Emmerdale viewers weren't especially sympathetic with Rhona as her marriage bid to Marlon went up in smoke – almost literally.
Rhona (Zoe Henry) proposes to Marlon (Mark Charnock) who turns her down over fears he won't recover from his stroke and be able to consummate their marriage. But Rhona's heartbreak is sidelined by an even 'hotter' health issue.
To create a romantic mood, Rhona lights dozens of candles but neglects to extinguish them as she hastily exits. She leaves stroke victim Marlon, who struggles to walk a single step with a zimmer frame, in a room full of lit candles.
