Dan wants to be a paramedic so he's going to take 2 years doing GCSE's, 2 years doing A Levels and 3 years doing a degree, by which 7 years will have passed and Dan will have some other shiny object to distract him, my former moron of a brother in law was like that spent years becomg a nurse then inexplicably decided to become a Plumber, now he's a builder since he failed as a plumber.
No, either Dan would do an Access course which takes a year full time or two years part time and three years at uni, or he would skip the Access bit altogether and just enroll as a mature student at uni.

At least your ex brother-in-law succeeded as a builder, presumably.

Not as bad as Simon Beelzebub Barlow from CS and Gabby, imagine the outcome of that I think even Mother Nature would step in to ensure that particular seed didn't flower
LOL they'd be the couple from hell. Simon would have Gabby beating Bernice and Ashley

Analysis Central's Attempt to find something interesting to say about last nights episode and the chances of succeeding.

1) Boring Storyline number 1 - Well if you can call it that BoringBob And Geriatric Ged meeting in Prison, didn't understand what they were discussing most of the time so incredibly boring.

2) Romance between Hapless harriet and Boring Bob say it isn't so.

3) Ashley forgets things, well so does Kwynne but it doesn't mean he has a tumour or brain damage or something.

4) Boring Bland Beige Brenda is Boring Beige and Bland. almost unique is rubbishness

5) Eric is bad tempered for the umpteenthy episode in a row, we get it your upset about Val, heaven knows why.

6) Alicia wnat to leave and go to Portugal and and David does, what an exciting Storyline this is almost as exciting a spending 2 months watching a tomato grow and ripen, almost but not quite

Everything else was to boring to talk about.

Well Moses is a happy communicative baby, see I managed to say something interesting after all

Its a miracle.

were the Writers as well as all the good actors on holiday this week as well.

Old mother Hubbard will be running the throw the shoe at Barney Prattt Stall again, there will be Llama burgers and Brandy wine at Eric the Dancers food Stall.

entertainment be Lam Smith the Sam Smith Soundalike and The emmerdale Spinners who are the most exciting band to hit the Dales this year.

Other than that its been a quiet week in Emmerdale.

4. I'm all for the Bob/Harriet paring. I think they will make a good couple and give Bob more of a spark.....something he's lost being paired with the horrible selfish Wendy.

Also they are really making Alicia looks bad, by having her put her own wants ahead of David caring for his grieving father. They should have Lachlan harassing her making her life a living hell, therefore justifying her wanting to go back to Portugal.

Good idea this - having Alicia and Lisa discuss their suffering and how they feel.

Talking to yourself Chita? You know what that's the first sign of.....

Alicia's exit was hard to believe no matter how many tears were shed. I'll miss her too - she ended up being one of the nicest characters in the Dales. Remember how bolshy and unpleasant she was at the beginning? Never thought I'd get to like her.

This ending to David and Alicia's relationship has really annoyed me. It just seems so unlikely, given all they've been through. Why not live somewhere that isn't Emmerdale village OR Portugal like, say, Leeds... then David can pop back without Alicia feeling she's trapped there.

A ridiculous end to a brilliant character and couple. I do hope she'll come back.

Analysis Central's review of the latestt episode

A difficult one this as it featured some brilliant acting but also reached the lowest of Lows acting wise

The Bad acting and stupid Storylines

1) David reache whole new levels of bad acting this episode in a strange baby whiny screechy voice that scares cats and at a level that hurts the ears

the Reasons David seemed to give for not going to Portugal
A) He bloody well never wanted to go in the first place so is stamping his feet like a big baby and won't go ever, no not at all

B) eric is grieving well Alicia you could stay for a while and then could come or visit often but that still not good enough for this numpty

Of course all this could be got round by them moving somewhere else out of the village but close enough for David to return. On the other hand Alicia has friends accomodation and a job wating for her in Portugal

2) The Other terrible acting this episode came from Jai, hilariously trying to portray someone high on drugs well Sorry Jai actor you failed Miserably and are a total laughing stock and would be rejected by the local Am Dram Society

The Mediocre
In otherwords Adam he even takes the shine off poor neglected Victoria, Curse you Kate Oates

The Excellent

1) Natalie Anderson is a sad loss to the show and was absolutely brilliant this episode she will be sadly missed, how she was so good when faced with the block of Wood that is David is amazing

2) Vanessa was also very good this episode

3) I suppose Cheryl theDog livened the hole sucking Eric Stroyline


Thing that needs to Change
Axe David as soon as possible
Boot Jai out of the Factory.

I agree with pretty much everything you posted. Alicia's exit made zero sense. If she was that afraid of reliving her sexual assault moving isn't the answer, she needs counseling and like you said it made no sense that she had to leave right at that moment, she could have at least waited a month or two before heading back.

That stuff with Jai seems like its a rip off of Carla on Corrie, the factory owner has a meltdown and puts the business in jeopardy and I assume Nikhillwill play the role of Aiden Connor, coming in to save the factory from its self destructive owner.

press pack!! get ready for robron as aaron finds seriously wounded robert

yeah, dan is there too (in a wig) as he's training to be a paramedic

PRESS PACK:
As Victoria continues to quiz Robert about his relationship with Aaron, he maintains
that he is not gay. She immediately tells Andy that she needs to call Aaron - but when Andy recognises Aaron’s mobile number, the penny drops. Andy accuses Robert of Katie’s murder and a fight ensues. Robert is arrested and in the interview room he is
interrogated about his relationship with both Katie and Andy, but he manages to turn the situation around and walks free. Later he and Aaron have a confrontation – and he is left stung when Aaron calls him a pathetic greedy coward. Robert is making enemies everywhere. He first plots to turn Andy’s distress to his advantage, then he tells Lawrence that he was the one who set up the rent boy. Chas warns Robert darkly that it is time he left the village – only for Robert to be shot and taken to hospital where he flatlines and is rushed into surgery. Robert fights for his life as the villagers begin to suspect each other.

The picture is Aaron & Dan (sporting a wig) finding Robert.

I love Kirin!

He was great with Vanessa - they love each other awwwwww!

And when he punched that horrible Jai, I loved him even more!!

Well done Kirin.



And Vanessa made me feel so sorry for her when Kirin did the classy thing and left her with Adam.
She looked so alone when she was surrounded by them all, and especially alone when they stood by the incubator. She needed Kirin there with her.

Adam is so stupid.
And so annoying.

.....and I am still absolutely furious he wasn't killed off in the disaster episode.

Looks like it.





I think Natalie Anderson was very natural.
She went a bit dull with David but that's because David has become dull.

I enjoyed a performance by the Emmerdale Spinners a couple of years ago, Kwynne; at the "Pig in the Poke" International music venue above Hotton's cattle market on Abattoir Road. They sang all their hits, and I purchased two of their L.P's " Sings the International Hits" and "Stop! And think about me" from the stall in Reception.
Unfortunately, 1/2 way through side one of " Sings the International Hits", my record player blew up and caught fire, taking the curtains and my de-luxe 26" Pye with it.

It's weird. I wasn't that keen on Kirin and 'Nessa but I really want them together with their baby now. I'm not sure when I changed my mind. I suspect Adumb has something to do with it.

someone posted on Twitter - get that babby's brain examined. If he has a brain then he can't be Adam's babby.




Kirin was introduced as a spoilt little Prince.
He's been allowed to grow on us.

I've always like Kirin and Rakesh - because they made Priya more likeable.
I'm mad at Rakesh for what he's done, but I understand why he's done it.

So I still like him.
And I'm hoping he will be the one to get rid of Jai.

Adam seemed to think the entire thing was just a minor hiccup Evidently no one's explained that babies are meant to be in there for nine months and it's a worry if they pop out too early. You'd think being a farmer he might have a clue
