On Thursday March 26 the Dingles went to war with the Tates after stealing the cows from Robert’s farm. The whole way through Joe was chasing the cattle and for once the Dingles were one step ahead all the way. From Charity faking going into labour, Joe Tate’s desperate hunt for the herd and the Dingles all laughing at the end as the Tates realised what had happened, it felt like the light-hearted Emmerdale of old. And fans loved it. Cain denied all knowledge (Credit: ITV) Top moments from Emmerdale tonight With the cows being stolen, Joe was sure the Dingles were behind it. Of course they were, but could Joe prove it? With Dingle decoys left right and centre, it really was a family theft. And they certainly pulled it off in style! Joe was horrified at Charity’s predicament (Credit: ITV) 1.

Yes Belle, love this! (Credit: ITV) 3. Ballsy Belle She’s been quiet of late, but boy did she deliver tonight. Having taken charge of selling the stolen herd, she was not going to let the dodgy buyer get one over on her. Listing just how scary her brother Cain was, Belle refused to sell unless she got the right price. In fact, she ended up getting more money than was originally agreed. We like this side of Belle. Shame this was all a trick (Credit: ITV) 4. Kim and Chas in Emmerdale tonight Chas might have been playing Kim, but their scenes were still really good. And drunk Kim was amazing. We found ourselves thinking these two would make a good friendship for real. Let’s make it happen. Uh oh, Joe’s lost this one (Credit: ITV) 5. The smug smile wiped off Joe’s face Joe really thought he was going to locate the cows by following the bull’s tracker. And then when he found it tied to a tree it was priceless. The egg is well and truly on your face Joe. And it’s about time. The Dingles laugh at the Tates (Credit: ITV) 6. The Dingles The last shot of the Dingles laughing as the Tates walked away with their tails between their legs sums up the whole character of the show. It gave heart, it gave humour and it gave the good guys winning for once. Bravo. Joe did not win this time (Credit: ITV) Fans react to Emmerdale tonight After many complaints about the doom, gloom and darkness of late, Thursday’s episode was a huge hit. “Today’s episode felt so fabulously old school – the Dingles and Tates at war over a herd of cattle! So many laugh out loud moments as well,” shared one on social media. They added: “It’s been great seeing the show really embracing the farming element again after so long.” A second wrote: “Today’s Emmerdale… INCREDIBLE! I love a good family feud. Dingles Vs Tates. Just like the good ol’ days.” “That episode was perfection. 10/10 no notes,” added one more. A further commenter said: “Another brilliant episode of Emmerdale tonight. I thought yesterday’s ep would be this week’s highlight but today’s ep perfectly captured what Emmerdale is all about. Farming and comedy drama. Whoever wrote and produced today’s ep big props to them. More of today please!” Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
