What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Eric got answers over his illness, Jai realised the truth and Tina’s still not gone for good
Pollard had us all in tears
Emmerdale tonight saw Eric get answers from Liam over his health crisis. Hopefully it’s all going to be okay and he’s vowed to keep fighting, but it really did have us worried for a while.
Meanwhile, Jai finally realised Caleb was not his mate, they were not business partners and he’s not going to get all of his money back. Whoops.
Here’s everything that went down in Emmerdale on Wednesday November 13.
Eric was seriously ill in Emmerdale tonight
Eric had not turned up for work and Tracy was pretty cross, but Brenda wasn’t worried. She should have been though as he was stuck in bed, unable to get up. He couldn’t get his legs to move and although he thought he had called Brenda and was begging her to help him, his phone was off.
Pollard managed to get himself moving and walked down the road in his pyjamas and slippers. Caleb found him and insisted on helping him. Pollard gave in and said he wanted to go to Liam’s house.
Liam told Pollard he was suffering from freezing, which was a symptom of his Parkinson’s. It’s all because there is a shortage of his usual medicine and he can’t get access to it. Poor Eric is suffering mentally as he believes his condition is worsening, but Liam reassured him it’s because of the medication.
Tearful Eric refused to be anybody’s problem. He even then went back to work where he encountered Caleb again. And although he vowed he wasn’t giving up his campaign against Caleb’s depot, there was a warmth developing between them.
The penny dropped for Jai in Emmerdale tonight
Caleb is clearly playing Jai, who wants to be in charge, but has been lumbered with marketing and costings. He,was not happy and he wants his money back, but Caleb was not interested in giving him a penny.
Will later warned Jai not to trust Caleb as he’ll try to take him for all he has. Alarm bells finally started ringing that he is being scammed. It took it’s time!
Meanwhile, Kerry tapped Jai up for a job, but he refused. However, Caleb then gave Kerry the job and Jai was not at all happy. It was all rather tedious as he tried to fire her, but Kerry said Caleb was in charge.
Jai later demanded his money back again and Caleb pretended to make a phone call to sort it all out. He claimed Jai will have his money by the end of the week. But Jai then checked his phone and realised Caleb hadn’t called anyone at all.
The penny is starting to drop and honestly, after the way Jai has behaved towards Laurel, we’re pretty pleased he’s ended up with egg on his face. The supposedly bright businessman has nothing left and he’s about to realise it…
No one knows whether Tina has gone for good
Vinny was moping (understandably) because he regretted not asking all the questions before Tina left. She’s staying with a mate in a caravan after Cain set fire to hers and Vinny decided to see her.
However he was too afraid to go in when he arrived. He saw Tina from a distance and heard what he thought were his siblings so rushed back to offload on Gabby in the Woolpack. He even momentarily spoke to Mandy to tell her what had happened. Mandy thought it was good that Vinny didn’t want to see Tina and her kids, but Gabby told her as long as Tina is nearby, Vinny will always wonder.
Will Mandy now act to get rid of Tina for good? Has Tina really left the soap? Or is there one final showdown ahead?
Also in Emmerdale tonight…
Nicola went to see Jimmy and offloaded what had happened with Angel yesterday. They agreed to present a united front and talk to their daughter together.
Jimmy insisted he wanted them back home as that’s clearly what Angelica wants too. Nicola got her hopes up, but then stupid Jimmy refused to kick Tom out and it was back to square one. When will he stop choosing that violent abuser over his own family we wonder?
