While there, she was accosted by a group of teenage girls. Soap watchers were horrified when Nicola was mugged, beaten and left bloodied and unmoving.

But eagle eyed viewers noticed one thing that could lead to the thugs being caught sooner rather than later. They pointed out the vital piece of evidence.

Mel said: "#Emmerdale Surely there'll be CCTV there?". Lauren said: "Must be CCTV in the car park #Emmerdale."

Meanwhile, another user said: "#Emmerdale Nicola is a Marmite character who talks tough but she's very vulnerable. She still has signs of the disability she sustained after receiving a head injury a few years ago. To see those girls attack her was sickening. I hope there's CCTV & they get caught!"
