I'm actually a really good dancer

- Well that was a big heap of nothing. I’m in the post England loss big sads so emmerdale can’t really hurt me. But it could have cheered me up but ofc it didn’t.

- As soon as the trailer thing happened so early on with 0 build up I knew it was going to barely be the A story. And robert doesn’t even get to have a concussion! Can he have a secret one - I mean he’s had enough knocks to the head this year (or his entire lifetime). I get that they want to hammer home how suspicious Aaron is of Serena and how it’s causing him and robert to be at odds but could we not have some warmth or genuine worry between them. Like Aaron rushed off from Chas all concerned but then was just annoyed the rest of the time. And if they’re going to play it like that fine - but at least give them long enough scenes to let them talk about why. They almost touched upon them in the 2 second alone conversation robron were allowed to have about them. But ofc that ended pretty quickly so we can *checks notes* ah yes see Kev give people the wrong coffee order in a hilarious way 🫩. Riveting stuff.

- My positives are I like Aaron and Chas having scenes and turning detective on Serena. Because I don’t trust a word she says at this point. I mean I don’t think she trailered robert but she went to the police station yesterday so clearly there’s more. And pls can we get some reconciliation conversations between robron after all this is out in the open - maybe explore some John issues?? No?? Okay then. I also like that Aaron is doing all this because he’s so protective of robert and their life but it wouldn’t kill them to show that ya know.

- I’m glad Mack is still getting to have aftermath and be annoyed that said I feel like him and Charity keep having the same conversation about him not kicking off at Ross which he then just continues to do. A short term break up is calling them. Perhaps when this is all out in the open (which will be never at this rate). Also Ross just keeps putting himself in situations like leave Mack alone at this point no??

- The Vanessa/Charity scenes were fine. Idm her knowing what dr todd did and I like that she didn’t even hesitate in knowing what was wrong with charity. My only thing is now lots of people know different parts of the secret - that’s a lot for poor charity to keep up with! We must be closing in on the reveal surely? The Vanessa/manpreet scene was a bit odd to me - her dropping ‘Tracy’s friend has been raped’ in the middle of the Hide - subtle Ness.

- Noah’s exit begins then. I know some speculated he’s going to murder todd I honestly don’t at this point. Idk i feel like it’s going to be quick and low key he basically already wants to leave. I mean the Amelia mentions just hammer home the last time he had a story was that long ago so fair enough.
