Emmerdale: Liam told Chas some worrying news

Over in the Emmerdale village yesterday, Chas ignored Liam when he waved to her outside following on from their kiss.

Later on, Chas turned up to see Paddy, ready to collect Eve for her party but he wasn’t there.

Liam told Chas that she could wait there and it wasn’t long before things started getting steamy between the pair.

However, Mandy and Paddy soon turned up with Eve, prompting Chas to hide in the other room.

With Mandy asking questions about who Liam had hiding, they all left the house with Chas finally coming out of her hiding place.

Liam then had an honest moment with Chas as he told her that he’d found a lump in her breast.

He explained that it could be nothing serious but it was important to get it checked out at the surgery.

In denial, Chas rushed off and broke down once she was alone outside of Liam’s house.

Emmerdale fans unhappy with Chas breast cancer storyline

With Chas Dingle unfortunately being set to receive a breast cancer diagnosis in the coming weeks, Emmerdale fans are unimpressed with the soap.

They’re calling the storyline ‘predictable’ and ‘inappropriate,’ slamming the soap for using such a sensitive story to redeem the unpopular character.

One fan commented: “Liam: “I’ve found something. I’ve found that they are that desperate to make you tolerable again they are going to put you through something tragic.””

Another viewer replied: “Exactly – Emmerdale’s trying anything to try to make viewers like Chas… they are now going to gross lengths with the breast cancer storyline – so insulting & inappropriate.”

A third viewer said: “Emmerdale producers: What story can we give Chas so people feel sorry for her again and forget about all the damage she did to others? It’s so predictable…”
