Fans of Emmerdale have slammed last night\u2019s episode of the soap (Monday, October 7) for its many \u2018cringe\u2019 plot holes \u2013 as sneaky Tom King attempted to cover his tracks by destroying the tablet which was full of evidence of his own wrongdoing.<\/p>

Sneaking into Butlers Farm \u2013 after first menacing little Isaac \u2013 Tom stole back his tablet. At home, in the garden, he then destroyed the incriminating device<\/a> \u2013 first stomping on it (rather ineffectually) and then smashing it to bits with a rock.<\/p>\n

Tom\u2019s latest act only succeeded in confusing viewers, who found the scene full of plot holes and technological inaccuracies.<\/p>\n

Emmerdale fans question soap logic as Tom destroys tablet<\/h2>\n

Writing on a Reddit discussion thread, fans shared their frustration, with one viewer saying: \u2018Why on earth did the tablet start SMOKING when he was smashing it up?? Entire episode was baffling start to finish.\u2019<\/p>\n

Another viewer agreed, pointing out: \u2018Smashing a tablet doesn\u2019t delete data. This is becoming a joke now. Have they forgotten about the cloud? It\u2019s actually cringe at this point.\u2019<\/p>
