dennis tanner]

has vinny forgot chas part in livs death, he was right that his loss and pain is different to paddy but paddy is hurting

Kirk may be hurting but he has the possibility of it all back. Vinny will not get Olivia back. Has he actually worked it out that Chas was a bit responsible. Remind me what Kirk was doing when Olivia died. I have forgotten.

[Son of Cain]

Is Eric going to fare much better than David running the shop. Placing the fruit and veg rack in front of the door would suggest not. How are customers suppose to get into the shop. Or is that a new shop front with another door on the side wall?

[lizann]

Kirk may be hurting but he has the possibility of it all back. Vinny will not get Olivia back. Has he actually worked it out that Chas was a bit responsible. Remind me what Kirk was doing when Olivia died. I have forgotten.

paddy was getting liv to babysit eve as chas was in hospital as injured out with al who left kerry, paddy going to chas, no one is blaming chas for liv or kyle

[Dennis tanner]

paddy was getting liv to babysit eve as chas was in hospital as injured out with al who left kerry, paddy going to chas, no one is blaming chas for liv or kyle

Why did Kirk need to go anywhere? He's a Vet not a doctor.

[Dennis tanner]

Cathy is proving to be a headache for poor Bob. I think that Heath hit the nail on the head. She doesn't like being unpopular.

Jacob was very rude to his mother and needs to accept that it was his fault that he finished up in hospital.

[Perdita]

Why did Kirk need to go anywhere? He's a Vet not a doctor.

To be with his wife in hospital

[johntrevor]

To be with his wife in hospital

Exactly...Paddy still loved his wife at that stage, and he thought she loved him.

[lizann]

i quite enjoyed cathy going on one

[flappinfanny]

i quite enjoyed cathy going on oneYes so did i :)

[flappinfanny]

Jacob deserves to be stuck with dopey David. Leyla you are well rid.

[Snagglepus]

Paddy Izzard looked a mess tonight.

[lizann]

Paddy Izzard looked a mess tonight.

chas cutting him down for having fun with eve, the jealous witch

[hward]

Chas is vile

[Dennis tanner]

chas cutting him down for having fun with eve, the jealous witch

The expressions on Kirk's face indicated that he was NOT having fun.

[Son of Cain]

i quite enjoyed cathy going on one

Bet Brenda regrets she is not going travelling now.

[johntrevor]

The expressions on Kirk's face indicated that he was NOT having fun.

But the whole point is Eve was. and STILL Chas had to criricise.

[Perdita]

But the whole point is Eve was. and STILL Chas had to criricise.

Absolutely, Paddy did his best to give Eve some fun time despite struggling with his mental health. Chas is a very very selfish madam!!!

[Son of Cain]

Absolutely, Paddy did his best to give Eve some fun time despite struggling with his mental health. Chas is a very very selfish madam!!!

I think Chas is trying to drive Paddy out of the pub, or even the village. I do not detect any feeling that she regrets anything she has done to create this situation. Her attitude seems to be that Paddy should forgive her and if he does not, then tough. Now that the Dingles have accepted her back into the fold, this has given her renewed confidence to treat him lik sh*t. - She must be able to see he is struggling. She really is a piece of work.

how had broke david money to rent a cottage

[Dennis tanner]

how had broke david money to rent a cottage

It was a loan from ITV

[Dennis tanner]

Banks will be rushing to give Bob and Bernice a mortgage.

There is enough Dingle money floating about to buy a new boiler.

Priya should not have been thankng Leyla. She should have been asking why she didn't tell her where David was.

tbf leyla came straight back to the village and told priya then was calling the police

what dingle money, unless caleb helps but not a dingle

[Son of Cain]

You just know Bob or Brenda are going to find Kathy's pill and think she is having sex.

[johntrevor]

You just know Bob or Brenda are going to find Kathy's pill and think she is having sex.

Of course....sooooooooo obvious

[Son of Cain]

Banks will be rushing to give Bob and Bernice a mortgage.

There is enough Dingle money floating about to buy a new boiler.

Priya should not have been thankng Leyla. She should have been asking why she didn't tell her where David was.

Should the Dingles not call a gas engineer first before deciding they need a new boiler, it might be possible to repair their's.

If anything I think Priya should not only be thanking Leyla, she should be apologizing to her. There was no need to tell her to shut up when she was asking if she had seen David. It was not Leyla's fault David ran off with Amba. Priya should have told David she was moving to London, as soon as she got the job, before Leyla had a chance to let it slip.

[Son of Cain]

I thought it would take longer than one episode before Brenda found the pills.

[lizann]

bye bye priya, could rishi take in the dingles

will big home farm manor lord

[Dennis tanner]

You just know Bob or Brenda are going to find Kathy's pill and think she is having sex.

Agreed. It was so obvious

[Dennis tanner]

tbf leyla came straight back to the village and told priya then was calling the police

Leyla should have told Priya what she knew and left it to her.

So who has got Will's watch ? Is it Will himself ?

[lizann]

Leyla should have told Priya what she knew and left it to her.

So who has got Will's watch ? Is it Will himself ?

one of the kids in the home farm manor

Thanks - seems a bit better now. I use a Samsung tablet here, I clean memory and storage, but still having to log in when I visit the site. But do not have to keep logging in when I try to post or change page. Thanks also to others who replied to my post.

[Dennis tanner]

Thomas Thomas took the watch ? I didn't know that he could even walk ?

[Snagglepus]

It was a nice episode tonight, folk being nice with each other is nice.
Jai being nice with Leyla, Brenda being nice with Cathy and Marshall being nice with Arthur.
It gives you a nice cozy feeling when everyone is nice.
Naughty Will was the only bigot in tonight's show.
The writers are being very p.c.
Wouldn't it make a better story if Chas found out she was pregnant with Al's baby.

[lizann]

Thomas Thomas took the watch ? I didn't know that he could even walk ?

id say nanny nicky took it but felt bad for lydia and sam so returned it

[Dennis tanner]

id say nanny nicky took it but felt bad for lydia and sam so returned it

Or he lifted Thomas up so he could reach it.

[johntrevor]

id say nanny nicky took it but felt bad for lydia and sam so returned it

My thoughts as well

[Perdita]

id say nanny nicky took it but felt bad for lydia and sam so returned it

I am sure of that too... I also got the impression that Caleb and Nicky know each other .. maybe from prison??

[johntrevor]

I am sure of that too... I also got the impression that Caleb and Nicky know each other .. maybe from prison??

I think there is more to both these characters than meets the eye

[lizann]

I am sure of that too... I also got the impression that Caleb and Nicky know each other .. maybe from prison??

who was nicky having a drink with, was it caleb and sam

[lizann]

will got his watch but still a pillock to sam and lydia, why, he is not better than them and what would dawn think

[Dennis tanner]

will got his watch but still a pillock to sam and lydia, why, he is not better than them and what would dawn think

Yes.Will is a pillock but Kim is going soft. If Lydia is only offering her services as a cleaner, Kim should not have given her or Sam more money.

Unless, of course, she regards it as compo.

[lizann]

who rang charity and what about?

[Snagglepus]

Laurel is also being bigoted towards those whose views she doesn't share.

[Dennis tanner]

Laurel is also being bigoted towards those whose views she doesn't share.

She should be ashamed that her husband was a fraud. He was an atheist vicar.

[Son of Cain]

She should be ashamed that her husband was a fraud. He was an atheist vicar.

I am sure he was not the only one.

[Dennis tanner]

I am sure he was not the only one.

That is true but he was too lazy to go through the motions.

[katie hunter]

I think Cain is playing Caleb, there is no way he would do a 360 so quickly.

[Dennis tanner]

I think Cain is playing Caleb, there is no way he would do a 360 so quickly.

But who is Caleb working for. The only one with a motive would be Joe Tate ????

[Dennis tanner]

Forgot to say that I love the scenes between Charity and Noah.

I feel very sad knowing that the Chloe pregnancy is going to blow up for Charity and McKenzie.

[katie hunter]

But who is Caleb working for. The only one with a motive would be Joe Tate ????


Lots of speculation on twitter that he is connected to the new Nanny?

Surely the ultimate revenge would be seeing Cain remain in jail?

I think its strange that not one of the Dingles have asked him where he has come from, where he gets his from money etc. No DNA test - just blind acceptance that he is who he says he is.

They started to ask when he went into the pub for the first time but managed to avoid answering by asking them to talk about them...but yes, they should have asked him again

[lizann]

why though, debbie is gone, kim forced joe away, graham dead

[lizann]

the dingles accepted caleb as he was the hero saving cain and kyle plus cain knew faith had another son due to previously meeting even though faith never talked about him even when dying

why though, debbie is gone, kim forced joe away, graham dead

Did Cain not leave Joe lying on the ground thinking he had killed him. I cannot remember if he found out later if Joe was still alive.

[Son of Cain]

That is true but he was too lazy to go through the motions.

Still preferred Ashley as a Vicar rather than pushy over enthusiastic Charles.

They do like a food fight on Emmerdale, even though it was rotten food this time. Last one I remember was with Nicola and Mandy.

So April date for Charity and Mack's wedding mentioned twice in one episode. I wonder if that's going to be when Charity finds out about Mack being the father of Chloe's baby?

Spoilers say that Chas starts flirting with a delivery man to "get back" at Paddy for chatting to Mandy. OMG there is something seriously wrong with that woman's head.

Al destroying the pub is only occasionally refered to but Chastity forgave him.

It's not approipriate for her to be known as Chastity Belt in the village

chas kicked charity out of the pub business partnership for what kissing or sleeping with al and then went into business and bed with him herself , charity is too forgiving of her

Meena and Manpreet were hurt by the explosion when they walked past

That started the storyline with Meena keeping Manpreet hostage after taking her home from hospital.

[Son of Cain]

Meena and Manpreet were hurt by the explosion when they walked past

So obviously it did not bother Chas that Manpreet was hurt because of Al.
It is as if certain data was wiped from Chas's memory. I know we need drama in Soaps but I struggle to accept that Chas would every have forgiven Al, never mind fall in love with him.

charles "vicaring" on charity's wedding, she has been married before a few times

chas is insufferable making paddy miserable, acting the victim, he should move out with eve

[katie hunter]

Bob and Bernice struggled to scrape together the deposit but now they can afford to decorate? 🤔

[Dennis tanner]

Kirk declined a date with the daughter of his father's girlfriend. I guess he thought he would be punching above his weight and he would be right.
I am really sad for Charity and McKenzie. Marcus and Ethan....BORING !!!!

I would have thought Charity and Mack would have got married at a registry office, they are not exactly regular church goers.

It gives Charles something to do.

When Charity and Mack turn up for the regular service they might not be able to find a seat. It will be so crowded.

[Dennis tanner]

Ethan and Marcus still boring and Marcus should have not accepted Ethan's threats.

Mandy Dingle and Yorkshire's laziest Vet.....Give me strength.

[lizann]

chas and caleb buzz off, stop at paddy

[tammyy2j]

That was a terrible birthday party for Cathy but Heath taking his guitar to hide was funny

Amanda Rose aka Mandy should have punched Chas

[hward]

I know I probably sound like a broken record by now, but Chas is absolutely vile. God knows Im not a huge fan of Mandy, but I wish she had just slapped some sense into Chas while she was being all judgemental and waving her fingers around.

And I wonder how long Sarah and Chloe are going to stay away for - come back for the wedding when ready to drop and surprise, Mack squirms some more and let's the cat out of the bag?

[lizann]

go bear speaking harsh truths to chas

[flappinfanny]

The thought of Paddy and Mandy together makes my skin crawl.

[Dennis tanner]

go bear speaking harsh truths to chas

Chas should have taken the opportunity to kick him out. Does he ever pay for any of the booze he gets down his neck?

Full credit to Caleb for inspiring Yorkshire's laziest Vet to do a walking tour of Yorkshire.

mandy seems genuinely worried about paddy and why should chas kick bear out, its ryan and charitys bar

So, Mandy had a jump, did she then think that was a proposal of marriage?

At last someone with the guts to tell Chas some home truths. No matter how Chas tries to spin it, she is totally to blame for EVERYTHING that Paddy is going through. Well done Bear, spoken like a loving dad.

It seems now Chas has finally accepted that she was in the wrong after Bear's tongue lashing, and that it was Paddy she "loved" after all. Is this the start of them getting back together?

Not sure about that. I read somewhere that Chas tells Paddy she loved Al more than she ever loved him. So doesn't seem very likely they will get back together.

[Perdita]

She did say that to Paddy... what an awfully cruel thing to say to a spouse/partner ... l know Paddy will not kill himself and he will get over this in time and I hope he finds love again, would prefer for it not to be Mandy as I am not keen on the character but if the producer and scriptwriters put them back together again, so be it. Chas has not suddenly fallen in love again with Paddy, she just feels guilty about the affect her cheating has had on him.

I do not necessary think that Paddy should get back together with Chas, but I have noticed that her attitude towards him has softened. At times she has acted like she would be would be happy to return to a pre-Al state, if only so she has someone to belittle and bully.

chas could have hidden her car and she appeared to ignore him when she drove out of the driveway. She ignored his poor little face.

Not so long ago Mandy was bemoaning the fact her business was not making money, certainly will not be if she takes days of to hang about the B&B, and they had no money to fix the boiler. Now she is spending money staying at the B&B. - Oh the wonders of Emmerdale finances.

[Son of Cain]

There must be a Handbook "Soap Storylines by Numbers". The moment Ethan said he was going to ask Marcus to marry him, you just knew that Marcus had had an affair. Likewise with the staircase, just waiting for Joe to walk down. I cannot help but feel we had seen that exact scene before with different faces. It is all so predictable.

Where is a bomb, or a plane falling from the sky when you need one, to wipe out Charles and his entire family, including Marcus, maybe sparing Manpreet?.

[katie hunter]

A very hastily written storyline to write Marcus out.
I wonder if the actor decided not to renew his contract?

Naomi is really irritating 😒

[flappinfanny]

I am bored already of Bernice and Bob and the B&B. Bring back Pollard. However the scenes are 100% funnier than Corrie right now. Samantha Giles is saving those scenes right now, a class act.

If you cannot tell the difference between a dead man and a sleeping man you should not be running a B&B, unless Tim stops breathing when he is asleep

Why was Nicky picking up Thomas's clothes unfolding them and then refolding them exactly as they were in the first place.

[Son of Cain]

Why are Bernice and Bob handing out free Champagne to locals to pour down there necks? They are not their target market, apart from maybe the occasions when someone is turfed out of their home by there partner. Which does seem to happen frequently in the village, but unfortunately not frequently often enough to build a business on. Tourists are who they should be aiming at, so they should have saved the money they spent on booze, and used it on advertising and setting up a website. Bernice and Bob are not cut out for this business.

[flappinfanny]

I did smile at Wendy chucking that bucket of water over Bob. I think many of us have wanted to do that for a long time.

[Son of Cain]

now bernice, bob, bob's kids and fake nurse wendy live in the B&B, how many rooms there

I do not understand why they have all moved to the B&B, surely they all have somewhere to stay. Where was Bob and the kids living before. Bernice was living in a house where I think Diane lived.

When the B&B first opened I thought there was about 2 or 3 rooms 4 at the most, but I think Pollard and Val were living there then. Recently I think someone said there was 7 rooms.

[Son of Cain]

We all know Sam is not the brightest, but where was he going to run to when he left the shop, Ireland?

[Son of Cain]

Lydia said "they can barely afford heating", when Sam asked if he should offer Pollard compo, but they now have a full tank of oil. - Which raises the question, if they have a full tank, Pollard should have an empty tank, given their tank looked bigger than his. So has he not noticed that he has no heating.

Not sure they actually emptied Pollard's tank going by a few jerry cans... unless I missed something. quite possible as ITVX did not work for a few days for catch-up. But, with everyone working in the Dingle household, Zak getting a pension, I presume... why are they pushing this storyline with them and not with Dan, for example, who would make a much better example of the cost of living crisis....

When Lydia came home and asked why the heating was on, Vinny said the "tank was full again". They had two full jerry cans, which hold 20/25 litres each and two half sized ones, which is why I doubted they had a full tank, as that would have entailed many, many trips back and forward between the tanks. Looking at the size of the tanks if theirs was full Pollards had to be empty or very nearly so.

Sometimes they omit details and sometimes they add too many, in both cases they destroy credibility in storylines by just not giving enough thought to make them more plausible.

[Son of Cain]

Bob and his kids must have been living somewhere before he moved into the B&B, but I cannot think where that was, I think I had assumed he was living with Brenda, but it seems not. I think Brenda has been living with Eric for a while, because Faith stayed with them for a while.

People in Soaps are always moving in and out of each other's abides, it is a loncan you g running and frequently used subject for soap storylines, I do not know what they would do without this over used trope.
