I've only recently started watching Emmerdale and I was wondering what Andy's background was before he came to the village and what happened to his real mother?
i don't know much but his mother was killed in a fire started by him.
I thought he killed his step-mom in the fire.
His real dad is in prison and he was adopted by sarah and jack sugden, then he killed sarah (by accident) in a fire he started. I don't know anything about his real mum though. Daz is his half brother I think, they have the same dad.
Andy Sugden will get a new love in the shape of post totty Maisie Wylde
I wish Andy would leave or die
Wanting him to die is a bit harsh, don't you think? I might not like a character but never wanted one to die. :(
You are probably right it is too harsh ( me in terrible form at the moment :angry: friends visiting :lol: ) i just cant stand the character of Andy and with Jack's death, him losing baby Sarah and Jo leaving maybe its time he left also - they is not much more they can do with the character
He could just start to turn his life around again ??
he's a waste of space and screen time. Get shot of him now. He's not even a decent actor. Oh yes and take his hair to Debbies Garage for an oil change!!!
I hope they're going to give him a good wash and clean before they unleash him on another poor girl.
ANDY misses a key custody hearing about Sarah * because he is being quizzed by the police about trying to hit Cain with his car!
Ever since Jo left the village, Andy has been trying to convince everybody that his violent tantrums are behind him, and that he's a good father to his little girl.
But Cain is prepared to do anything to make sure Debbie wins custody of Sarah * including using Andy's shameful past against him!
Despite Debbie saying she doesn¹t want to play dirty, her dad tells the authorities that Andy used to beat up his wife.
Later, Cain takes pleasure in revealing his actions to Andy * who instantly sees red!
The fuming farmer puts his foot down, intent on turning Cain into road-kill, but Cain is able to dash out of the way.
Later, as the hearing approaches, Andy is carted off by the cops for questioning over the incident, having been grassed up by Cain!
With Andy a no-show, the case gets adjourned. Has Cain destroyed Andy's chances of keeping Sarah?
From The Sun
How long is this custody between the Dingles and the Sugdens going to last for neither one of them are fit to bring up Sarah.
It may go on for a while yet,
Spoiler:
I read it in a soap mag, but Andy is supposedly going to go suicidal again.
I agree neither are suitable parents to bring Sarah up, but Sarah loves them both, plus she has known Andy longer and as her dad, were as Debbie has just become the 3rd Mum to her, poor love doesn't know who is her Mum.
Oh no not another suicide plot by Andy does he need help in making sure he get's it right this time. Sarah should have been left with Emily at least she cared for her. How long will it be before Debbie get's bored or lands in trouble again. Neither her or Andy are going to do what is best for Sarah they're only thinking of themselves. None of them should have custody of her.
I can just see the smirk on Cains face when all this happens, put it this way I bet if Cain hadn't returned we would'nt have this storyline, as all the storylines this year seem to be Dingle related, well they are every year.
I agree Debbie will get bored, especially if Cain is not by her side all the time, being the instigator in everything she does.
Am I the only one who is not keen on Cain getting away with everything that he does so far, it has been annoying watching him set people up then come across as the hero. SNITCH
So are they finished now?
Losing custody of his daughter Sarah will lead Andy into a deep depression, loss of his farm and to a suicide attempt and will he succeed or will his ex Debbie be his only hope??????????????????
I really wonder if it will be Debbie that gets him back on the straight and narrow.:hmm:
Who else agrees that Sugdens not being farmers is just plain wrong, Andy needs to get back to normal then get another farm:hmm:
What surprises me is that Zak hasn't done more to help or advice Andy. I know Debbie is his grandaughter and he wants her to have custody of Sara but Zak and Jack were good mates they always had respect for each other. So why isn't Zak trying to help both Andy and Debbie come to a suitable arraangement about Sara and help him with the farm.
I agree about the whole Zak/Jack part. But the producers have decided that this is the only way that they can possibly go with Andy's character as the last producer totally destroyed his character with the abuse storyline, now the producers have decided the only way that he can come go good is by hitting rock bottom, which is what we are going to see in the next few weeks, it does make me wonder who will save him, with Daz gone:crying: who can possibly help him, and from what I have read the Sugdens seem to have washed their hands of him:hmm:
There isn't any Sugdens left in the dales. Diane is away visiting Bernice I think and the only family Jack had apart from Annie was a cousin Matt who left the dales over 20 years ago so Andy wouldn't know who he was. The only other person apart from Zak to help Andy out would be Alan Turner.
They need to introduce a distant cousin or relative to the Sugden family, hey if the Dingles have relatives coming out of the woodworks every so often, why cant the Sugdens do it. They could try and bring back Robert, but Karl is busy with Kingdom so I doubt it, It's a shame they sacked Luke, because Daz was like a Sugden and he had been brought up knowing how to be a farmer, like Andy had.
The only one who could really come back and help sort Andy out apart from Diane is Kathy she was Jack's daughter-in-law she was married to Jack's son who died about 20 years ago. She's in Australia the last time she was in the dales was for Seth's funeral. Apart from that it would be to invent a long lost relative like the dingles do. Either that or someone in the villiage like Edna rallies the villiagers into helping on of their own as she took in Andy and Daz's real dad Billy when he was released from prison.
I would love for Kathy to come back, I loved her she was amazing around the time when Andy burned the barn down.
Does anyone know if the Wyldes own the Sugdens old farm as one of their tenant farms, because that could be a great story for Andy if he gets his feet back on the ground, to take on the Sugdens old farm, but he would need help from someone, I still think they should bring back Daz
Daz won't be back for at least another year or two, once he has served his community serivce. But they need someone to help Andy cope with his breakdown.
Yeah I reckon Daz is likely to come back next year, Luke only got 200hours of Community service, it wouldn't take that long to finish it in 2 years. He may not be wanted because of what went on between him and Vic:wub: Andy kicked him out for taking advantage.
But the storyline that they seemed to have wrote out for Andy this summer, seemed to suggest that someone would help him, which originally Daz was supposed to be returning late Sumer, tying in with this storyline:hmm: , but as the Lizann said Debbie may be the one to help him through his tough ordeal, well after reading the spoilers of when Debbie won custody, she seems keen on letting Andy be a key part of Sarah's life, probably behind Cains back:hmm:
Yes, Maisie had enough of cleaning his house for him and looking after Sarah, Andy did not appreciate what she did and she wants fun, not responsibility. She dumped him
What happend to Joe Sudgen (Jack's brother) maybe a long lost of kid of his could show up.
Emmerdale needs the Sudgen as farmers
Jacks brother died I think, I think he died in the plane crash years, I dont know if he had any children, hey he could out of wedlock.
I agree the Sugdens as farmers is just plain wrong, but Butlers was Andy and Katies farm, not the Sugdens, Emmerdale Farm was the Sugden farm but Jack had financial difficulties, leading Andy to burn the Barn down.
I wonder who runs Emmerdale Farm as Andy could possibly run that when he recovers from his depression, but he DOES need someone to help him, I still say bring Daz back
I doubt they will bring Daz back even if he has served his time by the summer. Emmerdale have been in no rush to bring Scott back and he was found innocent of his crime so I wouldn't hold my breath for Daz to return.
Scott didn't have a storyline in the soap when he left, where as Daz had a storyline going before he left, leaving the storyline that he had going left unfinished and up in the air.
I think that the Sudgens need a distant relative that could have done some reaseach into there family tree and discovered (Prehaps Annie had a sister or brother they lost contact/had a fued and now that line may Olive branch there Children can come in and could make the Sudgens a family again)???
Kelvin Fletcher is ready to quit the show.
He has played troubled Andy Sugden for 12 years but says he’s now ready to try other acting projects.
Kelvin, 26, said: “I want to do something controversial, but not theatre or Shakespeare – that’s a bit too old school for me.”
:cheer: hope it happens
See you in Panto then at Christmas :rotfl:
Its about time :cheer:
I can't say i'll miss him, its a shame they had to ruin his character.
Where's the source, because I have read this ages ago about him wanting to persue others acting careers, which is understanding being in a soap for a long time, but I will miss his screen prescence.
He should talk to Emma Atkins, she failed when she left a soap because she thought she was bigger than the show.
