Classic Emmerdale: No calm after the storm

[JaneJeffer]

Happy New Year 2004 everyone

Blimey. Not keen on the choir version of How Deep is your Love.

And yes, Steph is an awful woman.

If was a terrible version. I struggled to work out what they were singing at first!
I thought Ethan asked about a choir but it only looked and sounded like there were 2 of them.

Love how they've managed to write in Nicola's real life brace on her teeth.

I was just thinking it was good that Rodney had stopped calling Nicola "Princess" when he did it again yesterday. It really turns my stomach 🤮.
I've disliked both his daughters since they ever appeared.... and still do. Horrible and entitled madams.

I don't understand how Nicola is treated like a teenager and pampered and called girl, she must be in her 20s, I was married with 3 kids by 25, no parental help🙄 She is a fully grown woman

I wish Lisa had a volume control button. She seems to do nothing but really yell at everyone.

IRL, that would likely be classed as abusive and Zac would be advised to LTB 😀

Then again, Zac's not much better.

I would shout too if the Dingles were my family😅

I love Lisa ...
She was laying into Shadrach....then turned to lawyer and calmly ask if he wanted a brew ....he was too scared to say no !!

Bernice is truly awful...almost on a par with Steph

I know we criticise current Emmerdale for randoms appearing out of nowhere but now we've just had Val - the sister no-one knew existed, turn up at Diane's.
I didn't realise she was in it that long ago. Another character I disliked 🙄

I never understood why Val and Diane had such different accents .
Are they 1/2 sisters or something...brought up separately like Nicola and Bernice ?

(I do love a Geordie accent though !)

Had to laugh at Zoe, multi-millionaire, baby, 2 businesses to run and trying to do the decorating herself! I would be paying someone else to do it 😅

I love Val

"Like I'd rip off a Dingle" no but you might rip the clothes off a certain Aaron in years to come

I love the way Simon is playing Nicola.

I don't like Nicola but Simon just annoys me.

I think he's really funny

I do too.
He's played a blinder with Nicola, playing it cool so she thought he wasn't into her. She couldn't bear the thought of someone not wanting her.

We're getting to the era of hideous skimpy outfits now

I like Simon as well (rip)
.he could have changed the whole dynamics of Nicola if it had continued.

I honestly can't remember Simon at all so I'm wondering if it's getting to the time when I gave up on it for quite a few years.
In the light of the current shite, I've no idea why I bothered watching again!

Ooh it's one of the Kings. Is it Carl?
Didn't watch much when they were first in it.

Yes I thought it was Carl King but that wasn't the surname he gave, was it?
No doubt up to some dodgy shenanigans.

Fast forwarding through the Dingle nonsense even though for once it isn't their fault. I used to like Lisa but all she does is shout and bawl.

Katie's constant screeching makes me hit the fast forward button
