EMMERDALE fans have been left stunned by Lydia Hart making an inadvertent joke about self-pleasure.

She meant to Paul would “get whacked” as in the Mafia’s way of dealing with their problems.
It all came about because Mandy had planned an elaborate proposal for partner Paul at the pub.
But not wanting him to know what she was planning she was less than polite when asking him to meet her.
“Flipping heck Paul will you just do one,” she said.
“Right Paul just meet me for dinner, there’s something I need to ask you. Paul, one o’clock, Woolpack, be there.”
Lydia told her: “Poor fella, he’s terrified. I don’t think he’s guessed a proposal of marriage. If anything quite the opposite.
“You did get a bit Don Dingleone on him, be there one o’clock, you’re going to get whacked off’.”
A straight-faced Mandy told her: “I think it’s just whacked, Lyds.”
Viewers were in hysterics though.
