Fans of Emmerdale have praised ‘gripping’ scenes with Lydia Dingle in last night’s episode of the soap – but have all been left saying the same thing about the plot.
Recent episodes have seen Lydia attempting to reckon with the aftermath of being raped by childhood flame Craig. In last night’s episode, Lydia took to the police station to report Craig’s actions.
However, the pressure of the moment all got too much for her, and Lydia fled before she could tell anyone what Craig had done.
Emmerdale fans praise Lydia Dingle scenes
As the episode aired, fans took to social media to praise actress Karen Blick for her performance as Lydia. Many singled out last night’s episode (airing Thursday, September 14) as particularly believable.
“I have to say, Karen Blick has been phenomenal already in Lydia’s new storyline, her performances come across as very believable. I don’t like seeing her suffer and Craig is taunting her… is she going to confide in someone and report him to the police?” said one fan.
