Emmerdale fans all have the same complaint about David Metcalfe as downward spiral continues
EMMERDALE viewers were all left with the same complaint about David Metcalfe following tonight’s episode
The failed shopkeeper – who is played by actor Matthew Wolfenden in the ITV soap – has been going through severe financial issues for the last year.
He has now been forced, despite being bailed out by ex-girlfriend Victoria Sugden, to sell up his shop.
And not only that he’s had to put his cottage up for sale to clear his debts.
In tonight’s episode, reality had clearly sunk in for David and he began to search for a new job.
He was successful in bagging an interview as an assistant manager for a supermarket in Leeds.
It meant he would have to leave the village and his life behind, but he went for it anyway.
Unfortunately the hiring manager didn’t quite take to David and his string of failures – both personal and professional.
Rejected from the supermarket, David tried to put a brave face on.
With both his dad and son trying to cheer him up, by insisting that better things would be around the corner, David tried to feel upbeat.
But it was clear that he’s really struggling.
Despite this, some fans thought that David was acting childish after his own mistakes had been the cause of his downfall.
One wrote: “Who in their right mind would employ that childish waste of space David.”
A second said: “I’m not bothered about David’s drama tbh.”
Another added: “David is really getting on my nerves this is self inflicted.”
