Robert Sugden Faces Dilemma as Moira Dingle’s Trial Begins in Emmerdale
The coming week in Emmerdale ramps up legal and emotional stakes for the residents of the village. Episodes airing between Sunday 12 and Friday 17 April bring new evidence, tense confrontations, and shifting alliances.
Evidence emerges to support Moira Dingle
A lead from Bear Wolf helps spark a crucial discovery for Moira’s defence. Robert Sugden visits Bear in prison and presses him for information.
Aaron mounts an urgent search while guilt over Mack weighs on him. Kyle goes missing and Robert eventually finds him hiding after overhearing Moira’s plans.
A phone tip from Bear points to a number plate once hidden for Ray Walters. The plate is traced to a storage unit in Hotten with help from Kammy and Marlon.
The correct unit is opened using a key remembered from Celia Daniels’ farm. Inside, the group uncovers material that could aid Moira at trial.
Robert Sugden faces a personal dilemma
Robert suggests he might hand himself in to protect Moira. Aaron initially refuses but persuades Robert to stay one more night.
Cain urges Moira not to plead guilty and tries to stop court proceedings. He arrives at the courthouse shouting about the new evidence.
DS Walsh develops a new theory about Bear Wolf
Police find bank records among the storage unit items. Those statements suggest Ray funnelled money into accounts linked to Bear.
Bear admits Ray once told him he would be “taken care of.” DS Walsh proposes Bear was Ray’s partner and may have killed him to take over the operation.
Paddy is alarmed when April Windsor is summoned as a prosecution witness. The prospect of her testimony leaves the family reeling.

Todd manipulates others, convincing Manpreet that Jacob is obsessed. Jacob arranges a shift swap, but the change still leaves him working with Todd.
Charity Dingle wrestles with guilt
Charity organizes a baby shower for Sarah Sugden to celebrate the expected arrival. She feels deep guilt over a secret betrayal tied to the pregnancy.
The situation raises questions about how long the truth can stay hidden from Sarah and Jacob.
