    Jimmy invites Ion, one of the Kings’ new builders out to The Woolpack for a drink to congratulate the workforce on their hard work. Overhearing Ion’s foreign accent, Martin and Louise wonder what the Kings are up to.

    As she collects glasses in the bar, Louise quizzes Ion. Looking on, Jimmy warns Ion that Louise’s boyfriend is a police officer. His shocked reaction confirms the worst to Jimmy – that Ion and his new builders are working in the country illegally.

    Later, Jimmy catches Jimmy trying to hire new labour. Figuring out what’s happened, he tells Jimmy to clear the building site immediately.

    Soon afterwards, Martin visits Jimmy and Matthew with questions about Ion. However, his investigation is too late – the Kings have fired Ion and destroyed the evidence.

    Speak now or forever hold your peace

    Later, Tom gives some post to Matthew. Opening it, he is shocked to see that it’s an invite from Sadie to her wedding – the very next day. Saying nothing to Tom or Jimmy, he throws the invitation in the fire.

    The next day, Matthew is brooding over Sadie’s invitation when he’s interrupted by Tom. Later, at Pear Tree Cottage, he finds himself unable to concentrate on work.

    Meanwhile, Sadie prepares for her wedding in a hotel room. Future mother-in-law Rosemary Sinclair helps her into her wedding gown, sarcastically noting that it’s a shame none of her family are able to attend. When she attempts to bribe Sadie out of the marriage, Sadie turns her down.

    Elsewhere, Tom organises a clay pigeon shoot. He insists that his sons join in – as he’s invited Helen and her daughter Grace, with whom he’s trying to set Matthew up. But Matthew has made a decision of his own – and grabs his car keys.

    Joining the crowd at Home Farm, he’s given food for thought by Grace. Realising that life is too short, he rushes to the door, telling them all that he’s off to stop a wedding.

    Tom, Carl and Jimmy all try to stop him, and are stunned when Matthew tells them that Sadie is getting married today. Tom tells him that if she gets back together with Sadie he’ll be voted off the board and lose control of the firm.

    He’s shocked when Matthew walks away anyway. Determined not to lose his son, Tom follows.

    Meanwhile, as Carl and Jimmy try to figure out where Matthew’s gone, Edna, Betty and Laurel arrive with the invite that they found in the fireplace.

    Will Matthew get to the church on time?

    Andy burns his bridges with Daz

    Jack tells Diane that he and Daz are going to see Andy. At Butler’s farm, Jack reminds Andy that he has a responsibility to Daz.

    Andy promises to take care of Daz, but won’t be forced to choose between him and Katie. He stresses that it’s Katie who needs him now.

    As Daz storms off upstairs, Jack tells Andy that Daz can stay with him for a while. Andy remains firm that he’s doing the right thing by Katie.

    With Andy’s support, Katie prepares for her father’s funeral. Breaking down, she fears that she can’t go through with it. Andy promises to be there for as long as she needs him.

    Jasmine’s a shoulder to cry on

    After Debbie is rejected by Ivan, Jasmine reassures her that neither of them needs a man when they have each other.

    Seeing the pair hugging, Ashley is worried.  The next day, with Debbie angry at seeing Andy and Katie together, Jasmine tries to comfort her.

    As Debbie breaks down, Jasmine holds her friend in a close embrace. Later on, Ashley finds the girls asleep on the bed together. He grows even more concerned when he sees Debbie’s arm around Jasmine.

    Alice sets a date

    Alice tells Sam that she wants to get married now they’ve got to grips with settling Samson in. However, he’s not too convinced.

    Later, Alice and Lisa visit Ashley in the hope of getting a quick date for the wedding. Spotting an advert in the local paper, she strikes on an idea to hold a reception in April.

    At home, the Dingles help Sam warm to the idea. As Del measures Alice up for the dress, she comments on how quickly she lost her baby fat. Realising what she’s said, mortified Del apologises. Alice makes a joke, quietly despairing over how her cancer casts a black cloud over everything.

    Why did Michael Parr leave Emmerdale

    Ross left the Dales in 2018 to start a new life with Rebecca White in Liverpool following a horrific acid attack. And it’s fair to say the actor’s exit left fans gutted.

    Michael said on his X account at the time: “Yes I’ll be leaving the soap soon. Have had the best few years at Emmerdale but it’s time to move on and explore other avenues.”

    In an interview with Digital Spy in 2018, Kate Brooks addressed Michael’s decision. She said: “Michael Parr will leave Emmerdale later this year at the end of his current contract. His decision to pursue other acting opportunities has given the writing team the opportunity to create an intriguing storyline for his exit.”

    Michael Parr’s job before acting fame

    Prior to becoming an actor, Michael worked as teaching assistant in a school for teenagers with learning difficulties.

    Michael spoke about his past job in 2015. revealing he “learned a lot” from it. He told Digital Spy: “Playing Ross is a walk in the park compared to that job.

    “Working with kids with special needs required a lot of patience. Every day is new to those guys, but I learned a lot from them.”

    What is Michael Parr doing now

    Following his Emmerdale exit, Michael went on to star in a 2020 episode of Bulletproof, as well as the 2021 movie Evan Wood. He also played Paul Hughes in the ITV drama The Long Shadow.

    In 2018, he revealed his huge career change and plans to land acting roles stateside.

    He told the St Helens Star: “My mum’s family are from Brooklyn and I have two passports, so I thought now is the right time to give it a go. I will be heading to LA but I’ll be spending time between there and New York.”

    Michael also set the record straight about his exit and said: “The nature of the beast is that I don’t know what’s coming, but I’m excited to see what could happen.

    “I would like to do more character acting like Gary Oldman who completely transforms into the people he is cast as.”

    Michael Parr’s jaw-dropping transformation

    In 2022, Michael revealed his incredible fitness transformation which he achieved after “quitting the gym”.

    As seen in Express, the actor shared a before and after snap to Instagram and revealed he managed to achieve it after “quitting the gym” and now feels “stronger than ever”.

    Michael Parr ‘secret’ romance with Isabel Hodgins

    Michael found love on Emmerdale as he ended up dating his on-screen sister-in-law Isabel Hodgins, who plays Victoria Sugden.

    The pair kept their relationship a secret but went Instagram official for the first time in 2015 on a romantic trip to Paris. However, as Hello reports, a year later, he was quizzed on his ‘secret’ girlfriend and if she would miss him, following his soap exit.

    “Maybe. But I’m not saying who she is. It’s no one else’s business. Social media for relationships can be detrimental.

    “We’re happy so we don’t need to show off. But if we were to break up it would only be worse when the papers get hold of it,” he told The Mirror.

    However, later in the interview, Michael slipped up when answering another question. He was quizzed about his diet and he said: “I keep it controlled. But I had two Pop-Tarts for my breakfast. Izzy bought me some.” He then added: “Oops. I mean, my good friend Isabel.”

    Michael and Isobel split

    In 2019, Michael and Isabel split after three years of dating. A source at the time told The Sun: “They drifted apart and felt it was better to be mates.

    “He has been throwing himself into his social life and has just been on a lads’ hol and she is focusing on work, they’re both young and want to follow their dreams.”

    Michael is now in a relationship with Isabelle Du Plessis. The couple went public in a sweet Instagram post from July this year of the pair posing during a holiday to Santorini.

  • As Ross Barton is revealed as Billy’s opponent, here’s what’s to come including a potential romantic reunion with Charity

    As Ross Barton is revealed as Billy’s opponent, here’s what’s to come including a potential romantic reunion with Charity

    Tonight’s episode of Emmerdale (Monday, October 28) saw the return of former fan favourite Ross Barton as he prepared to fight Billy. Eek!

    Billy failed to back out of a bare knuckle fight as he finally faced his opponent.

    Mack’s jaw then dropped as he informed Billy that his opponent was Ross… It’s fair to say he made QUITE THE ENTRANCE!

    Ross Barton is back

    Tonight in the Dales, Billy spoke to Jade and tried to get out of his fight. She made it clear though that this wasn’t going to happen.

    With Billy realising that severity of the situation, Mack turned up at Butlers Barn with Billy to support him. He also got Aaron to come with him in case anything went wrong. Actually a good idea from Mack for once!

    Later on, as Billy found out that the fight would be live streamed and would be a knockout, he got ready to face his opponent.

    Mack put huge fear into him though, announcing that his ‘beast’ of a competitor was Ross Barton.

    Mike Parr reveals all on Ross Barton return

    Teasing what’s to come in Emmerdale for Ross Barton, Mike Parr has teased all on what’s in store for the character now he’s back in the village.

    On the circumstances of Ross’ return, Mike explained: “Ross is an unsavoury character, and it’s always going to be a bit of trouble when he comes back. But Billy gets himself involved in some unlicensed Bare-Knuckle boxing, and this is where Ross Barton makes his return.

    “I don’t think we’re actually going to give away just yet why he’s in the predicament that he is. But Ross is a very feckless character, and he’s always got an eye open for a quick buck, and there’s money to be made in this Bare Knuckle thing.

    “And I also have to think about somebody with the psyche of Ross, somebody who’s lost his mum, lost his dad, lost his brother. What kind of mind frame are you in when you’ve lost all those people? So it’s all going to be revealed, but you just see him make his entrance being quite a prominent figure in the underground boxing world, and this is where he meets his match in Billy.”

    Emmerdale: What’s next for Ross?

    And, could Ross’ return to Emmerdale also involve a potential romantic reunion with Charity?

    On Charity’s relationship with Ross, Mike hinted: “I think she’s definitely softened. She doesn’t seem to be the troublemaker that she was. I know that that could change at any minute, but he’s grateful to her for doing such a good job with Moses. And you really can’t hate somebody who’s doing a great job of raising your most beloved possession.

    “But it’s Ross, and it’s Charity. There’s always going to be fireworks. They’ve got the history, but is there still a spark there? And does Ross want to rekindle? Or is he just doing it because there’s a stepfather role in Moses’ life now, and that is obviously not going to play well with Ross.” Exciting!

    Review of the week: Tina’s Vinny’s mum! Amelia’s a disappointment! And Nicola could save the day!

    Our Emmerdale review this week is a mix of hope and disappointment.

    Emmerdale is a real rollercoaster right now with moments of pure brilliance, whether that’s the emotions of the aftermath of Zak’s death, or the tension of Tom’s cruelty.

    But there have been some other times this week where we’ve been left confused or just downright disappointed!

    Here’s what we thought of it all in our Emmerdale review.

    Tina is Vinny’s mum! Whaaaaat?!

    The big news of this week is that Tina Dingle is Vinny’s mum. The reveal was delivered in such a throwaway fashion that despite being life-long Emmerdale fans who never miss an episode, we thought we’d missed this.

    We totally understand why Mandy’s worried about Vinny finding out after keeping this secret for so long.

    But what we don’t understand is why it was a secret in the first place?! Why wouldn’t Vinny know who his mum is? Has he never asked? Did he not sneak a look at his birth certificate at any point? Perhaps when he was getting married, or applying for a passport, or a driving licence… you see our point.

    And there’s more to this story too – read on for the rest of our questions in our Emmerdale review!

    Who’s Vinny’s dad?

    When Tina left Emmerdale, it was due to Frank Tate’s relentless sexual harassment. That’s led to some fans speculating that Vinny could be Frank’s son. It’s unlikely, given that Tina was not into Frank, but we’re not hating this theory – mostly because it might finally put an end to Caleb’s big old tantrum about the dad he never met.

    Belle’s mental health crisis

    Sometimes when an actor’s been in a soap for yonks you start taking them for granted a bit. But there was a moment this week – when Belle was talking to her dead dad beside his grave – when we were flooded with admiration for Eden Taylor-Draper, who’s played Belle since 2005.

    She is smashing it out of the park every episode and we think she’s great.

    Amelia is the worst in our Emmerdale review

    Meanwhile, back in the village, Amelia continued her unquestioning support of Tom, despite all the evidence to the contrary. Her glee at Belle being admitted to the mental health ward was decidedly un-Christian and frankly, we’re disappointed in her.

    Putting two and two together

    But elsewhere, Nicola’s Spidey-senses have FINALLY kicked in as she’s realised something’s up with son Carl. Will she be the one member of the King family to work out that Tom’s not the victim? Let’s hope so.

    And then there’s Sam who made everything a lot worse when he launched himself at Tom, but who did remember that Tom stalked Chas back when he was a troubled teen.

    Perhaps if any of the Dingles had remembered that sooner and raised some concerns, Belle wouldn’t be in this mess now, eh?! Just saying.

    Make it make sense in our Emmerdale review

    So, Billy’s spending his days training with Mack and John, and his evenings in crowded venues fighting in unregulated boxing matches.

    Visitors come and go at the family’s new home – whether it’s Will, Kim, or others.

    But despite all that Clemmie and Lucas are still being home-schooled – half-heartedly because Dawn’s always focusing on the laundry basket rather than anyone’s lessons – due to Evan’s illness? It makes no sense to us. Send the poor kids back to school, for everyone’s sake!

  • Fans rejoice as Nicola becomes suspicious of Tom – but, will she be the one to bring him down?

    Fans rejoice as Nicola becomes suspicious of Tom – but, will she be the one to bring him down?

    He’s been getting away with his behaviour for far too long – but last night’s Emmerdale (Thursday, October 24) saw Nicola grow suspicious of Tom. This came as she realised that little Carl seemed to be scared of cousin Tom.

    As the pair played with his remote control car outside, Carl would rather be anywhere else than with Tom – even, it seemed, doing chores.

    Noticing how he seemed to tense up whenever Tom was around, Nicola smelled a rat. Her steely expression as the episode ended seemed to suggest that she knows something is amiss… and, knowing Nicola, she’ll stop at nothing to get answers.

    Could Nicola be the beginning of the end for Tom?

    ‘Nicola will annihilate Tom’ say fans as her suspicions grow

    As scenes aired last night, fans were overjoyed to see Nicola start to cotton on to slimy Tom. And many found themselves hoping that she’ll be the one to bring Tom to justice.

    “Come on Nicola!! Be Belle’s hero!!!! Pleeeeeease!!!!,” begged one fan.

    “At last! Nicola’s sussing something is up!!,” cheered another.

    “Or maybe Tom’s not as innocent as he makes out” NICOLA LET’S GO,” exclaimed a third viewer.

    “Nicola is nothing but protective of her children. She will annihilate Tom,” a fourth predicted.

    Will Nicola get to the bottom of things… or can Tom wriggle his way out of trouble yet again?

    Emmerdale next week: Nicola takes action

    In Emmerdale spoilers next week, Nicola questions Carl after noticing the tension between him and Tom. Carl starts to open up to her, but soon clams up when Tom arrives home.

    Afterwards, Nicola confronts Tom – threatening to call the police as their argument escalates. With the fight between Nicola and Tom raging on, Jimmy grows increasingly worried by what he’s hearing.

    Can she convince Jimmy that Tom isn’t as sweet and innocent as he claims to be?
