I hate how EE think it's okay to allow a rapist to wonder the square. I love most things you do DTC but this is not acceptable.

I don't like the Dean stuff, but things like that do happen, Rolf Harris has been walking the streets for over 40 years or something.

It's no worse than all the murderers wondering about the place though.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Soaps should not be held ransom to the old ideals of portraying crime and justice.

I actually enjoyed the fact that Carl King killed his father in Emmerdale and wasn't punished for his crime. It's realistic!

Dean is a disgusting human being for what be did to Linda and yes in an ideal world he would be punished, but given the lack of evidence it's very true to life that he would still be walking the streets.

I don't think it is actually as bad as it is being made out to be, at all. There have been a few dud episodes and things happening that I'm not keen on but overall, I don't think it is terrible.

Sometimes it can get a little over dramatic on here. It is just a TV show afterall, if it's not 5 star all the time, it doesn't affect our daily lives or anything.

They have an absolute corker of a story waiting in the wings and they are dragging it out. The 4 month wait is long enough now. Bring Back Kathy properly.

There was no evidence though, it happens in real life as well, we all know Dean did rape Linda, Dean will get his in the end, you just have to have patience, which some people on here dont seem to have.

I guess him being killed was a sort of justice in the end, it not even about getting justice now, I just think everyone so over this plot, it's been shite mostly and most just want to move on from it.

the view that Dean needs to go is not one many are gonna let go of, fictional or not no one want to see a rapist getting off scot free when it fictional makes it even more annoying for some as DTC has the power to make it happen, but like others have said it's not always the case in real life, rapist do not get punished, that is life.

But this plot needs to have some resolution soon.

You never know, we might be in for some good episodes. Best not to judge before it's been watched

I've taken a break from watching but I always check the spoilers. As soon as I read something is coming up that actually sounds interesting I'll check back in. Could mean I'll be waiting til Autumn though.

Kind of agree with this. There's so many things I'd change about the show right now though. It just feels stale and some of the storylines are a bit ridiculous.

I don't understand. I think it's still pretty good at the moment. People are very difficult to please. Maybe you are just bored of soaps in general?

The only thing I don't really like is this Buster/Carol material. Not another affair, please. Gee.

Nope EE is the only soap I watch now and I really love it and normally defend it to the hilt but I found all 4 of last weeks episodes tedious, boring, and completely obvious not what I have come to expect from DTC

Emmerdale is definitely unmissable at the moment, and Corrie looks like it might be improving, but then again I'm loving EE at the moment too!
