Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) takes action in Emmerdale next week as he gets fed up of Crowley’s (James Hillier) demands amid the grand plan to take down Kim (Claire King).
The businessman, as viewers know, is used to being in control of just about every situation, using people as pawns in his games in order to get what he wants.
Crowley, however, has managed to hit him where it hurts, with Joe realising earlier this week that he very much does not have the upper hand in this particular dynamic and situation.
After threatening to remove his kidney – the very kidney he placed in Joe just months ago – Crowley demanded that the young Tate hand over all his cash, rendering him penniless.
Who will win as this feud wages on?
-
Joe – he’s proven before he will always win
-
Crowley – he has Joe right where he wants him
But this was just the beginning, with another twist confirming that the dastardly doctor is none other than Kim’s new beau – and he’s intent on stealing her fortune too!
Playing with fire there, Crowley.
Next week, the dodgy doc continues to woo Kim, who doesn’t suspect any foul play as she grows closer to him. Joe, meanwhile, is very much on Kim’s side in this war and thus he makes it his mission to stop Crowley’s mad plan to steal her fortune.

Taking action, Joe organises a rendezvous with Crowley, who finds himself staring down the barrel of a gun upon arrival.
The question is: will Joe come out victorious? Can he reclaim his power? Or will Crowley be one step ahead?
