Emmerdale viewers have slammed tonight's episode as "unsuitable for early evening TV" after Nicola King was brutally attacked by a gang of teens in a deserted carpark.
Nicola had been out for drinks with her sister Bernice and Laurel and ran into two drunk girls on her way to her car. One of the girls boldly asks her for booze before they get into a verbal sparring.
The conversation soon turns ugly when more teenage girls turn up and corner Nicola. She is mugged, beaten and left bloodied on the ground before losing consciousness.
