Marlon started to fear the worst as he took his frustrations out on the police in Emmerdale tonight as they found some worrying evidence.

Elsewhere, Dawn shared her suspicions over Joe with Kim – but, did he kill Will?

Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight on Monday, December 30.

Police found contraceptive pills in April’s bedroom

Marlon was still feeling sick to his stomach tonight as he sat down with the police as the search for missing April continued.

He relived the argument he’d had with April the day before she went missing, also filling the police in on her finding out how Donna really died.

Police then asked if they could search April’s room, making a rather shocking discovery as they returned with contraceptive pills they’d found. Although, Marlon made things difficult by lashing out at them for not doing enough to bring his daughter home (a bit harsh!)

Marlon then started wondering if April had been secretly seeing a boy, worrying that they’d forced her to take the pills and leave her home.

Police then took April’s electronic devices, hoping that they’d find some sort of name that could help lead them to April.

The episode ended with Marlon looking all sad out of a window, as if April would just magically appear before his very eyes.

Dawn suspected the worst from Joe in Emmerdale tonight

Dawn’s a fast learner as she’s already figured out that trouble always follows Joe Tate. So, when he suddenly reappeared and turned up at Home Farm just moments before Will’s heart attack, she deciphered that it couldn’t have been a coincidence.

Speaking to Kim, Dawn asked her if she could help her with her dad’s funeral plans. Kim though suggested that Dawn should take some time to grieve first.

Dawn then shared her concerns that Joe might’ve had something to do with Will’s death, but Kim pointed out that Joe didn’t even know Will (covering her tracks and all that.)

Not buying it, Dawn then threatened that the truth would come out at the post mortem.

Anthony was suspicious of Cain

Anthony didn’t get a good vibe from Cain today (but, maybe it was just that his green smoothie didn’t agree with him.) He even made his discomfort known to Charity, noting that Cain was rather rude to him.

Charity and Ruby both told Anthony that he shouldn’t be worried. That was just typical Cain (Anthony has A LOT to learn there.)

But, little did he know was that Ruby was actually trying to stop him from learning the truth about her moment of passion with her husband’s brother. Talk about messy.

Also in Emmerdale tonight

Jacob arranged a date with Sarah but ended up leaving her sitting all alone in the pub whilst he headed out for lunch with his mum. Nice.

Leyla then tried to warn Jacob off dating so that he could focus on his final year of studies before becoming a doctor. But, when love’s at play, it’s never that easy to stay away…
