Emmerdale (ITV1 pace) - ** NO SPOILERS ** DNA denouement. April AWOL. Weedy Wendy's wordage

[TellingBone]

Crack on

Ok. Not sure what to make of tonight. The only thing I'm certain of is that 7pm for drug use, peodophile, violence, stabbing and a still birth is definitely not on at all. 9pm watershed is there for a reason.

April must have been pregnant for a while as she had a proper bump and that was definitely a dead baby in the bag. The only boy she's been interested in is Arthur and he's gay. Unless they had sex before he realised he was gay 🤷🏻‍♀️

How many months would April have been?

Looked about 5-6 months judging by her bump @JewelleryCat

Oh and forgot to mention prostitution in my list of unsuitable viewing at 7pm.

If the father is Arthur, I thought he figured out he was gay more than 6 months ago. I can’t think of anyone else who could be the father

How long has Sam been in prison? I’ve lost track of time. Long enough for it not to be him?

Wasn’t Arthur away in Australia for months and we knew he was gay long before then. I wonder if the baby’s father will be revealed in another flashback episode.

Yes that's the problem @JewelleryCat I'm pretty sure Arthur has been gay for at least a year. April hasn't been seen with any other boys. And it means she would have been pregnant when she was kidnapped and dangled off the car park roof. Nothing makes any sense.

You mean Samson? Could be a possibility. Him and April are second cousins I think but being related has never stopped the Dingles in the past!

The father will probably be somebody who's never been seen or mentioned before.

Yes, sorry I meant Samson

Totally agree with you, it was too much for that time.

It's Emmerdale for god's sake not some bloody crime riddled drama, between all the shit with Anthony and now this with April it's like they've completely forgotten it's a soap.

I'm getting really annoyed with it, the last few months have been noting but violence and cheating and crime.

Probably. They do like to throw a curve ball in and introduce a back story that noone has seen or heard of before.

No, I don’t remember seeing her with anyone either apart from Arthur. Maybe someone from school? I don’t think there are any teenage lads in Emmerdale Aprils age though she could have gone with someone older

Sam is not Aprils baby's father. Behave.

How long has Anthony been in the show? Is it possible hemis the father of her baby? Wonder if she's still alive or are we.meant to think she's dead and the bad news is he is telling them that she is in hospital and has lost the baby?

I can't think of anyone local who could be the father. I don't think April had any interaction with Anthony either.

Well I wasn’t expecting that, especially at 7 o'clock on a Tuesday night

I do feel for anyway one watching with younger children. There’s a lot to unpick and discuss you wouldn’t expect to see at that time

They meant samson.

Anyway what did she do with the baby? Will it (he?) Be found and traced back to her like in corrie with toyah and Rose?

@Middlemarch123 Yes! She had April's purse didn't she? She must have got it back before being stabbed.

Who was the person April was calling? Somebody from school? I imagine that'll be the father.

Agree @PrincessScarlett far too much for 7 pm.

Sorry. I think I need to stop being in such a grumpy mood.

It might be Josh who hung around with Samson, the person who stabbed Mattie.

Oh yes it could be.

The thing is that April looks so young and it makes it even worse!

She was friendly with Ross for a while?

Yes April does look very young. Not 15 at all although I believe the actress is older. I think April did a decent job tonight. I couldn't imagine Cathy or Angelica pulling it off.

I really liked her new friends in the squat and would like to see more of them. Although unfortunately the girl is dead.

I don't think April is dead. I think she's in hospital and they will realise she's just given birth. No doubt we'll have wailing Marlon dashing to the hospital tomorrow night.

Absolutely no way would Ross go there. He's a father figure to her.

Noooo! Ross is like another dad to her.
