Emmerdale praised for trigger warning ahead of tonight’s episode by grateful fans

Emmerdale will air difficult scenes involving Ruby Fox-Miligan in Thursday’s hour-long episode and fans have praised the soap for the trigger warning ahead of its broadcast.

Ruby has been a main fixture in the Dales for almost a year, but since the arrival of her estranged daughter and father last month, it’s been clear that she has been suppressing something.

In tonight’s episode (Thursday, December 12), special flashback scenes will reveal all.

What is Ruby hiding?

Ruby arrived in Emmerdale at the start of the year and has spent most of her time causing chaos. First she outed her husband’s affair with Tracy and then she run Ethan over in her car.Â She also teamed up with Rose in a plot to take down Kim Tate.

More recently, viewers have seen a softer side to Ruby. Last month, Ruby’s estranged daughter Steph arrived. She was soon followed by Ruby’s dad Anthony, who hasn’t won over viewers with his behaviour so far.

While Ruby and Steph have managed to make amends, Ruby is finding it more difficult to bond with her father. Steph has been pushing for them all to play happy families, but Ruby has been struggling with the idea â€“ instead preferring to crack open another bottle of wine.

Ruby’s tragic past will be revealed in Thursday’s episode, with Emmerdale confirming she was the victim of sexual abuse as a child. Although the scenes are not graphic, Emmerdale issued a warning to viewers on social media.

The message read: “In tomorrow’s episode (Thursday 12th), Emmerdale will contain references to sexual violence that viewers could find distressing.” It was accompanied by a website link where viewers could seek advice.

Fans praise Emmerdale warning

Fans have been speculating about what Ruby has been hiding and have now praised the soap for the advance warning, with one fan on X tagging another soap and writing: “take note.”

A second fan simply wrote: “Thank you for the warning,” with a heart emoji. On Instagram, another viewer said: “Thank you for this Emmerdale. Not enough shows give warnings for this.”

A fourth viewer expressed their gratitude and wrote: “Thank you for the trigger warning, it is much appreciated.”

A fifth fan replied to the message with: “I absolutely love Emmerdale for this.”

Classic Emmerdale spoilers: Donna wants to join the police, Eric’s suspicious, and Jack’s annoyed again

In todayâ€™sÂ ClassicÂ Emmerdale spoilers for episodes airing on ITV3 on Thursday, December 12, Donna drops a bombshell on the unimpressed Dingles and then gives Marlon an ultimatum!Â Eric’s suspicious about Pearl’s finances, and Jack’s annoyed again

These episodes originally aired on June 4 and 5, 2006.

Donna is not taking any nonsense in Classic Emmerdale

Donna is working hard to make a success of the night cafe, so she is not impressed when the Dingles descend en masse and announce they should eat free because they’re family.

To make things even worse, she finds Shadrach swigging booze in the shop. She gives chase, and he legs it upstairs – where they interrupt a frisky Bob and Viv dressed in their best saucy attire!

Furious (and more than a little disturbed!) Donna makes a citizen’s arrest.

Eric’s suspicious

Meanwhile at Home Farm, Eric is suspicious when Pearl shows up at the housing development launch. He asks her if she’s planning to invest in property now. And he tells her that first she pleaded poverty, then paid off her debts in one fell swoop – and that makes him wonder what she’s up to.

He even suggests she might have stolen the cash – which isn’t that far from the truth.

Later, Pearl is even more shaken when Edna quizzes her about where she got the money to repay the debt.

Katie’s night is ruined

Elsewhere, Katie plans a night in for her and Andy, but it’s ruined when Jo comes home early and helps herself to their wine.

Donna drops a bombshell

The next day, a still angry Donna is determined to press charges against Shadrach. Marlon is horrified and asks her to reconsider but she won’t give in. Zak tells Donna she must face the Dingle court. But Donna thinks the whole thing is ridiculous.

And then she drops a bombshell! She tells the stunned Dingles that they’d better get used to her shopping them, because she’s planning to join the police!

She even gives Marlon an ultimatum – his family, or her.

Classic Emmerdale spoilers: Jack’s cross – again

Daz is working at the Woolpack but while he’s collecting glasses, he’s draining the dregs. Jack’s annoyed to find him tipsy and blames Diane for not keeping an eye on him.

Rodney’s got an idea

Meanwhile, as Rodney browses the shelves in the shop, Viv reads aloud from the newspaper. She shares a story about a donkey sanctuary that could be forced to close due to council cutbacks and Rodney realises this could be a good way to win votes…

Emmerdale confirms Ruby was the victim of sexual violence as they prepare to air flashback episode

Ruby Fox-Miligan’s tragic past will be revealed in tonight’s episode of Emmerdale. Viewers will learn that she was a victim of sexual violence as a child.

As Steph goes through some old photos she comes across a photograph from Ruby’s 16th birthday. When she shows her mum Ruby says she doesn’t remember – but it’s clear she does.

Flashback to Ruby as a teen in Emmerdale

In flashback viewers will then get to see Ruby’s sixteenth birthday party. It’s here they will get a glimpse of her tragic past – although the scenes are not graphic in content.

Ruby’s husband Caleb doesn’t know what happened to Ruby as a child. This is because she has buried the trauma as a coping mechanism throughout her life.

Tricky times for Ruby (Credit: ITV)

But now the arrival of Steph as well as Ruby’s dad Anthony has stirred up a lot of emotions for Ruby. Her life has begun to spiral out of control. The painful memories have resurfaced and flooded her thoughts. And the truth about her past goes someway to explaining why she pushed Steph away as a child.

Fans have been convinced that something awful happened with her father. Some even speculated he could be the father of Steph and not Caleb.

Others are sure the mysterious Rob, who has been mentioned by Anthony and we will see in the flashforward, is behind the attack.

“Ruby has always been troubled and volatile in nature,” said Emmerdale Producer, Laura Shaw. “Finally our audience will be able to learn more about the past that has haunted her and made Ruby the woman she is today.”

Emmerdale usually airs weeknights on ITV at 7.30pm, with an early release on ITVX at 7am.

What happened on Emmerdale tonight: Cain tried to confess, April learned the truth, and Anthony gloated

Emmerdale tonight found Cain Dingle on the verge of confessing to wife Moira about his fling with Ruby. As he drowned his sorrows, the drunken Dingle went on a village bender before being dragged home to his furious wife.

It was then that she revealed what the doctor hadÂ actually told her yesterday – and Cain once again swallowed his own lies.

Elsewhere, Ross made a bad situation worse, Jimmy and Nicola tried to cheer Angel up, and Ruby tried to build bridges with Steph… while smug Anthony continued to gloat.

Hereâ€™s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Wednesday December 11.

Cain was feeling wretched (Credit: ITV)

Cain hit the bottle in Emmerdale tonight

Waking up in a prison cell, Cain was greeted by a sympathetic PC Swirling. With Jai agreeing not to press charges for yesterday’s rampage, officer Swirling offered Cain a few words of wisdom along with his release.

At home, an irritable Moira told Matty how she wanted nothing to do with Cain. A text from Chas reminded her about Cain’s upcoming surprise birthday party, but she and Matty were more focused on her treatment.

Phoning the station, Moira was infuriated to learn that Cain had already been released – and gone AWOL again. She was less than sympathetic to Swirling’s worries that Cain is ‘struggling,’ too.

But, after unveiling plans for a fifty-candle cake for Cain, Isaac had Moira doubting herself… the party’s back on!

Meanwhile, in the pub, Cain hit the bottle with a large whiskey. Nagging Chas and Mack both told him to go home and make up to his wife.

Moira told Cain the truth

Instead of going home, Cain headed to the allotment. There, he set about pounding beers by himself. It was there that he was found by Liam, who was worried to hear that his friend hadn’t been home yet.

Hauling Cain home (and apparently leaving three unopened beers at the wayside!), Liam dropped the drunken Dingle off, where he was full of (slurred) apologies. Moira ruined the surprise element of his upcoming party, warning him that he needed to get his act together for the kids’ sake.

“There’s something I need to tell you,” he responded, his guilt weighing heavy.

And, on the verge of confessing, he was shocked to learn that Moira still needs radiotherapy for a tumour that could yet come back.

She then informed him that, as he couldn’t be trusted, she’d face the rest of her treatment alone. Well done, Cain.

April learned the truth about her mum’s death

Ross started the morning by vomiting up the bottle of vodka he’d confiscated from April. Finding him in his car, she was appropriately grossed out by his current living situation. When he told her how he was planning on leaving the village, the youth beseeched that he stay and teach her more about her mother.

Reluctantly, Ross agreed. Over lunch at the Hide, he fielded some difficult questions about mum Donna.

However, Ross’s excuses for Donna’s death didn’t sit right with April. And, as he kept digging himself into a hole, April learned how her mum had actually died trying to protect her. Talk about making a bad situation worse. And presumably the pizzas went to waste too, along with Cain’s tinnies.

Anthony was in a smug mood (Credit: ITV)

A visit from Anthony

Anthony popped around to see Ruby and Caleb with an apology for the day before. Describing himself as an ‘overprotective dad,’ he managed to smooth things over – while Steph volunteered her mum to make a coffee for Anthony.

She also had Ruby score an invite for Anthony to Cain’s birthday party before flouncing out to work. Alone together, the atmosphere turned frosty – while Anthony tried to reassure her that he planned on staying out of her business in future.

Later, she attempted to build bridges with Steph. A tearful Ruby apologised for Steph’s rough upbringing, reassuring her that she’d always loved her.

Outside, she informed Anthony that she’d sorted his invite to Cain’s party. As Anthony reiterated his hope that they could move on from the past – “things that are usually buried for a reason” – Ruby swallowed her obvious pain.

“Positivity at last,” laughed a smug Anthony. “Be a terrible shame to let anything ruin it.”

Ominous… but what are they both sweeping under the rug?

Jimmy and Nicola got festive in Emmerdale tonight

Jimmy was feeling regretful at having torn up Tom’s letter. As Nicola attempted to draw him out of his funk, he suggested that they channel Angel’s energy into something other than Tom – Christmas, for example.

Later, as the family set about decorating the house, Angel appeared to show signs of lightening up. However, her festive mood was short-lived – furtively hiding an incoming call from Hotten Prison and, presumably, dear uncle Tom.

Is Rubyâ€™s dad the most vile Emmerdale character ever? Here’s all the evidence

He’s only recently arrived in Emmerdale, but Ruby’s dad is already proving to be a controversial figure – just ask his daughter. Anthony Fox made his debut last month, popping up to torment his estranged daughter and son-in-law… and he’s already at home in the village.

Ruby was mortified at the sight or her dad, leading to fan speculation that there’s a terrible secret lurking in his past. Whatever Anthony may have done to his daughter (and viewers have their ideas about that too), he’s quickly emerged as one of the soap’s most disliked figures.

Here’s a run-down of all Anthony’s bad behaviour so far.

Caleb didn’t take too kindly to Anthony’s probing (Credit: ITV)

Ruby’s dad on Emmerdale: Village snoop

This week’s episodes saw Anthony learn about Caleb’s affair with Tracy. Demanding answers, he confronted Caleb on Tuesday night (December 10) – only for Caleb to threaten to ‘smash his teeth down his throat’ if he didn’t back off.

His meddling continued afterwards as he questioned Ruby, wanting to know how she could stand for cheating Caleb.

“Please Caleb can you smash his teeth down his throat,” laughed one fan.

He snapped at Ruby

It was during his conversation with Ruby that viewers caught a glimpse of the real Anthony. As Ruby went to leave, Anthony snapped, telling her to sit down. Known firebrand Ruby was surprisingly compliant – suggesting that there might be to rumours of abuse.

“Anthony showing his true colours to Ruby!!!” noted one shocked fan.

“Ruby’s dad showing his nasty side to Ruby again,” said another.

Anthony’s clearly hiding something (Credit: ITV)

What is Ruby’s dad hiding on Emmerdale?

Ruby’s reaction to her dad – a shell-shocked look on her face – suggests there might be truth to rumours of childhood abuse. Indeed, many think that Anthony sexually abused Ruby as a child – and may even be Steph’s ‘real’ father.

This resulted in a panic attack last week, as Ruby was forced to make nice with Anthony in front of Steph and Caleb. But how long before someone takes notice?

“I think the real reason that Ruby does not want to be around her father has more to with him not standing up for her against her mother when she was a child. Because of the scene with the hyperventilating, I think he’s sexually abused her as a child,” wrote one fan.

“I’ve got an awful sickening theory about Ruby and her dad in #Emmerdale. He mentioned someone called Rob possibly being Steph’s dad but what if her dad was abusing her and he’s actually the father and that’s why she can’t bear to be around him,” said another.

Anthony recently revealed that he has cancer (Credit: ITV)

He could be lying about his cancer

Another popular fan theory is that Anthony is lying about his cancer. He recently won grandaughter Steph on side by telling her that he had been diagnosed with cancer. However, some viewers think that he’s not being entirely honest about this either…

“Heâ€™s going to pretend to have cancer so he isnâ€™t so hated on when itâ€™s revealed that heâ€™s Stephâ€™s dad,” one fan theorised.

He’s manipulative

Between his following Steph into the village and using her to force a relationship with Ruby, Anthony is clearly manipulating his doting granddaughter for his own ends.

Last week, he told her that he planned on leaving the village if he couldn’t reconcile with Ruby. Lo and behold, days later, and Steph had forced her mum into letting Anthony in – essentially telling her that she’d be leaving too, if Anthony did.

He gives us the creeps too (Credit: ITV)

He’s just plain creepy

Whatever Anthony may or may not have done (and our money’s on it being something terrible), Anthony is also… well, he’s a creep. If any further evidence is required, just look at that sneering face hogging the camera yesterday.

Emmerdale fans turn on Moira over Cain treatment: â€˜Struggling to careâ€™

Fans of Emmerdale turned on Moira Dingle during Tuesday night’s episode of the soap – as she told Cain not to come home after he was arrested for assaulting a police officer. Cain’s tussle with the law came during Moira’s time of need, as she learned that she would require ongoing treatment to ensure that her tumour doesn’t return.

Cain, meanwhile, found himself in a prison cell after hitting Jai’s car, and then lashing out at PC Swirling. As he called Moira to explain himself, she reacted with fury – telling him not to bother coming home.

However, some fans found a bit of a double-standard in Moira’s reaction.

Moira receives backlash from Emmerdale fans after slamming Cain

Writing on social media as the scenes aired, fans shared their ire at Moira’s behaviour. And many were quick to recall how she was hardly innocent herself.

“Struggling to care about Moira being â€œlet downâ€ by Cain. Sheâ€™s cheated on him, sheâ€™s beat on him, yet now sheâ€™s perfect and delicate because sheâ€™s ill?” said one annoyed fan.

“To hear Moira talk, you’d think she was Mother Teresa! She’s having a go at Cain for assaulting someone, when she’s done exactly the same thing & even killed Emma Barton! Talk about pot, kettle & black,” said another.

“I seem to be alone in my dislike of Moira. She’s done some horrible things to people over the years – including Cain. I wish they’d just write her annoying character out of Emmerdale,” wrote a third.

Cain isn’t exactly innocent either (Credit: ITV)

‘Grow up’ say fans as Cain’s moping continues

This comes after another week of moping for Cain. He’s been struggling with his conscience since sleeping with Ruby – driving those around him away with his pouting and unpredictable behaviour.

And fans have had enough – with many writing on social media to share their disappointment in the Dingle hard man’s mood swings.

â€œI know Moira has a brain injury, but even that wouldnâ€™t stop her from seeing Cainâ€™s guilt,â€ quipped one fan.

Moira and Cain storyline gets fans switching off as they fume at the writers

Fans of Emmerdale have been left fuming at recent developments between Moira and Cain – as she received some shocking news, and he continued to spiral out of control.

Learning that she would have to undergo radiotherapy due to the risk of her tumour returning, Moira was in a state. She reached out to Cain in her time of need, but he let her down – smashing into Jai’s car and assaulting a police officer.

As the episode ended, Cain was in a prison cell, and Moira was fuming – telling him not to bother coming home. This comes as Cain continues to struggle with his guilt over cheating on her with Ruby a few weeks ago.

Cain and Moira’s marriage isn’t in a good place, then – and fans really aren’t happy about it.

Emmerdale fans slam writing as Moira and Cain marriage hits the rocks

Writing on social media as last night’s episode aired, fans shared their frustration at the sorry state of affairs (no pun intended) between Cain and Moira.

“Wish they wouldn’t do this to Cain n Moira let them be happy it’s getting too gloomy,” wrote one fan under a post on Instagram.

“Will somebody sack these writers and bring new talented ones in. Not everybody has to have bad relationships. Why canâ€™t you leave Moira and Cain alone? They’re good together. You always have to spoil a good thing,” bemoaned a second.

“What ruined this storyline was the Cain and Ruby scene. Cain shouldâ€™ve been there for Moira and perhaps Ruby could bump off her old man. He deserves it,”Â another viewer threatened.

“I’m wondering if the writer(s) just doesnâ€™t like happy couples. Doing her best to split Ruby and Caleb. Now splitting up one of the nicest couples Cain and Moria. Honestly it could be renamed Misery Dale,” a fourth joked.

Has the soap gone too far in its treatment of Cain and Moira?

If so, things are unlikely to get better anytime soon – as a tormented Cain decides to confess up about his fling with Ruby tonight.

Cainâ€™s â€˜washed-upâ€™ and Ross needs to â€˜replace himâ€™ as Emmerdaleâ€™s top dog, fans insist

He may have ruled the Emmerdale roost for over 20 years, but fans think Cain Dingle’s time is done – and Ross Barton needs to replace him. This comes amid a series of recent struggles for Cain, who has been in crisis since cheating on Moira with Ruby.

Terrified that he’d lose his wife to the brain surgery on her tumour, Cain spiralled out of control. Getting drunk, beating up Jimmy and sleeping with Ruby, it was quite the day for Cain.

Ever since, Cain’s been a tormented man. Last night, he wound up on the wrong side of the law. This came as he smashed up Jai’s car and assaulted a police officer. As a result, he wasn’t there for Moira in her time of need – who had been undergoing radiotherapy to prevent the tumour from coming back.

And, as Cain’s torment continues tonight, fans have had enough.

Make way for Ross: Emmerdale fans are done with ‘washed-up’ Cain

Writing on social media, fans shared their thoughts on Cain’s recent behaviour. And many agreed that the time has come for Cain to make way for the new alpha male in town – Ross Barton.

“Time to feud Ross with Cain. And Ross makes Cain leave. It has to happen, Ross needs to take the big spotlight now Cain’s washed up,” wrote one fan on Instagram.

“Cain enough is enough now! Stop making it harder for yourself and man up! Stop,” demanded another.

“Such a disappointing story line. Cain would be there for Moira. stop with this nonsense now please,” said a third, not buying Cain’s recent fall from grace.

Ross, by contrast, has been the talk of the town since returning to the village – beating up Mack, getting April kidnapped, and inspiring a conspiracy of haters (Charity, Caleb and Marlon).

He’s going nowhere soon – is it time for Ross to claim his crown as top dog in the village?

Emmerdale spoilers tonight: Cain wants to tell the truth

The storyline continues tonight, as a guilt-ridden Cain prepares to confess all to Moira. With Moira still fuming at his behaviour yesterday, Cain decides it’s time to come clean.

Will he tell her about his fling with Ruby?
