Did a runner? you mean how she helped Ashley get up, have him refuse help and walk away,? anyway that was Ashley's Dementia storyline beginning rather than about her.
That may be so but it helped explain to me why she never gets her own storylines.

Love the character though, when she's not being annoying and defending Robert over Andy, that is. Her and Finn both suffer from background character syndrome. It would be nice for her to get a good story albeit one that isn't emotionally demanding.

Most of which she was great in.
Well we will have to agree to disagree on that one. I will say this she has been ok as Adam's supportive wife. Not to many women take kindly to their husband bringing home a break baby.

Interestingly she's been in Emmerdale before, twice in fact.

I thought the same about Zoe Henry to be honest but she was an actress beforehand and look how good she is. Joanne Mitchell is also an actress already.

That's his wife? Christ, he's done well. I actually just picture him and the actor who plays Marlon going home together with their twin beds like Father Ted.

Haha, that would be actually hilarious.

I may have the wrong Joanne Mitchell of course.

He must be really lovely in real and not at all a sleaze. or gay with Marlon!

That's why Finn and Victoria never share scenes any more. She's doing background for Adam/Vanessa and he's doing background for Emma/Ross. It's like they inhabit different shooting schedules or something. I mean, universes.

Or one double bed, like Morecambe and Wise.

I know, I miss them being firends. Now he has Tracy leading him astray. At least he is always hilarious and cute.

They literally never speak to each other any more. Would have been great for her to be involved in the Carly Tracy Nikhil Leyla David friendhip thing they had going for one special episode.

Holly coming back could be quite interesting even if it gives Moira something better to do. Her and Cain have become a bit boring.

It sounds like he will do it alone

I agree and you know Moira will find out and she will probably break up with Cain because of it.

I am uncomfortable with it but not surprised. Social issue storylines always end up the sensationalist route.

It would have saved the whole thing for me if they
