Portable dialysis machine?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And while he seems intent on Noah\u2019s help, another pointed out that due to Noah\u2019s overdose storyline back in 2019, his kidney\u2019s probably wouldn\u2019t work for Joe.<\/p>\n<p>They wrote: \u201cIf that machine is Joe\u2019s dialysis, then what use would Noah\u2019s kidney be? After his overdose years ago, could he even be a donor?\u201d<\/p><div class=\"dbxgas:ad-container dbxgas:double-mpu-container dbxgas:block dbxgas:md:hidden\"><div class=\"dbxgas:slot\" data-ad-slot=\"inarticle\"><\/div><\/div>\n<p>A fan responded: \u201cI don\u2019t think he can. Which is maybe what Joe found out when he was drugged and so he let him go. The overdose happened after Joe had left, so he may not have known about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joe\u2019s clearly going to extreme lengths to get something, and many have wondered why he just doesn\u2019t ask for help. But with his time clearly running out, it doesn\u2019t look like we have much longer to wait.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more: <\/strong><strong><a title=\"Permalink to: 15 Emmerdale spoilers for next week: Three funerals, Sarah pregnant and Dylan returns\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvguide.co.uk\/emmerdale-insider\/2025\/02\/25\/15-emmerdale-spoilers-next-week-three-funerals-sarah-pregnant-dylan-returns\/\">15 Emmerdale spoilers for next week: Three funerals, Sarah pregnant and Dylan returns<\/a><\/strong><\/p><div class=\"dbxgas:ad-container dbxgas:double-mpu-container dbxgas:block dbxgas:md:hidden\"><div class=\"dbxgas:slot\" data-ad-slot=\"inarticle\"><\/div><\/div>\n<p>[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vugyyqW8fbI?si=Y8ufsyozLYPCuTMO]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emmerdale usually airs weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV, with an early release at 7am on ITVX.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Classic Emmerdale usually airs weekdays at 6am and 6.30am, plus 1.40pm and 2.10pm on ITV3.<\/strong><\/p><div class=\"dbxgas:ad-container dbxgas:double-mpu-container dbxgas:block dbxgas:md:hidden\"><div class=\"dbxgas:slot\" data-ad-slot=\"inarticle\"><\/div><\/div>\n<p><em><strong>Follow our Facebook page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/people\/Emmerdale-Insider\/61563250212838\/\">@EmmerdaleInsider<\/a> for the latest Emmerdale news, spoilers and gossip.
