ellie...because in soaps, no regard is paid to distances (or time-scales). For example, this hospital that half the cast seem to spend their lives in (as patients or visitors)...just how far is it from Emmerdale village? I imagined that it must be a big general hospital (because it has departments for everything), so presumably it's in a major town or city....but characters pop in and out (and pop back again) as if it's two minutes away.
Are we taking this all too seriously, I wonder?
Notice how it also turns instantly from daylight to nighttime? The kids were in the car in daylight, walked away from it in a field and the next thing Daz was there then he was driving in pitch dark.

Makes me wonder when anyone in Emmerdale takes a flight they use Doncaster robin hood airport.when Leeds is a dot away.(guess it could be because it's cheaper to film there )
