There's one spoiler that confirms Robert turns Rebecca down. Perhaps she will then start working to split Robert and Aaron up. Sounds like Robert and Aaron might accidentally kill Lachlan. Probably not, but the spoilers raise the possibility. Hmm... At least things are going to start actually happening. This Rebecca character seems to have popped in out of thin air. Was there ever mention before that Chrissy had a sister?

Yeah, and wasn't that how Alicia ended up being one of Chrissie's bridesmaids, because Rebecca couldn't make it to the wedding for some reason?

When the Whites arrived in Town, was it ever mentioned how long Robert and Chrissie had been together for? Sounds like Robert and Rebecca had an affair years ago, but when the Whites arrived I got the feeling Robert and Chrissie had not been together for very long. How much younger is Rebecca? She looks younger to me.
From what I've read, Rebecca finds out very early on that Robert and Aaron are a couple. Maybe it was Robert who broke the affair off, and she never stopped loving him? And that's why she tries it on with him again even though she knows he has a boyfriend now?
When Rebecca kisses Roobert after he tells her he's not interessted, I wonder how long it will take for him to tell Aaron what happend? I bet he don't hide it anyway. Aaron means the world to him now.
Just image what a huge difference this last year has been in Robert's Life.

So Rebecca kisses Robert and the spoiler made it sound like he liked it too. Are they really going down this road? I may be wearing rose-tinted specs here but I'm thinking that far from this being a story of Robert returning to his bad old ways, this kiss will turn out to be an epiphany for him. He's being coaxed with everything he has previously ever wanted - the status, the house, the money, the fancy lifestyle, and (presumably) a future trophy wife in Rebecca, yet I think he will actually realise once and for all just what and who he truly wants in his future and that is Aaron, even with all the baggage that he comes with. Yes, we may see Robert momentarily tempted before rejecting Rebecca, but to me that will only make it a more tangible and significant decision on his part. After all, if he isn't tempted at least a bit then he isn't really making that big, significant and honest choice about his life. He's being offered everything he's ever wanted but will walk away from it. To me that will prove how much he truly loves Aaron. Having said that I do still see Rebecca continuing to pursue him in the future... It is a soap after all!

I think all this with Rebecca is Robert having to face some of his past life, having to face the truth who he really is - and face the sexuality he always has been so scared of to admit to in front of everyone. Choosing Aaron won't really be an option for him. He already knows how important Aaron is in his Life, and he has already choosed Aaron over Everything he had. To leave the "old" lifestyle aka Home Farm and whatever comes with that.. to share a room at the Pub with Aaron. This is what makes his life these days, and he don't regret having it. He seems so much calmer with himself, and happier. I love this side to Robert.

I'm reading the spoilers again, especially those antistatic posted earlier (thanks!). I'm going to be cautiously optimistic that neither Aaron nor Robert is seriously injured or killed. I hate when soaps decide to do these big stunts and kill off characters.

I hate when soaps decide to do these big stunts and kill off characters. Not me, I want desperately for Robert to get hurt (I'm one of those weird h/c girls who loves it when their favorite is injured). We have seen Robert support Aaron all year and I am more than ready for the tables to be turned and for Aaron to worry and take care of Robert for a change. I still haven't forgiven him for not going to the police station after Robert was arrested and keeping the truth from him about Liv's involvement. Robert has gone above and beyond in showing Aaron how much he loves him (granted, he absolutely should have after terrorizing Aaron last year), but I think he has more than proven his devotion to his boyfriend. OTOH, I don't always see the same from Aaron and it's really starting to irritate me. It's high time for Aaron to step up and sometimes put Robert first. I think the spoiler about him getting angry because Lachlan threatens to lie about Robert sexually abusing him is a good start.

I'm sure we very soon will see just how much they both mean to each other. They will protect one another as much as they can. Me too want to see Aaron being there for Robert. I'm pretty sure one or both will get injured in the cliff fall.
Maybe after this big week Robert will take it more easy and slow down on getting the revenge over Chrissie. He just have to be smarter and use his brain instead. She knows what he's trying to do.
From The spoilers so far I have read that James will be murdered ( probably by Emma ), The funeral is for Holly, Robert and Aaron will survive, Rebecca will try it on with Robert without getting Lucky, Moira might leave the farm, Charity most likly will leave on her own without Cain.
The most important is that Aaron and Robert's love will be stronger than ever before.

I thought Moira and Cain was a great couple and would be together forever. Now I know in the soap world couples never stay together are happy forever without breaking up once or twice, but I was rooting for them even though I don't know their history together.

Who knows.. If Charity leaves maybe they get back together? Just a couple of Days ago when Cain visited Moira to let her know he's leaving with Charity, I got the feeling that if Moira would have taken him back there and then, he would have said Yes. I Think one of the reasons he says he will leave is because he don't Think he git a chance with Mira anymore. I Think they do want to be together.

I saw the photos and in one case f them Robert and Rebecca are kissing, he is wearing the same. Loathes as the other photo but she is wearing a dress and in the other is like a night gown, I'm concern that in the second one could've possible that Robert cheat and this is the after sex photo. I be really piss if Robert wants to propose to Aaron out of guilt

Right now I'm just looking forward to nerveous Robert proposing to his boyfriend. And turning Rebecca down.

From Ryan's interview...
"Robert and Aaron have had their ups and downs but things are starting to look better as they trust each other and their relationship is in a good place. Robert’s faith has been put to the test by Rebecca but he has turned her down in favour of sticking with Aaron. He wants to propose to him and he’s run it past Victoria who’s really excited and they’re looking forward to the outcome of him popping the question.”
And we know before he can The Little Bastard gets in the way. I wouldn't care if they killed him off, but not this way. One, it would cloud their joy and get in the way of their happiness long term. And two, it would be too similar to what happened with Katie.

I just don't get how Robert can propose when they haven't even told each other that they love each other yet? And also what happened to the show exploring his sexuality? NO, turning Rebecca down and proposing to Aaron is NOT the same as them exploring his sexuality. I thought they were going there with Rob's "I just don't get why they all gather in one place" comment which reeked of internalized homophobia. But that didn't go anywhere either.
It's not the first time the show has dropped the ball on Robert. Connor was a really interesting glimpse into his past, but that didn't go anywhere either. Yet another lost opportunity.
It's like the show cares more about Robert and Aaron as a couple than Robert individually and it pisses me off. I'd love to see more of Robert's past and to actually see his process of self acceptance ON SCREEN, not off.
I find it really hard to accept that Robert is now suddenly fine with being whatever he is just because he is with Aaron because his comment about gay bars inidcated the opposite.
I'd love to see them get engaged, but not now. It's too soon. Robert needs to accept himself first. I'm sorry, I know this is an unpopular opinion and that's fine.

I'm starting to wonder if Emmerdale changed writers too when Lain started on the show as the Writing suddenly changed big time. Tooo manny stuff happens off screen, stuff they start on , they don't finish, comments on the show is all of a sudden forgotten about, and lead to nowhere. The important history is also fogotten about.
Just can't explain all these moments which could have been so great if told the right way/or at all. Too many times it feels like we only get half of a story shown to us,with the other half missing , or we're supposed to make up the rest ourselfs.

Looking at the photo in the hospital makes me wonder why on earth Pierce is not wouned in any way while all of the others have bandages/blood on them?
I have a feeling something might happen to Paddy, and I do hope he's not seriously injured.
Another thing.. Out of all the characters in the photo there has been questions like "who will die", "will he/she/they die".. but in the photo Lachlan is missing..and the questioned has never come up with his character yet.
He's on the Cliff with Aaron and Robert. I think he might be the one out of the three of them to die.
For months now we have read how Bright Aaron and Robert's future looks. The closer to this week we get, the more we get to read about one of them might be dying.
I just find that so funny for some reason..
When did Aaron get "his" blue car which the spoilers says belong to him?
Where is Robert when we see Aaron and Lachlan on the Cliff?
Can't have been very easy for Lachlan to escape and run with his hand tied up.

We know neither of the guys will die. But tension has to be built. Everyone is talking to the press saying that someone is dying. It could be anyone. But we know neither Robert or Aaron is dying. The thing will be how they will be affected by what happens. And how it will fuel upcoming story.
Also both Robert and Aaron have said they love each other several times.
From the Soap Scoop twitter account...
"Their ep was written by a huge Robron fan on the team. LOTS explored about their relationship in the conversations they have."
The whole week has a funeral happening and on Friday you see who it's for. Maxine Alderton wrote their episode which airs Monday the 17th, and also wrote Friday the 21st, and Monday the 24th. She is known to be a fan of Robron and has written eps for them before.

I don't really want Robert & Aaron to get married right now, either. The way the show has been written lately I'm not sure they would do it justice. I, too, would like to see a bit more development first. Yes, Robert and Aaron have said they love each other on screen. It was a long time ago during the initial affair. I know Robert has said it more recently though I don't remember Aaron having said it since they've been back together. At least not on screen.

When they do get engaged, we still don't know if it happens after whoever dies, etc. They wouldn't have to get married that day. Can you imagine Chas planning the wedding, Marlon and Vic fighting over what to serve, and all the Dingles and Sugdens putting their two cents in driving the guys crazy. Then finally one or both would get fed up and want to cancel everything. So then everyone realizes it's their fault and end up putting on a simple, beautiful ceremony that is perfect for the boys.

I thought up coming funeral is for Holly.
Robert has called Aaron and Liv his family a few times, but we still haven't seen their famiy bond grow. When Aaron was in France would have been a great opportunity to have Robert and Liv actually form a bond without Aaron there. I Think they do need to at least have scenes togther/ talk or whatever. Liv is not around anymore. Where is she?
Will be interessting to see if and how Aaron and Robert might be injured next week. And how Liv will support them. Will she just be there for Aaron, or maybe even Robert?
Why is Paddy forced to deal with something about not being there for Aaron while the whole Gordon thing happened? Is Pierce really going to threathen him? Or worse, kill him? I don't want that. I would love for Aaron and Paddy to find their way back to what once was. Loved their father/son realationship back when Danny started n the show. They more or less "adopted" each other. They needed each other then, and I would love for that to be again. They were great togther. I like it last week when Liv was talking to Paddy.
Wish for the show to finally kill of Pierce and Emma.Can't stand them.

The article says the eps have "much of what Robron fans have been waiting to see" and that they have an "in-depth" conversation. I'm going to be cautiously optimistic about that. Though not every fan apparently wants to see the same thing. I'm also curious why Paddy has to confront guilt over not supporting Aaron. That could mean any number of things, some of them not good. But 3 lives seriously on the line, with the potential for long-lasting consequences, doesn't sound good. Especially considering the apparent cliff scene. I guess we'll see...

From the digitalspy article...
"But what the official spoilers probably don’t get across is just how well-written and well-crafted the Robron episode actually is. There’s comedy as Robert awkwardly plans his proposal, tension as he seeks the blessing of someone close to Aaron,and surprisingly in-depth conversations surrounding Robert’s past and sexuality."
Awkward Robert is so cute. 😳 I wondered if he would first get Chas'or Paddy's blessing. And finally what some of you have been asking for. For Robert to label himself.
