ITV Emmerdale problem spotted as Meena is sentenced

Emmerdale viewers spotted a glaring error as Meena was sentenced for the murders of Leanna, Andrea and Ben.

During the evil nurse's trial, it seemed the verdict could've gone any way. Viewers were convinced she was going to get away with it but after testimonials from Manpreet and Liam, the jury found her guilty.

Monday's episode saw Meena sentenced to 75 years in prison, meaning she would be around 100 by the time she is released. The psychopath looked devastated as nobody turned up to the courtroom.

Thursday's episode saw Meena attack Manpreet with a shard of broken glass before making a run for it. Eventually caught by the police, she was locked away.

So when she arrived in the courtroom during Monday's episode, fans of the soap were surprised at the lack of security measures. She was walked in by one, single guard and immediately had her handcuffs removed.

Taking to Twitter, Lauren Angela May said: "Why is she not handcuffed after Thursday?". Newgoldsdream said: "One prison guard and not handcuffed. I don't think so".

Vera D said: "Held the court hostage last week, no handcuffs in court today". Sophie The Kidd said: "Wait, why isn't she in a straight jacket being carted about like Hannibal the cannibal?"

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