Have the scriptwriters not heard? Life in small country villages is bloody boring for long stretches of time and generally, nice things happen - happy marriages, healthy children being born, farms carrying on without catastrophe - more often or at least as often, as nasty things. That's what I believe anyway #justcallmepollyanna

BaronessBL Apr 2019 7:19pm, 22 Apr 2019 7,641 posts	0 BaronessBL I really want to like Emma because of how she's helping Mia, but the whole encouraging Ed to take Tim's dodgy work just doesn't really sit very well in her character to me. Still, I suppose it will give another storyline for Harrison who hasn't really had a great deal to do while Freddie has been banged up.....
