Dawn also gears up for her wedding to Joe Tate
Next week in Emmerdale will be filled with more secrets, revealed secrets and complications in the ITV soap. Serena explains everything to Robert about John, Charity opens up to another Dr Todd survivor, and Kev is troubled by his past.
It’s never quiet in the Dales, and over the last few weeks viewers have watched some very difficult storylines unfold. Charity finally told the truth to Mackenzie Boyd over Todd’s sexual assault and blackmail, as well as baby Leyla’s true parentage.
Dr Todd’s dead body was also shown in a flashforward, but her actual death has not yet appeared on screen, leaving viewers wondering who did the deed.
Meanwhile, Kev tried his hardest to prove he was a changed man as he wanted to start a relationship with his son, Lewis. However, he struggled to retain his calm when Ross Barton and Nicola King framed him from robbing the cafe.
Here’s what’s coming up next in the Dales…
Serena gets close to Ross
Kim discovers there has been an intruder at Home Farm, armed with a shotgun, she orders her tardy Head of Operations, Ross, to investigate and hands him a list of suspects. But Ross’ investigations get off to a bad start when he accuses Moira and she sends him packing. Soon he accuses Robert, leading to a physical fight with an enraged Aaron. Serena intervenes.
Once Ross has gone, Serena takes the opportunity to give Robert a full explanation about John and it is enough to persuade Robert to let her stay, despite Aaron’s continued wariness. Meanwhile up at Home Farm, Kim has discovered it was a USB stick that was taken.
With Robert still injured, Aaron offers Serena a job on the farm and soon she’s creating a situation to get Ross back in her orbit. Ross is flattered assuming it’s him she is interested in but what is her game?
Charity opens up to another survivor
Charity is left utterly defeated to learn the CPS won’t be pursuing Todd’s case due to a lack of evidence. Unwilling to let Todd get away with this, Mack and Vanessa begin to plot, believing they could perhaps uncover buried complaints at the hospital. Soon, Vanessa puts their plan in motion as she and Jacob meet privately with HR Rep Carol.
When Charity gets wind she’s heads to confront Vanessa but finds herself face to face with Helen, another of Todd’s victims. Helen doesn’t want to talk but when Charity quietly reveals how Todd raped her, it clearly strikes a chord with harrowed Helen. Will Charity get answers that can help her case?
Kev worries when someone from his past shows up
Claudette convinces Kev to keep his Café job. Nicola, secretly happy he quit, tries to persuade Vinny, Mandy, and Lewis it’s for the best, only for Kev to surprise everyone by asking for his job back.
Learning Lewis’s birthday is near, Kev attempts to make up for missed years with gifts, but his overeager approach unsettles Lewis, much to Ross’s concern. Kev’s stress mounts when his old friend Steve suddenly arrives, and he warns him not to jeopardise his new life.
Cain, Graham and Kyle go camping
Cain is holding onto hope for his dog Monty’s health and seeks a second vet opinion, reasoning if radiotherapy can help him, it can surely help Monty too. Cain’s obsession with making Monty better causes him to be emotionally distant from Kyle and Moira. Kyle is struggling at Cadets and because Cain is dismissive about cadets, Kyle is too hurt to ask for help.
Moira’s attempts to reach out and to temper Cain’s expectations for Monty, go nowhere. When Cain learns the stark truth that Monty’s tumours are inoperable, it’s too much to take in. Soon, to avoid alone time with Moira, Cain takes Kyle camping, but is angered when Kyle invites Graham.
As the three set off on this ill-fated camping trip, Cain’s tensions with Graham escalate until Cain snaps, leading Kyle to chastise his father. Cain storms off. As darkness draws in, Cain falls down a hillside and traps his leg.
Elsewhere in the village
Dawn is thrilled to finally have her wedding dress. Dawn’s clearly not happy about Billy dating Gabby. Whilst Gabby distracts Billy so she doesn’t have to eat the meal he’s prepared for her.
