Classic Emmerdale: No calm after the storm

[JaneJeffer]

Happy New Year 2004 everyone

About 11 I think?

So already being abused by Gordon according to the retcon

The extra sitting behind Chas looks like her

Poor Aaron, neither of his parents can pronounce his name.

Is it the same Gordon on a different one?

Different, the other one was a scouser

Never could stand the Dingles, in fact they are the reason why I stopped watching all those years ago! Will see if they have the same effect this time around😅

I think the Dingles get far too much air time. There are so many of them that they seem to take over. They're horrible, lazy and loud. In fact very few of them have a redeeming feature. I think it's the constant shouting with Zak and Lisa that's really annoying me this time.

Why does Louise hate Chas so much? Apart from the fact that she's Chas I mean Did something happen?

Not that I'm aware of. Probably just because Chas is such a horrible cow...... and a Dingle.

Louise seems to be horrible to everyone at the moment...well for a while actually!

I think chas has put her nose out of joint as being a young barmaid..(I wanted to put attractive in the sentence as well ...but my phone wouldn't allow me!!😂)

It is obvious that the script qritters just make up past stories as they go along without looking back at older episodes.

Arreon seems to really like his dad and Sandra at the moment.

And Chas was yelling at Shadrach about how she made sure she got Cain to school and stay there or something.

In that flashback episode..Cain seem to be the one looking after Chas as he seems at least 5 or more years older than her.?

Pearl doing karaoke 😆 Meg Johnson has the cast in stitches 😂

When people still wrote letters

"If he's a sexbomb I'm Marlyn Monroe"

That was such a silly episode. I had to fast forward through Laurel's rambling - it's unusual for me to FFWD through anybody else apart from the Dingles.

Chas is a complete cow.

I thought it was a good laugh. Laurel chatting away to the Finnish man, and the passport guy was great.

Funny that @JaneJeffer we all have different ideas.
Like when we all hated "She who must not be named" and other people were enthusing over her amazing acting.

I think because present day is so dire I'm really enjoying classic Rara.

I love when they do karaoke. Terry is a great singer.

Very true! Yes he is a great singer and does a good English accent even though he's Scottish.

He had to sing while being drunk with the after affects of a stroke in a different accent and did it brilliantly.

Yes - back in the day when the cast could actually act. Sadly now in the minority.

Ohh I am with Jane !
I had quite a few giggles at those two episodes today !

The sex bomb/Marilyn Monroe quip made me laugh out loud which doesn't always happen with soaps these days !

How on earth was laurel going to Helsinki for a new life with just hand luggage!!

And very small vanity case sized hand luggage as well !

How on earth was Laurel being offered a job as an au pair over the phone?
So much nonsense in those episodes.

New announcer, love her accent.
