Emmerdale fans sink claws into ‘daft’ Moira Barton’s response to Mackenzie Boyd getting st𝕒bbed
Mackenzie was rushed to hospital once Moira found him, but she made a strange demand at the hospital.
EMMERDALE fans have sunk their claws into Moira Barton’s ‘daft’ response to Mackenzie Boyd getting stabbed.
Thursday’s episode of the ITV soap saw Charity Dingle continue to spiral mentally following the events of Christmas Day.
The Woolpack landlady – who is played by actress Emma Atkins in the ITV soap – killed gangster Harry to save husband Mack’s life.
However in the latest episode, she started to suffer from hallucinations of Harry terrorising her in her cottage.
Mack tried to snap his wife out of her waking nightmare, but when she did, she shouted: “Leave me alone” and lashed out with a knife.
Mack stumbled back and was bleeding heavily from the stab wound to his stomach, but Charity just sat in a catatonic state and was unable to help him.
Thankfully, his sister Moira arrived later and found him, before calling an ambulance and having him rushed to hospital.
Once there, she blamed herself for not making her brother aware of how Charity had been struggling with her mental health.
She told a comatose Mack: “I’m so sorry, I should have warned you.
“I had no idea Charity didn’t tell you what she was going through until today. But you’ll be OK.”
Medical then arrived to take Mackenzie down to theatre to operate on the wound and make sure his internal organs around the knife’s entry point were OK.
Tearful, Moira asked: “Erm…can I go with him?” but was told no by the nurse.
“You need to make him better,” she told the nurse, before turning to Mackenzie and sobbing: “I’ll be waiting…I love you.”
But Emmerdale fans were baffled by Moira’s comment, and took to X – formerly Twitter to chastise her.
One wrote: “Can I go with him…I think Moira got the wrong type of theatre…”
Another added: “How can you go with him Moira he’s going to theatre.”
A third tweeted: “Moira you daft **** . Why would they want you in theatre? What are you going to do? Pass them a scalpel?”
Meanwhile a fourth shared: “Bowel trouble Lummox Liam probably wrong Moira can I go with him? What ya gonna do the stitches.”
