Emmerdale viewers say 'nicked' as couple caught in moment of passion

Emmerdale viewers were treated to quite the show on Monday (December 4) as two characters were caught in the throes of passion. Caleb Milligan (William Ash) and Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh) have spent the last few weeks ramping up their affair.

But an unsuspecting Nicky (Lewis Cope) got more than he bargained for when he walked in on the pair in a passionate moment. It's not something that many of us would savour, and viewers took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to make their feelings known.

Many fans have been furious all along about the affair, with Bobby Dazzler @unsworth1live annoyed at the 'hypocrisy': "#Emmerdale Tracy confessing her love for Nate one minute then having an affair with Caleb the next. Double standards, hypocrisy & lie’s[sic]. Honeymoon period over now?"

The lovebirds were enjoying a glass of wine - or, well, they managed just a sip - before they started to get intimate in the kitchen. They were seconds away from moving upstairs when Nicky knocked and walked in.

Matt Pinnington @MattPinnin83955 jumped right in with the pun of the night, saying: "Nicked by Nicky right there! #Emmerdale," while Gary Enfield @EnfieldGarry was intrigued with the scene, posting: "Ooh that was close. #Emmerdale"

SpiceRack 040962 @PJDavies1962 was concerned that the boy could see evidence of Caleb's ardour, posting: "Caleb talking to Nicky with a s***…now that’s a skill only a few can pull off #emmerdale," and Debs @DebsGlynm isn't convinced by the exchange, adding: "The smudged lipstick was not a giveaway then…, ffs #emmerdale"
