The Best Of Emmerdale. As a tribute to one of tv's best loved and longest running dramas, this is a very neat little presentation of the past 35 years. However it's a bit top-heavy concerning the last five years or so. If you have not seen the series since beginning of time-it will be a bit hard to follow such episodes as Marksmen at Home Farm or Kim Tate flees Home Farm, The Storm etc. But for a hard-core fan of the show-this is a brilliant piece of Emmerdale history and also a nice way to remember great characters no longer with us- such as Seth Armstrong and Clive Hornby in the role of Jack Sugden (such a gentle and down to earth character now that the creators have seen fit to mix in a bit too much americanized plots and OTT characters)the last remaining character from the very first episode (even though it was then played by a different person!).
