So does Andy tell people that he shot Robert? I can't see anyone going down for this. If Robert finds out and thinks it was him I can see him trying to get him off. And they come up with a plan. Andy obviously thinks that this will get Ross of his back aswell. And Robert will feel that if he does this the whole Katie stuff may be put to bed aswell.

Saying all that though. Does anyone else think we might be leading to an Andy exit? Some things Kelvin has said have seemed a little like it could be. Even if we were surely they won't kill him off? A deadly showdown with Robert wouldn't be good for Rob either though.

I did think that Kelvin was hinting heavily in
an interview a few weeks ago that he might
be leaving?
Id be suprised if he did -in a way- as hes not
done much else and Andy to me is a very
limited character( I know his muscles have
their fans)
Also there arent many Sugdens left now.
Only Robert& Vic by birth & Diane & Andy
by marriage/adoption.
I agree not likely to have official punishment
for Roberts shooting. !? Have to see what
new producers take on situation is. His previous
experience on ED was some time ago??
That may affect his opinions/ decisions??

Isn't he into motor racing or something like that?

I do agree that it would be a surprise but not sure where he can go from here. He has the kids though so would be surprising if he left. But then Debbie will be going so will the kids be going with her?

How far in advance is the writing done? He doesn't start until new year and I would assume stories will be planned and in place for a few months at least?

Adam Thomas posted a photo on his Instagram few weeks ago from the village I think and was wearing a suit. Could suggest a court case though maybe? (Chrissie?) Not sure why else he would be wearing a suit unless for a funeral

Andy obviously thinks that this will get Ross of his back aswell. And Robert will feel that if he does this the whole Katie stuff may be put to bed aswell.

My impression is that Andy is discussing Robert's shooting with someone (Vicar Ashley?). Somehow this spreads around the village or just gets back to Robert.

I think that one thing seems to lead to another and Andy and Robert seem to be the ones involved in the car chase. We know that Robert had a gun when he was at the lodge with Aaron and Paddy earlier this summer (Robert's gun was different to Ross's gun), so maybe it's tooled-up Robert who chases Andy in the car chase? As Andy usually has a bulky Land Rover, this is no real usual match for Robert's sports car as far as speed and road handling go, so if anyone is going to overturn/crash it's most likely going to be Andy.

There has been at least one car crash before between Robert and Andy which ended very badly. In 2005, Andy was face-bashing Robert during a number of episodes over Robert trying to leave Emmerdale with Andy's wife Katie and the baby. Robert (then the previous girl-chasing guy, actor Karl Davies) drove off to leave Emmerdale but Andy followed in hot pursuit in a Land Rover with Max King in the passenger seat. Robert turned his car around and drove at Andy's oncoming Land Rover. Max King pulled Andy's steering wheel in the last seconds before collision could occur but Andy's car swerved off the road and overturned, trapping Max and Andy inside. Robert managed to pull Andy clear but Max was killed when the car exploded.

Maybe in 2015 some of this history repeats itself? So Robert pulls Andy out of a crashed car again and 'brotherly love' kicks in until the next time they get any chance of falling out?

This whole 'Katie'-based storyline has gone beyond a joke already and this 'warring brothers' period talked about by Kate Oates recently is just like 'Itchy and Scratchy' where anything can happen but everyone survives for more next time from a clean slate. We've had storyline take-offs very recently of 'Strangers on a Train' (Andy/Ross), then some of West Side Story' (Pete/Ross and the police/court to come, etc), then there are aspects from 'The Terminator' too (Ross). What a complete joke!

What I really think is that Kate Oates and Micheal Parr haven't realised that the latest Emmerdale storylines when aired on ITV soon have probably set up Ross to be the Most Hated Man in Britain with no possible return of public feeling. As Kate Oates is leaving her present job of Emmerdale Series Producer for a secure job like this at 'Corrie' by January 2016, the same cannot seem to be said for Micheal Parr who seems to be presently about to be 'done up like a kipper' by Kate Oates?

I just wish I was an Emmerdale storyliner because this is what I would plan to happen next:

What I think right now should happen is that there is a bad car crash after Robert chases Andy. Robert repeats his 2005 past form and saves Andy from his Land Rover. What I would really like to happen next is that the village 'good guys' Andy, Robert and Pete club together and gang up on chavvy/scally/scumbag, socially-diseased, Ross, even if it means putting Ross in jail/secure hospital or even killing Ross by Christmas 2015. The needs of the many in Emmerdale far outweigh the needs of the few, after all. Let's face it, we all love to see a baddie get his just desserts and well-deserved comeuppance. What goes around comes around! The strange thing is, I really liked Ross before 'Summer Fate', August 2015. Now I just can't wait to see him gone from Emmerdale quick enough!

Yes looking at spoilers now it is Ashley he confides in who then lets it out

At least Michael Parr is doing his Job properly. HE IS supposed to be a bad boy. Ross is going through a horrible spell right now. People turn on characters really quickly though. I like to see different sides to characters and I think it's interesting seeing these different layers. I mean until it has happened to you.. How can you know how being "buried alive" will affect you? There has to be some serious issues there. On top of what is already there. They just aren't being explored so it looks like Ross is just doing it because he can. people seem to love Robert just now and feel sorry for him forgetting what he has actually done. I mean I don't really like him much but can see a different side to him just now which is kinda refreshing. I'm not going to start saying characters should be axed because they are going through a bad spell. Cain is still there and what has he done in his time on the show.

Also how can you say "good guys" Andy, Robert and Pete. Especially Robert?

I don't expect Robert and Ross to be long term characters but I have no doubt they will be still here at Christmas and into new year or longer. Bad boys don't always need to get their comeuppance if they show different sides to them

It takes a story to change minds and I'm sure this wont be the last time people change their minds on characters. I'm sure Robert will be back being his manipulative self and Ross could have some nice moments again. It is what is good about soaps. Ups and down. would be boring otherwise
