Robron Rewatch 2023

A community rewatchalong of robron, an hour a day [update: now half an hour per day], starting from when Danny Miller started as Aaron in 2008. This blog runner will be stopping at their second wedding. We'll be kicking off on April 8th, 2023.

On this blog, each day at 6am GMT I'll post a link to the start of the day's viewing and tell you where to stop for the [half] hour (you can watch it at any point throughout your day). In the evening, I'll post a summary of what happened, in case you don't have time, need to skip, just want to find particular bits or just want to read the summaries.

I have asks turned on, or tag #robronrewatch2023 to discuss the day's viewing! I won't be tagging all the posts as #robron, to avoid clogging up the tag, so make sure you follow this blog if you want to get all the updates!

We watched from 2016/04/15 p1 to 2016/05/02 p2.

Gordon is found guilty on all counts. Everyone is pleased, though Aaron confides in Robert that he thought things would feel more different. Robert tries to book him and Aaron a minibreak but it is interrupted by Liv coming to stay for a couple of weeks, which then becomes permanent.

We watched from 2016/04/12 p3 to 2016/04/14 p5.

Chas has a go at Gordon for bringing her personal history into this case. Aaron thanks Chas for sticking by him. Sandra and Liv turn up; Sandra's a bit ropey under questioning at first but pulls it back. Robert is calm and convincing, saying of Aaron, "He's the sort of person you want to be… and to be with."

Chas does her best but is a bit emotional under questioning and panics that she's ruined it for him. Liv wavers so they move to Gordon, who admits he hit Aaron but says that was all. Liv gets back on the stand and says that Aaron is a good person and Gordon is a liar.

We watched from 2016/04/06 p1 to 2016/04/12 p2.

Aaron invites Robert out for a drink but Robert is distracted by the Chrissie/Andy revelation so Aaron says he's staying home. Vic throws a pint over Robert to make him get over himself.

Andy insists Lawrence tell Chrissie and Bernice who got him beaten up and tells them himself when Lawrence doesn't. Lawrence has a heart attack. Aaron gets annoyed that Robert seems so interested in Chrissie and Andy's love life.

We watched from 2016/04/01 p2 to 2016/04/05 p3.

Bernice discovers Chrissie and Andy's affair and is so shifty about lying to Lawrence about it that Lawrence thinks she's having an affair with him, and gets him beaten up.

We watched from 2016/03/18 to 2016/04/01 p1.

Sandra gives the police her statement. Aaron, Robert and Liv spend some time together, but Liv is telling Gordon everything she sees. Jimmy and Nicola try to get Charity interested in joining the haulage firm but Robert takes the bait instead. He and Chrissie come to an agreement in their divorce.

We watched from 2016/03/16 p2 to 2016/03/17 p5.

Gordon pleads not guilty to all his charges, still pretending to be a falsely accused cancer patient. Aaron is understandably very upset by the idea of everyone thinking he's lying. Robert tries to comfort him (there's even a hug!). Inexplicably, Chrissie and Andy continue to be a thing.

We watched from 2016/03/02 p1 to 2016/03/16 p1.

Robron flirt over Vic's broken van. Ryan shows up wanting out and Aaron sees Robert talking him down. Aaron blames himself for Ryan (supposedly) getting hurt, making Chas confess that Robert paid him to lie. Aaron worries that Ryan will ruin the whole case, especially if the bribery comes out, and tells him to retract his statement. The police say they're charging Gordon anyway.

Charity blackmails Ross with her knowledge of him shooting Robert to get money for her buying half the pub. I think they imply that Andy and Chrissie have slept together.

We watched from 2016/02/25 p3 to 2016/03/01.

Robert tells Aaron "I still see you like that; I always will. [...] I'll wait for you. Until you're ready." They go back to Sandra's house and realise the girl who asked for money is Liv, Aaron's half sister. Aaron explains the situation to Sandra and asks for her help. She says she doesn't remember anything but Aaron is sure that she's lying. Cain advises Aaron to drop the case for his own sake. Aaron agrees but then the police say another victim has come forward so he decides to carry on.

Start here and for the best happy ending, watch until 2 mins into October 5th part 5.
