Emmerdale viewers fear for Moira over 'disturbing' assisted suicide story

Emmerdale fans are worrying about what the future may hold for Moira, who has agreed to help Faith with assisted suicide. Viewers have branded the storyline "disturbing" and have said that Moira is likely to end up in prison.

The storyline comes after Faith was recently given just a month left to live, after her nurse confirmed the bad news that her cancer had spread considerably. This left Faith springing into action to plan her final days, including organising her funeral plans.

But she has also put in place some plans to end her life "on [her] terms", should it come down to it. Faith wants Moira to help her end her life, if things get too painful at the end.

Though Moira has tentatively agreed, tonight's episode saw her expressing some concerns to Faith about needing to know exactly what will happen and when. But Faith said that this is not information she is willing to share and warned Moira about making sure that she does not end up implicating herself in Faith's eventual death.

She warned Moira that making any plans could result in them getting caught or - worse - could result in Moira going to prison for helping to end Faith's life. And Emmerdale fans have the same worry, as they have come out against the plan.

@PaulBiUK said: "This Moira and Faith storyline is disturbingly weird. Faith is not at this point in so much pain she need assistance to die. Think Dot Cotton and Ivy. The writing from that storyline and this one is night and day."

@JordanPhelps21 said: "Why do I feel Moria is gonna end up in prison for Faith's death". And @domain_harry agreed, tweeting: "why do i sense 'a moira going to jail' storyline coming up?"

@LunaLocoJewels said: "It would be hilarious if moira got sent down for this when she got away scot free with murdering emma". @LeedsSTUnited said: "Moira doesn’t realise she’s going to lose everything, everyone, and probably end up in jail, when it all goes t*ts up".

@winiboansi said: "Does Moira not understand that she could go down for this??! Also Cain & Chas would NEVER forgive her". And @mikepriestley13 said: "That’s cruel faith. You can’t put moira in that situation".
