Emmerdale spoilers: Robert Sugden and Aaron Dingle face bitter court battle

In his desperation to keep baby Seb in the family home, Aaron Dingle has made a potentially costly mistake that could end in a courtroom showdown in Emmerdale. Realising that he had gone about things the wrong way by letting Rebecca White leave with Seb before Aaron could say goodbye, Robert Sugden arranged for his son to stay the night.

As Aaron played happily with Seb, Liv Flaherty questioned why he couldn’t stay longer and with his sister having pointed out that Seb would choose to stay if he could, Aaron was given food for thought.

As Robert helped Liv revise for her exam and took her to school, Aaron volunteered to drive Seb back to Rebecca and Ross. But he stopped on the way and realised that he couldn’t do it.
Robert was shocked when he got a phone call from Rebecca saying that Aaron was yet to turn up and when Aaron admitted to him that he hadn’t taken Seb back, Robert talked some sense into him.

Robert eventually took Seb back to his mum but having been left knocked by the experience, it’s clear that she is dubious about letting Seb stay again. As Robert voiced his fears to Aaron that they could lose visiting rights as his actions have made things look bad, they were left wondering if they’d end up having to fight Rebecca in court after all.
It remains to be seen whether Rebecca will calm down in the cold light of day but being forced to say goodbye to Seb has really hit things home for Aaron – he wants that family unit with Robert and Liv.

But when he then puts the idea to Robert that they have a child of their own through surrogacy, it is met with a lukewarm reception. Can they reach a compromise?

10 of Emmerdale's best Ross Barton storylines as he prepares to leave for good

It's been a wild old ride.

It's the end of an era in Emmerdale this week as we prepare to say goodbye to the one and only Ross Barton. Actor Michael Parr is bowing out of the soap after playing the dodgy mechanic for the last five years. And what a hectic half decade it's been for Ross!

Having been at the heart of countless hard-hitting storylines – and bed-hopped his way around the village – Ross is finally putting his troubles behind him as he seeks a fresh start with girlfriend Rebecca. (Whether she'll end up going with him is another matter.) Let's hope his new life will be a lot more relaxed, because his time in the Dales has been anything but.

Thanks for the memories, Ross. Here are your ten best bits...

1. His dramatic entrance

Ross took the meaning of keeping it the family to whole new level when he began bedding Debbie Dingle. Not only had he already sampled the delights of her mum, but Debs was also engaged to Ross's big brother Pete at the time. That didn't seem to bother Ross too much though, and after weeks of flirting up a storm, the naughty duo embarked on a hot and heavy affair.

2. His doomed relationship with Donna

After establishing Ross was a bit of a wrong'un, it didn't take long to realise he was also something of a womaniser. His early conquests included bedding Charity, but it wasn't until he secretly started dating copper Donna Windsor that we saw Ross was capable of having a relationship that went beyond rumpy-pumpy.

Unfortunately, the lovers ended getting themselves mixed up in a deadly game of cat and mouse with dodgy club boss Gary North. Ross agreed to carry out a job for Gary in order to protect his family, but it all went terribly wrong.

During a tense showdown on the roof of a multi-storey car park, Donna (who was terminally ill with lung cancer) took Gary over the edge with her, killing them both instantly.

3. His unlikely friendship with April

For anyone who'd written Ross off as a one-dimensional villain, his bond with Donna's 4-year old daughter April was enough to prove them wrong. The unlikely pair's magical friendship was formed when Ross was dating Donna, and much to everyone's delight, continued in the months following her tragic demise.

One of our all time favourite memories of Ross will always be when he dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow to put a smile on his little pal's face as she faced a painful first Christmas without her mummy. See, there was a softie lurking inside.

4. Who's the daddy of baby Moses?

Just as well Ross was a natural with gorgeous April, as it stood in him good stead for the next child who was about to enter his life. In 2015, the writers created a "Who's the daddy?" plot when Charity gave birth to a son called Moses while in prison. Ross was one of the potential baby daddies, along with Cain, and Charity's former husbands Jai and Declan.

The mystery was finally solved months down the line when Moses needed a life-saving operation and Charity summoned Ross to the hospital to introduce him to his boy. The bombshell rocked Ross's world as he struggled to believe one bunk-up in the back of the chop shop had created a life. The situation was made doubly awkward by the fact Ross was secretly sleeping with Charity's daughter Debbie at the time…

5. Sleeping with his brother's missus

Ross took the meaning of keeping it the family to whole new level when he began bedding Debbie Dingle. Not only had he already sampled the delights of her mum, but Debs was also engaged to Ross's big brother Pete at the time. That didn't seem to bother Ross too much though, and after weeks of flirting up a storm, the naughty duo embarked on a hot and heavy affair.

Debbie seriously considered ditching the dull brother for the dangerous one, but their plans to do a runner were thwarted when Cain revealed Ross was Moses's father. Ross found himself dumped, while Debbie ploughed on with her plans to marry Pete, completely unaware of the death and destruction their wedding day would bring.

6. His fake death

As predicted, some serious shiz went down at Debbie and Pete's wedding. Her affair was revealed over the airwaves during the bride and groom's first dance, then a helicopter crashed into the village hall well and truly brought an end to the reception. When Pete finally caught up with his brother a brawl broke out, with Ross ending up unconscious.

Pete thought he'd killed his betrayer and buried his body in the woods, and we all believed Ross had breathed his last. Even Michael Parr thanked fans on Twitter for their support, saying "it's goodbye from me".

A petition was launched to bring the character back, but just three weeks later it was revealed the whole thing had been a sneaky ruse, when Ross opened his eyes in a hospital bed.

7. Getting even with Pete

No-one does revenge quite like Ross. After initially pretending he was totes fine with the fact that his brother had left him to rot under a pile of leaves, Ross let his real feelings be known. After kidnapping his brother, Ross beat Pete unconscious. His victim awoke to find himself hanging head first over a viaduct by a winch.

Ruthless Ross enjoyed every second of his power trip, gently lowering the winch as his scared sibling pleaded for his life. He even went as far as demanding Pete sent a suicide text to their dad James. In the end, Ross couldn't go through with killing his own flesh and blood. What did we say about him being a softie?

8. Shooting Robert Sugden

Pretty much every single Emmerdale storyline in 2015 centred around a certain RB, and the 'Who Shot Robert Sugden?' plot was no exception. Ruthless Rob was public enemy number one in the village at the time he took a bullet, so there was no shortage of suspects for carrying out the crime. The writers came up with a genius way of revealing whodunit, which broke with their usual style of storytelling – a rewind episode.

During the gripping time warp, which aired on the soap's 43rd anniversary, the audience witnessed Ross enter into a murderous pact with Andy Sugden, as the boys agreed to kill each other's brothers. Ross kept true to his word, by pulling the trigger on Robert (although he lived to tell the tale), but Andy wussed out on his promise to do away with Pete.

9. Who pushed Emma?

Pete wasn't the only member of the Barton clan who Ross seriously considered doing away with. Having always experienced a turbulent relationship with mum Emma following her abandonment when he was a kid, Ross was the prime suspect in the frame for her murder. As well as a general disdain of his mother, there was also the added motive that Em had murdered his father and been responsible for the death of Ross's little brother Finn. Plus, Emma had tried to drown Ross when he was a child.

But despite dragging Emma to the viaduct she fell to her death from, and telling her to jump, Ross wasn't actually the person who pushed her. After the real murderer Moira had scarpered, Ross revealed to Pete that he had returned to the scene to save Emma, only to discover her sprawled dead below the bridge.

10. The horrific acid attack

The writers took Ross on his darkest journey to date in February of this year when he fell victim to a savage acid attack. It was a case of wrong place, wrong time for the mechanic when he agreed to help Debbie get even with her ex Joe Tate. Debs had arranged for drug dealer Simon McManus to beat up Joe, but in a case of mistaken identity, it was Ross who was targeted with a corrosive substance when Simon decided to use acid.

After suffering life-changing injuries, Ross began to rapidly spiral, becoming crippled by an addiction to prescription painkillers to block out the agony over his disfigurement.

Emmerdale airs Ross's final scenes on Friday (November 2) at 7pm on ITV.

Ross Barton says goodbye in Emmerdale

Emmerdale star Michael Parr speaks out over Ross Barton's exit and whether he'll return

"I feel like I'm breaking up with Emmerdale!"

Emmerdale star Michael Parr has opened up over his departure from the show, revealing that he'd like to return as Ross Barton in the future.

The actor's five-year stint in the role comes to an end next Friday (November 2) as Ross decides to rebuild his life away from the village.

Spoiler pictures for next week show Ross saying an emotional goodbye to his loved ones before leaving in a taxi, confirming that the door has been left open for a future comeback.
Speaking about his exit, Michael explained: "It's a mixed bag of anxiety, and happiness because there are other avenues that I want to explore. It sounds like a cliché, but I feel like I'm breaking up with Emmerdale and it's very sad!

"So it's sad ultimately but it's definitely the right decision for me at this time in my life. I'm flying to LA and I've got a few other friends out there. Adam Fielding, who played Kirin, is out there so we're going together.

"We're both going to live the American dream – until our money runs out!"
Asked whether he'd come back further on down the line, he replied: "Absolutely. I've had the best five years here. The opportunities that this job has given me to see the world, and help friends and family, have been amazing.

"I'm going to take the plunge and become a desperate dole-y actor again but hopefully I can come back and do a little bit more.

"If I get killed off-screen, you'll know I've annoyed somebody somewhere!"

Upcoming episodes see Ross planning to leave with Rebecca White, who later gets second thoughts when her plans to take Seb spark a backlash from Robert Sugden and Aaron Dingle.

With Rebecca dithering over her future, Ross prepares to go without her – but could she change her mind at the eleventh hour?

Jeff Hordley Crohn’s Disease: Emmerdale actor who plays Cain Dingle on the ITV show has battled the inflammatory bowel disease since 1996 – everything you need to know about the condition
THE Emmerdale actor who plays Cain Dingle in the ITV soap has been open about his Crohn’s Disease.

Jeff Hordley – who plays Cain Dingle in Emmerdale – has been living with Crohn’s Disease since his diagnosis of the inflammatory bowel disease in 1996.

The 48 year old was diagnosed with the condition when he was just 25 years old after suffering from stomach cramps and diarrhoea for six years.

Crohn’s Disease is thought to affect at least 115,000 people in the UK, including The Mummy Diaries star Sam Faiers and Rylan Clark-Neal’s mum, both of whom are ambassadors for Crohn’s and Colitis UK.

Here’s everything you need to know about Crohn’s Disease…

What is Crohn's disease and what are the signs?

Affecting any part of the digestive tube that runs from your mouth to your bottom, the symptoms can include mouth ulcers, stomach pain, weight loss, vomiting and diarrhoea.

Jeff told ES of his own symptoms: "As well as the diarrhoea and cramps I’d have episodes of horrendous stomach pains and vomiting. I dropped from 12 stone to nine – which is a lot when you’re nearly six foot – and I was really thin and pale."

How do you treat Crohn's disease?

After diagnosis, the course runs differently for everyone. Crohn’s isn’t curable but is managed and sufferers often go into remission, sometimes for years.

Initially medication is used to try and get the symptoms under control and calm down the inflammation in the digestive tract. This can include steroids and drugs to suppress the immune system.

Jeff has previously revealed he had surgery to remove the diseased part of the large bowel and to allow his "gut to heal".

Speaking about changes to his own diet, Jeff has previously explained how he’s adapted his eating habits.

What's the diet for someone with Crohn's disease?

There is no set diet that has been shown to improve Crohn’s but sufferers are advised to avoid those foods/drinks which irritate symptoms.

Speaking about changes to his own diet, Jeff has previously explained how he’s adapted his eating habits.

He told ES: "A nutritionist put me on a strict detox diet for two months – no alcohol, sugar, meat, wheat or dairy.

"It was tough but it worked. Zoe and I stopped eating processed foods, got an allotment, and cooked everything from scratch."

Crohn's disease in the long term

Long term it is often possible to wean off most drugs but sometimes the symptoms may flare and medication may be needed again for some time.

For some people whose symptoms are more difficult to control, surgery to remove sections of the digestive tract may be needed.

Crohn’s is an important disease that needs treatment and control. If you have any of the symptoms described, see your GP.

Some simple tests could catch it early and get you on the road to recovery as soon as possible.

Emmerdale spoilers: Ned Porteous confirms Joe Tate’s death as he says goodbye

Emmerdale fans have held onto the slightest, tiniest hope that Joe Tate might still be alive after that shocking turn of events in Emmerdale but departing actor Ned Porteous has confirmed that his suave character is indeed dead as he exits the soap for good.

Joe had returned to the village after Graham Foster urged him to leave as Kim wanted him dead. But not able to turn his back on Debbie, Sarah, Noah and indeed Graham himself, Joe revealed he couldn’t do it and arrived back at Home Farm.

In the meantime, Kim had seen the messages and had given Graham no choice but to finish Joe off once and for all. Armed with a gun, Graham headed out of the estate only to be stopped by Cain who wanted to know where Joe had gone after jilting Debbie.

At that point, Joe rocked up but before he could say a word, Cain had floored him with a punch. Unfortunately, Joe fell with such force that his head crashed off a rock. But what Cain doesn’t know is that the altercation hadn’t quite killed Joe.

His hand twitched while Graham was getting rid of the body at the viaduct and this forced him to seal Joe’s final fate before breaking down in tears.

Here, Ned reveals all on his shock exit from the soap:

So that was dramatic and unexpected – is that your character Joe Tate dead and gone?

Yes and such a lot happened in those last episodes. You saw Cain strike Joe to the ground. Joe therefore took a very serious wound to the head it initially appeared he was dead and Graham appeared to think so too, up until that pinnacle moment when his finger twitched in the car, so that blow to the head on the rock didn’t actually kill him. However, Graham knew he had to get rid of Joe. It looks like he was the one that ultimately ended Joe but Cain unwittingly thinks it was him who killed him. Will Cain take the fall for it?

How did it feel filming those last scenes?

It was tremendously exciting filming all of this last bit to the story as there had been a lot of build up to this point. We knew the course of this storyline for a good deal of weeks beforehand, so we had a lot of time to emotionally prepare for what was going on in the scripts. But I think I personally just focused on the work and concentrated on just producing some really good final scenes.

I don’t suppose I really had thought too much about the fact I was actually going to be leaving and maybe I wasn’t quite emotionally prepared – but everyone was just so bloody lovely on my last day, it was a little emotional.

So what are your plans now you have left?

I want to move back to London and I want to do a bit of travelling. I haven’t had a holiday for a very long time so I’m desperate first to get out to America, I’ve got management out there so I want to try my hand with the American casting system and then go on a little holiday, I think, I will turn my phone off, go climbing, go camping, go fishing.

Was it fun playing Joe Tate? During your time on the show you had some massive twists, the first being Tom Waterhouse…

This was the thing, as I feel like I had a chance to play two characters whilst I was on Emmerdale. Firstly, I had the Tom Waterhouse character and then the big reveal of the pseudonym. So yes, I suppose Joe managed to pack a lot of drama in during his short time in the village!

Do you love the twists and keeping the secrets from the audience?

That is one of the best things about working in a recurring drama like a soap. The fact there are so many little twists and turns constantly which keep the characters and the storylines so fresh.

It’s fun on Emmerdale to get the new script in and and go “oh wow what are we going to be doing this week?” Plus trying to keep it all as much as a secret as possible as that is what the viewers want, they want the surprise, they want the drama.

So was it hard keeping your exit a secret?

Yes and no. Of course people are always stopping you and asking you what is going on in your storyline. It is one of the main things about working on a show like this that you are constantly keeping your storyline secret. I think it’s for the benefit of everyone. It just becomes part of what you do and it becomes quite easy.

Did you take a souvenir, a prop or a bit of costume when you left?

I actually didn’t take anything in the end however I did have my eye on a few bits of costume I wanted to grab. Due to the last couple of days being spent working away on location I didn’t have time to organise it. I ended up just filming the scenes then saying my goodbyes to everyone. I then moved my stuff and moved down to London. Thankfully a few of the cast got me some really lovely thoughtful going away gifts so I will be able to keep them forever and cherish them. So that was really nice.

Have you got fond memories of your time on the show or is there one particular day of filming you will always cherish?

Without sounding cheesy, there are so many. I suppose the most memorable are when we had the opportunity to do something so different. One of the most memorable was when we did the quarry cliff stunt out at Chorley, that was two amazing days as it felt really different. We were away from normal Emmerdale and were out on location. We were all staying together at a hotel and it felt like we were all on a sort of action filled school trip. That was so much fun. It has been amazing to film things like that.

Emmerdale's Kim Tate and Graham Foster have a secret history that dates back years

Claire King and Emmerdale's official spoilers for next week have revealed that Graham double-crosses Kim by handing Joe a bag containing £100,000 and telling him to leave ASAP.

Later on, Joe is nowhere to be seen when Debbie anxiously waits to marry him at the hospital chapel. Is this because of Graham's intervention? If so, where is Joe?

Emmerdale kicks off Kim's return week on Monday, October 8 at 7pm on ITV.
Scarborough have revealed all.

Emmerdale star Claire King has revealed the full details of Kim Tate and Graham Foster's top-secret connection for the first time.

Next week's episodes will confirm that the pair are in cahoots, as Kim is released from prison and is greeted by Graham as soon as she's out.

Kim and Graham both share serious concerns over Joe Tate's recent behaviour, which has seen him prioritise his fiancée Debbie Dingle above everything else.

However, as the tense storyline unfolds, it's clearly Kim who's calling the shots when she warns Graham that it's time to get rid of Joe once and for all.

Speaking at an Emmerdale press event yesterday (October 2), Claire revealed: "Kim has been pulling the strings all along, but I don't know quite how far this goes back. It would be over 10 years and she's been under lock and key since then.

"Kim has been pulling strings from prison with Graham and Joe. Kim has been in control of them both, but now Joe has started going rogue.

"Kim and Graham have also got a romantic history. It's an interesting partnership between them and there's a lot of history there. You'll get to find out a bit more about that as next week goes on. It's good because it's not your average relationship. It gives us more to do and it's exciting."

Andrew Scarborough, who plays Graham, also revealed that the clues to a higher power at work have been in the Emmerdale scripts all along.

He explained: "Graham and Joe are both working for Kim. Graham has been saying things to Joe like: 'Don't push it, this is not what was agreed'. Graham doesn't mind Joe marrying Debbie, but he's insisting on the pre-nup.

"Kim wouldn't be happy over what Joe is doing, so Graham has been trying to keep him on track and make sure that he sticks to the plan."

Emmerdale's official spoilers for next week have revealed that Graham double-crosses Kim by handing Joe a bag containing £100,000 and telling him to leave ASAP.

Later on, Joe is nowhere to be seen when Debbie anxiously waits to marry him at the hospital chapel. Is this because of Graham's intervention? If so, where is Joe?

Emmerdale's Robron wedding was everything fans wanted and more
Meet Mr and Mr Sugden-Dingle!

The big day was finally here for Emmerdale fans on Friday night (October 5), as Robert Sugden and Aaron Dingle tied the knot.

The wedding was emotional, not just for the couple, but for fans of the soap who had long been wanting Robron to get their fairytale ending.

With a beautiful ceremony outside the village hall, things couldn't have been more perfect for the couple – and there wasn't a dry eye on Twitter.

But the happy occasion was tinged with sadness, after Chas and Paddy lost their baby daughter Grace just days ago.

Chas had wanted Robert and Aaron to go ahead with the wedding as planned, despite the circumstances, and she decided to postpone Grace's funeral until after they were married.

Before the ceremony, Chas even gifted the couple with a pink corsage each, saying: "The florist told me the colour means Grace."

But after Aaron and Robert left on their honeymoon, the emotions of the past few days overwhelmed Chas and she had a panic attack, saying she wasn't ready to say goodbye to her daughter.

In a heartbreaking scene, Paddy told the rest of the guests, "Go home, the party's over," as Chas sobbed.

Viewers praised the highly-emotional scene, especially the acting of Lucy Pargeter.

With Robert and Aaron now happily married, the villagers are going to need something else to look forward to.

Luckily, there's a masquerade ball next week, which is set to feature a very special guest

Emmerdale spoiler: Robert and Aaron's wedding day arrives

The Dingles pull together for the happy event.

Episode 8278 | Airs Friday, 05 Oct 2018 at 19:00 BST on ITV

It's the day of Robert and Aaron's wedding, but Paddy worries about how Chas will cope. While Robert gets ready, he tries to convince Victoria how sorry Aaron is for lying to her about Adam. Victoria is determined to put Robert first despite everything and agrees to attend the wedding.

Aaron hands Robert his old watch, which Aaron has had engraved with the dates of their two weddings. Later, with family and friends gathered at a pagoda outside the village hall, the wedding ceremony gets under way.

Meanwhile, when Rebecca questions Ross about his feelings for her, he responds by pulling her in for a kiss. She tenderly kisses him back. Things are getting back on track for the couple, until Ross spots Dawn. Dawn has information that Ross has waited a long time for.

Emmerdale star Danny Miller cheekily teases Robron wedding! And the wedding date!

It's not long now to the Robron wedding, reveals Danny Miller

Emmerdale has teased the soap wedding of the year, the one everyone’s been waiting for, yep Aaron Dingle and Robert Sugden – aka Robron – finally getting hitched!

Earlier in the day Emmerdale tweeted a picture of the order of service for the wedding, saying: “Welcome to The Wedding of Robert Jacob Sugden & Aaron Dingle”

And then they promised a big reveal on the Emmerdale Facebook page – but it was a bit of a wind up!

“Good afternoon to all you Emmerdale fans, it’s Danny Miller here. I’m just in the Emmerdale village and we’re filming something very special let me show you.” The camera then pans around and we don’t see anything! Naughty Danny!

“Ahh got you,” he declares, adding: “you’ll have to wait until October.”

So at least Emmerdale fans know that the wedding will take place in October and that it’s being filmed now, so it is happening.

Aaron and Robert’s relationship has been through so many ups and downs, but it finally looks like the pair might be happy.

Earlier this year, Danny told Radio Times: “I love Robron just as much as the fans do! Hopefully their wedding will make us all happy.

“It would be nice to not have any soap-style interruptions, but that’s not very likely! So that bit when they ask if anyone objects, the door could open… and it’s just somebody who’s late and they sit down at the back.”

Fingers crossed it goes off without a hitch, erm!

Emmerdale continues on ITV.
