Emmerdale has been hit with more than 200 complaints from angry ITV viewers due to the ongoing Meena Jutlia storyline.
TV watchdog Ofcom , which handles complaints about radio and TV shows in Britain, received more than 150 complaints in relation to the ITV soap last week.
The broadcast regulator has confirmed that 65 more complaints have been made this week in relation to the episode which aired on January 12 which featured scenes involving serial killer Meena (Paige Sandhu).
In the episode, evil Meena put her plan in place to murder her sister Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker) and Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson).
Liam Cavanagh (Johnny McPherson) started to become worried about Meena’s mental health and when he saw her wrist injury, he told her he knew about her faking her pregnancy and miscarriage.

Meena later went on to accuse Liam of sexually harassing her.
As the ordeal continued, it looked as though Liam would become Meena’s next victim, but the killer was interrupted by an arriving police officer.
