EMMERDALE

■ FOLLOW THE LEYLA

How anyone in the village didn’t end up dead during lockdown is a miracle, but we’re back on track with people now able to hate each other away from home, albeit at a socially acceptable distance.

Andrea is hiding out at a hotel (has it been thoroughly sanitised? You see how we now have to worry about these things?). A police officer arrives to check on her, and Andrea assures them she is safe and well (another woman verging on psycho, but then Emmerdale’s cops couldn’t spot a vampire at a blood bank). She calls Leyla, who dashes to meet her, oblivious to a mystery figure keeping track of her from a white car (pictured). At the hotel, the figure is revealed to be Kim, and she means business; but will Leyla manage to keep her away from Andrea? Back in the village, Harriet is having second thoughts about marrying Will, but meets Malone in the church to tell him she doesn’t want him around (text him?). Excited by the danger, she eventually succumbs to his dubious charms. How many times has Harriet profaned the church with her antics? Hasn’t she heard of bedrooms? Hotels? Now they’ll have to sanitise the church, too. Moira looks as if she might be about to go on another man-eating expedition when Ricky flirts with her. One flutter of a bloke’s eyelashes and Harriet and Moira are pretty much anyone’s. Maybe they could take up a hobby other than sex. Knitting, perhaps.
