Emmerdale viewers rumble Claudette 'addiction' as they make demand over new start time

Emmerdale viewers are convinced that they have ‘worked out’ Claudette’s secret addiction as they make an urgent demand to producers amid new time slots.

Last week Claudette came to the village to catch up with her son Charles and she soon found an excuse to stick around as she claimed to have suffered a nasty back injury.

During tonight’s episode of the ITV hit soap Claudette has finally confessed why she was lying about her back pain.

At the start of the episode Claudette continued to complain about her back problem and it seemed to be working as Charles and Naomi were both running around to meet her many demands.

Manpreet didn’t believe any of it and insisted Claudette was faking her injury and soon enough Claudette was caught after Manpreet caught her searching the kitchen for the biscuit jar. A furious Manpreet called Charles back home to deal with the situation and his mum finally confessed that she messed up.

In an emotional outburst, Claudette broke down and explained that she was homeless. Charles promised that he wasn't going to kick her out.

Some viewers think she may have lost her home because of her potential gambling problem as they beg bosses to change the show's time back to its original 7pm slot @Chris1968E tweeted: “#Emmerdale oooh has Claudette been a naughty old biddy. Did she get kicked out of her home for nastiness? Did she gamble it away? These & others answer on your next episode of.”

@OrvilleLloyd asked: “#Emmerdale Is Claudette telling full story? She is hiding something?" And others voiced their delight at Emmerdale's new time slot. @Onelifee3 commented: “So happy #emmerdale is back on at 7pm.”

@Pinkladyxxxxx asked: “#emmerdale Has Emmerdale now been permanently moved to the 7pm slot?” @mikepriestley13 wrote: “#Emmerdale on at 7pm just feels right.. back to normal @emmerdale.”
