Emmerdale fans all have the same complaint about Chas Dingle
EMMERDALE fans all have the same complaint about Chas Dingle.
The adulterous Woolpack bar manager - who is played by actress Lucy Pargeter in the ITV soap - spent months cheating on husband Paddy Kirk.
She even planned to run away with lover Al Chapman and take her daughter Eve with her, depriving Paddy of his child.
But that all got thrown out when Al was gunned down and died.
Weeks of secret mourning followed, before Chas was outed for her affair and Paddy kicked her out.
Taking revenge, he decided that the best punishment would be to return the favour by insisting she carry out her plan to leave - but not with daughter Eve.
In tonight’s episode Chas was all ready to go - before her newfound brother Caleb snapped her out of it and told her she needed to be with her daughter.
With Paddy pushing for her to leave, Chas snapped and told him no.
“Oh Paddy, I get why you’re trying to make my life miserable,” she said.
“I see how much you’re struggling, how you’re drowning your sorrows. The carol concert - it was really hard to see you that wasted. And I get it.

“You’re just trying to hurt me as much as I hurt you. But now it needs to stop. I will never, ever forgive myself for what I did to you.
“I was selfish and I was cruel and I was ready to blow my life up. But now I’m putting it back together. Here.
“I need to be here near my daughter, near my family and my friends in my job.”
She added: “When you cheated on Rhona, you left but then you realised you needed to be here near your family, near your friends and Leo.
“Your life was here and so is mine. And I won’t be bullied out of my life or my home so stuff our agreement I am moving back in tomorrow.”
But Chas’ newfound strength has left viewers furious with some insisting she should still go.
One wrote: "Chas didn't actually have to leave permanently right? Just for a few weeks or so give Paddy some much needed space, so he can get himself back on track without her in his face. Could of easily used the time away to fix things with Aaron but clearly she's not interested #Emmerdale."
A second said: "Damn. We were SO close to getting a break from Chas. Nice one, Caleb."
Another added: "Glad Chas is still hanging round like a bad smell."
