Emmerdale viewers were baffled by a blunder as Alex Moore showed his sinister true identity.
Viewers of the soap have been dubious over the character's true intentions since he returned to the village. Fans following the show on Twitter yesterday questioned if he had a personality transplant after he had been in prison.
He told Naomi Walters in Tuesday's show that he was helping out a mystery woman named Claire as a favour for a friend he was in jail. Fans were sceptical as he won Naomi around when he vowed to do "whatever it takes" to keep her in his life.
