Analysis of Emmerdale storylines

1 The Fire and big bad dirty Rakesh - New lady cop seems nice a fairly good at her job, bit young though, I presume all the older detectives we have seen on screen are all suspended for incompetance, never going to get her man though.

3) Nicola - came home to quickly form hospital and collapses which provoked Jimmy to produce some spectacularly bad dialogue that the writer should be ashamed of to their dying day/

4) Gabby and Jaycub - icky, icky storyline, appear to be about to get very close and according to IMDB the actress isn't even 15 until the end of july uck

7) Lawrence was all emotional until he met Andy took a hard line, is it all bluff?
.
1. All soap police are incompetent so I doubt they've been suspended. I do wonder what happened to detective super bitch who was investigating Robert's shooting. Maybe Robert has added her to his kill count

3. That scene was bad, but aren't most Nicola and Jimmy scenes bad? Here's hoping the more serious story line breathes new life into these two.

4. Well it depends on how they handle it, if the sex is implied instead of shown I think it will be ok.

7. I see why Lawrence liked Robert, they are one in the same. Andy better watch out if Lawrence thinks his secret will be exposed he might end up in a grave next to Katie.

I'm so over them and its clear the writers have run out of ideas for them. It might be time to split them up.

LOL maybe so, although there are a few other characters that need to be blown up before them. I think it'd be interesting if they tried to turn Jimmy into Tom King and have him try to rebuild the King empire.

Analysis and questions about last nights Episode

Firstly the episode was not nearly as bad as some were making out.

More questions than answers here.

The Big Questions first

3) Why did Rakesh spend so much time spray painting inside if he was just going to burn everything, why not spray paint round the back the berk

7) Why did no one in the shop notice a huge explosion going on right outside? why did no one else except Dull Dan and Ronnie not notice either?

8) How come when Carly was sweeping up outside she didn't notice a large house on fire right in front of her.

Al these questions and many more will probably never be answered.
3) Given the way he was splashing the white spirit about some of it must have landed on his clothes - why did nobody smell it when he returned to the shop. Anytime I use white spirit, I can smell it for days.

7/8) I thought that too. From what I understand most of the houses in the village are all fairly close. That was a huge explosion for nobody to hear it.

Analysis of Emmerdale Characters

1) Ronnie - an honest builder who knew there was such a thing, but shouldn't he still be in hosptial,he was in a coma the day before, has Rakesh's number right up.

2) Rakesh - might as well hand himself in too the police, he's a terrible at arson as he was a Lawyer and builder, you would think he would be better at covering his tracks

3) Jaycub and Gabby - icky icky storyline

4) Laurel - you silly cow your husband may be calling you by his exes name but leaving him alone with 2 yound ones is just stupid

5) Rodney dear get your haircut but avoid the Emmerdale Hair Dept at all costs

6) Jimmy the writing for him gets worse every episode and Jimmy Nicola broke in so was trespassing.

7) Nicola has brain damage how will anyone even notice

8) David - being sensible for once

9) Lawrence wants viagra is it for Bernice or Roonie and how soon before he has a heart attack again.

10) Emma seems good at her job but one day will we find out she is killing her patients?

Agreed. Laurel should have arranged cover before she went out.

Rodney looks like a right sap.

Lately, the Jimmy and Nicola crap has been just awful.

1. Jackson was an honest builder too and don't for get Jason on Corrie who I miss already.

2. Agreed, Rakesh needs enlist the services of the HBIC, she knows how to get away with arson.

3. Its not that bad, and its realistic, there are 14 year olds that have sex IRL.

4. If it leads to the return of Drunk Laurel I have no problem with it

7. LMAO you wrong for that

9. Viagra isn't going to help him get it up for Bernice. It doesn't change what he's attracted to.

1) Exceptions to the rule partly made up for Jasons Dad being totally corrupt and Jackson always getting what he wished

2) rakesh should have a word with Declan if he can find him.

3) Maybe but the actress playing Gabby isn't 15 until the end of july according to IMDB, talk about corrupting minors. If the actors playing them were older I might not mind as much but they aren't since Jacob actor is only just 14.

Isn't Jacob 13?

I repeat ICKY

I felt uncomfortable enough watching belle in scenes like this, let alone actual children.

1. Tony was not totally corrupt and Jackson didn't always get what he wished if he did he'd still be alive, him and Aaron would be married and Robert would have ended up bedding Finn instead.

2. Declan might have started teh fire but it was the HBIC who came up with the plan to frame Sam and Rachel.

3. Well its not like they are romanticizing their relationship so I think its ok. Now how old are Tom and Peri on Hollyaoks? Weren't they 13 or 14 when Peri got pregnant?

Thats surely my very point, should the soaps be exploiting and corrupting actors who are minors in this way?

Well its not like they are going to have them doing sex scenes, so I think its ok and the subject is realistic for kids their age.

Anyway spoilers exaggerated wildly about Gabby and Jacob

Amazingly last night Nicola remembered how to act and even Jimmy actor made a fair if futile attempt at proper acting.

Mini Synopsis of Episode

Nicola is in hospital shouting at everybody in sight and chatting to to the worlds most expressive non talking bed ridden extra
Nicola by sheer will power tried to get out of bed. and fell flat on her face alarming expressive extra
Nicola the actress remembered how to act this episode.
Even Jimmy actor made a fair if futile attempt at acting this episode but was sadly out acted by 6 year old Angle
The Spoilers lied and Jacob and Gabby didn't have sex but were interrupted by the increasingly unpleasant Loopy Lush.
Both kids were embarrassed by a council of family members called to discuss their sex lives
Ashley annoyed the Loopy Lush greatly and even gave Loopy Lush a glass of wine.
Loopy lush looked absolutely delighted
Creepy Pierce acted creepily
Pearl droned on and on about Paddy shut up Pearl
While Rhona tried to avoid thinking about things
Ronne didn't tell the police
and Rakesh's spiral of doom continued, how far down will he go.?

I thought Nicola was alright - except for the cringe worthy scenes of her doing sex positions in Rakesh's flat. I do not need to get any more insight into her and Jimmy's sex life.

Jimmy however was completely atrocious in all scenes - the scene where Nicola collapsed was especially dreadful. Looks like somebody forgot how to act.
