Do the actors not get on with each other, it's just that PJ has just tweeted with regard to Emmett's interview on DS

@peejaybrennan: Regardless of how he felt about me, I'm surprised Emmett felt the need to disparage our hard work to make the same show he made for 3yrs.

From what I can gather based on interviews with the actors and from PJs twitter account it seems like there's a bit of professional jealousy.
I don't think Emmett likes anything ruining his Stendan legacy. The only person he has took a personal shot at is Joe Tracini

PJ seems to dislike Stendan fans because they refused to accept Stug. Which must be hard for him having to try work in the Stendan shadow

I Havnt seen anything to suggest that the actors don't like each other although it is clear as day that they don't speak

Well Emmett said in the interview that 'Stug is like a biscuit going soggy in tea and f*cking ruining the tea' so I'm not surprised PJ hit back.

Joe is basically Emmett's best friend - he calls him a gobshite in jest. He loves him to bits.

PJ seems to take everything in a personal way. HO deliberately encouraged this rivalry between the fandoms. Emmett has always supported Stendan against Stug ( which is natural if he supports his character) and he has a real individual sense of humour. PJ seems to have had a sense of humour bypass! It was not intended as any kind of dig at the actor.

PJ is extremely sensitive to any perceived criticism of his character (now dead - yay!) on Hollyoaks. He seems to think that anyone who expresses a dislike of the character, or the storyline he was involved in, is attacking him personally.

He's the same on Twitter, searching out tweets mentioning 'Doug' or 'Stug' (ones not directed to him personally) and then acting all affronted and calling people 'haters' and trolls simply for not liking Doug/Stug. Most of the HOs actors are sensible enough to be able to tell the difference between dislike of their character, and personal abuse. PJ, unfortunately, doesn't have that ability.



eta: I think PJs tweet was unecessary, but at least this time he had the guts to name the person he's criticising, rather than his usual indirect and passive aggressive snidey tweets. Doesn't improve my opinion of him though.

It seems like Emmett has a British/Irish sence of humour where's PJ has a American personality (not shocking as he is lol) who don't really get out sence of humor. What Emmett said about Joe was just like banter between friends.

If you watch Big Brother with the Americans and English people or know any Americans you will know they don't really get our banter and take things far too seriously!

But none of us know what happens in their personal lives maybe they actually don't like each other.

I remember Emmett once claiming that he could count the amount of people at Lime Pictures he didn't get on with on one hand. I know Rob Norbury is one of them and clearly PJ Brennan another.

Rob Norbury played Riley Costello, Lennox in HITC and some other minor characters in Hollyoaks before his regular gig as Riley.

I'm guessing Rob found Emmett's popularity quite limiting, he didn't like that Emmett was becoming "the show" itself and I'm guessing he didn't like his exit being part of an ongoing Brendan storyline. I guess he found him quite big headed, but was quite vocal about it.

Rob's girlfriend Karen Hassan (who played Lynsey) still gets along with Claire Cooper (Jacqui) who is Emmett's girlfriend but I don't know if Karen and Emmett get on or not.

None of them come across smelling of roses by Emmett seems stuck up his own backside and thinking he's something special. Never liked Brendan and never liked him. Clearly thinks he is a lot better than he is. :sleep:

Emmett gave an interview at the beginning of the year in which he said that there were cast members who were 'marinating in their own self importance'. Rob responded on Twitter by saying "Marinating in self importance... Pot kettle black".

Emmett Scanlan seems to be the one igniting all this arguements, all pj and rob did was respond.

I think personally you can tell the way pj and Rob are, that they don't 'marinate in their own self importence' whereas Emmett does, he seems to think he is the B all and end all, he really isn't that great of an actor either imo.

I think his interview with DS just just made him sound like an idiot and full of himself taking personal shots at ex cast members.

Also Joe Tracini, tweeted this morning
'pot kettle' - maybe in response to his interview?

I have no doubt Emmett Scanlan is good actor his given some powerful performances, but blasting former cast members is tacky wherever he got on with them or not, his time on the show and performances was at times brilliant but its time as he said to move on.

Why would you stay in contact with people once you have left a workplace unless they become really close friends.

I worked with a group of people for 10 years left a year ago and never spoken to them since, they are just people I worked with not close friends.

That interview was arrogant and self important, Emmet comes across like he thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread when in reality he's a wet loaf of bread...
Good for PJ for pulling that up.
I preferred Stug to Stendan, Stendan and the overacting by Emmet ruined it. At least PJ's character was subtle and didn't have weird jerky body motions to get his point across.
