Emmerdale Overhaul ?
I know there are rumours of a disaster coming in Emmerdale. Do people think they cast needs an overhaul and some new faces?. I belive it does. Axe the likes.of Jai, Rachel, Sam, Pete, James, Pearl, etc bring in a few new faces.

Yes, and those are exactly the people who need to go. Can see Kirin or Vanessa being killed off in the Summer possibly

Unfortunately, Chris Bisson (Jai) has just signed a new contract, so it seems we're stuck with him for the foreseeable.

Emmerdale has some surplus cast members, many of which mentioned in the OP but it is no way in need of an overhaul. I find it the most watchable soap at the moment, it's incredibly consistent.
In my opinion, it's Coronation Street which needs a SERIOUS overhaul. |

He is becoming very unlikable
I find the Internet, especially facebook and digital spy are full of people who like to moan. If you are not happy, don't watch it. The only character I would get rid of is Rachel, but I can tolerate her for now because Jai is being horrible to her. It serves her right for running off with his kid. |

I like Jai. He, along with Robert, are my favourite characters.

Just think it needs freshening up a bit. Robert is great. Emmerdale has been consistent for a while

Kirin is awful I agree . New era of Emmerdale is needed
![]() I agree with the poster who said that Robert is the best character. At the moment Robert is consistently interesting to watch and unpredictable, I was always calling for his return before it happened |

Kate Oates has zero sense of humour, she probably doesn't even have a funny bone in her elbow. All the new faces that Kate Oates dragged in can go and take Robert and Ross with them. I'd keep John Bowe, but that's about all. The females she's brought in, with the exception of Katherine Dow Blyton, are horrendous |

No new faces needed. There are plenty underused 'old' faces - undo the character changes is all that's needed. Bring the real Emmerdale back.

The females she's brought in, with the exception of Katherine Dow Blyton, are horrendous I'm not sure there's too much point thinking about an overhaul until this big summer disaster thing is a bit clearer. It's obvious several characters are already going, and that's on top of losing Katie, Betty, Alicia, Val, and Ali (if she's gone for good). So yes, they will really need some new faces to replace them, and new stories. The only ones I think are complete failures at the moment are Tracy and Kirin, so I hope they'll get cleared out, but other than that, happy to wait and see. |

Oo, I totally disagree with this. Sometimes the humour is too broad and it makes me cringe (like that terrible stuff with Finn binning off Darren). But Val, Kerry and Bernice have me in stitches. Even Andy made me laugh the other night. ANDY!!! Some of the writers are really witty.

Emmerdale has been a lot more humurous with Kate Oates in charge and has improved exponentially since the departure of Stuart Blackburn. It still has its problems, such as the multiple affair storylines and the subsequent love stories coming from nowhere but it still remains an entertaining piece of television. I agree with getting rid of Tracy but Kirin can stay. He's cute and improving when he is not trying to act like a "lad"

The cast, for me, is too unstable right now. It's far from being stale considering all the incomings and outgoings; I can't keep up! I prefer a strong, solid cast with the odd fresh face/axing, but over the past 12 months alone we've had:
Charity and Nicola leave (short term). We've lost (or are losing) Katie, Declan, Alicia, Betty, Rachel, Val, Sean, Dom and Robbie. We've had seven new characters join - Emma, Tracy, Lawrence, Chrissie, Lachlan, Kirin and Rakesh. We've also seen the return of Aaron, Robert and Carly, whilst we've also seen the return and death of Donna. They also introduced Harriet, Finn, James and Pete in 2013 and haven't done much with them at all. Quite a few characters are underused recently, such as Victoria, Rodney, Pearl, Rhona, Paddy, Edna, Bob, Sandy... Maybe if we stopped seeing the same faces dominate, it wouldn't feel quite so stale to some viewers. |

I agree, I'm thinking this summer disaster may not get rid of too many characters as has been speculated. Probably just one or two with a couple of injuries.

MUCH less than pre those two. And there are NO community events any more.
Now, the show is a complete ensemble with many more characters getting the chance to shine, or not in the case of Victoria. ![]() What community events would you like to see? Things like the football match and the fete last summer? |

I don't think it needs an overhaul.
I think they should of not made Finn gay as he and victoria work so well together. I am enjoying no charity, the character really did need a break. the only new ones I don't like are tracy and nu robert. tho tracy is better with jimmy and and bernice than she ever was with the dingles. think we will need one or two new characters to cover the losses. I want to see marlon and laurel back together when Alicia leaves David and Carly could make an interesting partnership oh and just read that
Spoiler

Everything else I agree with, though it would kill me to see David with anyone other than Alicia.

The B&B is also ideal for some storylines with the people that would pass through it. We never see much farming esp.Moira's business, although we see you her farm outside it looks a bit dirty to be a food producer. |
