Is there a general Emmerdale thread?

[Exmum]

I've found a couple of threads about particular characters but was wondering if there was one just for general observations and if we could have a hands up to see if anyone else cried at Brenda's hair thing. I thought all those tears and smiles looked real

Do I need to get a life?

I thought Steve might have been trying to blackmail Nicola to get information about Declan because he bought the racehorse that Steve wanted.

I was wondering what will happen to Debbie she has played a part in Gennies death and knows that Cameron killed Carl. Will she go to jail has been in jail before for something.

I just cannot see the handsomeness in Cain.

Ah, I think you've got a point about the racehorse thing, Nospring.

I wasn't watching properly, did Vanessa tell Rhona she fancied her?

I think Vanessa told Rhona that she loved her.

Don't really like this story line so wasn't really paying attention either.

Yes Vanessa did tell Rhona she loved her. Seems a bit of a red-herringy story line unless Rhona discovers she is gay or bi. But I think she's too busy internally bleeding and being addicted to painkillers to be having an issue with her sexual preferences at the mo.

Cain has awful skin and a crap hair cut which are a bit off putting in the handsomness stakes.

I think Cain has improved in looks as he's matured. He's a bit more fanciable than he used to be. I think Moira makes he seem a bit more acceptable now! I still find it weird that e is married to Rhona in rl. That's showbiz for you!

Wish Vanessa would bog off. I remember ages ago thinking she had a thing for Rhona as she was always just hanging around, like the third person in Rhona 'n' Paddys marriage.

I know it's only soap land, but sometimes folk are so blatant and no-one ever suspects. Like David's eyes in Corrie. Bloody obvious he's plotting!

Laurel is becoming a complete pita, she should leave and take the dreadful Vanessa with her.

I can't stand Vanessa.

Also,Brenda was saying to bob the other day that "he has no idea how she feels loosing a child"

Has he forgotten about his daughter Dawn?? And th is never mentioned by either of them. Brenda was with his dad Terry and he lived with them.

Why do soap people just forget people!
It's bizarre

I thought I heard Bob mention Dawn the other day and I wondered who she was.

:)

Shes his daughter, she was killed by the kings! They were builig an estate of houses (up near the big house I think) and they were shoddily built and there was an explosion on the opening day, she died.

she had a son tj with Terry - then Brenda got with Terry and lived with him and tj. Then Terry died in the fire and tj lived with her for a while before he wnt to morocco.

Which is why it baffles me that no one ever fuckig mentions them!!!!

Why did tj go to Morocco?!?

I'm at a point where I'm thinking of leaving emmer dale behind, it's doing my head in...please can someone reassure me that the following characters will piss off soon, and/or the story line will improve?
Cameron-WTAF? He's a serial killer, he's very creepy, and chas is love struck....time he got what's coming to him, he is awful.
Rhona-drug addict, we've had weeks of seeing her try to score, beg Vanessa, get pills from Vanessa, try to score, beg Vanessa, get pills from Vanessa....YAWN, so boring. And why can't she talk to paddy? He's lovely. Vanessa is awful, a real nasty controlling piece if work.
Laurel-FFS MAN up woman, God knows what she's gonna do next but she simpers and wines that much, if I were marlon I'd have lost it with her. Another stupid story line that's getting draaaaagggggeeeeedddd out to keep us 'on our toes' well I'm sorry but I'm on my back asleep it's so dull.

Cain is bloody gorgeous but much better when he's being bad...Moiras sorted him out a lot.
Oh, and it's about time jai was un masked as that babies real dad, how can ANYONE actually believe that Rachel would shag that old man????

I dunno, have they got a new writer or something? Who thinks we are all idiots?

I left eastenders years ago for similar reasons..... PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!!!

I've just watched the latest episode. Why the hell did bloody Marlon look like a kicked puppy when Laurel was shouting at him? I know she's had a bad experience but she was out of order. Why do the writers have to write scripts where folk are so badly behaved?? Have a bit of decorum, Laurel, FFS.

I wish Laurel and Ashley would get back together,don't believe her and Marlon work together.

Could the wardrobe department find Laurel a new coat that pink one she wears is hideous

On the plus side I think Arthur is a lovely little boy, he can out act some of the older actors.

My thoughts on Emmerdale

Laurel was speaking to Marlon as if he was a five year old, and he just takes it, it's wrecking my head watching the two of them, they are not suited as a couple at all. What is the point of Bernice?

Bernice is just another irritation, Ellenora

I like that, Nospring, 'My thoughts on Emmerdale' - good thread title

a bloody big one Beggingyou, she doesn't seem one bit bothered that her daughter is going to live at the other side of the world, mind you she was never bothered about leaving whatshername behind either.

Dawns mam lives in morocco so tj went to live with her. although bob and Brenda never mention him.

It winds me up!!!

I might email someone and ask for him to be mentioned in passing occasionally.

and bobs son- the or that was a postman and was shagging maralyn from h&a!!

and also viv. No one ever mentions her.

and has Edna won the lottery or somet??

A while ago she couldn't even afford a cheese Sarnie and now shes supping in the wooly with the rest of them!

Bob's son Jamie went to Cornwall, Gennie should have gone with him then she wouldn't have been murdered by Cameron

Edna's story line was very sad ,she was in lots of debt and her dog was very ill. It seem to get sorted very quickly .

I never forgive Charity how she treated Edna at that time.

I think Edna's got more money as she has a lodger now.

I also wonder why I keep on watching at the moment. Jackieohh sums up my feelings perfectly (except I find Cain a bit average looking as opposed to a specimen of male gorgeousness.

I think the Rhona plot is beyond boring/frustrating/irritating, as is the Laurel carjacking PTSD. She needs help and for her family's and viewers sake she should ring Victim Support, get some flipping counselling and put us all out of our misery.

Cameron, Declan & Katie are both frustrating and boring in turn. In fact the only bit that stops me nodding off at the moment is the Nicola/Steve stalking. Debbie is an utter pita still. Come ON writers and move stuff on.

Poor Paddy

I can't remember if I said the other day and I'm far too bone idle to scroll back but where did Rhona suddenly find a drug dealer?

the yellow pages :)
