Secrets, agony and conflict next week (Picture: ITV)

Next week’s Emmerdale episodes comprise of a lot of secrecy between couples, some tragic and others downright mysterious.

Lydia Dingle continues to be consumed by the pain of her trauma, after vile Craig raped her.

She has decided to keep her ordeal a secret from Sam (James Hooton), but it’s clear that everything is overwhelming for her.

As Sam and Samson (Sam Hall) obliviously get on with life, a tearful Lydia snaps at them, giving her husband an indication that something is on her mind.

But is Lydia ready to open up to him?

Elsewhere, Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) plans to take Caleb Miligan (William Ash) on a very secretive road trip – which has really tickled our intrigue.

It’s something that he is keeping from Moira (Natalie J Robb), but when she discovers his duplicitous lie, she is on the warpath – and wants answers!

Elsewhere in the village, after her diagnosis, Cathy Hope hits upon a treatment that she thinks will cure her.

Her loved ones are horrified by her risky decision, but it appears she won’t be changing her mind.
