Oh, for fuck's sake
We've endured some unlikely soap storylines over the years to account for the pregnancies and maternity leave of female cast members (with the notable exception of EastEnders, when Cindy Beale was simply equipped with a Great Big Bag for four months).
But the one that's coming up in Emmerdale to explain the absence of Sheree Murphy, alias Tricia Dingle, for six months takes the cake.
A Bollywood film crew is set to descend on the village, and Tricia gets a part as an extra. But – calamity! – the leading lady falls ill and an urgent replacement is required. The director decides Tricia fits the bill, and offers her job. But there's one condition – she has to move to India for six months to film the rest of the scenes.
Will she feel guilty about leaving Marlon behind while she goes off on another extremely unlikely jaunt? Not likely.
Anyway, to recap: oh, for fuck's sake.
