Emmerdale fans were left baffled during this evening’s episode as Marlon Dingle debuted an extra-curly head of hair.
The Yorkshire chef is known for his trademark curly locks, but this evening’s barnet caught viewers’ attention, as they suggested it was “out of control”.
Marlon, played by Mark Charnock, appeared in a scene in the village shop, chatting with Bob Hope, Luke Posner and David Metcalfe about Victoria Sugden.
The three locals urged newcomer Luke to reignite his romance with Vic, making it clear the two looked miserable since the split.
However, distracted viewers felt their eyes wandering to Marlon’s hair, as they took to their keyboards to weigh in on his new ‘do.
One said: “Blimey, Marlon Barnett is starting to get a bit out of control.”
“Marlon obviously missed a barbers on his holiday #emmerdale,” added a second.
And a third joked: “Does anyone else get reminded of chimney sweeps when they see Marlon’s Covid hairstyle? #Emmerdale.”
Marlon made it clear he was about to play matchmaker on this evening’s episode, as Luke insisted there was nothing more than friendship between himself and Vic.
Bob scoffed: “Who is he kidding? Anybody could see that him and Vic are made for each other.”
Making it clear he was cooking up an idea, Marlon replied: “Maybe we should do something…”
Though Bob was on board, David was quick to shut them down, insisting it would be a bad idea to meddle in their relationship.
He snapped: “No, interfering in peoples lives?”
However, with a mischievous look on his face, Marlon suggested he was about to shoot Cupid’s arrow.
Are Luke and Vic set for another romance?
Emmerdale airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7pm on ITV.
