Emmerdale viewers spotted a problem as Leyla Harding's problems spiralled.
Wednesday's edition of the long-running soap continued to explore the character's difficult time in the fictional village. Leyla is married to village doctor Liam Cavanagh - and the couple have struggled since Liam's daughter, Leanna, was murdered by Meena Jutla last summer.
Leyla has since suffered a miscarriage - and the turbulent situation prompted her to turn to drugs. She has since vowed to kick her addiction issues, but agreed to store drugs for her former dealer, Callum, due to her company's worsening financial situation.

Leyla was shocked in tonight's show when Callum showed up with a larger amount than she agreed to stash. Leyla eventually accepted the offer and stored the haul in her office.
However, Matty Barton broke into Leyla's office at the end of the episode and stole the stash as he takes revenge on Suzy Merton. Viewers were gobsmacked by Matty's actions as a fan named Sally Young tweeted: "Matty has crossed the line and signed Leyla's death warrant!"
Matty used a key that Leyla left in a plant pot outside her office to break into the building. Other viewers following the show on Twitter were distracted by her casual security measures.
Doreen tweeted: "Leyla - bag of drugs and money left on the business premises - I know I leave the key in a plant pot for anyone to find"
Pam posted: "Why on earth would Leyla put the office key under a mat...ready for Matty to pounce...I need a large gin after this nonsense"
Michelle said: "How convenient Leyla not leaving her office secure knowing she has thousands of pounds worth of cocaine stashed in there. She would be guarding it with her life"
Mike posted: "And Leyla is thick to leave a bag of drugs like that in your work cupboard"
Andrew added: "How thick is Leyla, not only leaving the premises key in a pot next to the door, but not keeping the key to the locked cupboard with the drugs in on her."
Spartacus commented : "Darwin award goes to Leyla… looking after a mammoth amount of cocaine & you put the key to your office under a plant pot & the key to the cupboard on your desk…just wow!"
Kelly posted: "Putting the key in the plant pot outside"
