Emmerdale fans spot huge blunder as Moira becomes Jacob’s biggest fan on social media
The editing mistake was spotted by a lot of fans
Last night’s episode of Emmerdale saw numerous villagers take a trip to A&E during Jacob’s first day on his placement. But as Moira was showing him support, fans noticed one big blunder.
At the start of the episode of Emmerdale, Moira saw Jacob at the hospital and got excited at the thought of him starting his placement.
Then not long later, when she was on her phone, she showed Cain a photo that the student doctor put on his social media.
Emmerdale Moira and Jacob blunder
But eagle-eyed viewers noticed she was actually logged in as Jacob, not just viewing his profile.
This editing blunder was noticed by many fans, and it’s safe to say they found it both annoying and amusing.
Speaking about the mistake on a Reddit thread, one fan wrote: “Moira, at the start of the episode is on her profile looking at Jacob’s post. But she also seems to be logged in as him. I sure hope somebody got fired for that blunder.”
Another fan joked: “She liked his new photo so much she made it her own profile picture.”
While editing mistakes like this aren’t out of the ordinary, especially when phones are involved, it was a very easy thing to spot.
And since there was a focus on the fact Moira was even following Jacob in the first place – have we ever seen them interact? – the visual editors probably should have double checked that one.
Aside from the blunder, others question why she was so excited for him, as they don’t ever interact in the village.
Why does Moira even follow Jacob?
One jokingly wrote: “How many times have we seen Moira and Jacob on screen at the same time? They could be the same person.”
Others took to X (formerly Twitter) to share their confusion over their new bond.
A viewer wrote: “Since when did Cain and Moira notice Jacob existed let alone talk about him so much?”
While we have never really seen their friendship on screen, Moira told Cain she followed Jacob on social media because son Kyle does and she likes to keep track.
