Emmerdale has taught us a lot over the years. To stay away from barns, mostly. Not to mention viaducts, lakes, woods, and limos<\/a>. And this week\u2019s Emmerdale review is no different.<\/p>

<\/div><\/div>\n

But this week, it\u2019s taught us a lot of medical stuff. We\u2019ve watched our fair share of Casualty, Holby and Grey\u2019s Anatomy and we\u2019re pretty sure we\u2019re virtually fully qualified doctors now \u2013 and this week\u2019s Emmerdale has just topped up our knowledge of illness, drugs and, erm, illegal organ transplants.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything we learned in this week\u2019s Emmerdale review.<\/p>\n

\"Joe
\u201cHello, is that the kidney shop? Yes I\u2019d like to buy one Tate kidney please. Quick as you can\u2026\u201d (Credit: ITV)<\/figcaption><\/figure>

Joe needs a kidney!<\/h2>\n

So it turns out Joe\u2019s got chronic kidney disease<\/a>, he\u2019s getting sicker by the day, and he desperately needs to find a donor. But is the answer to this to go via normal channels and get on the transplant waiting list? Of course not. It\u2019s to sneak around, and plan to nick a kidney from the first relative who happens to walk past. We\u2019re completely bewildered as to why this has been Joe\u2019s plan all along, but we\u2019re loving the drama of it all!<\/p>\n

We\u2019re also a little bit obsessed with creepy Dr Crowley. He seems to just appear without anyone ever seeing him. Is he even real? Maybe this whole thing\u2019s happening in Joe\u2019s head?!<\/p>
