Emmerdale has confirmed more deaths in the limo crash, as they reveal who the fatality in the ambulance was.
Last night’s episode ended with confirmation that someone else lost their life. And tonight, it was revealed to be Leyla Harding.
Fans knew Roxy Shahidi was bowing out of the soap, and there were reports suggesting Leyla would lose her life in the crash. And heartbreaking scenes confirmed this tonight.
However, despite the incredible storytelling, viewers can’t help but notice the flaws. So let’s have a look at what was odd about the episode.
Emmerdale limo crash flaws – Did anyone remember Suzy died?
While admittedly there was a lot going on, nobody (other than Vanessa) seemed bothered that Suzy had just died.
In last night’s episode, when Charity finally got through to the emergency services, she was asked if anyone had been hurt. And while she very quickly mentioned Noah, she seemingly forgot about Suzy.
The focus was very much on those still alive. But once they found out about Leyla’s death, they were all devastated.
Vanessa was the only one who seemed to care that Suzy had died in the limo crash. And even she admitted she “can’t remember” the last thing they spoke about. But when Tracy told her about Leyla, she seemed even more upset about that.
While Suzy may not have been that relevant to the show at the moment and fans insisting she was “underused”, her death deserved a bit more attention.
Whether or not there will be a bigger focus on it in the upcoming episodes remains to be seen. But as Emmerdale just lost a big character in Lelya, we have a feeling Suzy won’t be the focus.
Sarah walked straight in to see Jacob
Jacob’s world came tumbling down (again) when he realised his mum had died. And after their last conversation, we’re sure he will be beating himself up.
As he was left alone with Leyla’s body, Sarah and Mackenzie arrived to see Charity and Noah. And after she was filled in on what happened to Leyla, Sarah headed straight for her boyfriend.
And she was able to just walk straight in to the room where Jacob and Leyla were. Nobody tried to stop her. Surely there would be rules against just anybody walking in to a room with a dead body?
Where is the police?
A crash this big, with two people confirmed dead and more injured is definitely due an investigation from the police. But where are they?
When emergency services arrived at the scene, there were only ambulances present. No police cars went to the lake. So you would imagine they were heading to the hospital – but no.
By the time all ambulances arrived, there were still no police. Mackenzie and Matty even had time to leave the pub, pick Sarah up and head to the hospital – and there were still no sign of anybody investigating the crash.
Aside from these and the other few flaws earlier in the week, this week’s episodes of Emmerdale have been gripping for viewers, who are deeming it the best in years.
