Message: <blockquote data-quote="emm1978" data-source="post: 234077" data-attributes="member: 128">I hope it involves the whole village...  I remember people commenting that when they did Jack Sugden's off-screen passing and funeral in 2009, they should only involve the  Sugdens and keep out characters like the Dingles and Wyldes, etc.Yet, when Henry Wilks (not a Sugden, but a close family friend) died in 1991, the whole family was involved.  At Henry's funeral were the newer families at the time, the Tates and Feldmanns, and the Bates too, who had been in the show for 7 years.  By the time of Jack's funeral, the Dingles had been part of the village for 15 years...  More than double the time the Bates had been around when Henry died.Wonder why viewers never used to be so picky when it came to newer characters been at funerals of older characters...  But there you go... :/</blockquote>
