Share Add as preferred source on Google Add as preferred source on Google By Carena Crawford 3 Mar 2026, 20:03 By Carena Crawford 3 Mar 2026, 20:03 DS Walsh in Emmerdale is like a dog with a bone as she is determined to nail Paddy Dingle for helping cover-up Ray’s death – so does that mean he’s leaving the soap? New evidence has come to light, which to us seems cirumstantial, but now she’s got the bit between her teeth, Walsh is not going to stop until she proves Paddy was involved. Paddy was taken in for questioning by DS Walsh (Credit: ITV) DS Walsh questions Paddy in Emmerdale again After visiting the vets last night (Monday March 2), Walsh spotted some rope that was the same as that used to tie up Ray. So tonight (Tuesday March 3) she called Paddy back in for questioning. Paddy was on the phone trying to get the solicitor to use Bear going to the secure mental health unit to help his case when Walsh turned up. She took Paddy to the station over the ‘new evidence’. Walsh presented him with a picture of the rope used to tie Ray’s body up. Given she’s seen the same rope at the vets she had put two and two together and made four. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Paddy stuck to his story and claimed it was just horse rope and loads of vets use it. He insisted even if it was the same rope it proves nothing as Bear could have got hold of it and has already confessed. He has a point – this evidence seems fairly wishy-washy to us! Paddy was released, but Walsh was like a terrier and she made it clear she was not letting this go. Paddy returned home and told Dylan and Mandy what had happened. However he told them he needed to stick to his story and it would all be okay. But will it?Don't miss a single story!

Paddy knew the net was closing in (Credit: ITV) Is Paddy leaving Emmerdale? Fans certainly don’t think the evidence is ‘credible’ as Walsh maintained – but they do think Paddy is in big trouble. “I think at this point Paddy is [bleeped],” said one on social media. “Uh oh that sneaky cop has connected Paddy to Ray’s murder thanks to that rope,” added another worried viewer. “DS Walsh was out to get Paddy,” insisted a third. However plenty wouldn’t be bothered if Paddy gets sent down with one saying: “Good, Paddy deserves to be in prison, so he can see how Moira feels.” Others echoed the sentiments. So whilst it’s not looking good for Paddy, what does this actually mean for his future? Is Paddy leaving Emmerdale? Nothing has been confirmed about Paddy’s future, but while Bear can claim self-defence due to his mental incapacity, the same can’t really be said for Paddy. What would his argument be? At the very least he’s going to be charged with perverting the course of justice by lying to the police. Can he really get away without a prison sentence? And does that mean he’ll have to leave the soap one way or another? What else happened in Emmerdale tonight, Tuesday March 3 There was drama elsewhere in Emmerdale tonight including Jacob catching Sarah stealing and Manpreet wanting ansers from Laurel... Jacob caught Sarah in Emmerdale tonight Sarah and Jacob were struggling to spend time together, but planned on lunch to put that right. However in the pub, Jacob was put on the spot again by Dr Todd and it was clear he is struggling with everything going on right now. Outside Sarah was jumping into a flash car about to speed off when Jacob caught her. Sarah made up an excuse, but Jacob didn't believe her as he knew it was Dr Todd's car. Jacob laid into her, demanding answers and she admitted to stealing cars to make extra cash - but she still didn't reveal the truth about Cain's cancer. Jacob stormed off and the couple are clearly in a mess. Laurel continued to lie Laurel was home from hospital and Gabby was worried about what's really wrong with her. Of course they have no idea she's lying to cover for Arthur. But Laurel had a wave of dizziness just as Dotty and Arthur returned home so Gabby decided to call Manpreet to come round and check her out. Manpreet managed to get Laurel alone and wanted the truth. Laurel continued to try and cover. She eventually lied she tripped over Dotty's toys on the floor and she didn't want Dotty to find out that's what happened. Manpreet bought it and Laurel breathed a sigh of relief. But how long before Arthur's actions do come out? Also in Emmerdale tonight... Nicola was teasing Kerry and Jai about their fling in the cafe.
