Emmerdale with social distant acting, it's not great but better than nothing.....

[ellenanora5]

It's been such a strange year for us all but never more so than for the people of the dales, what will Christmas and the New Year episodes bring...........some lighthearted relief I hope but probably not.

Oh please let there be justice for Frank. I'd forgotten it was charity money they were stealing (rather than factory money) before they set the factory on fire. Despicable!

Please disappear

Doesn't Nate have cattle?

Lovely to see extras in the Woolie.

Kim is so up to something. Who in their right mind would invite their son's one night stand to live with them? And she's implying there's a future for Gabby and Jamie by saying Gabby will learn how to deal with him. She is deliberately driving Jamie away.

Thanks StillCoughingandLaughing never knew Mill Cottage is actually 2 flats

Liv's house is actually a fancy looking flat - news to me

I don’t know if we’ve ever seen the other flat on screen. Didn’t Ellis live there for a while?

Poor Lisa Riley having to utter the lines "You're addicted to gambling, I'm addicted to you " to the loathsome Paul

What's happened to kerry? Is she still in it or has she left? I can't remember seeing her on screen for months, but have no recollection of her leaving.

The actress is on maternity leave, but I don’t think she had an on-screen exit because of the filming break. I think Dan briefly said she was visiting a mate or something.

Justice for Frank ! Amy needs to go

Great to see Asan N'Jie will be back on TV. He’s got a part in Bloodlands which was filmed in NI. @JackieWeaverIsTheAuthority you missed him

Another confused Emmerdale actor, Jurell Carter on Nate being squeamish about birth even though he's a farmer:
"when I first heard it I was thinking this doesn't make any sense but I tried to find the realism in it".
I wonder if he found it because no one else has!

Just been catching up on Friday’s episode - the folic acid scene was ridiculous. ‘Oh, so you’re NOT going to have an abortion? Whilst I’m evidently surprised by this, I’ve still brought supplements usually taken during pregnancy with me just in case. I’ll now hand them to you in a café owned by the two most notorious gossips in the village. That’ll make sure it stays a secret’.

New thread ahead of tomorrow as we’re short on space:

Raging!! Would love to have seen him.

I don’t understand the Nate storyline. It’s clearly gearing up for them to separate or something. Or for Nate to leave? Otherwise there’s absolutely no point to this story.

Pregnant Gabby- yawn. How predictable. And boring.

Paul makes me cringe on sight... and not in a good way

@BlueThistles

Totally! I can’t stand him. I swear his eyes get smaller every episode. They’ll disappear soon.

I've noticed this too.. almost as though the actor is making himself seedier lol

Maybe he can hardly open his eyes because he's exhausted from being on all the bloody time.

Coming up on Emmerdale...
Marlon and Paddy realise the reason why they've never met the right woman is because they're made for each other, they declare their love to each other and have a big fancy wedding.
Lachlan and Robert meet in prison and plan an escape together. They kidnap Paddy and Marlon asking for a giant ransom, which no one wants to pay. So Robert just shrugs and says "what can you do?" And saunters back to Aaron, so Liv uses her "inheritance" to pay off the one, bored looking police officer Emmerdale has. Lachlan continues to torture Paddy and Marlon, cos he's Lachlan.

In the meantime, Ethan sulks around telling on people's secrets that have nothing to do with him or affect him in anyway. "Oh see Chas, I know you ate the last bar of chocolate when you thought no one was looking "

But that would mean giving Aaron some screen time and the producers won't be having that. They give him two lines every time he calls in for his wages.

I love Aaron. But everytime he comes on screen now I am fearful Ben will pop up and we'll get their tedious conversations zzzzz
