Rita and Emily - Love Rivals!

While I could have predicted this, I'm also very glad about it! There's a spoiler in the Mirror that says Emily and Rita are going to be rivals for the affections of none other than Dennis Tanner who arrives on screen next week! Any storyline that gives the senior members of the cast more screen time is great in my books.

So far, Philip Lowrie is only here for six months so it's probably moot which of the women ends up winning his heart, if either of them do. Knowing Dennis, he'll have a cheeky grin and won't be able to resist either of them, though Rita's slightly closer to his age. Even better, you just KNOW Norris' nose will be out of joint!
