Emmerdale - Suspension of Reality
There is an interesting thread about Coronation Street so I thought we could have one about the rest of the soaps. So here is Emmerdale's.

I don't understand why the Wyldes paid £500,000 for the church in Emmerdale and yet the pub cost only £400,000

Who would decided to open a chocolate factory in a hut in the middle of the country? At least the curtain factory made sense xD

I can only assume that the savings made in the cost of the building (it's in the middle of nowhere) and the localised workforce offset the increase in travel costs. |

It'd cost them a bomb to get ingredients shipped over and then someone has to drive there and then, when they sell the chocolates, someone has to take them from the factory.

Still it'd cost a lot of money to ship stuff in and out, not to mention how small the factory is...where does the conveyor belt go to?

Rodney is astounded that the car was rented.....oh please. Whats the first thing you do when obtaining a new car ..even if it is a gift (assuming you are law abiding)...register it? insure it? in either case the "fraud" would have come to light.
Bloody ridiculous |

I may be completely wrong here but would Laurel work at the factory all day? I always thought vicar's wives were like the First Lady and were around to help out their husband - if they had a job it would be part time.
The conveyor belt is a joke - the staff are all crammed round something no bigger than a ruler. |

Emmerdale Suspension of Reality
The speed with which Ashley was able to gain permission for Shadders to be buried on Dingle property. Surely this would take more than half an hour to arrange considering all Town Halls are staffed by little jobsworths? I always thought you could only bury someones ashes on unlicensed ground, otherwise people would be burying their Grannies, dogs, cats and people they dont like in their back (or front)gardens.

I thought wouldn't a mature lady like Diane, who has had cancer herself, would have thought Charlie looked very well for someone supposed to be suffering a brain tumour. He was in the pub every night and dashing over to France, etc. It never seemed to cross her or Rodney's mind.

What purpose is that factory? They all stick chocolates into boxes around a short conveyor belt. Where are the chocolates made? Where does that conveyor belt go to?
(Love the banter all the same - you can't beat a bunch of women gossiping at work) ![]() Dunno where it comes from though - I suspect from wherever the sweeties are made

The conveyer belt isn't meant to go anywhere. All the sweeties are meant to be packed into boxes before they fall off the end.

The lady prison officer taking an interest in Ryan is a SOR. As if she would lend him books and "tell him when his mother arrives". A bit too caring imho. Not very professional either. She'll be locking herself in with him at night at this rate.

They moved to Emmerdale from Loompaland to escape from the Whangdoodles, Hornswogglers and Snozzwangers. Unfortunately, no one told them that in Emmerdale they have the Dingles, the Kings and Viv..............!!!

This Scarlett "business" is stupid. She is supposed to be showing her brothers that she isn't an airhead, how exactly? By acting as an airhead?
Didn't think much of Bob and Val rolling around in the Woolie, sorry, not funny at all. |

The notion that Pauline Quirke and Dr Viv would be pals, even Viv going so far as to take fashion advice from a woman that dresses like an unmade bed.

Lots of the Emmerdale businesses make no sense. As if anyone would go into a restaurant in a tiny B&B in the middle of nowhere when there is a good pub next door

Has there ever been more a cliche-ed scene in which Andy went to see that counsellor. The counsellor tells him , very sharply," if you're not interested get out of my office" So he does , but then turns and sits down and the counselling continues.
In real life you would just walk out out, but it happens so often in soaps, that at the last moment they change their mind. |
