    Schedule changes coming up for the soap ‘power hour’ in 2026

    ITV has announced new Emmerdale schedule for 2026 – with the introduction of what is being called a soap ‘power hour’ starting from next January.

    Emmerdale will continue to air five nights a week. New episodes will also drop on ITVX every morning at 7am as usual – meaning we don’t have to wait all day if we don’t want to!

    However, the soap will move to a new time slot of 8pm. The Thursday double bill will also be cut to half an hour to make way for additional episodes of Coronation Street.

    This ensures faster-paced, digestible episodes – a 30-minute format which has already proven popular with viewers.

    Classic Emmerdale usually airs every weekday on ITV3 at 6am and 6.30am, plus 1.40pm and 2.10pm.

  • What happened in Emmerdale on Friday March 7: Manpreet opened up and Jacob broke up with Sarah

    What happened in Emmerdale on Friday March 7: Manpreet opened up and Jacob broke up with Sarah

    In Emmerdale Friday March 7, Manpreet finally revealed exactly what her huge secret is to Ella, but things only got worse. And when Sarah went to tell Jacob about her pregnancy, things did not go well at all.

    Elsewhere Dylan was struggling with withdrawal symptoms and lashed out at April just as Marlon walked in.

    And Tracy’s money problems continued to grow as she keeps stealing from Eric.

    Read on for a full recap of Emmerdale tonight (March 7).

    Manpreet reveals all in Emmerdale Friday March 7

    Clearly on edge because of the text messages she has been receiving, she decided to block the number. However, this didn’t help as she soon got another one informing her that they “are not going anywhere”. It didn’t take long for Ella to work out something was going on – and Manpreet finally opened up.

    She revealed that she began posting photos of herself to her social media after she and Charles broke up because she felt rejected. But when a follower suggested she got a subscription account, it became something bigger.

    Now, with the messages, Manpreet is realising her career may be in complete jeopardy. And no matter how much Ella tried to reassure her, the doc wasn’t convinced. Ella then told her to delete her account – which she did.

    But immediately after she got another message: “Deleting your profile won’t make a difference”. As it turns out, the blackmailer has taken screenshots of all of Manpreet’s content. Another message came in: “One word to the police and everyone will know your secret. I will be in touch.” Who is sending the messages?

    Sarah confides in Charity

    Charity was on her way out but quickly realised something was wrong with Sarah, who stunned her by admitting she was pregnant. She headed out to meet with Jacob but before she got the chance to tell him the news, he broke up with her.

    Again, his reasoning was that he didn’t want to lose anyone else, and there was no changing his mind. Sarah returned home clearly upset and told Charity the situation.

    She reminded her that Sarah will have all of the Dingles to support her no matter what she decides to do. But Sarah’s mind was already made up – she wants the baby.

    Marlon gets frustrated as Dylan struggles

    Clearly in withdrawal from the drugs, Dylan starts to lash out at April who is trying to help him. And he does it just as Marlon walks in (bad timing!). Dylan heads out and Marlon tells April that she can’t be the one to help him get clean and that he needs professional help. But April is adamant that her experience on the streets makes her the best person to help.

    She even flips the situation asking Marlon what he would like to happen if it was her in that situation. While Marlon eases up on her, he heads to meet Ross (new best friends?). Ross instantly is on Marlon’s side and tells him they need to do something to get through to April.

    Elsewhere in Emmerdale Friday March 7

    It’s Vanessa’s birthday and she is missing Suzy. And when she continues to turn to Mary for support, Mary keeps her and Suzy’s secret quiet. But clearly with a guilty conscious, she decides to host small birthday celebrations for her.

    Tracy can’t afford to contribute as viewers found out last night that she is stealing from the shop. And despite promising Leyla that she would stop, Tracy once again gives in.

    When Victoria arrives, stopping her from telling Eric the truth, she suggests Frankie joins Harry for swimming lessons. And later signs her up with a deposit, leaving Tracy anxious about how she will pay for it.

  • What happened in Emmerdale Wednesday March 5: Sarah thinks she’s pregnant and Dylan gets to stay

    What happened in Emmerdale Wednesday March 5: Sarah thinks she’s pregnant and Dylan gets to stay

    In Emmerdale on Wednesday (March 5) Marlon jumped to conclusions about Dylan, before realising he was massively wrong. And Jacob lost his temper at Sarah, who had a pregnancy test in her bag.

    Elsewhere the mystery of Manpreet’s texts continue as the girls of the village paid tribute to those they lost in the Woolpack.

    And Cain continued to get grief from Matty, who was adamant that he doesn’t deserve Moira’s forgiveness, or to be at Amy’s funeral.

    Read on for a full recap of Emmerdale for Wednesday March 5.

    Dylan gets another day in the village

    Marlon reluctantly let Dylan come along to his, April’s and Paddy’s lunch at The Hyde, after giving him a list of hostels to spend the night at. But Dylan had already tried them, and they were full.

    Before their lunch, April opens up to her friend on how she’s feeling about her baby’s death. But she was unaware that Marlon sat in the other room listening to everything she said on a baby monitor.

    The three of them went to meet Paddy, and while they are there, Paddy’s phone goes missing. Marlon immediately blames Dylan, assuming that he had taken it. This only angers April more, who then gets Dylan and leaves.

    Not long after that Marlon comes home apologising as Paddy found his phone in the bathroom. April angrily explains to Marlon that she would be dead if it wasn’t for Dylan. This seems to strike a nerve, as Marlon asks Rhona if he could stay another couple of nights. The pair decide as long as he has no drugs, then he can stay only for a few nights.

    Jacob spirals and Sarah thinks she’s pregnant

    It’s Leyla’s birthday. And Jacob decided he wanted to head back to his placement, however everyone thinks it’s too soon. This turns out to be true, as a patient arrives with the exact same injuries as Leyla and he panics.

    He gets sent home, told to take time to grieve and come back in a few weeks or months. So, his next move is to get drunk. He meets up with Ritch for some beers, ignoring Sarah’s calls and Belle’s questions about the funeral.

    They then head back to Jacob’s house and he had invited a bunch of people he didn’t know over for a party. It doesn’t take long before Sarah arrives, but he isn’t interested in what she has to say and forcefully gets her out of the house.

    But then as she’s leaving she looks in her bag and we saw she had a pregnancy test. How will the pair cope?

    Emmerdale: Vanessa lashes out at Mary

    Mary has been clearly harbouring a secret about Suzy ever since she died. And in Emmerdale tonight, she went to check on Vanessa. But when she kept asking questions about the funeral, Vanessa lashed out and told her to stop. And even uninvited her.

    But later, realising she had been a bit harsh, Vanessa apologised and Mary admitted Suzy meant the world to her, quickly adding “as a friend”. And she still had Suzy’s photo on her, so what is she hiding?

    Cain looks upset in Emmerdale

    Matty remains annoyed at Cain

    Kerry and Matty were still struggling with Amy’s death. And it didn’t help when Cain came to drop of his suit for the funeral. Matty was quick to question why Moira would have sent him, and was immediately angry when he heard Cain and his mum were giving it another go.

    He told him that he knows he will never change, and ultimately hurt Moira again. But Cain was adamant that the pair are for keeps (Please keep it that way, Emmerdale).

    Matty furiously tells him that he shouldn’t come to Amy’s funeral, reminding him the way he acted when he found out Amy was pregnant with Kyle. However, it was Kerry who came to his defence. She told her son-in-law that no matter what he thinks of Cain, Kyle needs him to be there.

    Tracy looks guilty in Emmerdale

    Elsewhere in Emmerdale…

    The girls of the village met up to toast Leyla, Amy and Suzy. But as they were about to pay for drinks, Vanessa spotted how much cash Tracy had in her purse. Tracy nervously told Vanessa that she was paid in cash, but is that the truth? And if not, where is she getting the money from?

    And finally, Manpreet continued to get her mystery texts. She left the pub early, telling the girls that she got called in to work, but judging by the smirk on her face, that definitely wasn’t it. But what is she hiding?

  • What happened on Emmerdale tonight? Ruby broke down at Anthony’s burial site and Kim played Joe

    What happened on Emmerdale tonight? Ruby broke down at Anthony’s burial site and Kim played Joe

    Emmerdale tonight (February 26) aired the aftermath of Chas’ decision to go to the police. And while she was adamant it was the right thing to do, John halted their plans.

    The episode centred around John taking the lead and making sure the group stayed together. But after he showed them where Anthony is buried, could things be worse for Ruby?

    Elsewhere April began to open up to Rhona, who agreed to keep it between them. And Kim once again played Joe to find out what he is up to, as Charity is still convinced he spiked Noah.

    So here’s a full rundown of what happened in Emmerdale tonight.

    All of those involved with Anthony's murder cover-up were brought to the woods by John (Credit: ITV)

    Chas’ plan is halted

    Aaron didn’t like his mum’s idea to go to the police, worried it would throw John in the frame more than anybody else. But Chas seemed suspicious that he hadn’t shown them were the body was, and even queried his loyalty.

    When Aaron headed home to question John about the body, John seemed hurt by the accusation. And evidently disliked that Chas doesn’t trust him. He reminded Aaron: “I put my life on the line to save your skin. Remember that.”

    But it clearly struck a nerve as soon all of those involved in Anthony’s cover-up headed to the woods to meet him. And John took the lead. He informs them he wasn’t trying to manipulate the situation, but that the less they knew, the better. After explaining how the whole murder has impacted him, he outs Chas’ plans to the group.

    John showed where the body was – and Ruby broke down

    After Caleb and Cain let their (hypocritical) anger known at Chas, John takes control once again and informs them they need to stick together otherwise they all go down.

    He then directs their attention to the spot in front of them – where Anthony is buried.

    From that moment everyone agreed to take John’s advice and to trust him. But with all the speculation that he is Emmerdale’s next serial killer – is this a bad idea?

    Back at home, Ruby gets emotional thinking that Anthony was buried there and that it’s her fault. But Caleb once again informs her that the only person to blame is her evil dad.

    But at the end of the episode, Ruby went back to the spot and broke down in tears. Could she ruin the plan for everyone?

    Joe is played by Kim

    When Kim finds one of her listening devices in the bin thanks to Lydia, she realises that Joe must have been onto her plan. And immediately tries to think of a way to find put the truth.

    She apologised to him, and admitted she had been spying on him because she was afraid she couldn’t trust him. But that she has realised he has nothing to hide.

    Joe happily accepts her apology, and her extra workload, but fails to realise he is still being watched. As Kim now has Lydia working against him on the inside.

    April is emotional in Emmerdale

    Elsewhere

    April woke up with her first period since her traumatic birth experience. And when Rhona realised, she managed to get her to open up slightly. April explained it took her back to the birth, and asked Rhona not to tell Marlon any of it.

    Away from that, Charity remained convinced that Joe was the one who spiked Noah – and confided in Mack. But he kept reminding her that her judgement is clouded when it comes to Joe and that she doesn’t have any proof. With Charity more sure than ever – will she get the proof she needs?

  • As Emmerdale confirms Nate is corpse in lake, all the questions soap must answer

    As Emmerdale confirms Nate is corpse in lake, all the questions soap must answer

    We put the pieces together earlier this week and now it has been confirmed that Nate Robinson is the body in the lake in Emmerdale. But with the one person who saw him there now dead, we have A LOT of questions that the soap needs to answer.

    Nate left in September 2024 in somewhat strange circumstances – and fans have long suspected all wasn’t as it seemed. Now they have been proven right with this week’s dramatic episodes.

    Nate's last scene Emmerdale

    What happened to Nate in Emmerdale?

    So, if we back up to September 2024, Nate was rekindling things with estranged wife Tracy. They were about to move to Shetland together, where he had been offered a job building a wind farm.

    However, Moira Dingle, in the midst of battling her brain tumour (although no one knew it yet) made a pass at Nate and all hell broke loose. Caleb witnessed it, told Cain, who punched the living daylights out of Nate. Tracy then dumped him, unable to trust him and Nate decided it was best if he went to Shetland alone.

    The last time we saw him, he was talking to John Sugden. Nate was getting wound up about how badly he’d been treated and had decided to confront Moira. He told John that’s where he was going, stormed off to do so and the next thing we know Tracy gets a text from him in Shetland saying he’s got there, but not to call him because his head is a mess.

    Nate then never responded when he was told his grandad Zak Dingle had died and didn’t turn up at his funeral.

    All of this has made viewers vey suspicious – and it turns out we were right to be!

    Nate confirmed dead in Emmerdale

    Yes, us Emmerdale fans know when something isn’t right and the abruptness of his exit has had us questioning this for so long.

    This week the girls of the village went on a night out in a limo and it crashed on to a frozen lake. Amy Barton was making her way to safety across the ice when it cracked and she fell in. In the water she saw a hand wearing a very distinctive friendship bracelet – the same ones Frankie likes to make, and the one that her daddy, Nate, was wearing before he left.

    Everyone guessed it was Nate’s body, however it was only tonight (Thursday September 20) that confirmed it.

    Amy was fighting for her life in hospital with hypothermia. But she began to stir and whispered to husband Matty: “Nate,” and “underwater”. Matty thought she meant she’d been underwater, so she said again: “Nate”, but he didn’t seem to understand.

    We understood, of course, she was telling him Nate was under the water.

    What happens next…

    At the end of the episode the limo was pulled from the lake by police divers. Vanessa and Tracy watched as it looked like Suzy’s body had been recovered.

    But it seems Nate’s body is still in the water. The closing shots saw the body, wrapped in tarpaulin and chains, with just the arm floating free, sinking back down to the depths.

    So Nate’s body remains undiscovered. But now we know about it, it has to be found, right?

    Questions about Emmerdale’s Nate that the soap need to answer

    When will the body be found?

    Now Amy is dead, there is no one to reveal what she saw. Matty is in far too much pain and agony to focus on her final words. But once things settle a little, will he remember and try to get to the bottom of it? Or is Emmerdale going to leave Nate in the lake for months, making us all frustrated? Please, Emmerdale, don’t drag this one out!

    Who killed Nate in Emmerdale?

    It’s the big one, really, isn’t it? It’s obvious he didn’t just trip and fall to his death in the lake. He was murdered, wrapped up and put there. And who do we know who is an expert at disposing of a body?

    Umm hmm, that’s right, John Sugden.

    He has recently got rid of Anthony Fox’s corpse and he was the last person to see Nate alive, so he is a very good bet to be the killer.

    Other suspects include Caleb and some fans are even wondering if it was Moira!

    Why would John kill him?

    So assuming it was John who offed Nate, why did he do it? He barely knew the guy!

    Is he a serial killer on the lookout for any victim who crosses his path? Or did Nate find out something about John meaning he had to be silenced?

    We need a motive for this murder so we’re expecting a full-on flashback to explain everything, Emmerdale.

    Is it Nate’s grave Cain is stood at?

    Speculation has been rife ever since New Year when the soap aired five flashforwards over one involving Cain. He was seen standing and weeping at a grave, fresh from attending the funeral.

    Theories over the dead person have included Caleb – who was seen flatlining – Moira – who was suffering a brain tumour – and Liam – who was also involved in the crash.

    But it seems now we have our answer: is it Nate’s funeral? Is Cain grieving over his lost son, especially after beating him to a pulp the last time he saw him?

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Atmospheric music, cinematic filming and gripping storylines – this episode was a triumph

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Atmospheric music, cinematic filming and gripping storylines – this episode was a triumph

    Emmerdale tonight was brilliant, the action jumping between the girls trying to get out of the icy lake and Cain and Moira, Caleb and Ruby dealing with the fallout of Cain and Ruby sleeping together.

    A perfectly pitched episode, featuring amazing music, fabulous camera work and brilliant performances all added up to a triumphant episode.

    Here’s how Emmerdale played out tonight, Tuesday February 18.

    Cain confessed and Caleb confronted Ruby

    As Cain lay battered on the floor everyone told him to get himself home. Mandy insisted he needed a doctor but he told them all to just leave him.

    Caleb returned home and told Ruby what he knew. She broke down and confessed it was never about Cain, it was just about her dad and hating herself and wanting to destroy herself. Caleb told her she had broke his heart.

    He packed a bag, ready to leave, but Ruby told him she wasn’t giving up on them. Caleb told her he understood, she wasn’t in her right mind. He said he loved her so much and he believed Cain had taken advantage of her and used her. Caleb declared them unbreakable and they reconciled.

    Meanwhile, at Butlers, Moira woke to find Cain mopping up his wounds. She soon realised something had happened when she saw his face. She wanted answers.

    So Cain gathered himself, made them a cup of tea and confessed he had slept with Ruby. Will she forgive him? Is this the end of Cain and Moira? We’re devastated if so, but is there really any coming back from this?

    Back at the frozen lake, Amy was sinking deeper into the water and Tracy gallantly raced back across the ice to pull her out.

    Amy then lay frozen at the water’s edge, hypothermia taking over her body.

    Leyla

    They shouted for Kerry and Leyla to get out quickly as the limo was almost submerged, but Leyla revealed to Kerry the glass in her side and was barely conscious. Kerry was determined to find a way to get them both out, but with a broken foot, it wasn’t looking likely.

    Kerry managed it, though, and dragged Leyla together across the ice. When the ice cracked and Kerry nearly rolled in, Vanessa risked her life to go and get Leyla to safety so Kerry could get herself out alive.

    Liam

    Elsewhere, Liam was slowly fading on the banks of the lake, with Chas desperate to keep him alive.

    Charity finally got signal and phoned the emergency services, begging them to help. As she surveyed the scene of the crash and all her injured friends and family, Charity mouthed she was sorry.

    As the ambulances raced the injured to the hospital, Vanessa and Tracy stayed at the scene as the former broke down screaming over Suzy’s death.

    Back in the ambulances, we heard the tragic news delivered over the radio that they had “one patient dead on arrival” – so which one is it?

    What was the music playing in Emmerdale tonight?

    So far this week, Emmerdale has been brilliant with this stunt (and that’s coming from someone who does not like soap stunts!) The way it has been shot and directed with focus purely on characters has felt cinematic.

    Even the scenes away from the lake crashes – with Caleb and Ruby’s confrontation and Cain and Moira’s confession – seemed to have been shot differently to usual Emmerdale.

    The backgrounds were out of focus, and all we could see were the people. This way of putting the characters front and centre felt like we were there and experiencing it with them. The emotions were all the more heightened and real.

    The music meanwhile, has been incredibly fitting. The instruments playing at heightened pitches as the drama increased, covering the distressed cries of Vanessa as she mourned Suzy, was pitched just right.

    It always feels more emotionally charged when music like this is played instead of hearing characters screaming in turmoil.

    If you were wondering, the piece that accompanied tonight’s action was called Power-Haus by Balder (featuring Christian Reindl and Lucie Paradis). And what a powerhouse choice it was.

  • 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.”

    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.

  • As Caleb sets up Cain for Anthony murder in Emmerdale, here’s whether Cain will go to prison

    As Caleb sets up Cain for Anthony murder in Emmerdale, here’s whether Cain will go to prison

    So anyone who knows a thing or two about soaps knows secrets – especially murder secrets – don’t stay buried for long and Caleb Miligan in Emmerdale is doing all he can to ensure his brother Cain Dingle goes down for murder.

    Except we all know Cain had nothing to do with it. Cain merely agreed to give an alibi to help cover Aaron and Ruby’s tracks.

    That’s now coming back to bite him after Caleb found out the truth about him and Ruby. But will Caleb’s attempts to frame his brother result in a prison sentence for Cain?

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight?

    On Wednesday (February 12) several pieces fell into place for Caleb and he realised Anthony had been telling the truth about Ruby and Cain sleeping together.

    At first distraught and then seething, it was clear Caleb was plotting his revenge. And his opportunity came tonight (Thursday February 13) when the police arrived to question Cain over missing Anthony.

    Cain stuck to the story – Anthony had sold him his car for scrap and left the village. But the police soon arrested him saying new evidence had come to light.

    The new evidence was that Cain was the last person to see Anthony alive, he’d scrapped the car illegally and Manpreet had complained about noise after hours. Seems tenuous to us.

    But Cain then agreed they could search the garage anyway, insisting he had nothing to hide.

    Little did he know that Caleb had set him up. He had planted Anthony’s tooth in Cain’s boot ready for the cops to find. Fortunately, Aaron had spotted Caleb and retrieved the tooth before the police got there. Phew.

    So Cain was let out without charge. But with Caleb gunning for him, for how long will he be a free man?

    Does Cain go to prison in Emmerdale?

    Aaron confronted Caleb over setting up Cain and wanted to know what on earth he was playing at. But Caleb told Aaron he needed to butt out and that Cain was going down for this.

    Caleb produced CCTV that incriminated Aaron in Anthony’s disappearance and told him he had to choose between letting Cain go down or going down himself. Aaron was forced to walk away.

    So it seems clear Caleb is determined to frame Cain for Anthony’s murder – it kills two birds with one stone for him: take the heat off Ruby for the death and punish Cain for sleeping with his wife.

    But now Cain has walked away from the police station, Caleb will have to find another way to frame him. Will Aaron let that happen?

    Lake limo stunt leaves lives in danger

    Tomorrow night the boys head out for a night in a limo with Caleb and Cain among them. Caleb is forced to drive when no chauffeur arrives with the vehicle.

    But anger gets the better of him and he can’t cope being around Cain without blowing. As his temper rises, Caleb is forced to swerve to avoid an oncoming truck. He crashes, but will it be on the ice?

    In a flashforward at New Year, Caleb was seen flatlining in surgery at hospital – could he die before he gets revenge on Cain?

    Some fans think one of the brothers will try to drown the other in the icy lake.

    One thing’s for sure, Caleb is going to get his revenge one way or another – but it may not mean Cain going to prison in Emmerdale.

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Caleb framed Cain and threatened Aaron, while Liam got things really wrong

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Caleb framed Cain and threatened Aaron, while Liam got things really wrong

    Emmerdale tonight saw Caleb’s dark side come out as he framed Cain and threatened Aaron. But will Aaron get the better of his uncle?

    Meanwhile, Liam’s extravagant proposal hit more than a few hiccups, so he decided to put the idea ‘on ice’. Which might just be the stupidest thing he’s ever said…

    Here’s all that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Thursday February 13.

    Aaron foiled Caleb’s plan to frame Cain in Emmerdale tonight

    Cain arrested

    The police arrived at the garage to arrest Cain. Caleb, Ruby and Steph were watching and Steph shouted at the police car demanding answers. Ruby was beside herself, sure this meant it was all about to come crashing down around them. Caleb promised he would always protect her.

    Aaron then caught Caleb snooping around at Butlers. But Caleb pocketed some keys and managed to fob him off – for now.

    At the station Cain stuck to the story, but the evidence was stacking up – he was the last person to see Anthony alive, he’d scrapped the car illegally and Manpreet had complained about noise after hours. Cain then agreed they could search the garage.

    Aaron saved Cain’s skin – but was threatened by Caleb

    They found nothing – which it turned out was because Aaron had worked out what Caleb was up to and got there first. Caleb had planted Anthony’s tooth in Cain’s car boot and Aaron had found it before the police got there.

    Aaron wanted answers. But Caleb fronted it out and insisted Aaron was in too deep and he couldn’t interfere with his plan to frame Cain. Caleb then produced CCTV of Aaron taking Anthony’s stuff and driving Anthony’s car to the garage.

    “Loyalty’s for losers Aaron,” Caleb told him as he insisted Aaron had better keep quiet or else he would be next.

    Liam’s plan to propose in Emmerdale tonight

    Aaron was being hassled by John over how he was coping when Liam turned up. He wants Chas’ hand in marriage. But Aaron was distracted by the police being outside with Cain. The interaction between the two was quite amusing – Liam’s eagerness met with Aaron’s grumpiness gave us a good chuckle.

    Despite Aaron’s blessing, Liam was left disappointed when he didn’t win the limo ride in the raffle. Bang goes his big romantic proposal under the moonlight.

    Liam then asked Suzy to source him another limo, but Kerry was about to spoil that when she invited Chas to join her on a girls’ night.

    As Chas insisted she hated Valentine’s Day, Liam covered his embarrassment by saying he’d hired the limo for a boys’ night.

    He later confided in Paddy that he worried he didn’t really know Chas at all. He said he was going to keep it on ‘ice’ which is foreshadowing if ever we heard it.

    Leyla at rock bottom

    Suzy caught Leyla with cocaine at Take A Vow. Leyla explained it was Jacob’s and she couldn’t believe he was reaching for drugs. She vowed to act and tracked him down to the Hide.

    Leyla confronted Jacob in front of his friends and he insisted it wasn’t his. Jacob’s mate then confessed it was his.

    Despite trying to make it up to Jacob, his mate made things worse by trying to flirt with Belle and comparing her to a pigeon. He was dispatched pretty quickly after that.

    Meanwhile, Leyla was sobbing at Take A Vow over how she’d messed up with Jacob. Belle tried to comfort her, but it was no good.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Amy had bought some sexy undies for Valentine’s Day and decided to test them out a day earlier. Which was unfortunate because the social worker they were meeting about the adoption turned up early and caught them in the act. She seemed understanding though and offered to come back later.

    Fortunately, it all went really well and the adoption process has begun. But will there be any more slip-ups?
