Emmerdale ‘s Jamie Tate has certainly not been a popular character on the ITV soap lately, and on Wednesday his wicked ways continued.
Fans saw the character leave Moira Dingle for dead in a hit and run, and then he tried to blame it on his former lover Belle.
Tonight, as Jamie was at his worst yet again, viewers slammed the character and said being a villain “didin’t suit him”.
One said: “#Emmerdale Jamie it don’t suit you the hard man act”.
While another wrote: “Jamie… such a muppet trying to play the hard man #Emmerdale”.

A third added: “Thing is Jamie’s character just isn’t set up to be a hard man… Doesn’t work for me #sorrynotsorry #Emmerdale”.
“They’ve completely changed Jamie’s character. It’s ridiculous #Emmerdale”, penned a fourth.
Fans recently saw Belle double-cross her ex and go to the police about his involvement in the car crash.
He was arrested for the incident, and since then, a chain of events has left Jamie struggling to cope.

At the end of Wednesday’s dramatic episode, Jamie had turned to drink in his time of trouble.
After hitting the bottle, the character stood up and suddenly took a tumble.
He hit his head and was seen lying unconscious on the carpet.

Will Jamie be okay after his painful fall?
Belle actress Eden Taylor-Draper hinted at more drama to come following the incident
She told What’s on TV: “I think Belle would be stupid to think he’d go down easily.
“He will have something up his sleeve but maybe something she doesn’t expect.”
