emmerdale

Emmerdale (known as Emmerdale Farm until 1989) is a British soap opera set in Emmerdale (known as Beckindale until 1994), a fictional village in the Yorkshire Dales. Created by Kevin Laffan, Emmerdale Farm was first broadcast on 16 October 1972. Interior scenes have been filmed at The Leeds Studios since its inception. Exterior scenes were first filmed in Arncliffe in Littondale, and the series may have taken its name from Amerdale, an ancient name of Littondale. Exterior scenes were later shot at Esholt, but are now shot at a purpose built set on the Harewood estate. The programme is broadcast in every ITV region.
The series originally aired during the afternoon until 1978, when it was moved to an early-evening prime time slot in most regions; London and Anglia followed during the mid-1980s. Until December 1988, Emmerdale took seasonal breaks; since then, it has been broadcast year-round. The programme began broadcasting in high definition on 10 October 2011. Since January 2019, ten sequential classic episodes of the inception of Emmerdale have been broadcast weekly on ITV3. From 5 May 2020 the ITV3 Classic Emmerdale reruns shortly after re-transmission were made available on the streaming catch-up app ITV Hub.

    Emmerdale - Picture quality

    Never been sure where to raise this query as not many AV Forums contributors will admit to watching any soaps. I don't think this is my imagination but there appears to be a marked difference in quality of picture between the Leeds studio interiors and those shot on the 'village' location. As...

    Emmerdale

    Has anybody else noticed that the Emmerdale picture has gone a lot sharper. Anybody know why ? Is this the way of all future broadcasts ? Not sure I like it too much to be honest, looks a bit too sharp.
