Who's the hardest oldie in Emmerdale? I think Lawrence looks a tough cookie, but I have a feeling Pearl is hiding a solid right hook. I bet Edna has more to her 'secret past' than we know, perhaps a career in the secret service? :confused:

Let me know if I've missed anyone. I'm dying to know who you think the hardest woman in Emmerdale is too overall.

    Betty doesn't suffer fools gladly. She'd win in a fight against anyone.

    If tank was still in it I would say him. :( (R.I.P)

    I was going to say Gemma, but she's dead. :(

    Eric! He would be really tenacious in a scrap! I bet he would fight dirty too, biting and the lot!

    Yes! I wouldn't like to be in a fight with her. She'd probably take a broom to you.

    Diane is much younger than the rest. She's from Scarborough anyway isn't she (the actress) which weakens some of the Northern power. I reckon Val (real Geordie actress) would kick more ass than any of them. If Diane is classed as an oldie then Val should be too.

    Diane must be about 64/65. I dunno how younger Val is than her. Val looks about 55.

    You're just about spot on. The other oldies are in their 70s though at least.

    Diane (actress not character) is from Stockton of course which increases the hardness but still not as tough as Wallsend born Val actress. I think I'm going to have to go for Eric because he'd be a sly fighter with testicle kicking and bites with ferrety little teeth.
