Many Emmerdale viewers were quick to call out actors featured in tonight's episode for 'bad acting' as they dubbed the half hour show 'depressing'.
Their views came in an episode which was preceded by an ITV warning at the start for possible distressing content.
During the show, we got to see angry part-time staff outside the HOP protest after Kim Tate plans to bring in zero-hour contracts along with Marlon's anticipated return home after suffering from a stroke. Although there weren't many members participating in the protest, the angry workers held up painted signs and chanted 'no to zero-hours' as they refused to work until Kim changed her mind.
