Emmerdale fans have hit out at writers after Chas Dingle's emotional declaration of love to Al Chapman.
During tonight's episode, she lied to her grieving son Aaron about her affair and then ran into the arms of her lover once more to tell him: "I hate myself for loving you". What was clearly meant to be quite an emotional and perhaps sympathy-inducing moment for the audience, definitely did not go down well with fans.
Instead, they voiced their anger over the ongoing affair plotline and said they could not wait for husband Paddy to finally find out about his cheating wife.

One fan tweeted: "You wouldn't think this soap was being ruined by a female producer! It's like her sole mission, aside from plots, acting and dialogue that verge on parody, is to make women deluded and really nasty. Chas is both - she used to make us laugh and gain sympathy at one point!"
Another fumed: "Samson s***-talking to a newborn baby and now Vinny s***-talking to a doggie. F*** this writing team."
Chris P criticised: "#Emmerdale have a stupid story and u think they can't get worse then [boom] they do and by an unbelievably massive amount."
Stacey said: "Chas Dingle is the vilest character I have ever encountered. Using her dead baby as an excuse to lie about her affair.
"Why couldn’t the storm have wiped her out @emmerdale #emmerdale."
Another viewer said: "This storyline is horse manure. No MORE!!! #emmerdale."
