Emmerdale/eastenders Tonight

[elliemay1]

What did you think? I'm exhausted by all the shouting etc!

[pips1]

I AGREE haha I said to my daughter I don't know why I still watch them.

[elliemay1]

They were totally over the top tonight. And now Roy is throwing tantrums in Corrie!

[cupotee]

I had to turn it right down...I was sick to the back teeth listening to the arguments and wailing going on with both programs this evening.

I am planning on not watching the next few weeks til it settles down again, it is way over the top in my opinion.

[elliemay1]

Yes, it's not my cupotee at the minute either.

How right you are Ellie - that is why when I finished my tea/dinner I retreated to here (this site) these soaps are beyond the imagination (well mine anyway) - have you ever noticed - what happens in one soap - they copy it another soap.

Drunk - the little girl in Emmerdale
Drunk - the girl in Eastenders - has liver disease

Violence in one soap - screaming and yelling in another - cant watch it anymore. (Must watch some of it (yawn) come on here for a bit of craic.

[elliemay1]

I hate when they wreck the place and throw things over. It's easy for them as they don't have to clear it up afterwards.

[Connemmara]

Agree Ellie - you have to pick up the pieces:)

You have to admire the acting. Youngsters suffering affects of alcohol is becoming a huge problem. These programmes are a warning for them.

[pips1]

yes maybe you are right index but I long for the relaxing (easy watching to unwind) soaps we used to have. I absolutely dread to think of the effect these soaps have on the young in terms of relationship issues, etc, no-one is ever happy and they drift from one to the other as if feelings just don't matter!

[ummmm]

Do youngsters actually watch these programmes? Mine don't.

[islasmum]

I only watch EE out of the soaps, but Lauren's high pitched shrieking is beginning to annoy - hope she gets carted off to rehab soon.

[pusskin]

Lauren takes the part of an alcoholic really well. Good actress.

[elliemay1]

Yes, the girl who plays Laura is a great actress, very believable.

i though the scene in Debbies house with her and charity screaming at each other was one of the best acting scenes in a soap ive ever seen, excellent worthy of a soap award for that ,
