Classic Emmerdale ITV3

[JaneJeffer]

Anyone watching?

Actual farming, little Robert Sugden, young looking Pollard, Chris Tate, Seth Armstrong...

[ellenanora5]

Just saw your post on the emmerdale thread Jane, I'm going to watch on +1

Cheers

[JaneJeffer]

Wish I could record ITV3 but Sky is useless when it comes to ITV channels!

[JaneJeffer]

Chris Tate and his "cell" phone

[JaneJeffer]

Rachel looks the same age as her mother!

Wow just seen end of this, takes me back years!

[ellenanora5]

Can't believe that's 30 years ago, I feel old now.

Chris seemed much nicer then, it's funny I don't remember those episodes but I remember earlier, I remember when Robert was born and when Jackie died, also when Kathy lost her baby.

Is it Alan that would be up at home farm now then

Not a Dingle in sight

Seths gums frightening Robert made me laugh, if only they knew how horrible he would turn out

[JaneJeffer]

Robert was cute then and he's even cuter now

[FabulouslyFab]

Just watching this - isn’t it great!!! The good old days and farms

[JaneJeffer]

Yes Fab. Bring back the farming Emmerdale!

[sparklepops123]

Somebody's obviously cottoned on there's the audience for the old shows, I prefer the old corras and EastEnders and not watched emmerdale for yrs ( obvs gonna get hooked to this now )

[EggysMom]

I only found out about Classic Emmerdale today, so I've missed a couple of episode (and probably missed 20 years before then as they appear to be starting late 1989) but DH has set it to record with series link for me

Thanks for the thread jane

This is brilliant. Jack asking sarah on a date and then asking her to pay!!

[JaneJeffer]

I'm loving this. Seth is so funny "and they're wondering who it is an-all"

Frank Tate just arrived!

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

I always thought sarah was roberts mum. Who is his mum?

[JaneJeffer]

Pat was his mum. She died in a car crash when he was a baby.

I remember when this Sarah left and the new Sarah was in the next episode just talking over where she left off! Wouldn't happen these days

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

Thanks jane.

So what we’re watching now, is Kathy married to Joe?

[JaneJeffer]

No she's a widow of Jackie Merrick - Robert's brother!

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

Robert of robron? So jack had an older son? Or pat had an older son? Who married Kathy and then died? And Kathy lives with Joe?

[JaneJeffer]

Pat was his mother and it only came out when he was older that Jack was the dad. Before my time though.

I wonder what year they started showing it at 7? I was never home from work in time to watch before that.

[JaneJeffer]

I've had a google and it was 1990.

[ILoveMaxiBondi]

I didn’t realise it was ever shown at a different time! I was born in 86 and I think I remember watching from the early 90’s. I don’t remember what we’re seeing at the minute.

[JaneJeffer]

I remember my aunt watching it in the middle of the day in the 80's.
