How many times has Rebecca left home farm now !??
She's in and out of that place more times of that place then a person more times that we can't keep up !! She hasn't really worked that well as a character as I'd have hoped 🙈😀😀 let's hope there's an improvement soon !!😀😀

Twice.
I've enjoyed her so far, I think she's great potential. However they really need to get her away from Robert. I think her and Robert have good chemistry but everyone knows they're never going to get together. Mcleod isn't going to risk the wrath of the Robron fans, the majority are already having breakdowns over a bit of flirting and one kiss. They need to get Rebecca interacting with the other villagers a bit more and possibly getting s new love interest. It could help to finally give the Whites some connections to the village. |

Seriously what is her motivation in all of this? ![]() An inexplicable burning hatred for her sister? (who up until she was betrayed by Andy and snapped was a decent person and that decent person is who Rebecca has known for most of her life ) Jealousy that Chrissie is Lawrence's favourite? Bitterness that Robert chose Chrissie all those years ago? An overwhelming desire to get in Robert's pants? (I mean I can buy he is good in bed but enough to inspire a 4 year obsession worth betraying your family for?) What is it? I have no idea If you can't make head nor tale of a characters behaviour, something has gone wrong either in the conception or the execution, or both. She is preaching about the being good honest people and doing the right thing while chasing after and conspiring with a man who paid a rent boy to accuse her dad of sexual assault and blackmailed his lover into robbing their home almost killing her dad in the process And if she hasn't been told all of this, why hasn't she? Chrissie and Lawrence know that she is friendly with Robert and working with him, why the hell wouldn't they enlighten her to his true nature? ![]() If you came home to find your sister significantly changed would you not wonder why they had changed? and be angry at the man that hurt them so much to bring about this change? Apparently not, apparently it just makes you want to have sex with the man that did it to them. Must be a turn on for her ![]() We keep repeating the same scenes over and over and nothing changes or moves forward. How many times have Chrissie and Rebecca had that conversation they had tonight? How many times has Lawrence thrown her out? It's like the story is stuck on a never ending rinse cycle (that is probably the most number of confused emojis I have ever used in a post and which tells you something about what a car wreck Rebecca and this storyline is) |

Agree with you Littlenothing
Emmerdale has become so driven by plots, its like they can't even see how ridiculous their characters are becoming ![]()

Do we know how long Emily Head is sticking around for? Is it a short stint? So little effort has gone into making Rebecca a realistic rounded character it's hard to believe the show are invested in her in any great way.
It really feels like they are just making it up as they go along. Being so fixated on Robert Sugden that she is willing to betray her entire family for him even though he has caused far more hurt to her family than anyone on this earth? What woman would really be this desperate for a man? I almost find it insulting ![]() They could have brought Rebecca in and built on the fact that she has seen some of the world and and made her a strong smart independent woman, a bit of a free spirit. Instead she is a needy mess and Robert is playing her like a fiddle. Has he got a hypnotic penis or something? It's bizarre

Two really good posts and I agree with almost everything you put, however I think she's needy and desperate with Robert because she is still in love with the facade he put up and not the reality.
Her family haven't been telling her anything that happened and are being fairly vile to her so she is probably feeling vulnerable and turning to someone she still has feelings for and he is using this to his advantage and playing her like a fiddle. He paid a rent boy to falsely accuse her dad of sexual assault, he staged an armed raid on their home, surely if she knew that she would realise that Robert is not just some knight in shinning armour on a crusade to save his brother from her devious sister? So why aren't they telling her? And tonight when she gave that, considering her own actions, frankly ridiculous speech about being "good decent people" and her sob story about "poor Andy on the run" why didn't Lawrence just turn round and tell her that Robert killed poor Andy's wife? Neither Lawrence or Chrissie are incriminated in Katie's death, there is nothing stopping them telling Rebecca, and yet inexplicably they don't? and they don't tell her that Andy had Robert shot and was willing to let Lawrence go to jail for it and so is not some poor innocent victim? again, why not? There is nothing stopping them telling her all of this and yet (again) they don't?There is no rhyme or reason to any of this, add to the that the story has been stuttering around since Rebecca arrived months ago going nowhere, it is one of the worst storylines Emmerdale has ever subjected me to

I also agree about the repetitive scenes. I'm noticing that a lot with Emmerdale these days. Instead of being invested in what was going on with the characters, I spent last night's Home Farm scenes thinking how inferior the current Home Farm set is compared to the one they used to have. It's a lot smaller and looks cheap and nasty.

She could go for good in my opinion. Dreadful character and droopy actress.

It's like the story is stuck on a never ending rinse cycle (that is probably the most number of confused emojis I have ever used in a post and which tells you something about what a car wreck Rebecca and this storyline is) Before she arrived, we were led to believe that Chrissie and Rebecca were close. Chrissie would always go running off to her little sister when she needed support so the idea that Rebecca actually hates her sister and wants to take her down really doesn't ring true unless we're given some kind of explanation for her change of heart. Lets get real here. They are sisters, and they have spent a decent amount of time together off screen so I don't believe for one minute that Chrissie wouldn't have sat Rebecca down and had a good old whinge about what a bastard he is, and he disgracefully he treated her, and her family. I don't get her motivation, and I can't bear the actress so the sooner she goes the better! |

I was really hoping she could turn Lawrence against Chrissie and Lacklustre so he would turf them out of home farm for good and they would leave.

She may not be best character ever but she is bringing out some things about the family that explain a lot of the problems they have. I liked Chrissie and her dad for ages couldn't see how Lachlan had gone so wrong but seeing Rebecca and how they treat her explains a lot. Never known such hateful characters as that pair, Lachlan never stood a chance to grow up as a well rounded human being with them as his parental guides.

And just how is Chrissie expected to treat a sister who gloats about "being given a good seeing to" by her fiancé in the toilets at her engagement party? Rebecca attitude on the revelation of her affair with Robert was disgusting! Not a hint of remorse or shame, Chrissie is expected to just play nice with her when she hasn't had so much as a sorry or an explanation? And she has the nerve to lecture Lawrence on decency? But that is all fine because Chrissie is the wicked witch of the west, the audience wants to see chased from town with pitchforks for framing a man who had his own brother shot for shooting someone (no poetic justice there at all) |

And Rebecca's beloved Robert hasn't contribued at all to the mess that Lachlan is? It's all Chrissie's fault? You don't think the lies, deceit and betrayal he subjected them all to for years made any impact on Lachlan?

And yes I blame his mother and grandmother for his problems. I never said I liked Rebecca just she is bringing a lot out in other characters. Not all characters in soaps have to be nice often they can just force others into situations. |

I'm neither here nor there about her but I do think she works well with Robert. Emmerdale would never do this, but she and Robert would make for a believable couple since they are both ultimately pretty heinous. At least they wouldn't be as dull as Robert and Aaron.

![]() The other reason they wouldn't work is that as you say they are both ultimately pretty heinous. Those kind of relationships, when it's a case of like meets like, get old fast. It's why Charity and Cain don't work and Moira and Cain do (same goes for Aaron and Robert) It's the differences, the contrast, the friction that makes tv pairings interesting. I don't want to see 2 abominable people being abominable together. I want to see one abominable person come up against someone who challenges that side of their character. But this is DS, Robert could stand next to a lamp post for 5 seconds and this place would compare them favourably to Aaron and Robert just to make a point, such is the lack of perspective and balance around here at times. |

Robert and a lamp post might make for an interesting couple.

I disliked her at first but I've warmed to her now. Best of a bad lot. Hate the Whites.
