Hi,

A friend of mine said that Alice dies following the birth of her baby leaving the Dingle clan to bring up the child.

I just wondered if anyone actually knew for sure how this storyline pans out ?

I hope not, that's awful!

And plus it'll make something like the 7000th time I've cried at an E'dale episode this year.

That is terrible! I really hope that is not true.

I actually have taken a shine to Alice. - Steph

Im not a big Alice fan myself, I think Emmerdale has too many dim and lifeless characters so if true it would be an interesting storyline.

I gather we do know she has to choose between her own life and the life of her baby and the conundrum will be which she chooses.

I confess that I cry on occasions. My problem on this occasion would be that her death would be a bit self inflicted. Might still cry though

I am not an advocate of abortions on demand but if she were a relative of mine I would have wanted her to go down that route.

Yes, I agree. Though I think it would be less painful on all concerned if she chose her life over the baby's. She could always have another, that way, there'd be both her AND the child. This way... well, I just don't think it's the best choice.

About the crying issue, yes I just cry at anything LOL. I try to hide it and fail, naturally. I was a total wreck when Max died, puffy circles under my eyes, permanently smudged mascara for days, miserable, mood swings, the lot. How sad am I?

No she cant have another. The chemo makes you infertile, that will be in the plot. Thats why she has chosen not to have the treatment because will need to loose her unborn child and there is a high chance she wont be able to conceive again.

I do remember hearing a while ago that Alice may die, so this could be very possible.

So the sole purpose of bringing her back was to die? How ironic that she's ten times better than Sam, and a BILLION times better as an actor. I'd be happier if HE died and she survived (though Zak losing 3 sons is a bit much )

I don't want either of them to die, I've come to the conclusion I'm allergic to soap deaths, but I was hoping they'd both move back to Norfolk or wherever and carry on being dumb up there.

Not sad, just emotional.

Without treatement she will definitely not conceive again.

This is identical to a plot in Family Affairs at the moment, though the FA one is slightly better...at the moment (it is in full swing after all and has their best actress involved)...but because it's being axed we won't see it's conclusion.

Ideally Alice will come very close to death following the birth (for the sake of emotional drama ), but recover...or what if the baby actually dies during the birth? I don't know if cancer can affect that?

Either way, I'd like Alice to stay, as long as they made her a bit more intelligent. Especially if Emily doesn't return...

The first test of extra intelligence would be for her to dump Sam.

She isn't as thick as we think though and that will come out soon.
