Chas didn't spot Paddy in the road

In last night’s episode of Emmerdale (Tuesday February 14, 2023), Chas and Mandy turned up at Skipdale Lodge to find Paddy.

Chas stayed for a while before driving home.

But now Emmerdale fans have spotted a huge blunder amidst Chas’ search for Paddy.

Chas and Mandy searched for Paddy

Last night, Chas and Mandy were told that Paddy had been staying at a local guesthouse – Skipdale Lodge.

The pair decided to put their differences aside and go out to search for him.

The owner of the lodge had told the Dingles on the phone that Paddy was polite but sad.

With this, Mandy and Chas turned up at the lodge but arrived to find that he had left.

The lodge owner told them that she tried her best to convince him to come back but she didn’t know when that would be.

The pair decided to wait for him and bonded over their experiences with Paddy.

Chas decided to eventually drive back home while Mandy stayed at the lodge in case Paddy turned up.

However, as Chas started up her engine, Paddy stood in the middle of the road, watching her head off.

He had been hiding from her.

When Chas left, Paddy turned away and walked in the opposite direction of the lodge.

Emmerdale fans spot huge Chas and Paddy blunder

After seeing Chas drive away while Paddy was in plain sight, Emmerdale fans have spotted a huge blunder.

They’re confused as to how Chas didn’t see Paddy as she was pulling out of the driveway.

One fan asked: “How did Chas not see Paddy when she was driving out he was in front of her.”

Another viewer tweeted: “How did she NOT see Paddy almost right in front of her?”

A third Emmerdale fan commented: “Good job Mandy and Chas aren’t in the police, Paddy hardly had a great hiding place at all but still not spotted at all.”

Will Paddy return home?

Emmerdale have confirmed that Paddy will return to the village in March.

However, when he does, he will say some veiled goodbyes to his loved ones.

He will then leave home once more with the intention of ending his own life.

This will be an important part of Paddy’s mental illness storyline.

But, will Paddy see the light at the end of the tunnel?
