SH0CK: Mackenzie Boyd SEARCH Sparks Outrage Among Emmerdale Fans as They Voice the SAME COMPLAINT

Emmerdale viewers were infuriated as the police finally began to search for Mackenzie Boyd (played by Lawrence Robb) in the latest edition of the long-running ITV soap. Although he has been missing for weeks, no one has suspected Charity Dingle’s (Emma Atkins) husband was being held in a bunker by twisted k!ller John Sugden (Oliver Farnsworth). However, with all John’s secrets coming to light, the police finally mounted a search in the episode which aired on Thursday, September 18.

However, viewers were not impressed by their efforts and took to X to complain. “This police search is f****** infuriating to watch!!!” one ranted. “The #emmerdale police are so useless that even doing a so-called careful search, they still manage to miss the bunker, infuriating to watch!!!” A second agreed. A third chimed in: “How could the Bobby’s not notice the handle on the hatch to the bunker? Probably bc they’re #Emmerdale police! And Charity didn’t even notice after she tripped over it.”

“Police dogs even find mobile phones nowadays. Hotten police are stuck in the 90s,” a fourth observed. “Can’t rely on the police in the search, they’re useless, should’ve gone to Specsavers,” a fifth quipped.

Meanwhile a sixth theorised: “The way John can move around without anyone seeing him, the soap police will never find him, it’ll be Cain who finds him, and then keeps him in one of Moira’s barns for another month.”

Although the police eventually found the bunker, in which Mack had been trapped, there was no sign of him, as John had already delivered him to the hospital, claiming he had found him overdosed by the side of the road.

It was left to Mack’s sister, Moira (Natalie J Robb), to inform his wife, Charity, that he had been dropped off at the hospital and was in a bad way.

When he arrived at the hospital, doctors wouldn’t let her see him as they were working on him, and it looked like John’s change of heart in releasing him may have come too late.

Meanwhile, Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) was also full of regret, blaming himself for the carnage his husband had caused, as his mother, Chas (Lucy Pargeter), tried to reassure him.

John’s other crimes were also coming to light as people began to realise he had been behind the d3ath of Nate Robinson (Jurrell Carter) after Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) shared it wth his sister Victoria (Isabel Hodgins).
