Fans of Emmerdale have worried that Chas Dingle‘s cancer could have returned as they spotted a ‘worrying sign’ in last night’s episode of the soap. This came in the aftermath of the ice lake crash, in which Chas was injured as she fell on the ice.

Later, in the hospital, she appeared to struggle with pain – clutching her back as Charity found her there in the corridor. She’d just had a bad fall, of course, but some have wondered whether it might be a symptom of something worse.

Cancer has returned for Chas, Emmerdale fans feared

Writing on social media as last night’s episode aired, fans shared their thoughts on Chas’s fresh pain. And some wondered whether there might be more to worry about than impact from the crash.

“Chas potentially still has cancer and it’s spread to her spine (this is the second time in a week she’s complained about her back),” worried one fan.

“Either she’s more badly injured from the crash than she’s letting on, or it’s something more sinister, possibly linked to her cancer….” said another.
