I agree with this, Ashley has been in the for 16 years, and he has never shown any shades of being an abusive prick. And as for Viv and Terry, you can watch how unspectacularly their deaths played out here
My feeling is that the new producer, Stuart Blackburn (who took over after Gavin Blyth passed away during the filming of the above fire), wants to make the show have more of an urban, gritty feel, something Emmerdale shouldnt have.
