you understand that @pandora positioned herself in a hypothetical situation in lieu of aaron and that's what i'm answering to when i said "who cares.... etc.." sorry for the confusion but it's not personal attack,, if you read the posts again

BIB: Twisted and dysfunctional - yes. Compelling love story - no.

Thanks for apologizing for the confusion, if there is any.

But seriously, it's a silly soap story, like they all are - if we can't talk about it without being polite to each other, there's no hope for us.

That's very true. I've probably been guilty of being a bit snappish in the past, for which I apologise to some people for.

Bitching about other users in a thread where they can't defend themselves though... that's not cool.

Not worth it, is it? Honestly, I swear I have nothing more to say about THAT storyline (except make it stop).

Ah. Is that happening? No, not cool.

Jeff Hordley probably did it quite well I think' s Danny' s fairly decent as an actor but Aaron these days makes me want to rip my own eyes out. He' s a boring, self pitying l character in an abusive relationship. Contrast him with Belle who's got similar problems but still tries to do things and deal with her problems. Belle gets a lot of criticism on here but she' s a much nicer character than Aaron. Watching Aaron is the visual equivalent of reading Angela' s Ashes or ' A Boy Named It' on a loop, except these people didn' t enjoy suffering. There are other ways if showing that Aaron ihas emotional problems without constant suffering. The most messed up of us still have fun from time to time.

Why are the villagers suddenly acting so stupid for the sake of storylines? First they were all guns blazing for Chrissie, reacting like she'd killed them on purpose and couldn't see it was an accident, and now their suddenly dismissing Andy, not believing anything he says and believing Robert who they know is a devious, manipulative snake of the highest order. All because the story calls for it despite it making no sense whatsoever and making normally rational logical characters like Diane look completely stupid. Has KO given up caring or trying know she knows she's off to Corrie?

Will we have to wait ANOTHER 7 months for the truth that Robert DID kill Katie to come out?

Well Andy did seem to acting totally irrationally to anyone who hadn't watched the ep where Robert confessed to him. Given his previously behaviour people were almost bound to doubt him.

I'm more interested in the Dull Sloth Dan behaviour, last week when Chrissie changed her plea he was all for going to home farm with torches and pitchforks and lynch her, this he week they walked past each other in the café and Dan didn't even seem to notice her at all, guess it wasn't in the script heh, in fact nobody so much as mentioned Chrissie recent problems, that's where KO is letting us all down not with Andy I would say.

And Kwynne calling him Aarsewipe isnt being condescending to his fans?
Not saying it is wrong or right but I can see both sides. I have done it myself with DRoss .[/quote]

I'm being Condescending to Aaron not his fans, I have absolutely no problem with his fans why would I since i'm not stupid and can tell the difference.

Not me I fully respect the opinions of other people, I may scoff at those opinions but I full accept that they have a right to them

I do serious hate this merging names like Robron though urgghh

I must have missed the bit where Robert arrived in Emmerdale from Krypton. He has survived the most horrendous beatings, and now a bullet through the chest, and we all know he will be up and about soon, terrorising the village. Hotten General really is a centre of excellence.

Mini Synopsis of Ep

Robert was shot
Everyone was acting suspiciously
End of Ep.....

Sorry not quite
Andy went missing after nobody nelived him about Robert
Chas, Aaron, Paddy, Andy Laclan and Lawrence all wanted to kill him and the gun went missing from Home farm while Chriisie was also missing
Paddy and Marlon went a picking up women and Moron had a thing with a woman
But April was scared of Zombies so didn't get a leg over so he shouted at Carly instead.
Paddy met a red head then behaved very mysteriously, almost as if he had shot Robert then then so did everybody else.
After failing to find Andy Diane and Vic took up the role of this episode melodramatic family members at the bedside of Seriously ill Patient
Ashley had a phone call and went missing and missed his own stupid party which never happened anyway because of Robert
Chas was shocked and Aaron cried a lot as usual

Ways To Kill Aaron No.2
Aaron cries so much that he drowns in a flood of his own making.

Why are we watching identical stories on Emmerdale and Coronation Street - the mystery of Robert's murder/would be murder, and Callums murder?

So who does everyone think shot JR......errr I mean Robert?

My money is on Ross, he is the only person besides the Whites that could have possibly known the code the safe at Home Farm. Now I'm not exactly sure why he did it, maybe Cain paid him to and told him he'd back off and let him be with Resting Bitch Face and I also think he will frame Pete for it as his prints were on the gun and Ross said he had other ways of getting back at Pete besides killing him.

I reckon - and hope! - it was Lachlan. He has the strongest motive, and I really want him gone for good lol!

Several peoples finger prints on the gun including Ross's so it maybe hard to prove who did it. I can never understand how anyone can handle a gun without gloves.

Lachlan threw something into the undergrowth just before Lawrence stopped the car, was it big enough to be the gun?

Could've been I suppose. I don't think it's Ross as he doesn't really have any beef with Robert that I know of. Chrissie is too obvious, as is Andy. I reckon it's either Lachlan or Lawrence.

I still think that its Aaron; although, his Mum was there as well and I did doubt whether the character would shoot Robert in front of her. .. Although if he was already positioned , etc. . He could have been , mentally, past the point of no return..

I have a feeling that if it was Aaron who shot Robert, the writers will have done so in order to somehow make it payback amends for how Roberts been towards Aaron. That way, the scriptwriters have a path back to bringing Aaron back under Roberts spell ( and not true love, etc. It's far from that, as Robert is a high-functioning pyschopath with no empathy ) as Aaron hasn't stopped loving Robert and , although a strong thug, Aaron isn't mentally strong- and Robert enjoys the mental hold/power he can have over him. ( cue scriptwriters going down the path of aaron self-harming, etc again ).

So; that said- if it was Aaron; it wouldn't suprise me if Aaron ends up closer, and regretting what he's done to Robert in hospital etc

Really interesting BUT would Aaron really have shot Robert when his Mum was literally right in front of Robert? Bit risky to put it mildly!

I know. .....

It's the bit I'm unsure about in all of it.

I think I've sussed why Charley Webb has a deadpan expression most of the time - she's as fed up of saying the same thing over & over again as we are listening to her saying it.



I love you and I want to be with you.

I don't want to be with you any more, it was just one night.


Oh give it a rest.
Give the woman some new lines to say. Not the same old ones but with a different character each time.

Gun operator -
Paddy was walking towards the village wasn't he when Marlon le Taxi stopped to talk to him. So it probably wasn't him. Unless he'd already been to the village????

Ross might have wanted to shoot Robert for naming him in the Home Farm 'raid' but how would Ross know where the gun ended up after he lobbed it into the river? He wouldn't know, so it probably wasn't him.

Can't be Chas - but she knew about the gun and had chance to get it from Chrissie while she was talking to her. So she could have taken it and put it somewhere where someone else could find it. Aaron and Andy could have got hold of it. So it could be either of them........

or it could have been Chrissie herself, or Lachlan or Laurence.

Oh what fun guessing.

She has a deadpan expression all of the time because she is always sucking a lemon!
