Fans of The Archers have demanded that Rob Titchener gets proper justice now that it's been revealed he's actually alive.
Listeners have expressed their feelings on the plot via Twitter, with many insisting that the villain should face legal repercussions for abusing his long-suffering wife Helen.
Sunday night's episode of the BBC Radio 4 soap left everyone believing that Helen had killed her abuser husband after fatally stabbing him.
However, the most recent visit to Ambridge saw events take a new twist, as it transpired that Rob was actually alive, albeit in a life-threatening condition.
As Rob was diagnosed with a collapsed lung, fans were left frustrated as Helen was arrested for her actions, with many hoping that she would use the opportunity to speak up about her suffering.
