Made in the largest studios of Britain, Emmerdale is a soap combining the daily lives of colourful characters of all varieties. Now called Emmerdale, the soap has shed its image of a boring drama set on a farm in the Yorkshire Dales. From the vindictive and orally vicious Viv in the shop to the friendly and funny Bernice in the Woolpack, Emmerdale's bar, you'll become addicted and transfixed on the superb acting and memorable storylines.
Emmerdale is a great show. I watch every episode and it never gets boring. There's always something new happening there. And yet it doesn't get unreal. They have every kind you can relate to. My favourites must be the Dingles. They are so funny. Otherwise I don't have any particular favourite. Anyway, the show really is worth watching every day, and I want people to know that!
As of 2022 this show is no longer watchable, it used to be essential viewing, the soap that managed to feel very different to EastEnders and Corrie, in recent times though it's started to make Hollyoaks look subtle. The storylines have gone beyond belief, and the characters are now almost comic book like, grotesque caricatures.
RIP Emmerdale, ten, to fifteen years ago, it was excellent, now though, it's one to skip. Only Corrie is now worth watching.
2022 2/10 <2010 8/10.

Emmerdale, shown by the UK viewing figures, is extremely popular, and rightly so. It perfectly creates the right atmosphere existing in country villages to this day (I should know). The highlight of it all is Samantha Giles, who plays the colourful and quite humorous Bernice Thomas, the landlady of the village's boozer, the Woolpack. Where you want humour, a scene springs up with the antics of the Dingle family. Where you want some drama, there are scenes on the Emmerdale Farm and in the nearby Home Farm: It gives a wide special spectrum, entertaining all in the process.
Don't miss it!

Emmerdale is a great soap i think. It all started in 1972, the gave it a name at first as they called it Emmerdale Farm, then suddenly they changed it to Emmerdale. I give Emmerdale 10 out of 10 because i just think that it is such a great soap.

- TriviaThe series' highest ever audience figure is 18 million, for Episode #1.1829 (1993) in which a plane crashed onto the village. The storyline also made an early soap crossover, when Channel 4's Brookside (1982) had newspaper headlines reporting on the disaster. (UK television supremo Phil Redmond worked on both shows.)
- GoofsWhen engaged to Luke McAllister, Tina Dingle tells him and his sister Jessica about her oldest brother Nathan's wedding. Nathan is never mentioned again, and Tina's father specifically references having three sons (and then four when he discovers his supposed nephew, Cain, is actually his son) - Ben, Francis (Butch) and Sam.
