Emmerdale fans not impressed as ITV soap slapped with 'distressing' warning | The Sun
EMMERDALE fans were not impressed after the ITV soap was slapped with a 'distressing' warning.
The show has featured some dramatic and hard hitting storylines in recent weeks, including Lydia Dingle being raped.
Ahead of Wednesday's episode, the voiceover person introducing the show issued a warning that it would feature "upsetting" scenes and "distress".
Indeed, Sam Dingle was struggling with his own emotions over his wife's rape at the hands of Craig Reed.
He raged to Cain Dingle: "I honestly think this is going to drive me mad, I'm not sleeping and Lydia can't even bear to be near me, she won't even let me give her a hug!
"This is me, I'm not like that, like him! Only maybe she won't ever see me again, in the back of her mind all she can see is Craig!"

Cain told him they could "sort it" and when a distressed Sam asked how, he replied: "Well there's the law and there's the Dingle law, always has been."
Sam replied: "Make him pay…Cain, Lydia said she definitely didn't want owt like that."
But Cain replied: "But she's in no fit state to see what it's doing to you."
But it seems Emmerdale viewers weren't impressed with the pre-show warning, as it wasn't the first time the show had received one.
