Should Emmerdale Be Screened After The Watershed?

[anotheoldgit]

We are seeing more than normal homosexual carrying ons both male and female, and even a touch of bondage (handcuffs on the bed post) the other night.

[dannyk13]

And the reason for that would be?

[bednobs]

how do you know what "normal" homosexual carryings-on are the AOG??

[bednobs]

ps to answer the question, i don't think it should be after the watershed - i think it should be taken off completely. Soaps are crap

[aelmpvw]

aog has probably inadvertently boosted the viewing figures

[Sqad]

Different times, now AOG.......different values different attitudes.

Homosexuality?.......can't understand it, i have difficulty in accepting it, but hey! it is now standard practice.

Now a bit of bondage,as long as it is heterosexual is fine with me.
Watershed?. lo lol...anything goes now , even the kids at school are taught about same sex sex, so I really don't think that it matters.

P.S I don't watch soaps.

Think ill come down there, tie you up and make you watch Emmerdale Sqad !

I thought that scene where Phil stripped off and lay on the bed was stomach-turning!

And just imagine what must go on inside youngsters heads when they see such things.

"Is he tired and going to bed, and why does he need those policeman's handcuffs?" :0)

Oh for the innocent days of Emmerdale Farm.

[Mamyalynne]

I'll be honest, I haven't watched Emmerdale for a very long time but if I were a fan I may save it till after the children had gone to bed, for peace and quiet if anything.

Just curious - does anyone know a child that likes this programme?

[MargoTester]

My thoughts exactly Mamya - was just about to post the same thing.

//homosexual carrying ons //
What are they? Do you mean like hetrosexual couples they kiss and cuddle occassionaly have sex and basically show they love each other?
Then no it should not be on after the watershed!
The only way to get rid of hatred is to show that there is nothing wrong in what they are doing!

/// Just curious - does anyone know a child that likes this programme? ///

More to the point, is there any parent who would allow their child to view this programme?

[whiskeryron]

Have you noticed AOG, most regular programmes have gone up the Swannee since we've had "Gayism" thrust upon us ?

It's got nothing at all to do with hatred, but at a young age of a child, their yet fully formed brain has enough to take in, without confusing their young minds regarding the adult practice of variations of sex.

Nothing wrong with them witnessing a cuddle, because in a loving family, that they can understand as a show of love.

[DarceyK123]

I don't think it's as simple as children actually sitting down to watch it but if like in my Sons house, the TV is always on in the background, they get to see bits of it.

In some way that's worse cos if they are not really following the story they don't know if they are a loving couple or a scumbag like that Phil.

[elliemay1]

Islay, the scene I referred to @ 12.03, had nothing to do with love. It was about a sleazy bloke trying to blackmail Tracey into having sex with him.

[Islay]

Sorry but as usual your questions highlight anything that you think as ‘not normal’ as wrong.

Children should learn that there is nothing to be ashamed of!

More to the point I think you will find most parents would have children of an age that this could ‘cause offence to’ tucked up in bed!

Take a chill pill

I don't know who that was aimed at, but why are you so rude to anyone who happens to have a different view to yourself?

No one on this thread as far as I can see has been rude to you.
