Emmerdale viewers fear for missing character as police make 'mistake

Many Emmerdale fans were all left asking the same question during a dramatic episode of the soap.

On Thursday evening, Emmerdale viewers watched Dan being questioned for his alleged attack on Lloyd. In recent weeks, Dan has not been happy with Lloyd’s pursuit of his daughter Amelia.

After some serious questioning, Dan was released by police during the latest edition of the soap. Although, the investigations continue.

Given the police featured heavily, some Emmerdale fans were concerned not to see the village’s favourite copper PC Mike Swirling make an appearance. Many took to Twitter to ask about her whereabouts.

We saw @@ASuperGav state: “Not a PC Swirling in sight.” While @emmerdale269s asked: “Where’s PC Swirling in all of this?”

Another viewer @emma28du2 said: “This is a mistake. PC Swirling is needed.”

Elsewhere, many Emmerdale fans didn’t like how ‘pantomime’ the police came across. Again, expressing their thoughts on social media.
