So then. Our knight in shining armour who rode in to save precious Pariah from a life on a For Sale List on Ebay is a total cad and an A1 bounder, for all his respectability as a brilliant man of the law he is an arse of the highest order alongside his old pal the cokehead Jai
* First off it turns out he and Jai used to flog cocaine to their uni mates, even using Rishi's fleet of toffee wagons to transport their filth about the country.
* Now he's gone and fabricated documents from a DNA clinic to clear his precious son of responsibility for the kid Johnny lying in an incubator at 'Otten General, just cos he does not approve of the cougar Nessie getting her mitts on his boy or stopping him from going off to university.
This is sure to implode on him soon. Pariah has kept his grubby secret thus far of course but you can see she already feels Kirin has a right to know that he is the real father of baby Johnny rather than the dope Ten-2-Two. Will she keep her trap shut?
IMO as is the way with all soap babies and their unexpected arrivals (usually in bizarre places) there is going to be something wrong with the baby which means it will become obvious that Adumb is not the father after all and Nessie will realise that someone has tampered with the test results having rung the clinic to find the result she got was definitely NOT the one they gave her. Rakesh will be toast m0918

Does he not have an office that he needs to go to sometime. Unless his headed notepaper says that his business address is Bob's Cafe or the pub.

Rakesh the Dodgy Man-of-Law - he has two offices currently.
One is sprawled across one of Bob's sofas, café late in hand whilst he juggles with a dirty nappy, having his ears bent by Pariah, Bob's Café, Emmerdale village.
OR
Propping up the bar, pint of ale in hand whilst squabbling with a boggle-eyed coke-head and arguing with son whilst lying to said son and whingeing at Pariah, c/o The Woolie, Emmerdale Village.
He obviously has no need to ever go to court either so he must be so brilliant nobody dares to challenge his superior legal knowledge in front of the Beak.

I`m stone cold sober as usual about 99% of the time, so I will admit that when Rakesh first came into it I really liked him. In fact I liked him up to the time he faked the DNA results. Then I could see what a ruthless spiteful person he could be.

The dodgiest lawyer in soapland, that's for sure. Like Wendy, I did like him when he first came into the show, he seemed a normal, decent guy.
But like a lot of folks in the village, he has devolved into yet another character with criminal tendencies, which is disappointing. First it began with Rakesh supplying Jai with money to buy Fake Archie and the subsequent cover-up, then it continued with the false DNA results of Vanessa's baby, and now we've discovered he use to be Jesse Pinkman to Jai's Walter White and peddled drugs with him. Where will it stop? He has gone from being a good, upstanding lawyer to a deceitful, corrupt lawyer.
I am aware that Jai hinted at Rakesh's dodgy background when he first arrived, but I assumed it was just Jai being Jai and stirring trouble. There was nothing to suggest that Rakesh was highly immoral and corrupt. I don't mind that Rakesh has a dodgy backstory, but did they really have to effectively make him a one-dimensional ex-drug dealer? Why not something more complex and grey? Does everything have to be so black and white in soaps? Nobody can sympathise with a man who peddled drugs...
Frankly, I think the writers have taken the easy route with the character because bad guys are always so much easier to write than nice guys. I mean who wants to watch a boring, nice guy lawyer, right? At least that's what the producers/writers seem to think. No doubt Nikhil will return to the village as yet another businessman-turned-criminal...
I suspect we will learn more about Rakesh's criminal history in the coming weeks/months. I have a feeling David or Eric will find out about Rakesh's drug dealing past and attempt to use it against him to ensure Chrissie goes to prison.

Oh lawdy yes. That way lovely Bollard gets His Own Way yet again. Rakesh was a nice bloke when he arrived, a lonely widower on the lookout for a Trophy Wife but yes They have gone and ruined him with his petty squabbles with coke-head and now the catalogue of lies he's gone and created to keep Kirin away from his own child. I just hope he gets a come-uppanccee for all this

Oh he will, don't you worry about that, escargot. Kirin will most likely disown him when he finds out the truth, I mean his relationship with Rakesh is bad enough as it is, so imagine how bad it will get when Kirin finds out he falsified the DNA results. The Bartons will hate his guts too, particularly Moira and Adam.
Also, I think it's only a matter of time before Priya leaves him. I have a feeling she will try getting back together with David now that Alicia is out of the picture. There doesn't seem to be any passion or genuine love between Priya and Rakesh, and it just feels like Priya is waiting for someone better to come along. I could be wrong, but that's how I see it.
There wouldn't be much keeping him in the village if that happened...

We should bow down to Rakesh's superior knowledge and experience in all areas of the law, and the justice system. He's a great defence lawyer. And a prosecution lawyer. Corporate lawyer too. He's dabbled in being a divorce and private attorney. A renowned judge and all. I'm pretty sure I saw him in the jury box when I had that last brush with the law.

Pariah will be back on Ebay once everyone finds out she knew what Rakesh had done.

Did anyone else smirk when Rakesh wore his lawyer wig on Thursday, or was it just me? It looked like he was auditioning for a role as a pantomime Dame. One of the Ugly sisters perhaps?

I hope the red face Bollard gets charged with racism. He really is a revolting specimen.

When Kirrin Island gets Belle up the stick, I really hope Lisa gives Rakesh a ruddy good hiding.
Not a few slaps either, but a real infirmary job. Dinner through a straw and all that malarkey. Then in a chair for the rest of his life.
I'd dearly love to see somebody break every bone in Pollard's body too, must admit. And I'm the type who normally loathes violence weirdly enough.
I really want to see Pollard get tortured as well. Maybe somebody could set about him with a heavy poker or something? It's the only reason I'm tuning in these days, in the hope of seeing a few good lampings. I want to see him have his beady little eyes taken from him with a tea spoon too, preferably one from Bob & Edna's cafe. Just so he can't enjoy looking at any more photos of Valerie.
Does that make me a bad man?
I want to see all of these scumbags viciously beaten too ...
