Emmerdale, still rolling through the dales...no spoilers please

[ellenanora5]

Moses is still the cutest person in the show

Will Pete and Rhona go the distance

Will Victoria and Matty couple up

Will Rodney last another thread

I'm not loving it, though.

I know it's a play on the surname Tate, but it always conjures up a picture of a potato for me.

Mind you, it depends what the baby looks like......

Well with Debbie and Joe as parents I suspect the baby will just be a set of cheek bones.

and eyelashes. There will definitely be eyelashes.

I miss Joe and his lovely eyelashes and posh voice.

I think Tatum is perfect because it reminds me of Tatum O'Neal who could pass for a member of the Dingle clan.

The piano music is Elton John, his rags to riches story, supposed tearjerker for john lewis £7million advert.

I called Elton Johns music “shitty restaurant music”

Tearjerker? Oh that poor billionaire

Can somebody fling Maya into the quarry please.

Frank and what's-his-face are obviously going to get involved in something dodgy at the art gallery. Yawn.

I love sassy Brenda.

Yes, you're quite right about Joe's eyelashes, JaneJeffer.

I am an absolute pushover for a man with gorgeous eyelashes!

Maya is creepy, her scenes with Jacob are creepy, I found that hard to watch to be honest, sometimes we don't need hard hitting storylines.

Feck sake I just want everyday humdrum stuff now and again, a bit of a laugh, ordinary silly arguments between couples, like whose turn it was to the dishes or something daft which escalates into someone sleeping on the sofa but getting up in the morning and making breakfast to say sorry.

Too much going on as usual, pregnant/not pregnant, who bloody cares, Tracey auntie dying, completely point less, Diane and Marlon giving a hoot about Victoria and who she sleeps with eff off and mind your business she's a grown up.

Too many episodes, bring it back to three times a week, and get rid of most of the Dingles, especially Debbie, Marlon and Charity, that should free up the script writers time

I miss Joe . Can he come back now ?

Jo I agree. I miss his eyelashes too and his sulky mug.

Maya is creepy, her scenes with Jacob are creepy, I found that hard to watch to be honest,

Same. It’s really uncomfortable viewing.

God. That's just awful between Maya and Jacob. It's nerve-grindingly desperate.

Joe - please. Still can't stand Graham. He's a terrible actor.

Joe’s toast and isn’t ever coming back.

I thought Maya would turn into a groomer of Jacob but now think Emmerdale wouldn’t go there with the controversy. My guess now is that he’ll turn into a stalker.

Im not sure, when Jacob kissed her she closed her eyes and kissed him back for a second before catching herself on. Rather than being instantly horrified. Also she didn’t tell David. I think they might be going with a grooming story.

I wonder how it will affect him after what Lachlan did to Alicia. Will he feel that he's as bad?

I'm not sure either Posie. Maya has made too many inappropriate comments before Jacob kissed her to think Emmerdale will go down the stalker route. And at the end last night she had a sly little smile on her face.

I think when whatever is going on does come out she will accuse Jacob of harassing her and cause a rift between David and Jacob. Tracy will believe Jacob because of what happened to Alicia.

Also, Maya caused all sorts of problems between the doctor and his daughter so she has form for manipulation. There's also the weird thing with her mum which must have been introduced as part of the storyline.

Yen’s there is definitely more to Maya’s story than we know yet. They’ve alluded to troubled relationships with everyone she mentions!

She liked that kiss, you could tell.

She didn't recoil violently and behave like she was horrified, did she?

Oh I'm not liking this Maya/Jacob storyline. It's so obviously grooming. Why on earth didn't she put him straight and tell him there would never ever be anything between them.

Weeks ago the doctors daughter told David and Jacob again and again that Maya is trouble but they didn't believe her. I think there will be a lot to come out about Maya.

As an aside, why is David on crutches? Have I missed something?

So it does like a kind of grooming story but I expect they won't have sex because the controversy isn't something ITV will want. After a few furtive snogs, I agree with Scarlett's theory that she'll turn psycho.

Which gives room for Tracey and David to get back together soon afterwards.

I think he must have hurt himself in real life as he 'slipped on an olive' or something as stupid and just walked in on crutches a couple of episodes ago.

Like when Matt Le Blanc broke his arm so Friends had to quickly write in the bit about Joey jumping on his bed.

Poor Jacob is being manipulated but he thinks its love, teacher and student go on the run is my guess, she's a cow.

Just remembered something, when Jimmy was saying he had no family left it reminded me he had a sister called Scarlet, wonder what happened to her and her Mum who was played by Linda Lusardi as far as I remember.
