Classic Emmerdale

Mark Charnock bless 'im, he's had some right tear jerking stuff to do over the years and he's made me bloody cry so many times !!!!

When Butch died and Marlon visited him in the hospital, Mark was smiling and crying at the same time. It felt SO REAL and I sobbed and sobbed along with him, and now he's done it to me again.
When the doctor told him Tricia was brain dead and he cried......... :cry::cry::cry:

Sterling work Mark.
 
I agree it has does have the 'well scripted and acted storyline' every so often but the basic today to today (groundwork/ character development) is not the same. Poor Marlon losing Tricia but watching now feels very strange he ends up withDonna
 
the last few days the episodes have been amazing. Found myself crying at Trisha and just overall enjoying the whole thing. Modern emmerdale hasn’t a patch on it.
Yes the whole weeks episodes have been brilliant.
I have cried along with Emmerdale and now doing the same with Corrie.
I saw the originals but don't remember so much but looking forward to the canal scene. We went to the Portland Basin Museum and were told that it was filmed outside.
 
I'm sorry - Mark Charnock cannot act for tit, he is embarrassingly poor, absolutely no nuance or sublety.

Footage of Marlon crying

didn't know whether to laugh or cry at ghost tricia showing up at the pavilion to chat to marlon one last time, looking like hopkirk (deceased) in her white parka

but I was in bits by the end of the episode 😢

and the music was 👌🤌
 
The music gave Tricia a very poignant send off as she was wheeled away on her trolley into the bright and beckoning light of the eternal operating theatre for organ donation....and the credits rolled as the music continued...

I thought Mark Charnock put on a great performance...but I'm no judge of acting prowess. I did think Tricia's demise was dragged out a bit though. Maybe contractual demands on Sheree Murphy?

Tricia's funeral should be interesting....Mother of the Deceased Steph will be milking it no doubt.
 
An incredibly tragic week in the village, one of the best storylines and episode endings by far imo. Sheree and Marlon did a great job; it must be very difficult to lay so still for hours like that. The producers usually do these big disasters very well as you pretty much have free reign of what you can do. Tricia's death is a huge loss to the village and it's lovely that Marlon regularly mentions her. I often wonder whether a secret child of hers and Marlon's will return one day as she left both times long enough to give birth in secret.
