ED- DNA sock
Watching last nights episode got me thinking about the awful "James is Adams dad" storyline. IMO, Adam is infact Johns son, and the sock that James took off for DNA was Ross'. You know, because they shared the same house, and therefore the same washing basket, how on earth could you possibly tell which is which?
Anyway, what do other people think? Could this be brought up again in the show? |

I didn't realise he had the DNA that way!! Conjuring images of crusty socks now.

James being Adam's Dad served no purpose whatsoever besides making Moira look bad until now that James is dead and it's serving up some contempt between Ross and Adam. What better way to resolve all that with a "the DNA result was correct but the sock belonged to one of his actual sons" type of story? Unlikely, but I've wished for it since it happened. At least in the more recent DNA test Rebecca had the good sense to use a hair and the result took at least a week and not the next day. |

Making Adam James's son was one of the most dumb f*ck moves of any soap ever.
It totally ruined the legacy of John and Moira all for a temporary shock value story line than more or less went on to have no bearing at all. When John and Moira first arrived they were so, so solid, happy and in love and nothing could come between them. When John kissed Eve (Edna's granddaughter) Moira went ballistic and totally laid down the law with John which considering the secret Moira was supposedly sitting on it was more than a little hypocritical. |

And a shame that everyone readily believed James's test and that Adam did not demand his own (as I would have in that situation) |

The DNA test can differentiate between parents and siblings so if it had been Ross's sock it wouldn't have come back as certain of James being Adams father
Sorry to burst your dream, I knew watching Jeremy Kyle on my rare days off would be useful one day ![]() How would the test differentiate between Adam and Ross if it was only testing the sock and James' DNA? |

I'm sure that's only if James secured DNA from all of his boys and supplied them along with Adam's sock? No?
