Emmerdale's over reliance on condomless sex [spoilers]
With the upcoming spoilers regarding Charity and possibly Moira / James, I can’t help but think to myself “oh here we go again”, the old plot cliché of sex without condoms being used yet again to generate “drama”
Consider how many kids in the soap have been “generated” already by this well-worn device. Leo Goskirk Angelica King Sarah Sugden Jacob Gallagher You can also include the recently departed Archie Brekle, Amy Wyatt & Kyle Wyatt amongst the condomless born fraternity. Add to that the storylines about Priya’s pregnancy, Gemma’s abortion, Moira’s miscarriage & Val’s HIV all derived from the villager’s innate inability to recognise what a condom is for or how to use one and it begins to cut a huge swathe across the plotlines of the soap. It’s become incredibly tedious, predictable and boring. Maybe the next storyline should be about an STD epidemic in the village – at least it would be believable! |

There's just too many pregnancy stories in soap full stop. It's the last resort of creatively bankrupt writers.

I agree in general, unwanted pregnancy stories are lazy, especially as theyre almost all a result of one night stands. Emmerdale must have the most fertile population in the nation!
![]() That said, the Priya story is interesting handled well, the Charity one could. It willl be an opportunity for Charity to reflect on things. She's going to have a difficult decision to make, It might be good for her to have a reason to pause for thought |
