A NEW CHAPTER FOR THE SUGDEN FAMILY AS ROBERT BECOMES THE NEW TENANT FARMER

-
Tonight's episode (Wednesday 11th March) saw a Sugden back at the helm of Emmerdale Farm, following today's announcement that Robert Sugden became the new tenant farmer at 'Emmerdale Farm' alongside his fiancé, Aaron Dingle returning the legendary Sugden name to the land for the first time in years. Part of me is really excited for this change, however I'm kinda nervous, but am ready for a new era!

In tonight's episode, Moira Dingle signed over the farm to the Tates, Joe Tate swiftly moved to appoint Robert to run the operation, also seeing Aaron tell Cain that he chooses Robert when asked to choose between his uncle and fiancé saying "I'll stick with him" much to Cain's shock.

Driven by a desire to honour his family legacy and following in the footsteps of his father, Jack Sugden, one of the original farmers in the area, Robert is determined to restore the farm to its former glory. Their first action is to proudly reinstate the dug-up old farm sign, renaming the land from Butler's Farm to Emmerdale Farm. I'm interested to see the direction that the show is going in with these changes. Having Robert at the heart is a really interesting move that honours the shows past.

Talking about the shake-up, Producer Laura Shaw said “The Sugdens have always been at the centre of our village, having been the original farming family when Emmerdale was first created. This return to the farm’s roots is a powerful moment, echoing the early drama that unfolded when Annie Sugden and her sons, Jack and Joe, farmed the land. Taking over the tenancy, grandson Robert wants to do his best and make his dad proud. With his loyal partner Aaron, they are ready for this new chapter and committed to making the farm thrive. Farming remains a vital presence in Emmerdale, providing a daily dose of excitement and fresh air for our audience.”

Meanwhile, Cain Dingle is decisively looking for new land for him and his wife, Moira determined that she too can continue her career as a farmer. With two farms soon flourishing in the village - Emmerdale Farm and the new Dingle Farm - it's a legacy that Annie Sugden would be proud of.

Emmerdale airs Monday - Friday at 8pm on ITV1, and YouTube, and ITVX from 7am.

EASTENDERS REVIEW: A ROLLERCOASTER OF A WEEK FOR LAUREN AND PETER AS BEX RETURNED

-
This week's episodes of EastEnders saw Peter Beale propose to his pregnant girlfriend, Lauren Branning who declined, however for me I personally think this is a great choice but the week continued to take the pair on an emotional rollercoaster. The fact that the week's episodes started with Peter Beale missing the baby scan, you could see Lauren Branning was in for an emotional week and honestly if any character needs support its Lauren! With Peter continuing to focus on his mum, Cindy Beale instead of Lauren really frustrated me. As much as I like Peter and Lauren as a couple in the show, I have to say Lauren choosing to turn down his proposal in Tuesday's episode (1st April) after everything that happened previously with Cindy Beale over Christmas with Lauren thinking that she was the one that injured her, and Peter doubting his girlfriend, where is the trust? One thing however, I did like was the attention to detail and remembering certain moments made the scenes interes...

The past few weeks have seen Emmerdale's beloved character Aaron Dingle go through a lot at the hands of John Sugden but there has been one character that has tried to save him and that is his ex-husband, Robert Sugden who let's be honest would do anything to save his true love. Viewers have been through a rollercoaster of emotions from Aaron falling of the gorge, Aaron being in hospital, and admitting the truth about John and his actions to Robert being arrested, but then being released as well as being desperate to know that his ex-husband, Aaron was safe and well finally leading to Aaron being released from hospital. Photo Credit: ITV/ Emmerdale During last Thursday's hour-long episode (18th September), Aaron finally admitted it was John who caused Aaron to fall over the gorge as well as admitting to knowing where Mackenzie Boyd was. However, when Robert was released during last Friday's episode, (19th September) following Mackenzie giving his account of what John di...
