Last night’s Emmerdale shocked viewers with it’s graphic portrayal of the death of tetraplegic Jackson Walsh.
We had been expecting soft music and the young man passing off into a peaceful sleep, but what was aired was so much more upsetting and real that we were both impressed and horrified at the same time.
Twitter went mad with comments about Jackson’s death as the scenes aired and as Aaron and Hazel said their tragic goodbye to their son and lover, fans admitted to being in floods of tears.
The worst moment for us was when Hazel broke down, sobbing and in the end admitting that she couldn’t give the lethal combination of drugs to Jackson. Silently crying, Aaron then took over and bravely told his partner:
‘You have changed my life,’ before kissing him and holding the glass to his lips.
In the end, Jackson died in the arms of his mum and if you missed it, you can watch the dramatic scenes in the video below, but we warn you, it’s not easy viewing!
