rumour that
Michael Starke aka Sinbad
spotted on set

Not a rumour i've seen a video, I put it in tags just as its not announced yet.
The vid also had Louis Emerick so I think Donny will end up being Mick

Yeah, like clockwork!
But he does make me laugh (Terry's Dad)

Yes, guilt, he was always down on Damon.

I remember quite a sad storyline coming down the line for Sammy, I liked the Rogers

I've missed a few weeks as I could not stand Pat, so I'm looking forward to my weekly treat again

God Pat was truly awful, so glad when he left!
I've googled the Sammy storyline, yep I remember now, very sad.

Going back to Damon's funeral, very strange they couldn't get hold of Karen, and she didn't show up, surely they could have shown a pretend phone call to her if the actress couldn't make it?

Incredible how different things are from then to now. I can't believe a line that Marie just came out with about Kate... Same with Coronation Street.

Yes he did play Grayson in Classic Emmerdale. I recognised his voice before I recognised his face

I think the numbering of the episodes have been off for a few months. Also there was an extra episode added during Christmas week 1989 which might explain why STV didn’t notice they skipped an episode

I also recognised his voice first to, not his face with the floppy hair!!

Is it just me or is anyone finding it abit flat at the mo?
I didn't go much on Xmas episode and felt like an episode was missing after they found Barry in the freezer!!
I was never a fan of gangster Barry.
Am only really liking Max and snobby Pat!
And the new theme music 🤢

No, I never liked watching myself haha. I know channel 4 sold the rights awhile ago but wasnt sure which channel it was on now. If I tried putting it on my kids would probably be like what are you watching this for?!!

I don’t know if you have any daughters but did they look like you when you were that age?

Its a bit slow going. I never watched these early ones first time round so was mid 90s for me too.

Yeah I started watching in the mid 90s too funnily enough. That was my thinking that it was too slow going. I know it's maybe not a good idea to introduce too many characters at once but I think we are all used to a bit more action in soaps today. There might be a bit too much now there is a happy medium!
