No surprise. Though there was a lot of good stuff last year, there was also a lot of rubbish filler nonsense, add to that all the ONS 'rinse and repeat' tedium, over-long tedious story lines, completely unrealistic fantasy, and Emmerdale are off the list.

Emmerdale needs less 'Holyoaks' and more realism with characters that do not continually change personalities and stories that pay at least a little respect to reality and the recent history of the village.

This is maybe the start of Emmerdale shown to be slipping down the popularity ladder a bit. I wonder who could be the cause of that.

yea agree eddie and thing is ed can do some sls very well like Aaron's abuse and the Ross one where it seems they put a lot of effort into them but then they fall back to supposed comedy that is sometimes just childish nonsense and endless cheating stuff that is utterly boring and gives the impression they just think "now who can we put together next" without any real thought to the charecter

I think, but I'm not certain, it's for the calender year, January to December.

Ross and Cain was a very thoughtful scene

more stuff like that last year instead of the usual rubbish and they might have had chance of that award

why do ed seem to always have at least a reference to someone having a pee or other bodily function in most eps

I was thinking exactly the same thing - the rare toilet humour comment is ok in a comedic situation but it’s now at the point where it’s mentioned just for sake of it.

Apart from the Ross & Moses scene which I thought was nice, Moses smile/laugh was so sweet - there really wasn’t really much else of any great interest in that episode.

Michael Parr is performing brilliantly. Lots of superb acting from him. However, I don't like the character of Ross and I'm not very interested in the story because of that. I just don't care for the man that shot and nearly killed Robert. To make matters even worse for me, I can't stand Debbie and she's the other half of this story line.
