Classic Emmerdale

[neroli]

Victoria's Finest Hour. She suits a general anaesthetic..

 

[Maid22]

I don't think she slept with Butch!

I'm a true dinosaur so apologies for the stupid questions...

I think it's a good job my daughter has a smartphone....I don't lol!!!! Looks like I'm going to have to hang on to the old set as well which has good old Sky+....I knew this would be disastrous and this was certainly not my decision!

Wasn’t a stupid question at all, I didn’t know you couldn’t record on it either until I got it. They didn’t tell me that at the point of sale!

She’s iconic her clothes are amazing still looks good I think. She was on the Distinct Nostalgia Podcast and she is such a lovely lady. I won’t go into what she said as it would be spoiler and don’t know how to do the hide spoiler but so different to her character

Just downloaded it, thanks for the suggestion, looking forward to listening

 

[Chita]

Good find, I sorta remembered part of it was about her hair, I found that quite odd at the time!

Yeh, ruthless.

 

[Maid22]

I'm glad Marlon paid the builders!
Didn't Emily look pretty in her wedding dress, pity Paddy didn't stay with her!
Tricia's mother is really awful.

I may be wrong but I think when the writers decided to make the new Robert gay they also decided to rewrite Jack as homophibic and said he'd hit Robert years ago because of that.

I may have misremembered the reason for Jack's alleged violence though.

Wasn’t it something like Jack caught Robert in bed with a male farmhand which was why he hit him (that was the story Robert told to someone a few years later from where we are in Classic when he became gay as it supposedly had happened years before)

 

[kachoochoo]

didn't know whether to laugh or cry at ghost tricia showing up at the pavilion to chat to marlon one last time, looking like hopkirk (deceased) in her white parka

but I was in bits by the end of the episode

and the music was 🤌

 

[neroli]

Does anyone think that Shelley looks like Nicola Sturgeon..or is it just me?

 

[Maid22]

Nicola just uses her dad for money, but tbh, he has always spoilt her.
Oh Chris has headaches, I remember this!!

 

[neroli]

Great to have a Debbie-free day today!

 

[holly1727373!3]

I stopped watching normal Emmerdale when Robert left.

I catch the odd episode every now and then and classic beats it by a mile.

 

[C1O2]

There's loads of little good bits. Just fast forward anything with Katie in it.
Nothing of interest with her involved. Whiny little cheat.

Thanks I’ll leave it on in the background as I am pottering around. She is annoying I have to agree and a cheat which is worse

 

[Maid22]

FGS, just tell Nicola!!!!

 

[Maid22]

The start of Zoe's schizophrenia
Rodney gave in too easily with Nicola, she turned into such a bitch!

 

[Maid22]

Good episodes, I don't remember the fire and Jimmy being stabbed and stitched up by the vet!
Those watching today's Emmerdale, gosh I feel old, Samson isn't born yet and we know he's leaving in the main one ( won't say anymore, I know some folks are watching Classic for first time!)

 

[grace28]

I also didn't realise how long this story has left to run, it's got at least another 6 months.

 

[Doingitforthegramhuntake2]

Spotted this afternoon, Sheree Murphy's huge baby bump. No attempt to hide it. Camera zoomed right in.
Made me laff.

I thought the same when I watched it, not even trying to hide it

 

[Doingitforthegramhuntake2]

What's with Laurel's accent? She's full blown Southerner now but back then had a (albeit bad) Yorkshire twang?
I noticed this with Donna Windsor, who lost her London accent and turned Yorkshire, but can kind of understand that.

Her voice was so whiney and high pitched, glad she didn’t keep it like that!

 

[grace28]

Hour long episode today, can't really remember, but is it charity and Zoe storyline?

Yes it’s the start of their affair. I think this then leads into Zoe’s mental illness.

This party is so cringe, I don’t remember the 2002 feeling this dated.
