Bear is having a hard time in Emmerdale spoilers

Life hasn’t been that easy for lonely Bear of late. The former wrestler was left broken-hearted after thinking Paddy and Mandy were trying to force him out of Tenant House, only to realise that wasn’t the case.

But that’s not the only thing that’s been troubling Bear. Paddy’s dad has also been suffering from insomnia and is having long periods of being unable to sleep.

Concerned for his wellbeing, Mandy and Paddy both persuade Bear to go and discuss the matter with Liam. Bear goes to his appointment, and is prescribed with sleeping tablets to help with his condition. But will they do the trick?

Bear makes a foolish error

Returning home from seeing Dr Liam, Bear is in need of a rest. Little Eve is round, and Bear promises to treat her to some sweets if she stays quiet. Excited Eve takes her grandad up on the offer and he heads out of the house, leaving his pills behind in the kitchen.

With Mandy and Paddy asleep in the house, Eve is left unsupervised and bored. But she soon finds something to occupy her interest when she spies Bear’s brightly-coloured pill box.

Unaware of the peril she’s in, Eve opens the lid of the pill box and starts playing around with the sleeping tablets. Will she decide to try one for herself?
