Nicola and Dawn square up over Lucas and Carl fight in Emmerdale

Carl has been texting Clemmie for a few days now and it seems they are sweet on each other. But as they’re only 10 and 11, Nicola and Dawn didn’t think much of it.

However, tonight Nicola got a call to say Carl had been hit at school. Dawn then found out Lucas was the one who punched him.

Both mums got their kids home and tried to find out what had happened. But neither lad was talking. So Dawn dragged Lucas over to apologise.

But Carl still wasn’t speaking and Lucas refused to say sorry. Nicola placed the blame firmly on Lucas, and that made Dawn angry. Both mothers were unable to calm the situation so Dawn left and Nicola promised to protect Carl whatever it costs.

Clemmie photos the reason for Lucas and Carl bust-up

All will be revealed on Friday when the police turn up to see the Kings and the Tates. They reveal that Clemmie has sent an indecent image of herself to Carl. Carl then shared it with his mates and somehow it’s gone around the whole school.

Carl admits he did send the picture and the police take this sort of offence very seriously. Nicola is desperate to protect her boy and insists he’s learned his lesson, but that’s not good enough for the cops.

Dawn also wants this sorted via the official channels. But she does talk to Clemmie about it. When Clemmie reveals why she sent thr photo, Dawn is awash with guilt.

Dawn decides she and Nicola should talk mother to mother, but it doesn’t go well. Nicola is defensive and the conversation becomes an argument.

Nicola turns to Laurel for support, but that then descends into a row too. Finally, they both discuss the situation and realise how out of touch they are over their kids’ online habits. They agree they must work together to protect them from the dangers of the internet and social media.

Meanwhile, guilty Dawn opens up to Joe about her own past and how she was coerced into sex work and drugs. She vows to protect her kids in real life and online. But is it really that simple? And how can the families resolve this and move forward?
