Emmerdale - Robbie and Finn?

I am the only one who believes that is leading to something? I still think they are building it up so that Finn tries to kiss Robbie, and he initially backs off, but then Robbie kisses him back. I definitely think it is leading to something... Any thoughts on this? Agree, disagree?

    I think that the producers are intent on keeping Finn as the only celibate (onscreen, that is) Barton.

    Hopefully not. Turning Robbie gay just smacks as a desperate move to try and get him popular. They should just axe him and be done with it.

    If it signals the end of Robbie lingering around in the background like an evil pixie then I'm all for it. The actor is decent and there are a whole host of characters I'd rather see gone before him. Creepy,looming stalker James for one.

    No, I disagree. They're not "turning him" into anything, if he is. He always was, and has merely kept it quiet because he was obviously uncomfortable with it, or just not willing to 'come out'. As for axing his character, I quite like the actor, so I wouldn't want that.

    Well, I don't think the blackmail part will last for long. I think Robbie and Finn will just laugh about it, which may further develop their relationship and eventually lead to a small and romantic kiss (possibly outside the casino) that Robbie will initially rebuff.

    Ooh, I haven't watched tonights episode yet! I would love for them to get together. I really enjoy watching them both on screen.

    And Lois who cares about Aaron. These two are far more interesting than him!

    :D:D That did make me laugh - totally bang on the money.

    Yep, something is definitely brewing. And I'm finding Robbie a lot more likable recently (a little light foreplay-style blackmail aside), so I'm all for it too. There's loads of potential for them to team up in mutual loathing of Hot Declan, then for it to develop in unexpected directions.

    I think Robbie and Finn could be great partners in crime so to speak, they get on well and are similar in a lot of ways.
    I like the way they have introduced Finn as a character who also happens to be gay, not as a gay character.
    Relationships make the soaps go round, of course they do, but so do fantastic storylines, so I hope that this current storyline isnt heading down that same old road but into something much more entertaining than Robbies possible coming out angst, we've been there already with Aaron and that didnt end well.
    Robbie has really grown on me, I couldnt stand him when he first came along, but he has given me a few laughs, he has great timing with his one liners and I think he has much more to give now than being a background part timer.
    Finn, yes please find him someone, he needs some distraction before he gets himself into real trouble, but not contrived by changing another characters sexuality to fit a storyline.

    Don't think anyone actually cares about Aaron - however he has only 2 strengths, his gayness and his weeping, so where else could he be used?

    I think the two of them have the potential to become the Kray Twins of the Dales.

    We already know that Robbie is an expert enforcer & protector, from that time he used his muscle to fiercely guard Debbie.
    I don't recall many folk taking diabolical liberties with Debs when Robbie was providing an iron blanket around her.

    Finn meanwhile already has the 1960s glasses, is gay, and has the necessary about him to be the brains behind their outfit.

    I can see Declan smiling at them soon, and Robbie subsequently producing his tool and making him 'smile' for the rest of his frickin' life.

    This is soap! That's the PERFECT basis for a relationship! :D

    Yep, I agree something is brewing there - not sure exactly what yet though. Hope it's something good because I like both characters. Robbie is so much more likable now, and he desperately needs a proper storyline.

    BiB: I like Aaron, always have done. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean that no-one else does. IMO speaking for several million viewers is rather arrogant.

    He certainly does seem to be the only one treating Robbie anywhere near normal..... but I think they will just develop as good mates (nothing on a sexual basis)

    Robbie's line in tonight Emmerdale, "Me too," with regards to being a different person, I think was a subtle hint that he was secretly hiding his sexuality and wished he could just be as comfortable with it as Finn. I think that is what it is leading to. The guy Finn met will find out his is not Declan / Dexy, and leave him and then soon Robbie will try and kiss him. (Yes, I now believe that Robbie will make the first move, to a shocked Finn.)

    Well, I have thought this since the Robbie and Finn first appeared on screen together in Emmerdale, and Robbie's line in tonight's Emmerdale made me think it even more. Robbie said "Me too," with regards to being a different person, and I think was a subtle hint that he was secretly hiding his sexuality and wished he could be as comfortable with his sexuality as Finn is with his. I think that is what it is leading to. The guy Finn met will find out his is not Declan/Dexy, and leave him and then soon after Robbie will try and kiss him, much to Finn's shock. Robbie will run off and Finn will find him and they'll talk over it, or Robbie will brush it aside.

    What do you all think? Is Emmerdale's Robbie gay? I certainly do, and it will come out soon-ish.

    I thought Robbie definitely looked a touch jealous tonight about Finn and SlimySimon. :o

    There is definitely something brewing between them. I just wonder when or if it will happen.

    Yes, they are both mine but cover different points in each.
