Sorry if I've spelt that wrong.

Tuned into Emmerdale tonight to see Berenice back. My gosh though! What the hell have they done to Ashley? He looks like hes had a mental breakdown, dragged through a hedge, then slept rough for a few months. Hes aged about 30 years in the space of 2. :eek:

    He's not a vicar anymore. He is a farm labourer now...

    I made a thread about this ages ago, but nobody saw fit to comment on it! I just don't get the reason why he still has that disgusting looking beard! And how nobody mentions it is completely ridiculous, but then it was the same with the rapidly shrinking Hazel too, nobody even mentioned her weight loss! But at least that could be explained by the actress wanting to lose weight, what is the excuse for Ashley's beard? Does the actor think it's attractive? Because I have news for him....

    I think the beard really suits him. He looks less simple now.

    The actor said it was a symbol of his almost character transformation. He has been stripped off all his history almost and is back to square one as a new person.

    Some men use facial hair to reflect their mood I guess.

    It's horrid. It looks like a dead rat around his mouth.

    Ashley has a lot more life to him these days I think, he doesnt have to be who everyone expects him to be now that he's no longer a priest

    I think he should return to the Church , it would be interesting to see how he handled it and how his congregation handled it .

    I think he would look better with his beard if he had a hair cut.

    I love his development. I had hoped for ages that they would do something bold and different with the character when he was a Vicar, because he got boring. I find him much more interesting now. :)
