Then being a thing came as no surprise to me, bigger question is, is he Chriisie's father as well, so did he have Lawrence and his wife?
I don't think it came as a surprise to anyone but the scriptwriters! I'm beginning to think their scripting meetings are held reading the forum posts.

They can't do. Otherwise the next episode would be like this:

Aaron gets on a bus and leaves forever.

Yep - or gets run over by one (that way there's no way he'll be back...)

It has been obvious for ages, so were they just trying to put us off the scent with that scene where Ronnie said he turned up at the hospital as Larry's wife gave birth to Chrissie and trudged sadly away when he realised there was no place for him? As Larry's lover, (as opposed to the wife's), he'd hardly be likely to turn up at the hospital would he?
I was also confused by this, though I am pretty sure the last time that Ronnie and Lawrence spoke at Home Farm, Lawrence said something about them being best friends.
I'm thinking that Ronnie Hale may have been a friend of the family as opposed to just Lawrence's lover, could give him an excuse to show up at the hospital - though why he would walk away dejectedly afterwards is anyone's guess. To let Lawrence play happy families? So he didn't destroy the newborn's family?

There's been a load of misdirection going on. Have absolutely no clue why he would go to the hospital - maybe just a last-ditch attempt to get Lawrence to face up to his sexuality? Bit daft really.

Larry really has been living a massive lie. Aw, I want him to find proper love before the ole' ticker inevitably conks out.
I think despite everything, Lawrence has found love with Bernice. Sure it's unconventional and not at all sexual but from what I have seen on screen the two characters do love each other.

Finn would run away if Rob backed him into a corner.

My poor celibate sexless Finn. No one wants to romance his pants.
As well he should as an upstanding member of the community. I would run away too, Finn could do way better than Robert.

I think he's forgotten where it is, anyway.

Aw, it's a shame, he's a cute lad and all. GET HIM A MAN.
Yes do. Just this time, make it someone more good looking, since Finn is a handsome chap.

Then being a thing came as no surprise to me, bigger question is, is he Chriisie's father as well, so did he have Lawrence and his wife?
I don't believe so, I think the only reason Lawrence is allowing Chrissie to continue the search is because she's searching for a Ronnie Hale. A man he knows not to be the true father.
Ronnie also said that he could not stay in the closet as Lawrence has done, bearing that in mind it would not make sense within the context of his story for him to be bisexual. Though by all accounts, the Emmerdale writer's don't exactly set a precedent for stories making sense.

For sure, he loves her and they're sort of lovely together, in their own way. But it's not good for a man to be so in denial. He's told Bernice he's not gay, he's just not sexual. Whereas actually, he's gay but can't accept it.

If he came out and said to her, I'm gay and I've loved 2 men, and one of them is right here, I'm not sure she would still see the relationship the same. Having said that, in any world other than soap, Bernice wouldn't need Lawrence to tell her he's gay to know it.

So on a scale of 1-10 do we think how exciting tonights ep will be dominated by Lawrence and Ashley forgetting things

Writers being very mean to Ashley - Just for dramatic purposes?

I see what you mean, I think I misunderstood what you meant.

And yes, for sure, I'm sure Bernice would not feel the same way about their relationship if Lawrence was to tell her the truth.

Well I thought last night's episode was good, I gave it an 8 out of 10 - spoiled slightly by Tracy - so if it's a similar situation tonight it should be good.

What makes it weirder is that he could potentially be Rebecca's dad, if that's the case was he having sex with his wife then or using a turkey baster, if it's the latter and ey were clearly trying to convince why did she not stop having sex until after the birth. Also if it's the former and they were having sex why was she still going elswhere.

Well if Lawrence is in it, that's an automatic 6-7 minimum for me, I love him. Even when he's doing absolutely ridiculous plot-driven Gangsta bonkers stuff like getting Andy beaten up by goons. I gave last night's an 8 for the Billy Corkhill Was My Lover reveal.

Obviously if Doug's in it, it'll be a 9.

I guess all will be revealed in time.

He said he was Rebecca's biological Dad, so I guess we have to take that at face value. As he struggles to have sex with women, I'd guess turkey baster.

Did he say he was or that it was a possibility? I don't buy Ronnie as chrissies dad either, it would be a bit of a stretch for chrissie biological father, surrogate father and ex husband all to be gay. She's a magnet for gay folk, like a Yorkshire lady gaga.

Bwahahahahaha!

"What is it wi' me and gays?"

Can't actually remember if he said he definitely was Rebecca's dad - I'm not all that religious in my viewing these days. Someone more attentive might know.

He said the dates around Rebecca were less clear. So it's a possibility that he is Rebecca's father but not a certainty.

Which would imply he was having sex with her so why was she still havin sex elsewhere? And if it was the turkey baster why was she still having unprotected sex elswhere at the time of trying to convince with her husband, it doesn't make sense.

She might not have been having sex elsewhere though, but Lawrence could not know that seeing as he made that agreement with her.
