There’s a big week ahead in the Emmerdale village, as our gallery of spoiler pictures reveals.

For April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan), it sees her fall deeper into the clutches of sinister Ray Walters (Joe Absolom).

When he reveals the standing of her current debts, April is appalled, until Ray reels her in with a suggestion of how to lower them faster.

Ray takes her to a car park where he explains the details of the role, and when she faces an encounter with a beaten-up lad she quickly learns the consequences for messing it up.

However, her demo deal is successful and Ray hands her a burner phone, making her a full-time dealer.

Elsewhere, Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) is doing whatever he can to put off getting his prostate checked, and even goes so far as to cancel his appointment.

Unfortunately, things soon escalate, and he realises he has no choice but to face his fears head on.

He eventually opens up to Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) about his symptoms, and how he fears he may have prostate cancer, leaving her devastated.

Meanwhile, Charity Dingle’s (Emma Atkins) guilt overwhelms her as she heads to get a DNA test to determine whether or not she is carrying Ross Barton’s (Michael Parr) baby.

Things will still be tense for a while yet, though, as they face a wait of up to 10 days for the results.

Despite both still keeping major secrets from each other, Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham) is excited that Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) can finally adopt Thomas.

While Gabby plans to take her secret to the grave, Vinny worries his lies will come out if he agrees to testify against Mike. Will he take the risk to stop him hurting anyone else?

Vinny isn’t the only one sneaking around, as Caleb Miligan (William Ash) attempts to leave the house on an errand without being noticed.

However, he doesn’t get far before Ruby Miligan (Beth Cordingly) stops him, demanding to know where he’s off to. What will he say?

Emmerdale airs these scenes w/c Monday September 22 on ITV1, ITVX and YouTube.
