There’s been a dark cloud following Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) around Emmerdale ever since he almost kissed Kammy Hadiq (Shebz Miah). He’s spiralled and started questioning what it means for his sexuality, and whether he does fancy his pal.

Vinny is now faced with the reality that he might ruin Gabby’s (Rosie Bentham) life, and rather than do that, he’d sooner lie to himself. But he may not have a choice thanks to Mike.

In a bid to find some answers for himself, Vinny turned to the internet. He came across Mike, who seemed to be a like-minded friend.

Mike probed Vinny on whether or not he was gay and reassured him everything he was going through was normal.

But Vinny found himself in even more turmoil when he arranged to meet Mike knowing that it’s not right, but later snogged Gabby to remind himself of their love.

Vinny and Mike’s friendship progressed, and after Vinny received an urgent message from Mike, Mike arrived at Vinny’s revealing he’d been kicked out by his partner.

As Vinny fumbled over how to help his friend, Mike hinted there is something between them, leaving Vinny more awkward than ever. He denied it, which saw Mike flip out.

Vinny tries to move on, but he’s horrified when the police arrive at the scrapyard. They ask him if he knows a man called Graham going by the name of Mike. Vinny has already paid him off, but now Mike’s being investigated for extortion.

And if Vinny is pulled into an investigation, it’s going to make it pretty difficult keeping who Mike is from Gabby.

Will Vinny bow out of the investigation and allow Mike to get off?

Or will he come clean to his future wife?
