Emmerdale viewers were horrified when they spotted an “unhygienic” blunder at the Woolpack pub.
Kim Tate (Claire King) offered some advice to Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson) on Wednesday (March 6). Mary was caught in a tricky situation with on-off love interest Suzy Merton (Martelle Edinborough) as she asked her if there was still anything between them during work hours.
Caught off guard, Mary struggled to answer and ended up not telling the truth about her real feelings, before heading back to the kitchen to continue cooking lunch for all the village customers. Looking unhappy at the unfortunate ending for the pair, Kim then managed to walk right past Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) and followed Mary into the kitchen.
Kim wanted to know why Mary hadn’t told the truth, and encouraged her friend to be honest and open about her feelings. But fans were left wondering why Kim had been allowed into a cooking area without wearing a uniform.

What’s more, they questioned why Kim, who might not have even washed her hands before stepping into the kitchen, was even involved in the storyline. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one irritated viewer wrote: “# Emmerdale so anyone can just walk into the Woolpack’s kitchen really hygienic”, reports OK!.
“What’s it got to do with Kim? ” another person demanded in annoyance. “Why would Chas allow her to go marching right into the kitchen? Very hygienic. #Emmerdale.”
