ITV Emmerdale problem spotted as Christmas arrives on the soap

Emmerdale fans spotted a problem as Christmas arrived on the soap.

The countdown to the big day is on and Thursday's edition of the long-running soap was filled with festive spirit.

A joyful carol singing concert was held in the village and Rishi Sharma dressed up as Santa as characters looked forward to December 25.

However, one character who struggled with it all was Priya Sharma who is still recovering from injuries suffered during Super Soap Week.

Priya is still anxious about being in social situations and declined her daughter's invitation to attend the Christmas carol concert.

She felt guilty after letting her daughter down and made her way down to the village hall, but was eventually overwhelmed by her surroundings and suffered a panic attack.

Viewers following the show on Twitter were distracted throughout the episode as they noticed how sunny the weather was despite the supposed Christmas setting.

Doreen said: "It's so Christmassy - with the sun beating down and all the trees still in full leaf."

Andrew added: "I wonder when they filmed #Emmerdale? Looks very warm."

Pamela commented : "Why don't they wait until it's dark for the carol concert...it's like Christmas on Bondi Beach."

Pete said: "They film all this Christmas stuff on #emmerdale at the end of September early October"

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV and ITV Hub with an additional episode at 8pm on Thursday
