(315) Aaron & Jackson - 9th May 2011 

That moment between Aaron and Hazel down at the pier was so moving - "He's my boy too". Danny Miller's delivery of that line was perfect.

my boy too hazel's right, the best answer possible.

'are you going to give up on my boy?' Aaron: 'he's my boy to' Cutest fucking thing I have ever heard! Just that little line got me in tears, I still don't want Jackson to die! Dreading it:'-(

Aaron is so cute when he cries. I really want to comfort him...

However you feel about this storyline, you've got to give massive props to danny miller, pauline quirke and mark silcock for putting their heart and souls into these roles, take a bow all of you......

I know it's a soap opera, and it's melodrama, and it's sad that Aaron and Jackson aren't going to go forward (or so it appears), but these three actors honestly are HANDS DOWN three of the most fantastic actors ever. Mr. Silcock's pain, Mr. Miller's frustration, and Ms. Quirk's pain are all nearly PALPABLE through my little computer screen. Kudos to them as actors. THIS is the craft of acting.

Thank you for your comment. I feel this storyline has been ripped from my life. My Partner of 12 years was coming home from work, was hit by a drunk driver, head-on. he did not die on impact, after 6 months in the hospital, then 3 months at a rehab facility, did him in. He lost the will to live. Growing up gay in a time when that was NOT done, finding another guy who feels the same way, he was my soul-mate. spending 12 years of my life all to have it torn away, watching him sink deeper.

'Hes my boy too' Oh Aaron i love you!

Aaron, "I Love You, you will always be the same to me". At the pier, "He's my boy too". best line and truly shows how much Aaron loves Jax. Brought tears to my eyes. The scene between Aaron and Jackson, picking him up and threatening to throw him out the window. Emotionally charged. Aaron had done so much and is doing everything to keep his first love alive. Everything he's keeping inside is making its way out slowly. Love for some one can make one do things they normally wouldn't do. They are so young that its so hard to see this. If they were 80 plus I can see why assisted suicide, especially when its end of life. The are so many factors that's go into why one would do it.

"he's my boy too," was the best line ever. brought me to tears. really wish this storyline was going in another direction.

What a powerful set today. Truly amazing performances from Danny, Marc, and Pauline.

They tried to make him happy. He knew they loved him. They never gave up on him. Just wish they'd let them be happy. It's sweet that Aaron says he's my boy too

"I love you two so much!" "I love you" "he's my boy too" how much can this episode make me cry?! :(

Poor Jackson he had me tearing up xx

no words can discribe what I am feeling right now. i am sooo sad at this outcome and how they wrote it but I am so proud of Hazel Marc and Danny that they put a truly great piece of story out there for us viewers. The writers are only as good as the actors and visaversa. The direction in bringing everything out of them in these scenes are just PHENOMENAL My hats off to the trio BRAVO WELL DONE!

his my boy too cutest line ever.

"Thank you for caring enough to try." - stabbed me in the heart. "He's my boy too." - opened the flood gates. "You know what I'm asking you to do mum." - I think I need tear duct reduction surgery now. The only thing, and I thank god they didn't do it, the only thing that would've made this more painful would've been a scene with Aaron on the phone, in tears to Paddy asking him for help.

"He's my boy too" - Emmerdale, all is forgiven.

"He's my boy too". *sniffles*

when Aaron said, "he's my boy too" it really did cheer me but at the end the tension between Jackson and Aaron....it was very intense and when Aaron was yelling "I said give me my ticket" i just felt like the stone was hitting hard on the bottom of the sea.. Jackson is really giving Aaron a lot of pressure, and to be honest i really think Aaron has tried really hard...more than he has ever done already!! And as of now, i don't think it matter anymore whether Aaron or J is being affectionate!!

Your comment is impacting and needed in a way. So sorry you had to go through that. I´ve never been in similar situations but I can´t understand how people can be so closed minded, especially people who have been discriminated very often. I´m proud of people like you.

this episode broke my heart. I'm crying so much. :'(

WoW Brilliant acting, Brilliant writing! 'hes my boy aswell' melted me to the core! Well the whole thing did actually.

Danny Miller at 7:50, dear god, just brilliant

oh my god, enlarge the video window and watch Danny and Pauline's faces at 6:01. And that outburst from Danny at 7:50. And lastly, that final scene between Marc and Pauline. How is it Emmerdale doesn't win more awards??????

I've never had it happen to me, but apparently killing someone changes you, no matter what! I mean, people have a hard time when they kill someone that they don't even know, while doing their jobs, even if it is by accident or on purpose, such as doctors, police, military, etc. But killing a loved one! That has got to be ten or a hundred times worse!

i actually cried for this episode, i felt for Aaron... i think it's time they have to let Jackson see the Councelor, it's the only way......

This is the 5th time watching and Yelp u guessed it. I'm setting here crying my eyes out and my heart and throat hurt again..

this storyline just to powerful.

Oh how I wish Jackson was still here. He could lead Aaron down the right path.

When Jackson started to cry and Aaron started to tear up, I don't know why but I started to tear up aswell

Regardless of what folk think of this storyline and how it portrays acquiring a disability, end of the day its a personal response to how things happen to us . I can`t believe how much this broke my heart to watch. The pain in Hazels face realising Jackson still did not want to live and the heartache showing in Aarons face and the explosion of anger and pain coming out in that rage. The last few minutes with Hazel and Jackson on the station was some of the hardest stuff I`ve watched in years.

Wow! brought tears to my eyes, great acting!

My heart is pounding and my I have tears in my eyes after that! I may not liek when this is going but damn that is some fine acting on 3 of their parts. Bravo!

the last scene is amazing! not just acting but as a story.. son asking his own mother to help him die... that is hard. I had tears all the way and was shaking my head. it is truly amazing..

OMG this episode had me in tears.Aaron,Hazel,Jackson i didn't have enough tissues.Jackson is breaking my heart to pieces he actually asking his mom to help him die.I feel bad for Aaron he just wants to save Jackson he loves him so much he wants Jackson to be happy.I loved Aaron saying Jackson was his boy and that he loved Jackson.Aaron going crazy picking Jackson up that he over did it but i understand his just so mad that Jackson is giving up on his life.Great acting Marc,Danny,Paulina

Damn, they (specially Marc) made me cry again, and that is really rare... And when Aaron says: he is my boy too, ahhhhh.... Now Hazel decided to help him, I wonder if Aaron is gonna help too. Gotta go take a breath now...

WOW omfg WOW omfg WOW omfg!!! I cried on this one! But not once, I think 3 different times. So many great scenes! WOW Ok I need a minute to compose myself...

Danny

Amazing acteing

ughhhh OMG! im balling here!!!! COME ON LET HIM WALK AGAIN! THIS IS SUCH GOOD ACTING BTW

hazel holding aaron's hand woz sweet x

Don't know about anyone else, but that pretty much wrecked me.

ok thats im done. im a puddle on the floor sobbing now

@soonersherewego As it's written, I don't think Aaron can bring himself to kiss him - even on the cheek. It's NO longer a Gay storyline but rather a story about two people in love and Aaron can't bare to get any closer than he is - because he would fall apart. And he's been trying SO hard to keep it together for Jackson. I think he believes if Jackson sees him falling apart, Jackson will lost it even more. I think I finally got what the writers were/are trying to convey.

I said Hazel..... Love it

I am one American who says great acting job u brought me to tears I hate what they are doing to the boys. there must be a miracle cure somewhere. We need soaps of this caliber over here. all of our gay soaps have been cancelled except for Brothers and Sisters which only come on once a week.

Very moving.

he has his socks tucked into his trainers wherever he is :-)

There's not a bad thing I can say about the actors. They're amazing. And I hate to be overly negative, but I still cannot seem to make myself accept the absolute disregard for the effectiveness of therapy and professional guidance. Family members intervene in loved ones' lives to get help all the time, even if they're NOT in such a dire situation as Jackson's! Hazel and Aaron's acceptance that Jackson doesn't even want to TRY it makes it almost impossible for me to be okay with Jackson dying.

wow. I keep saying that. I hate it, but how amazing are these actors. p.s. good new hair, Hazel!

One way to stop Jackson doing it was for Hazel and Aaron to say we'll do it too. It would have stopped him. When Aaron starts hurting himself after losing Jackson, chas threatens to hurt herself and it shook him up. The writers could at least have let his arms move. He could have touched his mother and Aaron. He might not have felt such despair. People thought they'd given up on him when actually they did it because he begged and begged. Aaron probably still hurts over it

As someone who had more than on suicidal person in my life I really wonder, why nobody got him professional help... I mean... He is SUICIDAL!!! isn't that the first thing you think of? Of cause he could refused it and probably would have, but there are also facilities who can take care. It doesn't help all the time, I am the first to know. But why did nobody even thought about it?

Oh my gosh..... I'm sad now :(

@cmaj129 Days of our Lives "Will's Story" - he'll be coming out this summer.

Yes I agree ;-)

Niech mi ktoś po krótce przetłumaczy ostatnią scene gdy Jackson zaczyna płakać bo nie dość że mam troche problem z Brytyjskim to jeszcze Jackson mówi przez płacz to już wogóle nie rozumiem :) z góry dziękuje. PZDR

I hate to say it, but I really liked this episode. Not because of what happened (because it broke my heart) but because the actors just blew me away, and because- unlike quite a lot of the eps recently- this was really powerful and emotional. I think they're dealing with this storyline quite well, even though every single episode makes me want to cry... Also, I think Aaron's behaviour was really interesting- can we expect a return to his violent temper and habits after J's death?

So freaken sad. They've tried it their way, now they really need to seek professional help! This is so intense. Very dramatic and very sad. I'm on the edge of my seat here!

Woo am the first one to comment, this was very sad epside but very good acting.

Thanks for the upload. I have to say, the glacial pace of this story is really beginning to wear on me. How long until we're all suffering some version of Stockholm Syndrome? This unhappy trio is really losing my sympathy lately.

I would have done it, if he was my family/close friend/my man I would have helped him too..None can help him, no drugs, no psychiatrists nobody..if you set your mind in that all the others can do is try and understand and at the end help how matter it hurts themselves!

That last scene was so powerful. The storyline as a whole sucks, but they have delivered some good scenes along the way.

@adgp I can´t understand. And they also deserved more last year already!

What does arron say at .16 to .17 seconds : Angin? what is that Black Pudding. and what does he calls Hazel? cop mate?

@themoonfellinlove Aaron says the black pudding is 'angin''. It means nasty in slang terms!

@sanyrub yes yes go compose...but it was pretty intense. The end got me when Jackson said, "you know what I'm asking mum." Oh my. But in reality if my life was turned upside down I would desire the same thing. To lose all control of your bodily functions would be quite terrible. I can't even imagine it.

@superxx57 I used to do more, but now I try to point out the problems at most once per episode. Otherwise, the board tends to be mostly favorable comments about the acting, which I usually agree with. I'm certainly not alone in finding the show to be in significant ways unrealistic. I keep watching because imo the glass is half full. "Whining"? That seems to me unfair & needlessly pejorative. I don't disparage comments on the show's strengths, as long as they don't try to deny its weaknesses.

ok, i hate the story line, but that's what i call great acting, wao!!!! they had me teary eyed!!!

What does Aaron say when Jackson asked him what did he see when he looked at the pictures?

Well I have to agree (still working on my Psych/Master Degree) not everyone is mentally/emotionally capable of overcoming even the most of difficult situations. Some can/some cannot. But I agree with **madmann100** these characters have been 100% intense when it's called for. Cheers to Marc/Jackson and best wishes to all his future acting rolls. I will miss you on ED. I have become a BIG BIG Fan..I hope you can one day be on a US soap.

Feel sorry for them its a dreadful thing to have to go threw it was his choice and I think that u should be Abel to end you're own life as its you're body you're minde no one else's but feel for Aaron afterwords and how it effected him with the self harming but think they did the right thing as he was in pain and was not happy they did all they could he us in a better place now ✌

@ACXiaoyu glad you liked it LOL

thanks Jon, wow this was some good acting here, i still wish that Danny would kiss him if not but on the cheek everynow and then. I think it would have mattered.

@alwaysuseless You're right. I probably should've left the "whining" part out of it, but it just annoys me when people constantly complain about how "gay characters" should be depicted, and I'm not just talking about you and this show, but it's done almost everywhere. What a lot of people don't get is that it's a soap, and it can't be written to satisfy everyone. In your case, the glass will never be completely full no matter what you're watching unless you write and produce it yourself.

I can't deny that the acting is brilliant, but the writing makes me sick to my stomach. Why are these two written as star-crossed lovers??? Why can't they just be happy for a change:( If I would have known from the start that they'd go and break my heart, I wouldn't have watched it in the first place.

@ACXiaoyu Ok I´m replying cos I finally composed...lol Yes I would probably desire the same, but think about Aaron, and Hazel...omg I feel like crying only by thinking about it! This is so powerful. And I´m pretty sure this video is still going to have plenty of awful comments.... I can´t... they are like haters at this point :)

Please disable the comments on this one eh?

@alwaysuseless Regardless of whether the guys are all over each other or not, this is an epic storyline complimented with superb acting. It's fine if you don't like it, but other people do, and that's okay too. What I find interesting is that you've been whining and complaining about this for a long time, yet you still continue to watch it. If anything, that's quite telling...

Comments here have said, in effect: Regardless of what people think about the storyline... It's quite telling that people preface their praise of the acting with this qualification. Is the glass half full because the acting is good or half empty because the storyline rings false & is subtly offensive? My only answer is that unfortunately the story doesn't offer a whole glass & never has. I used to hope it would eventually. Now I think it never will, even when it becomes Aaron & someone else.

You know if Aaron would touch him more often he wouldn't feel so alone!!

@DazedConfused989 Of course I don't know if he would. But neither will Hazel or Aaron if they never ask again. Besides, I don't think I said he'd consent. I expressed my wish that his family would consult a professional, not Jackson. To me, it seems Jackson is beyond the state of depression that he'd even be able to ask for help. He's fixated. Does that mean he's just hopeless and destined for suicide? All I'm saying, is when a life is at stake, I couldn't pass up a viable option to get help.

Okay, time to put poor Jackson (and us!) out of his misery.

@superxx57 I haven't done TV scripts, but I think I could rewrite this one so that Aaron & Jackson actually come across as lovers instead of brothers. Without any scenes inappropriate for early-evening British TV, one could communicate that they are lovers & allow them to act accordingly. As it is, the show is consistently devoid of that reality, and there is no excuse for this, despite all the excuses people come up with: British culture, demographics of the audience, Jackson's paralysis, etc.

@MissMusicAllTheTime i think after he dies, aaron is going to be violent again becuase he will be hurting so much and everything will annoy him x

@madamn100 AMEN!!!!!!!! They really have done a great job!!

@patroclus33 I´ve missed some of your comments, now I realize. Sorry. And you are always ok expresing yourself

What the hell does he want her to do, put a pillow over his head while he's sleeping? How can you ask your mother to "help" you to commit suicide! That's way beyond selfish in my opinion. He said it wasn't about Aaron, well, not everything is about him either. I felt so bad for Aaron cause he's trying so hard to help Jackson be whole again and everything he does is thrown right back in his face. I know it sucks to be paralyzed and it's a huge adjustment, but how can you turn your back on the pe

@saerae Do you honestly believe that Jackson would consent to therapy? In therapy, you can only get out what you put in and Jackson would be less than receptive in his condition.Therapists can only help the willing.

@jackmctn yes your so right... im always screaming at my computer TOUCH OR KISS HIM AARON!!

@patroclus33 Al right then, so they don´t love each other right? buff I thought it wasn´t that difficult to distinguish the things I explained. Aaron sleeps next to Jackson so they probably touch, what happens is that we don´t see it (and I would like) cos the show doesn´t want to show that, but apart from that, love is in the air, and of course drama at its best! God I never went to the movies hoping to see kisses. When you don´t see them but you are moved then you know that is something great!

Jackson, he does not dare to commit suicide and asks her mother to help her stead. Hazel, What can take away the suffering of her son would be doing but certainly not to kill their own children. Aaron, of course, were furious when the despairing lover. sometimes we think our problems are very big and like life is no longer useful. not all things are within our control. how we deal with the problem until the end of life?

@ACXiaoyu Spain! In Europe of course :)

@patroclus33 In a way I felt relieved too. I felt like Jackson convinced me this time it might be better to go. And I don´t know if you follow other slines on youtube but if you do you know there are almost no negative comments in there. Instead,the same people come to the Aarson sl and constantly leave negative comments. It makes them seem as haters. It´s not your case. I think they are pressed! Pressed cos this one shits on their favorites quality even without needing the physical interaction

I'd like pudding boy to give me his bacon too :-p

I wodner if Pauline Qurike will still be on? I mean... I really don't see it, but... just wondering... she's so amazing. But, I see after... this... she wouldn't really want to stay.

@axelnelson Spot on comments! :)

@alwaysuseless Offensive? wow a whole new level for trying to search for something negative to say...

@patroclus33 mmm, I really think Aaron and Jackson do connect. Can´t you see how much Aaron understands Jackson and viceversa and how much Aaron has done these weeks? If this isn´t the truest love storyline I´ve seen on YT then I don´t know what it is. What happens is that the lack of physical affection scenes the show has chosen to not show blinds people (we are supposed to think they touch but we don´t see it). For me is not that important. I want it but that doesn´t mean this is not love...

@patroclus33 Ok do you like this or not? If you know about some other show watchable on youtube better than this one can you please fucking tell me now? Cos if that exist I want it so bad given the fact I think this is the best I´ve seen and enjoyed and 'suffered' the most :)
