Emmerdale fans were left in tears at the end of tonight's episode, but not before spotting a funny nod to real-life current affairs. It was an emotional episode, as Faith prepared to say goodbye after deciding to stop her cancer treatment, but the Emmerdale producers still managed to pop in a humorous dig at Boris Johnson.
Fans took to Twitter after noticing that Faith, during her sentimental evening with Eric, said "them's the breaks" - words that prime minister, Boris Johnson, said during his resignation speech earlier today. It added a bit of light relief to an otherwise emotionally-heavy episode, although given the episode was filmed weeks in advance, seems highly likely to be coincidental.
Peta Fox said: "'Thems the breaks.' Says Faith. She’s not the only person to say that ridiculous line today!!" And @BListatCapital said: "Faith in Emmerdale just said ‘Thems the breaks’ … what is going on!!"
