The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Emmerdale that hasn’t aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX.

John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) has uncovered some huge information about Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) in Emmerdale.

The two siblings have been involved in a tiresome back and forth ever since Robert returned to the village. John wants Robert gone because he’s worried about Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) getting back with him, while Robert wants to see the back of John because he’s convinced he is too good to be true.

Robert’s views on John were highlighted in this evening’s episode when Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) arrived at his house. The local GP had been asked by John to check in on Robert, believing his time in prison was having a serious impact on his mental health.

Liam wanted to talk to Robert about life behind bars, and how the trauma has impacted him today. When Robert found out that Liam was only visiting because John asked him, he focused on the fact he thinks his sibling is bad news, rather than opening up about his past.

Unbeknownst to them both, John was listening in on this conversation as a result of planting an audio bug in the living room.

While Robert didn’t tell Liam anything that made John’s ears prick up a great deal, he did say something that left John smirking later in the day.

As Liam left, John witnessed Ray (Joe Absolom) heading to Robert’s door. Back in the van, John discovered that Robert was the one who stole the weed from Ross Barton (Michael Parr) and Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) a couple of weeks ago, and then sold it to Ray.

Before the week ends, John will find Ross in the street and reveals to him that he’s discovered something about Robert.

Ross doesn’t like Robert at the moment because he’s suspicious that he stole the weed. He currently doesn’t have any confirmation it was him – so what will he do next if John reveals the truth?
