Emmerdale viewers rip into ’embarrassing’ blunder in middle of killer storm

THE storm continued to rip through the village during last night's trip to the ITV Dales.

Vinny Dingle and Liv Flaherty became its latest victims - but Emmerdale viewers had one major complaint.

Kim Tate and Will Taylor's wedding guests faced the dangerous weather on Tuesday while Chas Dingle was brought to hospital by her illicit lover Al Chapman.

Meanwhile, the couple were asked by Paddy Dingle (played by Dominic Brunt) to take care of Chas' daughter Eve.

Liv and Vinny (portrayed by Isobel Steele and Bradley Johnson) braced the weather to meet with the young girl in the Woolpack.

But as Vinny's scarf blew off and he attempted to catch it, his bride spotted a caravan heading their way.

The pair were left unconscious under the vehicle, thrown at them by the huge gushes of wind.

However, it wasn't enough for some eagle-eyed ITV viewers to be left at the edge of their seats.

These soap fans pointed out that despite the violent wind, many trees in the distance appeared to be standing still.

The blunder was put on blast on social media with viewers calling out soap bosses.

"A storm so localised the trees in the background are not swaying lol", one of them penned.

Another fumed: "This was way too far over the top. A car blew over? Trees bending but 10 yards in the distance they were perfectly still!"

"Quite embarrassing how overdone it was. And is it just me but for the past week or so has the sound quality been shocking?"

A third viewer chimed in: "Well, I'm sorry Emmerdale, I am pretty disappointed in the 50th-anniversary celebrations as the 'storm' blows through the village blowing a caravan onto Vin+Liv, blowing Sam onto a tractor spike and trees and leaves barely moving."

"It’s very windy in Emmerdale but the trees in the distance don’t move. Now that’s where I’d be walking!", echoed another.

One viewer commented: "Did anyone count all the trees not moving in the distance during the great storm???" as another jumped in: "Did anyone else notice the trees in the background were still, and I mean really still and yet cars were flipping lol."

The storm has claimed its first victim, PC Harriet Finch (Katherine Dow Blyton) after a horrific explosion in the woods.

Sam Dingle (James Hooton) was also left hurt as he was trying to escape a dangerous cow stampede.

But it's unclear whether Liv and Vinny will make it out alive.

And with actress Isobel Steele sensationally quitting the Yorkshire-based drama, anything could be possible.

Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7.30pm on ITV.
