Laurelâ€™s participation in Anthony story leaves Emmerdale fans fed-up: â€˜Itâ€™s so unnecessaryâ€™

Fans of Emmerdale have found themselves irritated by Laurel Thomas as she continues to make life more difficult for Ruby, Aaron and all involved in the murder of Anthony Fox. Laurel thought herself responsible for Anthony’s disappearance after belting him when he attacked Nicola in a self-righteous rage.

She and Nicola got the wrong end of the (candle)stick after he subsequently disappeared. She thought she’d inadvertently killed the old man, but the truth was far stranger than that – Ruby had (‘vertently) finished Anthony off after he’d been given a pasting by Aaron.

Laurel confesses to attacking Anthony in Emmerdale

Believing that she and Nicola were responsible for his disappearance, Laurel has been struggling with her guilt ever since. This almost led her to relapsing, even buying a bottle of booze to cope. She managed to resist drinking again, but this couldn’t assuage her feelings on the matter.

Ruby revealed the truth of the situation to Aaron last night, but that didn’t help Laurel’s conscience any. While Aaron, Ruby and Caleb got to the bottom of things, Laurel handed herself into the police.

To many, this was the final straw.

Emmerdale fans slam Laurel as she confesses to the police

As last night’s episode aired, fans took to social media to share their dismay at Laurel’s behaviour – a distraction from the more pressing matter of Ruby‘s abuse and the subsequent murder.

“This Laurel/Nicola part of this storyline feels like such an unnecessary addition!!!” wrote one frustrated fan.

“In true Emmerdale fashion, they have turned the focus on laurel and Aaron in RUBYS storyline,” said another.

“Laurel, Anthony walked or should I say staggered out of your house alive, why would you think heâ€™s dead – he is, I know but these Nico and Laurel feel shoehorned and completely unneeded!” wrote a third.

“Laurel is getting on my nerves,” a fourth agreed.

The soap seems to be struggling with what to do with Laurel at the moment. Has her inclusion in this particular story been a misstep?

Opinion: Soap doesnâ€™t know what to do with Laurel – change needs to happen

Laurel is not having the best of times recently on Emmerdale as she’s been worrying that she killed Anthony following her attack on him.

She hit him over the head with a candlestick and has been struggling with what she did ever since (she’s literally forgetting that Anthony was attacking Nicola… but okay!)

Now, she’s considering handing herself into the police and has been tempted to turn to the bottle. And, it just seems like the same storyline again and again…

She isn’t coping well (Credit: ITV)

Laurel Thomas’ predicament in Emmerdale

Laurel was an unlikely hero a couple of weeks ago as she rushed in to help a friend in need by whacking Anthony on the head with a candlestick after witnessing him attacking Nicola.

Anthony stumbled off with a head wound, with Laurel and Nicola teaming up to clean up the crime scene. But, Laurel was unable to clear thoughts of Anthony out of her mind though.

Even though it was basically self-defence and she has no idea whether she actually killed Anthony (which we know she didn’t), Laurel has been debating whether to go to the police and hand herself in.

She’s been struggling with the idea so much that she’s thought about turning to drink again. We think we’ve seen this one before…

But, is this all that’s left for Laurel now? Have storylines run out for her?

Oh, Laurel (Credit: ITV)

Opinion: Is there anything else left for Laurel?

Recently, Laurel turned to Marlon in her hour of need. She looked for his support as she considered turning to the bottle.

This week, she’s come very close to letting the alcohol touch her lips again. And, it’s all a bit repetitive if we’re honest.

Not only is Laurel’s current predicament doing our head in (seriously, why is she soooo stressed about something that was very clearly self-defence?), but she’s just been a tad annoying for quite some time.

Her storylines seem to consist of her either cheating or drinking and it almost seems as though the direction of the character has been lost.

Of course, Laurel’s been around in the village for many years and can’t always be at the centre of every storyline. But, when Laurel has a storyline, it’s usually the same one she’s had for years just recycled.

Surely, there must be something, anything else to give to Laurel. She’s a great classic character who has just become predictable as time has gone on. We’d love to see her with something a bit more exciting this year!

Laurel set for drinking relapse after Anthony attack, fans predict

Emmerdale fans have predicted that Laurel Thomas will hit the bottle again following the latest drama with Anthony Fox.

Laurel’s alcohol addiction developed in 2015 following a string of traumatic events.

While she mainly has it under control, fans are predicting her guilt over the attack on Anthony will cause her to relapse.

Laurel’s alcohol problem in Emmerdale

Following a string of events, including a carjacking at the hands of Ross Barton and the death of her partner Marlon’s ex wife Donna, Laurel turned to alcohol to help her cope.

After a short break away, Laurel promised Marlon she’d stop drinking. But this wasn’t the case. One particularly bad scene saw Laurel add vodka to her orange juice at breakfast, which young April then consumed.

Another episode saw Laurel pass out and choke on her own vomit while looking after April and Arthur. Her drinking also saw her lose her job and catch an STI after a one night stand.

Her addiction was revisited in 2018 after she had an argument with partner Bob, and then again in 2021 following the termination of her baby.

Fans fear Laurel will start drinking again in Emmerdale

After hitting Anthony over the head with a candlestick, Laurel has been feeling guilty and fans fear she could be heading towards a relapse.

“Laurel is heading towards another relapse if she isn’t careful,” wrote one fan on X. “How long until Laurelâ€™s back on the sauce?,” asked another fan.Â

A third viewer said: “…and Laurel to hit the bottle.” A fourth fan added: “Our floral laurel is going to relapse, I can’t cope.”

Over on Instagram, a fifth fan begged: “Please don’t hit the voddy, Laurel.”

But, we know that Laurel’s been struggling even before the whole Anthony situation after she leant on Marlon for support, so could this be the thing that tips her over the edge and into a relapse?

1. Laurel seeks guidance

The start of the week saw Laurel hit Anthony over the head with a candlestick in a bid to save Nicola, after she discovered he wasn’t trusted around kids.

Though he walked away – with a bad head injury – he was murdered by someone else and so he failed to turn back up.

Now as Laurel is convinced she is responsible for the vile man’s disappearance, she struggles to cope.

Knowing there could be only one place for her to go, Laurel turns to her religion and seeks guidance on what to do next.

Will Steph get any answers? (Credit: ITV)

2. Steph’s suspicious

Steph may be the only person who cares about Anthony’s disappearance, but that’s purely because she doesn’t know the horrible truth.

However, she makes it her mission to find out who knows where he is. And so when she notices a tense atmosphere between Caleb and Ruby, she asks if they know anything.

What will their response be? And will Steph ever discover that Anthony is dead?

3. Evidence hides in plain sight

Last night’s episode saw Aaron beat Anthony up and leave him. And when he returned, the man was dead.

Anthony’s very bloody tooth still lays on the floor in the Depot, waiting to be discovered.

With people in and out of there all the time, will anyone notice it? And if so, who will it be?
