Although I watch Emmerdale regularly I seem to have a missed a huge event whereby Declan remade all his money. There was a long drawn out story where he was so skint that his sister was shoring up the biz and he was on the brink of losing eveything and now he's so wealthy that he can afford to 'lose' £20k to Charity's skanky thieving mits. What did I miss?

Hmm, I think we all missed that ep lil.

I'm sure the only thing we were told was that the insurers eventually, (and against all odds), paid out. But of course he then presumably had to pay for the rebuild with that money.

It's one of those soap mysteries which will never be solved.

It was all sleight of wig... Declan kept us all distracted with a variety of wiggy fun so that we wouldn't notice the various glaring holes in the various quite badly written stories that comprise the adventure of Campy McWigwearer

Yes I was hoping that he would get found out about the fire. He set the fire and got away with it.

I couldn't fathom that either. BTW can't stand Mr Williams, far too full of himself.

Lol, it was a random 'I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams' clip with no explanation - so just like Declan in other words.

Charity and Declan have treated poor Megan like utter s***e, Declan nearly killed her in the fire - this has now been forgotten; Charity covered up the aforementioned and then blamed Megan for her miscarriage which was actually a termination I so hope Megan will get the chance to burn the heart out of those two tossers

OP, I think you missed the episode where Declan sets up an online ordering store for James Bond inspired hair pieces

He has several in the range:

The Sean Connery - sourced from only the finest Scottish hair, dyed brown and aged in specially commissioned cans of Tennents Lager for 80 days before being carefully weaved into a piece of tartan cloth. You might eventually get bored of this wig and claim that you will never use it again, but you eventually will.

The George Lazenby – a one use only wig, designed to underperform and then be thrown away after use. Made from specially sourced Kangroo fur and indifferently woven into a dead wombat. Specially perfumed with Fosters lager for the undiscerning gent, currently being sported by Moyra

The Roger Moore – From the Macy Fine Reserve, made from the finest quality hair sourced from council house tenants all across England for the man who has remarkable taste. Dyed brown, the wig is able to be worn in a zero gravity environment, while deep sea diving and fighting super villains. Tenderly aged in specially selected Carlsberg Special Brew this wig encompasses everything English and is a credit to the finest James Bond Ever. You can wear this wig for years and years long after it is looking too old to perform the job properly, but it will still allow you to pull the young ladies.

The Timothy Dalton – the ladies’ man wig brash and uncompromising made from the wool of Wales’s finest sheep. Nursed in aged caskets of Stella Artois this multi-use wig will allow you to make one great appearance and then a bloody awful one before you decide to never use it again.

The Pierce Brosnan – The wig if the 90’s very popular with men from the former Soviet Union and scientifically proven to be able to resist lava. Made from the finest Irish traveller hair and aged in Guinness, this stylish wig will promise a great deal out of the box and then phone it in over the next few years of wear.

The Daniel Craig – A contemporary design that will have you punching people in the face every day. The wig is made from old barber’s hair that was shoved into a pit for many years without anyone taking notice of it, before being re-discovered and utilised for this once in a lifetime product. The wig, carefully rinsed in Old Speckled Hen contains powerful resurrection technology that will allow you to survive being shot and falling 100 feet into a river. A very useful feature if you live in Emmerdale.

I agree. When Dicklan had no one and nothing, it was only Megan who stood by him. Where was skanky Charity then?

Now they are both playing the big I am, it reminds me of Catherine Zeta Jones when she told a court "a million pounds isn't that much money to us" If you aint got it, it is a bl**dy lot of money!

Finn also made him some money on the stockmarket but he seemed to be splashing the cash before then. I guess we are meant to forget that he almost lost everything

Don't you start Dessy! I already spend most of my life hunting down and killing Huck Hound, JustaBloke (and one or 50 others)!

Just to clarify, for the benefit of any random lurkers, HRD does NOT wear a wig of any description EVER!

which considering the number of people that believe he does means that at the very least he should sack his hair dresser....

I think we're just meant to believe that because the Insurance paid out and Home Farm is now operational again, they are back in the money. Which is ridiculous as the financial problems started before the fire with the cancellation of the Festival and them finding Alex on the Glamping site and the Bank wasn't prepared to finance any more ideas for making it a business and had foreclosed.

Yep, I think also that we all missed that episode.
He was totally broke and it is no good saying the insurance paid out as I am sure there was a problem with that.
Our soaps need to get a grip of things.
Juswt what is he supposed to be running at Home Farm that is making him all this money?
As far as I can see he only has Sam working there!

Well yes, but hang on there just a doggone minute kitkat! You're forgetting the amazing 'Home Farm Relaunch' t'other week! I counted at least 3 stalls, including Leyla & Megan's. Obviously that had the desired and expected result and now HRD has regained his rightful position as FilthyRichFeudalLordOfTheManor, and quite right too.
