Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Friday November 8.
The fight club fallout continued in Emmerdale tonight
Ross had nowhere to turn
Cain told Ross to pack his bags and get out. It then seemed everyone just thought Ross had actually upped and left without saying goodbye, but really he’d been beaten to a pulp and left barely conscious over the missing money and the police showing up at the fight.
Billy and Dawn found him and helped him home, where Charity was still fighting Ross’s corner to Cain. Seeing him bloodied and beaten did little to evoke sympathy in Cain, but Charity pestering him did. Cain relented and let Ross stay.
Ross obviously took Charity’s support as meaning she was definitely still into him and tried his luck again. Meanwhile Mack had the wind taken out of his sales when Ross revealed he was staying, but was still secretly smug about the money he has stashed away.
Billy and Dawn in trouble
Things were no better between Dawn and Billy. Billy knows he’s really messed up. And there isn’t really any way to put it right, despite his only real line at the moment being: “Look, Dawn, I’ll fix this,” he actually doesn’t have a hope in hell of fixing it.
Jade turning up only made things worse as she demanded her money back. But her threats didn’t scare Dawn who gave as good as she got and threw Jade out.
Will Jade work out who really has her cash? Or will Billy and Dawn suffer some more before Mack saves them?
John was exposed
Aaron woke up in hospital with Chas pecking his head about what he’d got involved in. PC Swirling then came to take his statement and Aaron stayed tight-lipped.
After more cross words with Chas Aaron admitted he was pushing John away. Right on cue John turned up and Aaron managed to open up a little, teensy, tiny bit. They agreed to start looking forward and not back.
As John left the hospital room, PC Swirling cornered him and thanked him for giving them the tip-off about the fights. So John was the one who squealed, but why? And what else is he hiding?

Tina turned the screws
Tina cooked Sam and Vinny a fry up to cure their hangovers, rubbing Mandy’s face in it as she engineered spending more time with Vinny. Mandy tried to talk to Sam about selling Wishing Well as per Tina’s demands, but he wasn’t interested.
Tina continued to wind Mandy up, performing karaoke in the Woolpack and singing Vinny and Mandy’s song together. Mandy couldn’t take any more and stormed out of the pub.
Mandy made a decision in Emmerdale tonight
Paddy followed his wife and found her crying. He demanded an explanation, especially after the secret Mandy kept about her financial struggles.
Mandy confessed Tina was blackmailing her and she was Vinny’s real mum. Paddy insisted she couldn’t let Tina win and Mandy took her power back, strongly saying Tina would not be threatening her again.
Can she really get rid of her though? Or is Vinny’s world about to come crashing down?
