Is she Straight or is she Gay?
Or is she Bi-sexual?

I can still see the chemistry between her and Rhona but she is still quick to jump into bed with guys (2 so far, but not yet at the same time!).

it would appear she'll be whatever the writers need her to be... last night was beyond ridiculous...

A) She was barely tipsey
B) She has never shown the slightest interest in Adumb
C) she was awaiting the results of a scan... yeah sex would be on her mind.

I really don't understand how Ed can be so good one moment then such utter shite the next.

She likes to be a homewrecker, whatever she is.

I would say she was bi-curious. Had feelings for one woman. Not women in general. Rhona didn't feel the same way, and those feelings were put to bed. But i would say she is straight as of now. I thought it was interesting they did that, because it does happen.

BiB : another spurious, stupid made up word. What's wrong with the word 'curious'?

Anyway, as JaB says - waste of time trying to label or understand any character in ED when they change their sexuality and personality at the drop of a pair of pants to suit the latest contrived and ridiculous sl.

I think you have ED confused with HO?! We only have Robert in ED who is vaguely confused by his sexuality.

Vanessa isn't confused about her sexuality, nor does she swap and change her sexual preference at the drop of a hat. It was made pretty clear that Vanessa was 'in love' with Rhona due to the bond they had developed during the drug storyline. It was excellently executed and was revisited later to establish that was the case. She specifically said that it was a one off, and she had no interest in other women.

That said, I do find it VERY odd that she is paired with such unsuitable men. Kirin was a really odd choice, but to then stick her with Adam is laugh out loud stupid.

It's probably because Vanessa is a bit of a sh*t character thus any drama surrounding her will be crap, they don't seem to care about her so why should I?

Exactly. She seems to exist purely to provide sls for other characters without us ever being given any insight whatsoever as to who she actually is.

Meh, don't care any more.

I like her when she's with her mates, having a laugh and giving them advice. I think that is when Vanessa is at her best. She needs a bit of a re-write and some direction. Her and Kirin were a complete waste of space.

I'm deffo not confusing anything with HO because I don't watch it.

I did greatly enjoy ED until the recent spate of ever more outlandish and implausible sls relating to sexuality.

We were only told Vanessa's 'love' for Rhona was a one off after the sl had served its purpose and considering she supposedly 'fell in luurve' with Rhona, she got over it pretty damn quickly.

The NuBiRobert stuff is also plot-driven and another desperate attempt to give TinyTearsAaron a sl. We're supposed to believe that a serial womaniser with never an inkling of being anything other than hetero, suddenly conveniently decided he was 'bi' while he was off screen for a few years. And so far all we've seen is that he fancies the pants of Aaron and luurves Chrissie's money. Which makes him gay in my book. They are only now trying to convince us he's bi because they think BiRobert might be slightly less implausible than GayRobert.

And let's not forget Ali and Ruby - so happily in lesbian love that Ali leaps back into bed with her ex husband, Deadly Dull Dan - again for another 'dramatic' sl.

Imo, ED are taking us for fools and I for one don't like it.

So Oldnjaded is your downer on Emmerdale in general or just Vanessa, I know once you hate a character they are black marked forever.

ED in general at the moment, kwynne. Too many silly implausible sls, mostly relating to sex, designed to appeal to the lowest common denominator of viewers.

I have no antipathy towards Nessa at all - I just don't care about her because of the terrible sls and pathetic writing she's been given.

Well at least you have The Joyof Pat and Justabloke's company at sitting at the back of the roon throwing peatnuts at the heads of the people watching the screen and sniggering at the silliness of it all, always better to be in a gang.

Only if you watch all the ads and spend your hard-earned money buying the products.
If not, you're of no importance at all to ITV.

Vanessa is just a dirty woman, who has sex with anything that moves. The Emmerdale milkman has to deliver in the night to escape her attention and I understand the postman has refused to deliver to her address. Have you noticed how Marlon's dog makes a hasty retreat when he sees her coming?
