Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) continues her tumultuous journey after her sickening sexual assault at the hands of vile Dr Caitlin Todd (Caroline Harker) in Emmerdale next week.

Despite bravely reporting Todd’s vicious blackmail campaign, Charity’s left feeling defeated by the police’s response. While Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) tries his hardest to look after his suffering wife, it’s Serena Sugden (Casey Al-Shaqsy) who finally gets through to her. Will Charity continue to fight for justice?

While Kev Townsend’s (Chris Coghill) return brings good news for Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley), Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler) is less than pleased at his re-emergence, and resolves to rid the village of him forever, but how far will she take it?

When Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) learns of a link between Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) and his son, Kyle (Huey Quinn), he sets off to discover what’s going on, but what will he learn?

Elsewhere, a bloody crime rocks the village as the police swarm, but who’s the victim? And moreover, who’s the perpetrator?

Claudette Anderson (Flo Wilson) is thrilled at Kev’s re-emergence and offers him a place to stay. When he reveals to her that Lewis Barton (Bradley Riches) is his son, but wants nothing to do with him, she fiercely encourages him to pursue the relationship, insisting that he’s a good man who deserves a family.

When Charity reveals to DS Reid (Angela Lonsdale) that Todd was blackmailing her prior to the sexual assault, she’s dismayed to learn it will be treated separately from the initial charge, leaving her further wounded that she’s failed to protect Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill). Mack’s further worried about Charity when she insists on attending Leyla’s christening.

Meanwhile, Sarah’s suspicions are raised when Serena lets slip that she knows all about John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth), but she parks her concerns when she learns that Serena has been sleeping in her car and offers her a bed.
