Anecdotes:

A Right Load Of Manure

The accepted myth is that from 1972-89, 'Emmerdale Farm' consisted entirely of Annie Sugden brewing tea in the kitchen while Matt and Joe ate doorstep sandwiches and discussed the best way to fix a broken tractor. Even I.T.V.-1 allowed the myth to fester in their 'Emmerdale Family Album' programmes.

But it was never like that. Had it been so, it would have gotten cancelled - and rightly so.

User 'mathewowen' describes 'Emmerdale Farm' as 'having shed its image as a boring drama'. It never had one. I think he has confused 'boring' with 'believable'.

From 1972-89, 'Emmerdale Farm' was a natural, true-to-life series with interesting characters ( 'Amos Brierly' and 'Mr.Wilkes' spring to mind ) and it didn't insult the intelligence of its audience. Then something dreadful happened. 'Brookside' maestro Phil Redmond was brought in to fix something that wasn't broken. Like a film of a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis played in reverse, 'Emmerdale Farm' was reborn as...wait for it...'EMMERDALE'!

In one of the most tasteless soap story lines of all time, a plane crashed on the village of Beckendale, mirroring the real-life Lockerbie disaster of the previous year. More than just a few minor characters died. So did the show's spirit, its soul, its individuality. These days, 'Emmerdale' rivals 'Eastenders' for sheer stupidity, with shouting in lieu of acting, and formulaic plots about adultery, adultery, and, oh yes, adultery. Don't get me started on the Dingles! There're like something out of 'Viz'! The ridiculous title sequence sets the tone for the show, featuring an over-orchestrated arrangement of Tony Hatch's theme, and pictures of people not in the actual programme, as 'Harry Hill's T.V. Burp' cynically pointed out.

I've recently submitted a script to the 'Emmerdale' production office. It begins with a nuclear explosion in 'The Woolpack' and the radiation it unleashes causes the beer in the pumps to mutate into a sentient life form. Think they'll use it?
