Tensions rise next week in Emmerdale as Will’s blackmail ordeal spirals out of control, putting Kim’s life in serious danger. His mysterious enemy ups the stakes, demanding a staggering £50,000. Will, already struggling after missing the initial drop-off due to the fire at Mor Barn, turns to Caleb for help, offering his shares in the Hol business in exchange for a loan. Caleb hands over £40,000, but the fallout is immediate when Will confesses to Jimmy, leaving him furious over the secretive deal.

Just as Will believes he’s on the verge of settling the matter, things take a chilling turn. He returns to Home Farm only to discover that Kim is missing. The blackmailer calls again, revealing Kim’s abduction and leading Will into the woods for a horrifying showdown. In a tense twist, Will stumbles upon a mannequin dressed as Kim, propelling him further into the eerie forest.

Elsewhere, Billy’s secret stash of cash raises suspicion with Dawn, forcing him to concoct a story to explain his actions. However, it’s clear Billy is hiding something deeper. With these intense developments and more, Emmerdale fans are in for a gripping week full of drama and suspense.
