Emmerdale fans shared their confusion as they tuned in to find out the fate of some of the soap's best-loved characters. As part of its 50th anniversary celebrations, bosses of the ITV soap have unleashed a windstorm on the Yorkshire village with the lives of its residents set to never be the same again.
And during Wednesday night's trip to the Dales, viewers were left 'broken' as Liv Dingle - nee Flaherty - became the second victim of the horror natural disaster. The character, played by Isobel Steele, became trapped underneath a rouge caravan as she and her husband Vinny attempted to make their way to The Woolpack.
The couple had tried to make their journey from their home to the pub after a panicked Paddy Kirk arrived and told stepson Aaron that his mum, Chas, was in hospital after being injured in the storm. As the pair planned to rush to be with her, vet Paddy asked Liv and Vinny if they'd mind going over to the pub to watch his and Chas' daughter, Eve.
