EMMERDALE fans all have the same complaint about David Metcalfe.
The shopkeeper – who is played by actor Matthew Wolfenden in the ITV soap – has been struggling financially for months.
He has been flitting in and out of the country, leaving his village shop under the care of his student son Jacob.
But because of the pandemic, David faced financial ruin.
He was saved by girlfriend Victoria Sugden after she sold her million-pound land inheritance to Moira Dingle – but in a bizarre twist, he is back to being debt-ridden and desperate.
Viewers have watched recently as David was caught speeding while out on a delivery.
He tried to get Victoria to illegally take his points, but she rejected it.
Instead he blamed her anyway and has been lying about it all – putting her in a very dodgy position.
And tonight the storyline dragged on for even more as David crept about hiding letters for Victoria about the conviction he framed her for.
Even when Victoria and Jacob came up with a plan to sort out all of his problems, David still didn’t confess.
Viewers are sick of it and want the storyline axed.
One wrote: “When are they going to get rid of David.”
A second said: “I’m sick of seeing victorias horrendous face. Boring storyline . What’s it got to do with her anyway. Time her & david left. No decent storylines left for them. Get rid of them & get some new interesting people.”
Another added: “Why does David continue to be a thing though? If he didn’t swan off on multiple holidays a year his business might not be in the shit.”
