Is Dylan dead? Can April and Marlon find a way out of this mess? And how much worse can Celia get? Well, although it seems she has won the battle this time and silenced her enemies, the end is definitely nigh for Celia and we have evidence. Here’s everything we know. April and Rhona were terrified of Celia (Credit: ITV) Emmerdale tonight – Rhona, Marlon and April terrified A rollercoaster of an episode aired tonight (Thursday December 4) after Celia paid April, Marlon and Rhona a visit. She knew April had confessed all and wanted to make sure it went no further. The family were just getting ready to go to the police when Celia walked in. Despite April’s killer confession over Callum, Rhona and Marlon knew the police was their only chance. But Celia arrived all smiles telling them to hold off and watch her phone. She propped it up as Ray video called her. He had been with Dylan and they had supposedly agreed to go to the police themselves to see Celia stopped. But in fact, Ray was double-crossing Dylan and about to do Celia’s worst bidding yet. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Ray knocked Dylan down and left him for dead (Credit: ITV) Is Dylan dead in Emmerdale? Viewers will remember Celia had told Ray to sort Dylan out, and that’s exactly what he did when he asked the teen to open the gate and then proceeded to mow him down. Ray then injected him with something – which we now know to have been heroin so it looked like Dylan had fallen off the wagon – and left him to his fate. April screamed and cried as she watched the whole thing play out at home. But Celia wasn’t done with them yet. Rhona tried again to stand up to her, but Celia grabbed her, forcing her nails into Rhona’s cheeks, growling: “Your family is now my family…cars crash, houses burn, throats get slit, death is indiscriminate.” It was a chilling moment and the family certainly got the message loud and clear. Meanwhile, Dylan had been picked up by an ambulance – presumably called by Ray – and taken to hospital. Paddy and Mandy were there and told to prepare for the worst. The episode ended with everyone believing Dylan had caused this himself by relapsing. He’s in a coma and no one knows if he’s going to live or die. It’s time for Ray to go (Credit: ITV) When will Celia and Ray get their comeuppance in Emmerdale? Marlon has promised Rhona they will find a way out of this. And he has vowed to protect April and stop her dealing drugs. He just doesn’t know how quite yet (tell Cain!) So whilst this week has been a major step forward in the storyline, it’s not over yet. However we know the end is coming. How do we know? Let’s take a look… Rhona was hurt by Celia who meant business (Credit: ITV) 1. Jaye Griffiths has confirmed her character’s exit So this is the big one – and reportedly she’s already filmed her final scenes. Speaking about her character’s exit, Jaye confirmed that she knew it was coming. She said: “I knew it was finite, which I am very sad about, because I would like to stay forever, but it’s such a strong arc.” She described working at Emmerdale as ‘heaven,’ adding: “It’s one of the nicest places I’ve ever worked, and I’ve done a little bit of work before! It is gentle and kind and professional and funny, and people care that it’s good. People care that we tell the story properly. It’s a joy to come to work.” Everyone now knows the truth (Credit: ITV) 2. Too many people know the truth about Celia in Emmerdale Whether or not Dylan survives the crash, April knows everything, Marlon and Rhona do too and it’s clear Ray is wavering as he grows closer to Laurel. Plus Bear is starting to get suspicious – he saw blood on Ray’s number plate and Dylan has mentioned Paddy to him. There is no way Celia and Ray can keep this hidden for much longer. Too many people know too much. Moira slaps Celia when she finds out the truth (Credit: ITV) 3. Moira is on the case Spoilers for later in December have revealed that Moira Dingle finds out Celia has been scamming her. She discovers invoices that prove Celia has forged her signature for a shedload of turkeys. Moira confronts Celia and issues her a slap, telling her to stay away from her and her business. But Celia comes back fighting managing to make herself look like the injured party. A meeting between the two sees Moira determined to bring Celia down, but she is nervous over how to do it. And she should be nervous because we know Moira is in it up to her neck. If only she had a hardman husband, like, say, Cain Dingle, to help her, eh… Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
