Well Emmerdale fans! This week
(28/05/2012 – 01/06/2012) on the Dales we've seen Grandad beater,
vicar Ashley Thomas' life take a dramatic downfall. Not only has he
been turfed out of his former father-in-law, Rodney's house but after
securing a secret job in a burger bar he was fired for stealing, in
the presence of his estranged wife Laurel.

| Troubled vicar Ashley Thomas |
A lot of Emmerdale fans are split on
whether to feel sorry for Ashley's character or feeling he's getting
his comeuppance for his atrocious bullying behaviour towards his
father, Sandy. I must say although I have a little teeny bit of
sympathy for the vicar, the turn in his life is brilliant for the
'moralistic' character and great viewing for audiences. The whole
community that once looked up to him have now turned against him.
His daughter is so terrified of him she won't see him and worse of
all... the reason for Ashley's personality transplant was triggered
by the closeness between Laurel and pub chef Marlon. Now it looks as
though their friendship is being rekindled and Ashley is having to
watch it blossom unable to do anything.
It'll be interesting to see where
writers take this storyline and how much more Ashley will suffer but
I'm enjoying it immensely.
