    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Amelia and Jimmy forgave Tom and we have lost all hope of them ever seeing sense

    Emmerdale tonight dealt us another blow when Jimmy and Amelia took Tom’s side after his outburst last night. Even Rodney was sympathetic to Tom – enough is enough.

    Meanwhile, Billy was forced to confess to Dawn and sulked when she took control of the situation. But will he go along with her plan?

    Here’s what happened in Emmerdale tonight (Wednesday November 6)

    Tom manipulated again

    Jimmy is STILL sympathising with Tom. He’s STILL on Tom’s side. Even Rodney offered Tom some support. What is wrong with them?

    Jimmy then tentatively asked if Amelia was all right and suggested she was quite upset about the night before. Tom turned it round (again) and said he knew he shouldn’t have got angry. He manipulated the situation suggesting he now felt like Jimmy and Amelia were now turning on him. Jimmy, of course, rushed to insist he was still on his side. Sigh. And the most stupid man in the village award goes to…

    Amelia was a bit tougher to crack. Jimmy went in to bat for Tom when he saw her and said he was worried about Tom and there’s no way Tom would ever want to purposely upset her.

    Amelia then relented and let Tom come over. He did his best puppy dog eyes and apologised for overreacting. He’d apparently been awake all night worried about Amelia. And she actually bought it and even ended up feeling sorry for him.

    We cannot take much more of this.

    Billy was given what-for in Emmerdale tonight

    Billy was training and being miserable, avoiding Dawn and trying to keep his secret. When he returned from his run, Dawn was frantic, saying Clemmie and Lucas were missing. She has looked everywhere and they were nowhere to be seen.

    Billy refused to call the police and confessed it was to do with Jade. Confused Dawn didn’t have time to press as Clemmie and Lucas ran round the corner. Jade didn’t have them and now Dawn wanted answers. Whoops Billy!

    So he then confessed what he’s been up to. Dawn couldn’t believe he would be this stupid. Doesn’t know her husband very well, does she?!

    Dawn then called Ross over to sort out the mess. She has a plan – they are going to fix the fight. She didn’t give Billy a choice, she said he was the one taking the fall and he had to drop.

    Billy was not happy and decided it was because Dawn had feelings for Ross and wanted him to lose. But Dawn gave it to him with both barrels – she wasn’t messing and we quite like this side of her.

    But something tells us Billy’s ego is so bruised he’s not giving this fight up without, er, a fight.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Liam and Chas were loved-up

    Liam crept in to the Woolpack back room with flowers for Chas. Half of him is ready to throw caution to the wind and tell people – he’s even bought new aftershave and a new shirt for the occasion.

    Things still seem a bit awkward between them as they started kissing. And then Chas suddenly pulled away.

    As they sat together talking things through, Liam said he would wait as long as she wanted to. But Chas is worried about what she looks like after the cancer surgery. Liam insisted there was no pressure at all, he was here for her. They both confessed to feeling safe with each other, but Chas still isn’t ready. Liam was very understanding and they did end up in bed. It feels like there might be a real future for these two – if Emmerdale don’t go and mess yet another couple up, that is.

    Aaron and John fell out

    John and Aaron still need to talk, but John was avoiding it. However he eventually plucked up the courage to ask Aaron to open up to him. But Aaron was defensive and insisted he couldn’t deal with this now.

    He said he did care about John and wanted him, but didn’t want to talk about his past. John just couldn’t shake that niggling feeling though, and pushed a bit too hard about Aaron’s feelings – insulting Robert in the process. Talking really isn’t their strong point, is it?

    Emmerdale spoilers: Caleb saves frail Pollard after lorry crash

    In Emmerdale spoilers, Pollard and Caleb are fighting – but the pair appear to be warming up to each other…

    Yes, you heard that right. The cold heart of Caleb makes a kind gesture to a struggling Eric.

    As the longest-serving character in the soap, Eric has been a resident of the village for nearly 40 years. Caleb is not known for his nice gestures, but this could be about to change.

    Here’s what’s to come in Emmerdale spoilers…

    Emmerdale spoilers: Caleb and Pollard fight

    The week starts with Pollard confronting Caleb about the increase in traffic due to his warehouse.

    In true Caleb fashion, he blithely bats away his complaints and refuses to take him seriously. Typical Caleb…

    Seething at his dismissal, Eric takes action commandeering one of Caleb’s lorries.

    Due to not having his medication and being in a state of stress, his hand tremours and he crashes into some crates. In 2023, Eric was dealt a shattering blow when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. He’s still full of life, but needs support from the residents of the Dales.

    Concerned and shaking, Pollard struggles to hold it together after the shocking reminder his health is slowly deteriorating.

    Later, Caleb comes to the shop and warns Pollard against interfering with his business and Pollard does his best to maintain his dignity in front of Caleb. The proud man doesn’t want to let on he’s struggling.

    A new friendship on the horizon?

    The next day, Pollard’s embarrassed when Caleb spots him wandering into the village, clearly out of sorts. Aware he’s in need of help, Caleb offers him a lift.

    Utterly beaten, Pollard swallows his pride and accepts. Caleb drops a vulnerable Pollard at Liam’s house and despite their usual bickering, Pollard’s emotional as he thanks Caleb for his kindness.

    Liam assures Eric that his brief paralysis was a symptom of not having access to his usual medication. Adamant that he doesn’t want to worry anyone, Eric makes Liam promise not to tell his family.

    Caleb’s surprised to see Pollard back behind the counter at the shop so quickly after the incident. Pollard assures Caleb that he’s not giving up.

    While Caleb is known for keeping his distance, the pair share a kind moment and could even be warming up to each other.

    Is there a new friendship forming?

  • Robert Sugden: Relationship with Aaron, why he’s in prison and whether he will ever return

    Robert Sugden: Relationship with Aaron, why he’s in prison and whether he will ever return

    Robert Sugden in Emmerdale is one of the soap’s ‘legacy’ characters. Born on-screen to one of the show’s most iconic families, he was at the heart of all sorts of drama during his years on Emmerdale.

    Here’s the lowdown on what he’s been doing and where he is now.

    Robert Sugden in Emmerdale: The early years

    Robert’s dad was Jack Sugden and his mum was Jack’s first wife, Pat. He has an older brother, Jackie Merrick, as well as two half siblings, sister Sandie and brother Tommy.

    Robert’s mum was killed in a car accident when he was only four months old. When Jack remarried – to Sarah – she brought him up as her own, along with new baby Victoria and eventually adopted brother, Andy.

    Sarah Sugden’s death

    Sarah Sugden died in a barn fire set by Andy who thought he was helping the family finances – he thought they could claim on the insurance. When Robert found out Andy was responsible for his mum’s death, it started a feud between the brothers.

    Andy, Katie and Robert love triangle in Emmerdale

    Andy and his childhood sweetheart Katie Addyman were happy – or so Andy thought – but she started an affair with Robert! When Andy found out he was devastated. Katie and Robert got engaged but he cheated with Sadie King and that was the end of their engagement!

    With Robert’s feud with Andy at boiling point, the pair embarked on a lethal game of chicken. Except Max King had asked Andy for a lift and was in his Land Rover as he took on Robert. Andy crashed into a wall and though he escaped, Max was killed when the car blew up.

    Wanting to avoid prison, Robert legged it and only returned to watch his dad Jack’s funeral from a distance.

    Robert returns to Emmerdale

    Nine years after Max’s death, Robert returned to Emmerdale engaged to Chrissie White. By this time, Andy and Katie had rekindled their romance and were planning a wedding but Robert immediately began meddling.

    He had offensive messages engraved on the pair’s wedding rings, leaving the newlyweds fuming!

    Killing Katie!

    Desperate for revenge, Katie was convinced that Robert was cheating on Chrissie. She threw herself into finding out who he was having an affair with and was shocked to discover it was Aaron Dingle.

    Robert and Katie had a furious argument ending with him shoving her and sending her plummeting through some rotten floorboards. Aaron and Robert covered it up and let Andy find his new wife, and assume it was a tragic accident.

    When Paddy found out the truth, Robert tried to kill him in a grain silo.

    Who shot Robert in Emmerdale?

    Andy was devastated and furious and wanted to get rid of Robert for good. He made a Strangers on a Train style deal with Ross Barton, each agreeing to kill the other’s brother.

    When Robert was shot, there were a whole list of suspects, but Ross wasn’t among them! When Robert found out Andy had been involved there was another game of chicken (do they never learn?!). Andy crashed his car, but this time Robert pulled him from the wreckage and they called a truce.

    Robron

    Robert and Aaron’s romance was one of fans’ favourite Emmerdale storylines of all time. During the drama of the Hotton by-pass crash, the pair got engaged and planned a huge wedding!

    But of course nothing is that easy in Emmerdale! Aaron went back to prison for a bit, he had a brief drug addiction, and then Robert slept with his sister-in-law Rebecca White – mum to Seb who’s being mentioned on screen a lot at the moment. But finally Robron made it down the aisle!

    However, their happiness – and fans’ pleasure at their union – wasn’t too last…

    Emmerdale: Why is Robert in prison?

    During a night out in Hotton, which was filled with drama, Victoria met a man called Lee Posner. He didn’t take no for an answer and raped her in her own house after the night out. Victoria was devastated and locked herself away for a while before she eventually told her shocked family the truth about the rape – and the fact that she was pregnant.

    Lee got away with his crime, until Robert took his own revenge. He whacked Lee with a shovel and he died. Robert was sent to jail. He set Aaron free and has subsequently refused to see Victoria. We now also know he has signed his rights away to son Seb following Rebecca’s death.

    Later we discovered that it was possibly Lee’s brother, Luke, who’d been responsible for killing him. But Robert remains behind bars.

  • As Billy’s fight club and Tom’s behaviour leave fans ‘bored’, 4 other storylines that were total flops

    As Billy’s fight club and Tom’s behaviour leave fans ‘bored’, 4 other storylines that were total flops

    Emmerdale is currently airing some long-running storylines that are not hitting the mark. It’s fair to say fans are fed-up with it – and it’s not the first time plots have failed to impress.

    So what other storylines do you remember that didn’t capture your attention? We’ve rounded up the ones lots of Emmerdale fans are talking about.

    The current storylines in Emmerdale

    Although Tom’s abusive behaviour towards Belle started off as a masterpiece in soap storytelling, many viewers are getting fed-up. The consensus is that it has dragged on too long and Tom needs to get his comeuppance now.

    Sadly, in real life, this sort of behaviour would not be over in a heartbeat, but soaps do have the gift of being able to speed things up or slow things down as they so wish. Fans are now really annoyed and have regularly aired their frustrations over Tom on social media.

    “Tom will have arranged all of this… boring storyline,” said one after the Guy storyline on Tuesday November 5.

    Another addressed the soap itself: “Dear Emmerdale, wanted to let you know the storyline has become a joke and it’s kind of insensitive to people who go through DV. I mean Tom was banged to rights but you’re doing everything to make him evade justice so now the storyline is boring.”

    “The story of Tom is starting to get boring when will he get exposed?” sighed one more.

    Meanwhile, Billy, Ross and the illegal fights aren’t fairing much better!

    “All this bare knuckle fighting, plastic gangster business would be laughable if it wasn’t so boring,” joked one on X.

    Another agreed: “All this fighting stuff needs to stop now. Silly storyline…”

    “Emmerdale too much gloom and doom now. This fighting stuff is one of the worst stories ever,” said a third.

    Other storylines that have failed in Emmerdale

    It’s not the first time fans haven’t been happy with the on-screen antics. In fact they are now discussing it on a Reddit thread: just which storylines have failed to hit the mark?

    1. Amit’s whole storyline arc in Emmerdale

    Rishi died in a shock move by the soap last year. At the time it seemed he fell down the stairs. However, when his brother Amit arrived, it was revealed he had actually pushed Rishi to his death. They were rowing about inheritance money.

    Rishi, a fan favourite, is sorely missed. Amit meanwhile, was evil and unlikable and it was never really clear whether he actually cared about his family or just money.

    In the end, Jai found out the truth, pushed Amit down the stairs, locked him up for a few days, then blackmailed him to leave. And he did.

    “They killed off great Rishi for that [bleep],” said one fan.

    2. Marlon and Jessie

    Remember Marlon’s fourth wife, Jessie Grant? We barely do! But let us refresh your memory. Jessie was Leo’s headteacher, but she was on the rebound from a previous relationship. However there were sparks (we must have missed them) between her and Marlon and they got together and then had a surprise Christmas wedding.

    Tensions between Jessie’s sons Ellis and Billy as well as the arrival of her ex, Al Chapman, caused trouble and Jessie decided to leave for a new job in Dubai. Arguably the most emotional part of the whole thing was how little April reacted to losing yet another ‘mother’.

    “Zero chemistry from them and therefore zero interest from me,” said one fan.

    Another agreed: “Crazy to think that they even gave Marlon and Jessie a big Christmas Day wedding and by the following Christmas they’d already split up!”

    3. Jacob and Victoria’s romance

    They fought against all odds to be together, their love could not be stopped even though they knew it was wrong. And then suddenly Victoria no longer loved Jacob, actually she never had really at all, and she dumped him. It was all a bit for nothing, wasn’t it?

    It was scandalous given Victoria had been his sort-of former stepmother, dating his stepdad David. But actually the age difference between her and David was more than that between her and Jacob. We could almost get on board with them falling for each other.

    The reactions of their families were also dramatic with David leaving, Pollard struggling to come to terms with it and Leyla not happy at all. But then within weeks Victoria decided it wasn’t right, all the gushing she’d done was actually not real and she dumped Jacob. He’s barely been seen since!

    “The Jacob and Victoria romance – where even is he, anyway?” asked one viewer.

    4. The Rhona and Ivy storyline in Emmerdale

    Rhona Goskirk was completely thrown (as you would be) when she discovered her ex-husband Gus had used their frozen embryos without her permission to have a baby with his new wife, Lucy. Sadly, Lucy died in childbirth and Rhona made it her single-minded mission to get custody of baby Ivy.

    It threatened her entire marriage to Marlon, which was left hanging by a thread. She even went on the run with the baby so as not to give her up and ended up in court on kidnap charges. Then she betrayed the deal she’d made with Gus, tore him apart at his fraud trial and got him sentenced to eight years. Thus, giving her custody of Ivy.

    That is Ivy who we’ve not seen or heard about since.

    There was never going to be any winners in this storyline and all it served to do was make a previously favoured character disliked.

    “Rhona getting custody of Ivy went on forever and now you never see her,” said one fan.

    EXCLUSIVE: Emmerdale fans overwhelmingly vote for Charity to stick with Mack over Ross

    Ross Barton is back in Emmerdale and stirring up trouble for Charity and Mack. But despite fans having beef with Mack himself, they have overwhelmingly voted for Charity to stay with her husband and not go back to baby daddy Ross.

    Ross and Charity have a ‘connection’

    On Monday night (November 4) Ross put the moves on Charity, but she rebuffed him. However, it was clear she was tempted – ever heard the saying ‘the lady doth protest too much’?!

    Ross is confident they have a connection and told Mackenzie as much on Tuesday (November 5). There’s no doubt Ross was enjoying winding Mack up as the Scotsman continued to patronise and belittle him. He even joked things between him and Charity were like “fireworks”, which riled Mack so much he stormed home to confront his wife.

    Charity confessed Ross had kissed her, but insisted she had set him straight and he knows it’s never going to happen. That wasn’t good enough for Mackenzie who vowed to kill Ross. Because that’s worked so well for him in the past – how many times has Ross overpowered him now?!

    Desperate to save her hubby from getting a pasting, Charity cornered Ross and told him to stop playing games. She said she was the only one in his corner, so he needed to stop winding her husband up.

    But even these scenes showed Ross is right, there is a connection between them. But will they act on it?

    Fans don’t want a Ross and Charity reunion in Emmerdale

    Those watching at home certainly don’t want Charity to cheat on Mack with Ross.

    In an exclusive poll run by Emmerdale Insider, a whooping 92 percent of you want Charity and Mackenzie to stick it out. So it seems Ross is not the man for her. In fact, fans have done a U-turn on Mack and how they feel sorry for him over Ross’s behaviour.

    Last night, Charity and Mack made up and insisted Ross couldn’t touch them. They are apparently “unbreakable” – which is always a giant red flag that something is about to break them!

    Will it be Ross? Or will Emmerdale listen to the fans and keep this couple together?

    A happy couple in Emmerdale? Now that would be a first!

    1. Clemmie and Lucas go missing

    Billy has been backed into a corner by bad boss Jade, who wants him to fight Ross again. Despite his best attempts to stand up to her and tell her it isn’t happening, she isn’t taking no for an answer.

    To prove her point, she turned up at Holdgate and tricked Dawn into having a drink with her. Although she played nice, her threat was obvious – I can get to your family.

    Billy returned home to find them together and was furious, but Jade made herself very clear: fight Ross again or next time it’ll be your kids I take.

    And tonight, Billy thinks she’s done just that. He comes home to find Dawn frantically looking for Clemmie and Lucas. She tells him they are missing and he immediately puts two and two together, gets six, and says Jade has something to do with it.

    Dawn’s confused as to why Jade would be involved with their missing kids, but will Billy confess all? And will Clemmie and Lucas be okay?

    2. Dawn makes a plan

    With Billy on the backfoot, he soon finds he has to come clean. How will Dawn react when she finds out the truth?

    4. John pushes too far

    Struggling John didn’t realise Robert and Aaron were so deeply involved and is shaken. He continues to press Aaron to reveal more, but Aaron gets defensive and storms out. Can these two make it up?

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Tom showed his true colours as he lashed out at Amelia in front of everyone

    Emmerdale tonight saw Tom King slip up when he launched a tirade of abuse on Amelia in public. Surely there’s no coming back from that now?

    Meanwhile, Ross was winding Mackenzie up and it worked, and John worried about Robert.

    Here’s all that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Tuesday November 5.

    Tom hit out at Amelia

    Sam and Lydia’s bonfire party was getting going and Nicola agreed to meet Jimmy there so he could spend some time with Angel. Only after Tom insisted he wasn’t going because he was in too much pain after ‘being attacked’.

    Tom went back on his word, though, and went to the event with Amelia. Nicola was not best-pleased to see him, but agreed to ignore it to enjoy the evening with her family. Bob even bought them all a hotdog as a peace offering. He said it was time to move on as it’s what Heath would have wanted.

    But things took a turn when the guy was brought out and put on the bonfire and it was a clearly an effigy of Tom. Did he make it himself? We suspect so, but as he threatened the Dingles wanting to know who had done it, one by one they all admitted to being behind it. How very I am Spartacus!

    Amelia then went into bat for him, but all that did was rile Tom up even more. Tom turned on her. He told her he hadn’t wanted to come and it was all her idea. She seemed confused as she thought it had been his idea. He accused her of meddling, told her she was chasing after him like a stray dog and was pathetic. Amelia ran off, leaving Tom looking slightly worried he’d gone too far – ya think? Even Jimmy looked uncomfortable with the situation.

    Can Tom rectify this and put himself back in control? Or has hitting out in front of a crowd shown the village what they already knew – he is a nasty abuser? Is this finally the beginning of the end for him?

    Emmerdale tonight: Ross wound Mack up

    Ross wanted to do a firework display for the kids as an olive branch to Mack and suggested they stage it together. But Mack thought it was another dangerous idea and waxed lyrical about being a safety conscious dad.

    As he tried to patronise Ross, Ross fought back throwing what happened with Chloe and Reuben in his face. He then insisted he and Charity still had a connection and referenced their heart to heart yesterday.

    Mack went to see Charity and asked for the truth about their ‘connection’. Charity confessed Ross had kissed her. As Mack went apoplectic Charity insisted they were solid, but Mack was going to kill Ross apparently. He’s clearly forgetting the last few times Ross has kicked his backside!

    Mack later returned home to Charity and told her he believed her. They insisted they were “unbreakable” (which is foreshadowing if ever we heard it) and made up. So how long until Charity’s in bed with Ross then?

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Ella didn’t make it easy

    Ella was moving out and Mandy was helping her. But Ella was adamant she was not leaving the surgery as well as her home. Liam tried to talk her out of it and felt working together might be a bit awkward. Ella did not and said she was taking the job, end of discussion.

    John brooded

    Aaron was feeling glum over Seb and it’s brought up all sorts of memories for him. John overheard him confiding in Victoria and tried to lighten the mood, but Aaron sulked off. Victoria advised her brother to talk about his feelings to Aaron. That’s a new idea, isn’t it?!

    But rather than talking, John took the brooding approach, worrying over how deeply involved Aaron and Robert really were – clearly he’s not aware of the Robron hashtag, eh? But will he take Vic’s advice and just ask Aaron about it?

    More fight club in Emmerdale tonight

    Ross was clearly being followed, but not by Mackenzie, by someone who actually could take him on and frighten him. Jade was waiting with her heavies and they gave him a pasting before hanging him over a bridge. Ross is being made to fight again.

    Jade then paid Dawn a visit and they bonded over wine, leaving Billy shocked and furious. He tried to stand up to Jade and even offered to help her out with money. Jade laughed in his face and threatened Dawn and the kids, leaving Billy with little choice but to face Ross in the ring again.

    They both insisted this would be the last time and an end to it – and we really pray that it is because we can’t watch much more of it.

  • Daisy Campbell lands new role after being axed from Emmerdale

    Daisy Campbell lands new role after being axed from Emmerdale

    Emmerdale star Daisy Campbell has landed a new role outside of the soap. This follows recent news that Daisy will be leaving the soap after thirteen years of playing Amelia Spencer.

    According to The Mirror, producers told a shocked Daisy that they would be writing Amelia out of the soap during a meeting earlier this year.

    While the soap hasn’t revealed details of Amelia’s exit, Daisy has wasted little time in putting herself out there – appearing on the Big Brother spin-off Late & Live last night (Monday, October 4).

    Emmerdale star Daisy Campbell makes appearance in new role

    Daisy showed up on the Big Brother spin-off as a panelist alongside YouTuber Zeze Millz and ex-housemate Henry Southan.

    “All the way from Emmerdale Farm and ready to dish the dirt, it’s Daisy Campbell!” host Will Best exclaimed as he introduced Daisy to the studio audience.

    Together with co-host AJ Odudu, Will and the group went on to discuss the latest happenings from inside the Big Brother house. And Daisy seemed to be in fine spirits indeed – a world away from Emmerdale and Tom’s manipulation.

    When will Daisy Campbell leave Emmerdale?

    In an interview with The Mirror, Daisy explained why she was leaving the soap.

    “It wasn’t my choice to leave Emmerdale and it was a shock at first. Being in Emmerdale is all I have ever known. I’ve spent the whole of my childhood growing up in the soap and it felt daunting,” she said.

    “Once they explained, I totally got it. Amelia isn’t part of the Dingles, her dad has left, Samson has gone now and she doesn’t have any family. There is nowhere to take Amelia and I understand that. I feel incredibly lucky to have been in the soap for 13 years and to have been handed so many opportunities at such a young age.”

    Daisy’s final scenes on the soap will air this Christmas.

  • Nicola and Bob affair predicted by fans – and Tom will use it to his advantage

    Nicola and Bob affair predicted by fans – and Tom will use it to his advantage

    Emmerdale fans have predicted that an affair between Nicola and Bob is on the cards – and that scheming Tom could use it to his sinister advantage.

    Last night’s episode of the soap (Monday, November 4), saw Nicola share a tender moment with Bob. This came after her daughter Angel’s return to the village. Bob set aside his heartbreak to tell Nicola that Angel was struggling since her return from the STC – and planned not to go back to school either.

    As Nicola broke down, the pair shared a comforting hug. However, the moment had some fans wondering whether Nicola and Bob might be headed for an affair.

    And even if not, one fan theory predicted that manipulative Tom could use Bob to drive a wedge between Nicola and Jimmy.

    Emmerdale fans predict Tom will use Nicola and Bob ‘affair’ to his own advantage

    Writing on X as the scene aired, fans shared their thoughts on where Bob and Nicola‘s tender moment might be headed.

    “Nicola, be careful hugging Bob in public. Tom will lay it on thick with Jimmy and convince him (though it won’t take much) that she’s having a fling,” suggested one worried viewer.

    “Hear me out… Nicola and Bob affair incoming?” asked a second.

    “Please put Bob and Nicola together even if it’s just to sicken Jimmy,” joked another.

    However, others saw the scene for what it was – a warmer moment shared between two struggling parents. After all, Bob has recently lost son Heath due to Angelica’s actions.

    “Well it’s good to see Nicola Wheeler get some material to dig into. That scene with Nicola and Bob was fantastic…” another fan said.

    Fans warn soap not to put Bob and Nicola together

    Earlier this year, fans warned writers of the soap not to go ahead with a Bob and Nicola affair. This came in August, as Nicola sought comfort in Bob’s words after learning that Angel wasn’t doing too well at the detention centre.

    As Bob gave Nicola a shoulder to cry on (very good of him, given what Angel had actually done), viewers sensed there could be more to it and begged the soap not to go there.
