Emmerdale again

[hestia8]

I'm having some terrible trouble with internet updatey things this week.

Anyway! Emmerdale happened. Rhona can fuck right off (and has terrible taste in rebound relationships), Dr Bailey has suddenly jumped to the top of my list to become THE WORST THE WORST THE WOOOOOOORST, Lachlan is still a shit and a creep, Emma is still awful, Charity is

DR BAILEY IS THE WORST.

Yep. Although Robert's little foray into child abuse didn't exactly thrill me. Rhona almost took the cake though. She only thinks people have no right to judge her until it's clear they aren't listening. Then she's chasing them around trying to make them listen to her again. Arsehole.

I think I might take back everything I've ever said about anyone else being awful or hating any other characters.

Yes, although I was quite surprised at Noah's lack of motivation for sending the texts too - I was expecting at least something like wanting the bigger room or whatever. I can only imagine Robert did that instead of telling anyone else to trigger another fight in the future (by which I mean next week).

Rhona is a fricking nightmare and she treats the people around her SO BADLY.

Idk, I feel like Robert just likes being in control of things and ruling people through fear. Although maybe he just didn't want Liv to know she was living with someone who would do that to her with very little reason. Even so, trying to get in with a child by terrorising a much younger child doesn't score him any points with me. Also it's basically the same as he does with every other character - trying to kill Aaron when he was being inconvenient, gaslighting Chrissie so she couldn't leave him, etc - so it just seems like more of the same Robert. I swear, he reminds me so much of my sister and all her abusive bullshit (as I see now, looking back). Sometimes he does or says things and my heart pounds like she's in the room

I think he does sometimes and then forgets about it for a bit (tbf I think this is more a writing inconsistency than an intentional character thing). I'm not sure he was really trying to get in with Liv so much as thinking he had solved the problem (as he has done quite a lot recently). It's just the same over again. Robert makes a decision, IS WRONG, everyone else finds out and tells him he is terrible, Robert fails to learn from this

agreed on all this! but I love Cain!!

[hestia8]

I have been loving Cain and then he managed to turn being completely in the right with Holly to being SO VERY WRONG.

However he redeemed himself a bit with Belle, and I look forward to the point where he finds out they are really having an affair and just murders Dr Bailey or something.
