Dawn (Olivia Bromley) and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) have become suspicious of the events surrounding Will Taylor’s (Dean Andrews) death in Emmerdale.
Viewers of the ITV soap saw Will, the husband of soap icon Kim Tate (Claire King) perish earlier this week.
The character clutched his chest and fell to the floor in pain shortly after Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) informed her all about Will’s vicious plan to take her down.
Mirroring scenes from 1997, when she watched her then-husband Frank Tate (Norman Bowler) die, Kim smirked as Will dragged the Christmas tree down, believing he was suffering a panic attack.
Kim fought tears as she performed CPR, desperately trying to save her husband’s life, but he was later declared dead.
The death has rocked the village to the core – at the start of tonight’s episode, Kim was still in utter disbelief, and Dawn took comfort in the fact that someone was by her dad’s side in his hour of need.
His best pal Jimmy King (Nick Miles) broke down in tears when he heard the news.
Elsewhere, Joe’s return ruffled some feathers with the Dingles, as his younger half-brother Noah (Jack Downham) was less than impressed to see him make a grand return after 6 years.


Joe pleaded for his forgiveness, citing that he didn’t have many family members left and wanted to reconnect.
His mum Charity (Emma Atkins) tried to defuse the situation, but was soon approached by Billy who wanted to know some more information about him, and exactly why he’d shown up at Christmas.
