ED: Why is Aaron still so awful? Ever heard of character development?
He's just so mean to everyone. Surely after all these years he would have developed a bit of compassion. It's a wonder he became so popular in the first place when he acts to rudely.

He's a tough nut to crack. He still seems to have a chip on his shoulder. Having said that I wouldn't expect him to be sweetness and light, he's quite dark by nature. That's just how he is.
I'm just watching it right now and he's given Finn the brush off really rudely at the garage. Finn is quite growing on me he's nice, and he was quite bold to go up to Aaron and make the first move. On some level I've always thought Aaron was pining for Adam but watching Finn, I think Aaron could do alright with him IF they ever get together and maybe he could bring a nicer side to him out? Finn's a bit more cultured and if the writers don't mangle the script it would be quite nice to see. He needs a positive influence in his life that takes him out of his little grim world. We'll see if it makes a difference. |

He hasn't changed at all since his first stint.
You would think after all he'd been through it would have some kind of effect on him. |

Because that's who he is.
I would rather he didn't come back at all. His acting can be quite woeful at times. And danny millers awkwardness as playing a gay character is quite laughable, he's no Brendan Brady! |

Horrible character, just like some of his family.

I missed his first stint, as I didn't watch ED then, but I took an instant dislike to him in his return episode and it doesn't look like I'll be changing my feelings any time soon!

We were told when he was coming back they said he had grown up, he's just like he was before I really don't see any change in him at all.

He has always been a miserable git. That is his whole character. Quite a lot of the young male characters are the same on the show.
I actually think they have retconned his character in his approach to other gay characters. The 'old' Aaron would never have had a one night stand with someone. |

I dunno I like the spikey way Danny Miller plays Aaron. It's actually representative of that quota of almost still semi-closeted guys whose gayness doesn't sit easily with them. Not everyone is comfortable in their own skin or can deal with society's reactions toward them.
I don't mind Aaron's dour darkness, why should gay men be all intellectual nerds or happy jazz hands types? At least Emmerdale has addressed that people from all walks of life and personalities can be gay. And if Miller was so uncomfortable in the role would he really have come back? I've seen him in other roles and to my eyes his grittiness is just a part of his personality. I admit I did kind of smile as they had a big grimey punchup in the 'dale garage yard over a boy. It was gold.

Thought most folk on DS were dead against personality transplants??
Aaron is never going to be a good guy with a smile for everyone - accept that. and considering he's had quite a lot of trouble from Ross since he came back it's no wonder he's still angry.... What is Aaron expected to do when someone has a go? Smile at them and give them a lecture over thier temper? No. Aaron will fight back. Growing up does not mean you can no longer be grumpy. |

Kate's Oates has said she isn't putting them together, they just don't go together. I don't like Finn at all but he needs a man and that isn't Aaron. Also to pair Finn up with Aaron would ruin Finn.
I dunno these days in soaps you can never trust the writers not to ruin most any relationship with cheating or drama eventually anyway so...

He's still a revolting toad. Poor Finn. I hope he had a good scrub after their "joining".

Maybe the reason he came back because he was hardly getting any work I mean he went from a lead role on ED to do Panto/Lightfields and the other show on BBC which nobody could hear. He was alright on S&B but I would be surprised if he left to go back to ED.
So Emmerdale can't be all that bad imo. |

Bit of a shame for me. They'd be interesting and perhaps a challenge for each other.

He's well and truly been trumped in the bad boy stakes since Ross arrived. Ross has charm and complexity. Aaron is just rude.
