Emmerdale serves up a whole range of emotions next week,
with furious feuds ignited and a devastating diagnosis on the cards,
as confirmed in Metro’s newest picture gallery.
Dawn Taylor’s (Olivia Bromley) world comes crashing down
when she spots a bruise on baby Evan and, without so much as
wasting a second, the concerned mum rushes her son to A&E.
The doctors conduct some tests and, afterwards, they inform both Dawn and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) that their child is very sick. Will (Dean Andrews) and Kim Tate (Claire King) rush to the hospital to be with them and, soon, doctors confirm that Evan has a form of Leukaemia.
As seen in my pictures, Dawn and Billy are left reeling by the news.
Elsewhere, Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) wears prostheses for the first time as she returns to work at the Woolpack, with all the women around her proving incredibly supportive.
Kerry Wyatt (Laura Norton), however – in typical Kerry fashion – makes an insensitive comment, with Chas unleashing her fury on her.
Worried for her cousin, Charity (Emma Atkins) checks in on her, with Chas breaking down as she reveals that she’s not looked at her surgery scars. Offering her support, Charity agrees to do it with her.
At Dale Head, Belle (Eden Taylor-Draper) fears that she might be pregnant and thus takes a test. To her relief, the test is negative, but it’s clear that Tom King (James Chase) is disappointed.
The abuser makes his thoughts quite clear. Tom, as and know, has been controlling and manipulating Belle for months, with scenes earlier this week seeing him coerce her into having sex.
Also next week, Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker) kisses Billy, with Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin) subsequently finding out about her betrayal!
It’s going to be quite a week!
