Emmerdale viewers were disappointed during the latest episode as they worked out the next big storyline.
During Monday night’s show (March 20), eagle-eyed viewers quickly noticed that Alex Moore appeared excited when he realised that a medical supply was making its way to the village pharmacy.
After overhearing Manpreet Sharma’s conversation with the suppliers, Alex later made a phone call of his own to a mystery person about the drugs.

But as viewers are still recovering from the latest drug related story involving Leyla Cavanagh, fans took to Twitter to complain.
One social media user wrote: “Oh great another drugs storyline no doubt now that Alex heard Manpreet.
“Don’t they realise drug storyline are repetitively dull even more so when it’ll involve even duller Alex, Manpreet, Charles and Naomi?”
Another said: “Alex gonna knick the drugs from the Dr’s. Another drugs story to go with the 40000000000 other drug stories they’ve churned out.”
While a third penned: “This Alex robbing the drugs isn’t in any way a predictable plot.”

Although it looks like he’s trying to turn over a new leaf, Alex has quite the history in the village, and away from it, with his criminal past and previous drug dealings.
After leaving prison recently, he claimed to be on the right path and started a romance with Naomi Walters and finally seems to be getting the approval of her dad Charles Anderson last week.
But as viewers are already aware that Alex may be up to no good, they seem to think his relationship with Naomi is not genuine.
Taking to Twitter to comment on the pair’s relationship, one fan said: “Can we talk about how Naomi has known this Alex a week…why she carrying on like they’ve been together for years?”
According to ITV, Naomi will grow concerned later on this week when Alex is spotted with a mystery woman, and is seen handing her money.
In addition to this, he will also be seen at the pub when he’s meant to be at a job interview.
But covering his tracks, Alex manages to win her over with a lie.
