Emmerdale - Paul’s got debts to pay, Luke’s secretly gay and Gabby’s in the family way... NO SPOILERS!

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

New thread ahead of a new week

[Sparklingbrook]

Not watched for a few months. Thinking of tuning in again-good ides or not?

[Sparklingbrook]

*idea even

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

In all honesty, it’s been pretty poor lately. But I have seen a spoiler for next week that makes me very happy.

[Sparklingbrook]

Ooooh, I might get into it again.

I could watch on catch up. Can't be doing with Mandy. I saw Debbie came back for a bit with the weird Al thing has she gone back to Scotland for good?

[MrsSteveMcDonald]

It's all shite at the moment but I still watch it

[JaneJeffer]

Thanks @StillCoughingandLaughing love the title

[Jojoanna]

Always in soaps have a one night stand get pregnant immediately

[StillCoughingandLaughing]

The only time you don’t get pregnant in soap is when you desperately want to.

[JaneJeffer]

👀

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

This Nate/blood stuff is ridiculous.

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

A new bromance brewing there @JaneJeffer?

[JaneJeffer]

How cute is Carl!

God it's a breath of fresh air having no Paul in the episode.

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

Who in their right mind would give that sort of note to a little boy. For starters is he even old enough to read it? Does he have a phone??

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

So was gabby saying she isn’t pregnant?

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

Yet?

[JaneJeffer]

Did she? I was making dinner so not giving my full concentration.

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

I’m not sure. I’m a bit confused. Kim said something about Jamie and gabby being a little family and gabby said they needed a baby to have a family and they were some months away. I think I’ve just misinterpreted it. She obviously meant the baby won’t be here for a few months.

[RaraRachael]

Tonight was so stupid with all that Nate blood stuff. I was almost shouting at the telly every time he made that silly noise.

Conversely Stillcoughingandlaughing I've seen a spoiler that fills me with dread. Yet another character I can't stand making a return

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

@JaneJeffer I’ve just stuck bloodlands on to see Asan N’Jie and it was only bloody filmed 10 minutes away from me! Ffs. I could have put him and Jimmy up for the night!

[DontFuckItUp]

I took it to mean she was hoping by the time the baby came they would be a couple?

[JaneJeffer]

You wish

[JaneJeffer]

Maybe not Jimmy though

[JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority]

You’re right there!

[SlatternIsMyMiddleName]

Another vote for “ Yey, No Paul”. Sad times when that is a marker for a decent episode.

[JaneJeffer]

I went back to watch the bits I missed. A good episode where we got to see actual people and families instead of cartoon characters. Loved the Laurel/Jai scenes and Jimmy/Nicola. Even Jamie was decent and funny (maybe there's hope for him to be more like Chris ). It shows that with decent writing and no deadweight characters Emmerdale could be good again.
