Emmerdale fans confused as the new Woolpack is deserted

Emmerdale's iconic pub has finally reopened after closing for a significant overhaul.

As you might expect in soapland, the Woolpack's official reopening on Thursday did not go as planned.

Charity and Ryan bought the pub, which Chas had been forced to sell due to a lack of income.

On Thursday, Charity was hoping the entire village - and everyone from Hotton - would be in the pub as she raised a glass of champagne.

However, with the B&B also hosting Liv and Vinny's wedding party on the same day, the place was deserted.

Chas and Charity went head-to-head after Mack sabotaged the B&B, and both ended up covered in buffet food.

Friday's episode showed the pub not looking much better in terms of customers through the door.

Marlon and Charity both complained at the lack of takings.

But some viewers were confused as to why Emmerdale residents seemed to be surprised.

Taking to Twitter, Doreen Morfitt said: "Marlon moaning about the lack of customers. It's the Woolpack mate, you must be joking"

Ryan Glendenning said: "The Woolpack is still dead, what was the point of reopening?"

JamieNews81 said: "Still no customers?"

Pamela Moore said: "The Woolpack had about 5 customers a week."

Emmerdale airs weekdays at 7.30pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
