Assisted suicide storyline causes concern

Emmerdale: Assisted suicide storyline causes concern | News | The Christian Institute: A paralysed character on Emmerdale [TV show in UK] is set to ask for help to kill himself in a controversial new assisted suicide storyline.

The contentious plot is likely to fuel fresh debates over the issue of assisted suicide and critics have accused the soap, which is watched by eight million people, of chasing ratings with the sensational plot. The storyline may also concern disability rights campaigners who have previously hit out at the push for assisted suicide saying: “We want help to live – not help to die.”
