Emmerdale: Ridiculous
Related content from Digital Spy: Emmerdale: Diane confronts Chrissie with a gun and Lachlan admits he shot Lawrence http://metro.co.uk/2016/11/11/25-soa...omers-6249988/ So Diane is now going to be toting a gun - how more ridiculous can it get? |

Diane is my joint least favourite female character (Laurel is the other one). She's still annoyed because she wasn't told about everything sooner - she hates to be in the dark about anything, she's even more nosy than Brenda. I think it's funny the way she doesn't realise that her actions have repercussions! I cheered when she was carted off in that police car tonight

Diane with a gun?
See this is what happens when you let grannies play Call of Duty... Video games are such a bad influence on our elderly.

The scene where Diane was taken away by the police was abysmally acted by Elizabeth Estensen. I couldn't stop laughing.

. Diane's been acting like a 15 year old juvenile these past couple of episodes, I had to laugh at her throwing a brick through Home Farm in broad daylight and running away like some mischievous school girl lol. I get that she wants to clear Andy's name, but her attempts to do so have only made things worse for herself (and her family who will be homeless 'cause of her) and made her look like a right clown in the process. She should stick to pulling pints at the Woolpack and quit career crime while she's ahead, she's not cut out for it. Just saying... |

Seriously though, it seems like everybody in the village is committing some crime or another nowadays... I mean when did Diane turn into Clint Eastwood all of a sudden? Why would she use a gun? ![]() What's next? Brenda robbing a bank with a sawn-off shotgun?! Her and Bob could be Emmerdale's answer to Bonnie and Clyde.

I think those of us who regularly say that the older characters should get more sls should have been more careful what we wished for. It was just so ridiculously out of character I don't think poor Liz Estensen had a clue how to act it out. I can picture her in rehearsals, on take 346, saying "just remind me again, Iain - what exactly is my motivation in this scene"?

She was terrible last night, but then the whole Sugdens v Whites story is a load of total pants. I don't really get what's going on at ED at the moment - the Barton stuff is really good, and so is Ashley, and I've even enjoyed Priya/Rakesh, but there's another side of the show at the moment that is seriously crap, including turning Kerry into a desperate slapper, and all the Zak/Joanie stuff. Bleeeeeurgh. Rebecca has a lot of promise, but this is honestly bullcrap. |

All this fighting, knocking seven bells out of each other is just total pants and as for Kerry - Jai seems to have no control over his staff at all and I had to giggle at Rakesh in a hairnet! |

Any episodes that heavily feature either Diane or Victoria are difficult to watch and this week we've been inflicted with a lot from both of them........

Diane is one of my favourites but this storyline with the Whites is dreadful, especially as Chrissie and Lachlan are so awful to watch.

I've been saying for years that Diane is an unstable and violent monster, but did anyone listen? Now look what's happened. She's running rampage with a loaded weapon. You only have yourselves to blame for this.
Thanks. |

The character of Diane has always been the voice of reason in the village, so why have the writers now made her into the village idiot?

It was just so ridiculously out of character I don't think poor Liz Estensen had a clue how to act it out. I can picture her in rehearsals, on take 346, saying "just remind me again, Iain - what exactly is my motivation in this scene"?
