  • Inside fan theory Caleb is who killed Nate – and John’s just a big red herring

    Inside fan theory Caleb is who killed Nate – and John’s just a big red herring

    In Emmerdale this week, a mystery body was seen at the bottom of the lake. Fans are convinced the body belongs to Nate Robinson, and a new theory believes Caleb killed him.

    While on a night out in a limousine, stand in driver Charity veered off the road when her son Noah staggered out in front of the vehicle.

    During the escape, a body was seen in the water. While we haven’t yet discovered who the body belongs to, fans have been speculating.

    Body in the water in Emmerdale

    After Charity swerved the limo off the road, it ended up submerged in a frozen lake.

    Charity, Chas, Liam, Vanessa, Kerry, Leyla and Amy made their way from the limo across the ice one by one, while an already dead Suzy was left in the limo as it sunk.

    Unfortunately for Amy Barton, the ice started to crack as she approached safety and she sunk into the lake.

    While she was underwater, she came face to face with another body. While viewers didn’t see whose body it was, we did see that the mystery person was wearing a friendship bracelet similar to the one little Frankie made for Amy.

    Viewers were quick to assume the body belonged to Frankie’s dad Nate Robinson, who left the Dales last year for a job in Scotland. However, fans are now thinking he didn’t leave after all, and instead has been in the lake the whole time.

    Fan theory believes Caleb killed Nate

    Taking to social media, fans were quick to share their theories. “I think John is a red herring. We’re meant to think it’s him. I maybe think Caleb. He’s the only person in the village who really had a grievance with Nate. Plus he’s nasty and violent when he’s angry.”

    A second fan agreed, writing: “Caleb hated Nate, but couldn’t go for him because of Cain. That actually makes sense.”

    A third fan said: “Caleb. I think Nate ran into him as he was leaving the village and a fight broke out (about Tracy) and Nate died. I’m not saying it was murder, maybe manslaughter but either way Caleb killed him and let his family (Cain and Frankie) believe he was still alive which is so cruel.”

    Another fan added: “Caleb is a hot head that had an affair with another guy’s wife, maybe he killed Nate.” While a fifth fan echoed the thought, writing: “Murderer is Caleb after his affair with Tracey was found out.”

    A sixth fan referenced the flashforward scenes which were shown earlier this year, in which Caleb was seen in hospital. They speculated: “People saying the body is Nate – that would explain Cain crying at a graveside and Caleb in hospital – did Caleb kill Nate and Cain finds out?? …. it’s intense, Emmerdale!”

  • Worried Cain and Moira are over for good? Natalie J Robb hints that they’re unbreakable

    Worried Cain and Moira are over for good? Natalie J Robb hints that they’re unbreakable

    The future currently doesn’t look good for fan-favourite Emmerdale couple Cain and Moira, as she finally found out about his one night stand.

    Viewers will (unfortunately) recall when Moira was having brain surgery, Cain went and slept with Ruby, his sister-in-law. And up until recently, everyone hoped the secret would stay quiet forever. 

    But right before Anthony died, he revealed the truth to Caleb. Who then plotted to have Cain sent down for murder, and called him out right before the limo crash. With fans terrified we may lose Cain and Moira, Natalie J Robb hinted that may not be the case.

    What does the future hold in Emmerdale for Cain and Moira?

    Last night’s episode (February 18) saw Cain finally tell his wife what happened when she was on the operating table. And she looked rightfully shocked.

    Cain and Moira have been absolutely adored by fans for years. And while their marriage has been rocked by cheating scandals and temporary break-ups, this betrayal might just be the one that ruins them.

    However, in a twist, Natalie J Robb, who plays Moira, has revealed she is rooting for them to go all the way. Even after everything they have been through.

    Speaking at a press event last year, she said: “I think it is really important that they stay together.

    “Marriages go through things. There is temptation. There are things that can happen. If everybody just gave up after the first hurdle of marriage, people would just not get married now. It’s so easy to get out now.”

    Natalie continued: “A lot of people do go through things. Affairs, different things, financial problems. There could be lots of things that happen that pull you apart. But then things can push you together again. Which I think is nice to play.”

    Fans fear we are losing them

    While Natalie seems to be very much team Coira, Cain’s latest actions have fans worried we might have reached the end of the road.

    Taking to X after last night’s episode, one fan wrote: “Watching Cain’s guilt of telling Moira about Ruby is the most heartbreaking thing I have had to see in all of their relationship over the years.”

    Another added: “Cain having to tell Moira that he cheated with Ruby is the most devastating part of this whole week.”

    Exactly how Moira reacts is yet to be seen. But we’re sure fans will be in for more emotional scenes between the pair.

  • Why Amy definitely won’t die in the Emmerdale lake crash

    Why Amy definitely won’t die in the Emmerdale lake crash

    The lake limo crash in Emmerdale has had us gripped this week with lives on the line – but we’re pretty certain Amy Barton is not one of those who will die.

    Amy is very much at risk, and one thing we know is she is one of four people in an ambulance being taken to hospital. One of those four has been declared dead.

    Although some fans are certain Amy has met her maker, we’re certain she hasn’t – let us explain why.

    Emmerdale tonight saw one more death

    On Tuesday February 18, the aftermath of the lake limo crash continued. With Chas, Liam, Vanessa and Tracy safely away from the vehicle, Amy had fallen under the ice. Tracy risked her own life to go back and pull her out from the water. With hypothermia setting in, Amy lost consciousness and when the ambulance crew arrived she was unresponsive.

    Meanwhile, Liam had had a nasty bump to the head. He was lying in Chas’ arms, struggling to stay awake. She begged him to keep with her, but he slowly fell asleep.

    In the limo, Leyla revealed to Kerry glass had impaled her side in the crash. She too was struggling to keep her eyes open. Kerry refused to leave her and despite having a broken foot herself, started to drag her across the ice. When Kerry almost fell in, Vanessa went to help and pulled Leyla to safety. But was it too late?

    Also at risk was Noah, who Charity had found in the woodland, collapsed to the floor. He was taken in an ambulance, but we are pretty sure he survives and is revealed to have been spiked.

    So with these lives on the line, when the paramedic in one ambulance announced “one patient dead on arrival” we all wondered who it was.

    Why we’re sure Amy will not die in Emmerdale

    Although some believe Amy has met a watery fate, we think there is one very good reason she will definitely survive: what she saw under the water.

    As Amy sank down to the depths, she was terrified to see a dead body. We only saw the hand, but what that hand showed us was a distinctive bracelet – just like the ones little Frankie made and just like the one her daddy, Nate Robinson, was wearing when he abruptly left the Dales and hasn’t been seen or heard from since.

    So we are pretty convinced Nate is under the water and Amy is the only one who knows about it. Therefore she HAS to survive so she can tell everyone. And then we’ve got a whole other storyline that looks into how he died.

    It all ties in to the flashforward that saw Cain weeping at a grave – Nate is his son, so it all adds up.

    And Amy is the key to moving this storyline forward, so there’s no way she’ll die. That just leaves Leyla and Liam…

  • Emmerdale fans can’t decide who died tonight – but it’s not looking good for Amy, Leyla and Liam

    Emmerdale fans can’t decide who died tonight – but it’s not looking good for Amy, Leyla and Liam

    Four unconscious Emmerdale faves were taken to hospital on Tuesday February 18, but one was declared dead on arrival – so who died tonight? We can’t decide and neither can fans.

    Amy, Leyla, Liam and Noah were all rushed to Hotten General for urgent treatment. Only Noah hadn’t been in the limo that crashed onto the ice – but he was the reason it crashed when Charity swerved to avoid him.

    After Charity got herself out of the car and found her son unconscious in the woods, she managed to call for help. But the emergency services arrived too late for one person. Who?

    Emmerdale confirms another death

    On Tuesday February 18, the drama after the limo lake crash continued. With Charity, Chas, Tracy, Vanessa and Liam all safely on the banks of the lake, Liam’s condition started to worsen. Chas tried to keep him awake and as warm as she could, but he had a bump to the head and was disorientated and clearly in a bad way.

    Meanwhile, Amy fell in the ice last night, where she discovered a dead body. She was fighting to get back up to the top, but couldn’t break through the ice again and started to sink down. Fortunately, Tracy risked her own life to rush back across the lake and pull her out.

    As Amy lay shivering on the embankment, hypothermia was clearly setting in. By the time the ambulances arrived, Kerry was craddling her daughter in her arms, but she was unconscious.

    In the limo, Leyla had remained silent about the glass that had cut her side. She finally told Kerry, who insisted she wouldn’t leave her behind and dragged her out. But with a broken foot, Kerry couldn’t save the both of them and when she almost fell through the ice, Vanessa rushed back across to drag Leyla to safety.

    However, Leyla was now unconscious and it isn’t looking good for her at all.

    As the ambulances finally arrived, the three in the worst condition were loaded in. Also taken away was Noah, who was unconscious as well – but no one knows what has happened to him.

    Just before the credits rolled, one of the paramedics radioed in to the hospital that one person was dead on arrival. But we don’t know who.

    Who died in Emmerdale tonight?

    So we know Amy, Liam, Leyla and Noah were in a critical condition. It looks like Noah will survive, given we know his storylines later in the week. So that leaves Amy, Liam and Leyla.

    Speculation was rife after the episode: “I wonder who it’s gonna be that goes? It’s between Liam, Leyla, Amy or Noah. I’m thinking it’s going to be Leyla as she was badly injured!” shared one viewer on social media.

    Other fans were more certain in their theories.

    “Amy has to be the one dead confirmed on arrival right?” said one. Another agreed: “I think Amy is sadly dead in the ice.”

    It isn't looking at all good for Leyla (Credit: ITV)

    But more popular than Amy were Leyla and Liam: “I fear Leyla has just died,’we have one patient, dead on arrival’, my heart is physically in pieces, I have adored Leyla for so many years it’s gonna hurt so much to lose her.”

    Someone else said: “The way Leyla is prob gonna die (bc Roxy has left) and I’m not ready to lose her.”

    “Pretty certain it will be Liam and Leyla that die,” shared another.

    Liam also proved a popular choice: “Have a feeling Liam is going to be the next one not to survive this limousine accident,” said one. “I reckon Liam too, because Chas never gets any happiness does she?” agreed another.

  • I’m a Cain Dingle superfan but there’s no redeeming him after Ruby affair – OPINION

    I’m a Cain Dingle superfan but there’s no redeeming him after Ruby affair – OPINION

    Cain Dingle in Emmerdale is a hard man to love. And yet, love him, I do. I’ve stuck with him through the bad times – his awful treatment of teenage Amy, seducing Ollie Reynolds, his  tendency to punch first and think later… I could go on.

    But after years of forgiving him for some pretty heinous behaviour, I think I’m finally done.

    I can’t help thinking there’s no redeeming Cain Dingle after he slept with his brother Caleb’s wife, Ruby.

    Cain Dingle – the bad boy of Emmerdale

    Of course we know that Cain’s had his troubles. In the past he could be, let’s be honest, a nasty piece of work.

    But we sort of understood it. He had a terrible childhood with an abusive father in Shadrach and an absent mother.

    Then he came to Emmerdale and fell head over heels for Angie Reynolds. Not only was Angie married,  but she was older than Cain, had two teenage kids AND she was a policewoman. We know.

    Their affair was hot but Angie eventually went back to her husband and broke Cain’s heart.

    He took revenge by seducing her teenage daughter Ollie, and pushing her elderly dad Len down the stairs. Yeah, that really wasn’t great and I have to admit, my love for Cain did falter a bit back then.

    But the pair ended up in a feud which ended in tragedy when Angie died in a car wreck.

    She passed away in Cain’s arms, having refused to tell him she loved him and instead telling him she loved her kids. Ouch. Suddenly we were Team Cain again!

    Cain’s done some awful things

    Cain Dingle went on to do some other awful things. He was (sort of) responsible for the King’s River show home explosion that killed Dawn Woods. He slept with teenager Amy Wyatt and tried to scare her into having an abortion. He’s been arrested many, many times. He was a troubled soul, there’s no doubt.

    But when he met Moira, he changed. And much as we’d enjoyed him being a tortured bad boy (though we hated what he did back then) we suddenly enjoyed him being in love, too.

    And, we know that as a couple, they’ve not had an easy time of it. What with Moira’s drinking, and her cheating with Nate, and Holly’s death. But since the pair reconciled last they’ve seemed rock solid.

    We thought Cain was back to being the Cain we loved best – a bit of an edge, definitely, but ultimately a good man.

    Not any more.

    Breaking Moira’s heart

    From the very start of Moira’s brain tumour journey, Cain let her down. Him immediately assuming she was drinking again and not seeing the changes in her personality wasn’t great.

    We could have forgiven him for all that, though, if he hadn’t then slept with Ruby.

    Ruby. His brother’s wife. And not only did he sleep with her, he did it while Moira was under the surgeon’s knife having her tumour removed.

    Slow hand clap for that man.

    We get that it was stressful for him. We understand that knowing your wife has a brain tumour isn’t easy. But you know what else isn’t easy? Actually having a brain tumour. Moira needed Cain by her side, and he let her down.

    Cain should have walked away (Credit: ITV)

    Taking advantage

    AND at the time it was obvious to anyone (except, apparently, Ruby’s own husband Caleb) that she was really struggling with her dad being around.

    She was acting very oddly. She was nervy and erratic. Absolutely the last thing Cain Dingle should have done, was to sleep with her.

    “Cain should have looked after you,” Caleb told Ruby in tonight’s episode.

    He’s totally right. Maybe Cain didn’t know the truth about Anthony at that point, but Ruby was so clearly vulnerable and Cain took advantage.

    And he did it – let’s just say it again because it’s so horrific it needs repeating – he did it while Moira was having life-saving brain surgery.

    Plus, as if all that wasn’t bad enough, he’s broken Caleb’s heart too. And of course Caleb won’t show it because he’s all Billy Big Boots and asserting himself as the alpha male of the village.

    But he grew up without a family, and then he found Cain and Chas, and he was accepted into the Dingles even though he’s really a Tate.

    And now the brother he always wanted to know has betrayed him.

    It’s time for Cain to go (Credit: ITV)

    No way back for Cain Dingle in Emmerdale

    It’s all so awful that we honestly can’t see any way back for Cain and Moira now.  Coira is no more – SOB. But much as we loved them together, that’s how it needs to be, because Moira can’t possibly get over this.

    In fact, we’re finding it hard to see a way forward for Cain at all. When the occupants of the limo all stood and listened to his (lame!) excuses for sleeping with Ruby, they were simply showing us what the whole village would think.

    There is nothing Cain can say that excuses this.

    “You’re pathetic,” Mack told him in disgust. And he’s right. Cain is pathetic.

    His bad boy ways have caught up with him at last and he needs to pay the ultimate price and leave the village. Maybe even for good. It’s just a shame so many other people have suffered along the way.

  • Disappointed Emmerdale fans slam soap for killing off Suzy

    Disappointed Emmerdale fans slam soap for killing off Suzy

    Last night’s episode of Emmerdale revealed that poor Suzy Merton was the first to die in the soap’s Valentine’s ice crash stunt. Riding in the limousine with other women from the village, Suzy sustained a life-ending injury as Charity swerved the car from the road.

    The vehicle came to rest in the middle of an ice-covered lake, perilously close to sinking through. But by then, Suzy’s journey was already over. She’d hit her head as the car swerved from the road, killing her almost instantly.

    Suzy killed in ice crash

    Inside the limousine, those trapped attempted to break for freedom. This meant that Vanessa was forced to leave Suzy behind, with stragglers Leyla and Kerry. Whether Suzy’s body will follow the limo into the lake remains to be seen, but Suzy’s story is essentially over, and actress Martelle Edinborough marked her exit from the soap with a triumphant statement on X.

    “And just like that….Suzy is no more and a new chapter begins!! What an ep! It’s been such a blessing to have been a part of such an iconic show that I grew up on and loved by so many!! 🙏🏽#Journeys 🌍💫💫” Martelle wrote as the episode finished.

    Disappointing news to many, who see Suzy’s death as a missed opportunity.

    Emmerdale fans decry ‘underused’ Suzy as soap kills her off

    Writing on X, viewers shared their disappointment in the soap’s decision to kill off Suzy.

    “It is disappointing Suzy got killed off. Actors of colour on this show aren’t getting big storylines. Suzy a lesbian character unfortunately the writers didn’t know what do with her,” wrote one fan.

    “Mary & Suzy was a story not yet told in soap, navigating a lesbian age gap relationship. Eastenders ignored Eve’s backstory. Why are writers only interested in telling same stories or certain characters. Suzy along with Eve two characters I liked sidelined this last year,” said another.

    “Suzy deserved so much better! I can’t believe the writers teased something between her and Mary, knowing nothing would ever come of it,” wrote a third.

    “Suzy is dead. Great last stuff from Martelle Edinburgh in tonight’s Emmerdale. Such a shame for that character as she was underused and had more to give But I said from the start she would be one,” said a fourth.

    Has the soap made a big mistake in killing off Suzy?

  • If it is Nate’s hand in the lake in Emmerdale – who killed him? All the fan theories so far

    If it is Nate’s hand in the lake in Emmerdale – who killed him? All the fan theories so far

    In what is already proving to be quite the dramatic week in Emmerdale (and it’s only Tuesday!) a hand was discovered under the icy lake and fans are convinced it belongs to Nate Robinson. But if it is, how did it get there?

    Viewers and Emmerdale Insider have long since wondered if Nate was actually dead rather in than in Shetland as has been claimed. And now it seems we might be a step closer to finding out the truth…

    Amy finds a hand – with a familiar friendship bracelet on – in the icy lake after the limo crash

    Last night (Monday February 17) the girls’ limo crashed onto an icy lake and started to fall through. Suzy Merton was killed on impact and the other women (and Liam) forced to get out of the limo one by one carefully crossing the ice.

    Liam, Chas, Vanessa and Tracy made it to safety, but Amy who was next to go, fell through the ice. She plunged into the water below and as she sunk to the depths she was confronted by a dead body – with us seeing just the hand, wearing a distinctive friendship bracelet. Very similar to the ones Frankie loves to make for everyone…

    Did Amy uncover Nate Robinson’s body?

    What happened to Nate in Emmerdale?

    Nate left the Dales last year. He was supposedly taking a job in Shetland, which is known for being remote. He has barely been in touch since he went, sending just one message to ex Tracy telling her he wasn’t ready to talk and he would be in touch when he was.

    The last viewers saw of Nate, he was off to confront Moira Dingle. She was unknowingly in the grips of her brain tumour and had made a pass at him. Caleb had witnessed it, told Cain and Cain had beaten his son. Nate tried to explain it was nothing and he had pushed her away, but Cain wanted nothing to do with him.

    Tracy, with whom he had recently reconciled, also ended things and told him to go to Shetland alone.

    Fans have long-since wondered why Nate’s exit was so abrupt. We never actually saw him leave and the last interaction he had was with John Sugden. 

    The fact he has not contacted his beloved daughter, who he once wanted sole custody of, nor did he respond to messages about his grandad Zak’s death, is highly susicious.

    Who killed Nate in Emmerdale?

    So let’s assume for now the hand does belong to Nate. Other theories include the most obvious, Anthony, whose body was disposed of by John Sugden last month after his death. But taking him out of the equation (Frankie definitely wouldn’t have made him a friendship bracelet!), just what did happen to Nate?

    John Sugden

    The smart money is on mysterious John Sugden. He was the last person (we know of) to see Nate alive and is also VERY handy at cleaning up after a murder.

    Fans seem pretty convinced, with one writing on social media: “My money is on psycho John.” Another queried: So did John kill Nate because he was the last to see Nate who just weirdly disappeared?”

    “We all know it’s prob John that off’d him, but considering they had no real interaction or connection it makes no sense to why? Just seems like trying to force another serial killer storyline,” mused a third.

    A fourth added: “I need a flashback to why John killed Nate. That guy was suspect from the start.”

    “It would explain why John appeared to have disposed of a body before he got rid of Anthony’s…” a fifth commenter connected.

    A sixth wrote: “I think John killed Nate and it’s something to do with his partner who was killing the Army, I think Nate was in the Army.”

    Caleb Miligan

    There was no love lost between Caleb and Nate after the former slept with the latter’s wife, Tracy. Nate took revenge by scrapping all of Caleb’s cars. But would Caleb have killed to get him back?

    “My theory is that Caleb killed Nate and so Cain will kill Caleb,” shared one viewer.

    Another agreed: “My money’s on Caleb having killed him.”

    Moira looks furious (Credit: ITV)

    Moira Dingle

    A quite out-there theory, but one that made sense at the time given Moira’s out of character behaviour.

    “Moira shot Nate, John covered it up and we now know he threw the body in the lake,” said one fan on X.

  • Emmerdale fans bash Titanic-sized plot holes amid lake crash

    Emmerdale fans bash Titanic-sized plot holes amid lake crash

    Fans of Emmerdale have started to pick apart this week’s lake crash stunt – finding a series of gaping plot holes as the survivors of the limousine disaster fought for life.

    This followed the events of Valentine’s Day, in which a limousine containing Charity, Chas, Amy, Kerry, Suzy, Vanessa, Tracy, Leyla and Doctor Liam crashed off the road onto an ice-covered lake.

    Resting precariously on the surface, it was only a matter of time before the vehicle sank to the freezing depths below.

    The survivors raced to dry land in Emmerdale last night

    The women (and Liam) staged an escape last night (Monday, February 17), creeping across the ice to safety, one by one. This went better for some – Tracy, Liam and Charity all made it across without much trouble, while Chas took a tumble and Amy sank entirely.

    Thrilling scenes… but some were distracted by the survivors’ somewhat counter-intuitive behaviour.

    Emmerdale fans point out plot holes in ice lake crash

    Writing on social media as the episode aired, fans registered their confusion at the survivors’ actions. And, among the questionable work on show, many noticed how members of the group kept slamming the limo door shut as they made their way out of the vehicle.

    “What gets me is why they kept shutting the door every time they got out,” wrote one viewer on Reddit.

    Others pointed out the strange choice to delicately totter across the ice (in heels, no less!) rather than carefully crawling.

    “I wondered why they took so long to try to escape and why they didn’t crawl to spread their weight? So the ice could stand the weight of a limo with a load of people in but gave way at other points?” another viewer wrote.

    “I don’t understand why nobody took their heels off to get across the ice and why everybody was slamming the door all hard, that makes no sense to me,” said a third.

    Meanwhile, others wondered why – Charity aside – nobody was trying to call for help.

    “Why is no one calling 999? Of course in soap world no one has a signal at all and no one around for miles,” one viewer pointed out.

  • Is the hand in the water Nate? All the ‘clues’ Amy just found Tracy’s ex

    Is the hand in the water Nate? All the ‘clues’ Amy just found Tracy’s ex

    In Emmerdale tonight (Monday, February 17), Amy fell through the ice. She then saw someone’s hand in the water – could it be Nate Robinson’s?

    Amy’s life flashed before her eyes tonight and if her falling through a frozen lake and fighting for her life wasn’t enough to scare her – seeing the hand of someone in the water would’ve been.

    But, we’ve now spotted some worrying ‘clues’ that this hand could belong to former villager, Nate Robinson.

    Amy spotted hand in frozen lake

    Tonight, the girls fought to save their lives as their limo started to sink into a frozen lake.

    Sadly, in the aftermath of the crash, Suzy lost her life and could not be saved. The rest of the girls (and Liam) then tried one by one to steadily cross the ice.

    Liam tested the waters (well, ice) after Charity made it, with Chas almost falling through but crawling to her safety.

    Vanessa and Tracy also made it across, with Amy then choosing to go next. However, the ice gave in and broke under her feet.

    She then fell through the ice and started to sink in the water, attempting to push her way out of the ice above.

    But, in a huge (and extremely jaw-dropping) twist, Amy was not alone under that water, oh no… She was actually in the company of someone else, screaming a muffled sound as her eyes gazed at a hand in the water.

    And, it was wearing a friendship bracelet…

    All the ‘clues’ Nate Robinson’s hand is in water

    Well, well, well, we’ve got a worrying theory that Nate Robinson could be the owner of the hand in the water.

    Remember when Nate left the Dales for Shetland in September last year? It was all a bit suss, with many fans believing him to be dead. But, after many months went by, he kind of got… well, forgotten about.

    Nate was last seen by John Sugden before leaving for a new job in Shetland without saying a proper goodbye to his family. Which brings us to our first clue… we now know that John is rather good at covering up a death or murder… He didn’t even blink an eye when helping Aaron clean up Anthony’s death at the Depot… It almost seemed like he’d done it before.

    Could John, the last to have seen Nate, have finished him off?

    Then there are those rather confusing text messages left by Nate after he left, specifically: ‘Settling in, head’s a mess, don’t call me, I’ll call you when I’m ready.’ He didn’t really want to stay in touch with Tracy, the rest of his family, or even his own daughter Frankie. Someone he literally went for full custody of, now cutting her out of his life just like that… Suss, suss, suss.

    But, the most obvious clue of all is that Nate was wearing a friendship bracelet on the day he left the village. And we all know his daughter Frankie loves to make friendship bracelets, with the soap putting a really obvious emphasis on these bracelets in recent weeks.

    And it actually makes sense now that the hand under the water was wearing a bracelet that looked exactly like Nate’s. But, is he dead under that water? Did he never actually make it to Shetland? If so, who finished him off? John?

  • Who lives? Who dies? What happened to Noah? All the questions we still have after tonight’s episode

    Who lives? Who dies? What happened to Noah? All the questions we still have after tonight’s episode

    In Emmerdale tonight (Monday, February 17), Suzy died during the girls’ limo crash on the ice – but who dies next?

    Lives are on the line as Amy finds herself trapped in the water after falling through the ice – and she’s not alone.

    But, will anyone join Suzy in the afterlife as the ice continues to be a danger to those who are yet to make it to steady ground? Here are all the questions we have!

    1. Why was Noah in the road?

    Charity swerved the limo and crashed because she saw an out of sorts Noah stumbling in the road at night.

    He didn’t look in a good state, and we know later this week after Charity finds him, that he’s in hospital for suspected spiking.

    But, who spiked Noah? And why was he all alone and walking into oncoming traffic?

    Emmerdale who dies?: 2. Will Amy survive?

    Amy wasn’t as lucky as Charity, Liam, Vanessa, Chas and Tracy. Instead, she followed the same path as they had done but ended up falling through the ice.

    She then tried to get out, pushing her hand against the ice above her as she struggled in the water.

    We know that spoilers reveal that someone tries to pull someone out of the ice, but can Amy be saved? And, who could risk their lives to save her?

    3. Will Kerry and Leyla die?

    We know that Roxy Shahidi is reportedly leaving the soap and that Leyla has been hiding the fact that she’s bleeding out from the other girls.

    Remaining put in the limo, could Leyla die from her injuries?

    And we know the limo is sinking rather quickly, but will Kerry (who is also one of the last left inside) go down with it?

    4. Are all the boys out of the woods?

    Liam travelled with the girls instead of the boys but has a serious bleed to the head as well as severe vomiting. But, will he lose his life?

    And then there are the other lads in the more fortunate limo… Whilst they look to be safe, tensions are high between Cain and Caleb…

    But, could a fight break out? Could Caleb’s hospital flash-foward be the cause of this?

    5. Whose is the corpse hand?

    Under the water, Amy (and all of us viewers) got a right fright when she saw a corpse hand.

    It was wearing a distinctive friendship bracelet… But, whose hand is it? And, what happened to the person to lead them to such a tragic end? So. Many. Questions.
