Emmerdale fans will be protesting on Ryan Stock's behalf in next week's episodes when he gets arrested for lashing out at his rapist father DI Balis. Meanwhile, Robert Sugden's life is at risk when he suffers a health scare and collapses, having gone searching for missing Rebecca White. With another week in and still no sign of Rebecca, Robert isn’t the only one effected by her disappearance, as Ross Barton goes off the rails and steals from Pete to buy more drugs, and later leads Tracy Metcalfe astray. Whether or not Rebecca's disappearance comes to a conclusion next week is yet to be seen, but one thing's for sure – it will make for gripping viewing.
Ryan and Charity will both face tough weeks
Ryan arrested after attacking DI Balis
After confronting DI Balis to ask him to plead guilty in the trial, it isn’t long before Ryan is exposed to his father's true colours, causing him to lash out at him. Ryan's move causes Balis to fall over, and the police later come calling for Ryan and arrest him for assault. Charity, meanwhile, takes to the stand in court to open up about her traumatic ordeal with Balis, but struggles when Balis gives his own account of the past – claiming that he had deeply loved her. It isn’t long before it all gets too much for Charity, and she breaks down once she is back at home in the Woolpack, convinced that Balis will be found not guilty.
