About getting a sausage sandwich

Emmerdale (STV)

HARRIET heads off to perform a funeral service where Malone arrives to pressure her once more.

Eventually Dawn discovers the affair going on between Harriet and Malone, but the question is, what is she going to do about it?

Elsewhere, David bumps into Gaz, a man buying breath spray in the shop; the latter boasts that he’s on his way to meet a loose woman for a date – and David is gobsmacked when he realises it’s Leyla.

This encounter leads to more crossed wires than a 1940s telephone switchboard.

Later, Leyla overhears a noise in the Take a Vow office, and lashes out when a dark-clad figure jumps out at her.

Once Emmerdale PD are called, the penny finally drops for Leyla regarding the identity of her tormentor.

Meanwhile, Jamie confesses to a stunned Belle that it was him who was behind Moira’s hit-and-run.

She threatens to go to the police and is amazed when he seems almost relieved by the idea.
