Trivia

Actress Amy Nuttall claimed in 2009 that she regretted doing sexy photo-shoots while she was in the series but had been encouraged to by the production team. She was quoted: "I was kind of told that if you do this you will get bigger and better storylines. They said that the more attention you got, the bigger the character would grow, therefore there would be more to do." See more »

Quotes

Eric Pollard: More chance of a stimulating conversation in a graveyard.
Louise Appleton: Must've heard you were coming, Eric.

User Reviews

The best and most watchable soap in television history
4 December 1999 | by mathewowenSee all my reviews

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.
