Emmerdale spoilers: Doug Potts caught smoking weed by horrified Eric Pollard
CHARITY Dingle ups her campaign against drugs in Emmerdale next week, to the horror of recently confirmed stoner, Doug Potts.
Eric Pollard decides to step in and help, resolving to join the quest to rid the village of drugs.
But later, as he’s enjoying a sneaky spliff, Doug is caught red-handed by Pollard. What will he do?
Doug – who’s played by Duncan Preston in the ITV soap – has recently turned to cannabis to help ease his chronic back pain.
The pensioner had already tried CBD oil, but it didn’t have the desired effect on his agony.
Instead he’s turned to weed, which many people claim helps with a variety of medical conditions.
Viewers took to Twitter to voice their opinions about Doug’s alternative method of pain relief.
One tweeted: “Catching up on the soaps tonight to see what I’ve missed like the Granny I am to only bloody find Doug on Emmerdale getting high as a kite off weed.”
Another said: “Awwww not Doug the pothead!"
"He'll be listening to Bob Marley next and sporting a head of dreds!!"

A third commented: “Doug and this cannabis plant storyline is giving me the most jokes.”
A fourth said: “Doug getting high in emmerdale is hilarious."
Doug was also seen heading into the café to buy some cake, with fans in hysterics and claiming he had the munchies.
Doug’s new habit recently got Dawn Taylor into trouble with pub landlady Charity Dingle.
Having caught the smell of weed wafting through the pop-up pub, Charity jumped to conclusions and blamed recovering drug addict Dawn.
