Emmerdale viewers were divided over Will Taylor's hard man posturing during tonight's episode as they accused the producers of 'ruining' the character.
Will (Dean Andrews) is normally a nice guy but we saw him channelling some tough guy vibes during a confrontation between Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) and his newfound brother Caleb (Dominic Brunt). Will has been attempting to prevent Cain seeing his killer son Kyle (Huey Quinn) while shielding Kyle's mum Amy (Chelsea Halfpenny).
Lest Emmerdale viewers forget Will's drug dealer and gangster past. Will was a member of dead bent copper Det Insp Mark Malone's gang who eventually ended up in prison for his crimes.

Michelle Jones: "Will gets more unlikeable with each episode."
Michelle said: "Will is doing my head in acting like a big man. Calm down, lad."
Beccy said: "Will steps up to Cain Dingle and now he thinks he’s Billy Big b******s."
Georgina said: "What is Will’s problem in Emmerdale? He used to be a nice character, now he’s got a chip on his shoulder."
Teri said: "Will is so unlikable now. Please bring back the one that I shipped with Kim."
Although some viewers praised Will for protecting Amy and Kyle.
Sarah said: "I think I’m with Will. Caleb and his clippy-cloppy shoes get on my pip too."
Phil said: "Caleb is properly annoying. In the village five minutes and he’s sticking his nose into everyone’s business. Well done Will for standing up to the 'Chuckle Brothers'."
Trojan Maru said: "Good on you Will. Normally I side with Cain but he's acting like a bully"
