Huge Robert twist in Emmerdale ITVX streaming release as he joins forces with major character
The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Emmerdale that hasn’t aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX.
Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) told Ray (Joe Absolom) that he’s planning on causing ‘mayhem’ now he’s back in Emmerdale. In tonight’s episode, that exact aim got underway.
Ross Barton (Michael Parr), Lewis (Bradley Riches) and Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) were stunned yesterday as they discovered a large portion of cannabis plants they were hiding had disappeared. They immediately assumed newcomer Ray was responsible, but Mackenzie had proof that he never showed up to collect the products.
At the end of the instalment, it was revealed that Robert had given Ray the plants instead and in return, he received a very large chunk of cash.
In this evening’s episode, Robert arrived at Butlers Farm with a proposition for Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb). He explained that he has some money as a result of an investment, and would like to use some of it to buy land from Moira.
His plan was to build his own barn and get a few cows for the land as well, harking back to the days his Sugden relatives would run a farm in the village.
Moira, who is still drowning in debt following the slurry leak, knew this was a perfect opportunity for her. She shook Robert’s hand, and later told Ross that it feels like she can see the light at the end of the tunnel, at last.
Up at Home Farm though, Robert’s true intentions were revealed. He was standing in the kitchen with Kim Tate (Claire King), who was busy opening a bottle of champagne.
Kim spoke about how she’s impressed with the way Robert operates and he smiled.
The land from Moira was technically bought by Robert, so what part will Kim play in his new plan?
