Emmerdale’s Moira Dingle to threaten Samson over his lies
Samson's bad behaviour comes back to haunt him.
Emmerdale spoilers follow.
Emmerdale‘s Moira Dingle takes drastic action next week as she struggles to cope with her son Matty being in prison.
Moira decides that it’s time for a showdown with Samson Dingle following his ongoing lies over Matty’s actions.
Last week, Samson and his troublesome friend Josh both tried to intimidate Matty while he was closing up at The Hide.
As the situation got out of hand, Josh pushed Samson in Matty’s direction. This caused Samson to be accidentally stabbed by the knife that Matty was holding.
Since then, Josh and Samson have both lied that Matty deliberately attacked Samson. This week’s episodes see Matty sent to prison on remand ahead of his trial.
Next week, Moira heads to the jail alongside Matty’s wife Amy. It’s clear that Matty isn’t coping, feeling the pressure to hide the fact that he’s trans following advice from a police officer.
Matty is visibly on edge when Moira mentions his medication. He also reveals that he hasn’t showered since he arrived at the prison.
Over at the Dingles’, Samson gets ready for work but is unsettled when Matty’s stepdad Cain turns up.
Cain points out that Josh is the root cause of the problems and begs Samson not to let Matty rot in jail. However, Cain is forced to report back to Moira that Samson is sticking to his false allegations.
Moira vows to take matters into her own hands and she seizes her opportunity when she spots Samson and Josh drinking together at The Woolpack.
When Samson heads to the pub toilets, Moira follows him with dark intent. Can she frighten him into changing his story?
Emmerdale will air these scenes on Tuesday, June 18.
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
