Matty and Moira plan a trip
Moira previously received news of a cancellation at the hospital and was told she could have her operation the following day. However, that same day, she received a call from Debbie Dingle informing her of Zak’s death.
With the family mourning the Dingle patriarch, Moira decided to cancel the operation in order to support husband Cain and the rest of the Dingle family.
This week, a new date is given. Then, next week, despite reservations, Matty and Moira decide to go ahead with their plan to go and visit Adam. But Cain is surprised to hear this news and struggles at the prospect of Moira going away.

They are both painfully aware that Moira’s trip away could be a rehearsal for a more permanent goodbye should the operation not be successful. Can they allay each other’s fears?

In Emmerdale tonight (Monday, October 21), Tina Dingle returned and dropped a huge bombshell, causing Mandy to be fearful.
Tina returned to the village last week during Zak Dingle’s funeral. Her stay was short, however, as she was hauled off by the police for breaching her release conditions.
But now, a tag-free Tina is back. Here’s what else happened in Emmerdale tonight.

Tina dropped a bombshell
As the Dingles attempted to get on with their lives following Zak’s funeral, Mandy received an unwanted visitor at the salon.
Tina greeted Vinny and questioned him about his love life. After he left, Mandy shouted at Tina that she’d told her to stay away.
Tina snapped: “You don’t get to tell me where I can and can’t go, especially now I’ve got interests round here.”
Suspecting that Tina was after the house again, Mandy reiterated that Tina isn’t included in Zak’s will and can’t have a share of the house, but Tina replied: “Prove it. It belongs to family. And I’m family. And who says we’re just talking about the house?”
This caused a nervous reaction from Mandy, as Tina continued: “I’ve come for everything that’s mine. Vinny is such a sweet boy. Do you know, it makes me sad, thinking about everything I’ve missed out on. What’s mine is mine. My house. My son.”
While Vinny knows Mandy is not his biological mum, he is unaware of his true parentage. Will Tina reveal all to him?

Caleb’s lies were exposed in Emmerdale tonight
Caleb tried to convince Ruby to let him deal with her mum’s will as he desperately tried to keep the secret that Ruby’s mum had given him £100,000 before she died. Ruby was adamant she wanted to be involved though.
During the reading of the will, Ruby was incensed to discover that Helen had left everything to Ruby’s daughter Stephanie and questioned whether Helen and Steph had been meeting up.
“I did everything to keep them apart. I didn’t want any of my mum’s poison rubbing off on her,” Ruby remarked, before leaving to get some air.
Caleb then pleaded ignorance when the solicitor asked him about the mystery payment from Helen’s bank account, Caleb tried to keep this from Ruby, but the solicitor bumped into Ruby in the village and mentioned the £100,000.
Back at home, Ruby screamed at Caleb to “Stop lying to me,” before he eventually relented and admitted that he had the money and wanted to invest it in the haulage yard. Ruby was angry and chastised Caleb for never being honest.

Belle was angry at Mandy’s revelation
Feeling down about not visiting her dad during his last days, Mandy tried to make Belle feel better but let it slip that Zak had been aware about her situation with Tom.
Belle was furious when Mandy shared that Cain and Sam had told Zak about Tom’s abuse. Belle hit out at Sam, but soon calmed down when Sam explained that Zak sensed something was up and they couldn’t lie to him. Sam shared that Zak wanted to “rip Tom’s head off.”
Later, Sam stuck a handmade cross into Zak’s burial site engraved with the words “Our dad”. There was a nice moment as Sam chatted to his dad about the mundane things going on in the village.
Elsewhere in Emmerdale tonight
Gabby was worried that Mandy thought she was a snob. She was right to share that view as Mandy told Belle that Gabby was from another planet.
Elsewhere, Jimmy reminisced about his brothers, the haulage company and Edna (!) Will told him that even if he sells up to Caleb, he’ll always have the memories. But will Jimmy be able to let go?

Last week in Emmerdale, the Dingles got a big surprise when Tina Dingle returned during Zak Dingle‘s funeral. Jacqueline Pirie, who played Tina during the 90s, has responded to the role being recast.
Now played by Brassic star Samantha Power, Tina caused a stir with her cutting remarks and eagerness to get her hands on the Dingle house.
But viewers were left wondering why the original actress hadn’t returned and now Jacqueline has had her say.

Tina Dingle returns
During Thursday’s episode, the Dingles came together to say goodbye to patriarch Zak. Returning to the house to bury Zak, the family were shocked to see Tina.
Tina, who is the daughter of Zak and Nellie Dingle, hadn’t been seen in the Dales since 1996. But it emerged that she has stayed in contact with Mandy over the years.
The returning Dingle went in for the kill as she proceeded to insult her family – labelling most of them “ex-cons” and calling her brother Sam, thick.
For the latter crime, Sam’s partner Lydia pushed Tina into the mud, resulting in cheers from the rest of the family.
It also came to light that Tina was after a share of the Dingle property, but Lydia informed her that the house had been left to Belle, Sam and Cain.
A furious Tina ended up being carted away by police, as she was wearing an ankle tag and was in breach of her release conditions.

Taking to X, Jacqueline wrote: “So many questions regarding Tina Dingle’s return. Great character, great show. I wish @sampower_sam all the best, I loved playing her, I’m sure she will too, great cast to be a part of  and, no… they didn’t ask me #emmerdale#tinadingle#dingle.”
Samantha Power responded to the tweet and wrote: “Thanks so much Jacqueline! Very kind xxx.”
Fans added their disappointment at the news, with one writing: “No disrespect to the actor taking over here at all, but if it’s a big return (one off) like this – as a fan we all really want to see the original actor – more impact – Jacqueline you were amazing. Sad that you didn’t get asked to at least do a cameo.”
Another fan added: “I assumed they’d asked you, can’t understand their reasons as to why they didn’t as it would have made much more sense.”

Samantha Power speaks out
Asked if she ever watched the original Tina, Samantha replied: “Yes! I absolutely do remember Jaqueline who played Tina. She was absolutely fantastic, I remember her character vividly. So I am very lucky to get the chance to pick up where she left off.
“My husband said he had never known me to be this nervous! My first scene on my first day was at the graveside with all the Dingles. That’s a lot, right? Luckily everyone was so nice and welcoming.
“I have to say a special shout out to Lisa Riley, the nicest human being. When I met her at the screen test I felt so safe. She couldn’t have been more giving and supportive and encouraging and that continued daily on set. I loved working with her.”

Tina Dingle showed up at Zak’s graveside (Credit: ITV)
1. Zak Dingle’s funeral
Earlier in the week, Cain read out Zak Dingle‘s final wishes. They included the instruction that his funeral be a party to end all parties. That is certainly what we’ve seen so far.
From Rhinestone Cowboy blaring out of the van and a drum being beat through the village, Zak’s funeral got off to a loud start.
In the Woolpack, friends and family danced and sung along to pop classics from Steps and B*Witched. Others shared their memories of Zak.
The Dingles later returned to the house, where Zak wanted to be buried. They were surprised by an appearance from Zak’s daughter Tina Dingle, who decided to insult them all. Labelling most of her family ex-cons, asking sister Belle who she was and calling Sam thick, she certainly wasn’t on the charm offensive.
In tonight’s episode, the send off continues at the Woolpack. Zak was a popular man, with most of the village wishing to pay their respects.

The siblings toast Zak
Back at Wishing Well Cottage, siblings Sam, Belle and Cain finally unite. After Cain struggled yesterday with being the new head of the family, Belle and Sam managed to bring him back.
Together, they raise a glass to their late father, thus bringing to a close the week dedicated to Zak Dingle, following actor Steve Halliwell’s death last year.
Fans have praised the ITV soap for taking its time with Zak’s death storyline and allowing Steve’s family to grieve first.

During Thursday’s episode of Emmerdale (Thursday October 17) Tina Dingle made a dramatic return to the soap.
Previously played by Jacqueline Pirie, Tina is now played by Brassic star Samantha Power. Appearing at Zak Dingle‘s graveside, Tina didn’t receive a warm welcome from the other Dingles.
But is she back for long and can she be trusted?

Who is Tina Dingle in Emmerdale?
Tina Dingle first appeared in Emmerdale in December 1994. She is the youngest daughter of Zak and Nellie Dingle.
Her most famous storyline saw her plot a long-winded revenge scheme, where she faked a relationship with Luke McAllister and even pretended to be pregnant with his child. This lasted until they made it down the aisle and were about to say I Do, before she cruelly informed him it was all a lie and she was just avenging her brother Ben’s death – for which she held Luke responsible.
Luke went on to kidnap her and take her on a wild drive through the village. Tina managed to jump out of the van moments before it crashed, killing Luke.
Tina was later involved in a love triangle with Frank Tate and Steve Marchant. She left in December 1996, determined not to end up like Frank’s wife Kim.
There has been the odd mention of Tina since, but she failed to return for big events such as Belle’s birth or her brother Butch’s funeral.

Tina Dingle’s return – can she be trusted?
During Zak Dingle’s funeral, a woman was seen taking pictures of Wishing Well Cottage. When the Dingles returned to the house to bury Zak, it was revealed that the woman was Tina Dingle and she’s after a share of the house.
She proceeded to dig out her family members and didn’t even know who her half-sister Belle was. Referring to the majority as “ex-cons” and calling her brother Sam thick, she didn’t exactly make a good impression.
Speaking about the character, Samantha Power said: “I absolutely do remember Jaqueline who played Tina. She was absolutely fantastic, I remember her character vividly! So I am very lucky to get the chance to pick up where she left off!”
On whether Tina can be trusted, she said: “She is feisty, bolshy, selfish and she always seems to have an agenda and won’t stop at anything to get what she wants! She has no filters and she will literally do anything to make sure she gets her way, including her claim to the house.
“Tina is really good at manipulating people, especially the Dingles, so I don’t think any of them are safe. She is not one to be trusted! I loved it!”
How long is she staying for?
Sadly, it looks as if Tina’s return is just temporary. For now, at least.
On if she’d like to return, Samantha said: “Definitely! It has been a very special job! Genuinely, it was the nicest job! Everyone was so kind, generous, encouraging and welcoming across all the departments!Â
“Emmerdale is an amazing place to work and Tina is just fantastic to play so I would love the opportunity to come back and cause more mischief.”
Emmerdale Insider has reached out to Emmerdale for confirmation on how many episodes Samantha will appear in.

Samantha Power on landing the role of Tina Dingle in Emmerdale
Samantha has revealed that she was nervous about appearing in Emmerdale, saying: “My husband said he had never known me to be this nervous! My first scene on my first day was at the graveside with ALL the Dingles! That’s a lot right!
“Luckily everyone was so nice and welcoming! I have to say a special shout out to Lisa Riley, the nicest human being! When I met her at the screen test I felt so safe, she couldn’t have been more giving and supportive and encouraging and that continued daily on set! I loved working with her.
“On my first day it was Zak’s funeral, not only were they saying goodbye to Zak but also to the legendary Steve Halliwell and so to be there on location in the village I felt extremely honoured to be a part of that.”
On whether there were any memorable moments, Samantha shared: “There was one specific scene with Lisa where I was face down in a pool of mud. That was extremely memorable and I loved every second of it. There was also a scene which involves an explosion which was so impressive…”
Sounds like Tina’s visit may be short, but extremely exciting.
