Big discoveries lead to conflict in the village (Picture: ITV)

Tempers are flaring in next week’s episodes of Emmerdale, leaving relationships pushed to boiling point.

Cathy Hope (Gabrielle Dowling) is feeling vindicated and relieved to be given a diagnosis at last, but her symptoms soon erupt once more.

Having been informed that her condition will be managed rather than controlled, the teen lashes out, targeting Bob (Tony Audenshaw), Wendy (Susan Cookson) and Manpreet (Rebecca Sarker).

It then becomes clear that she isn’t giving up on finding a further solution – but can she?

Elsewhere, Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb) is seething as Cain (Jeff Hordley) is keeping secrets from her again.

However, she hasn’t got an inkling of what he is up to. It involves some kind of mysterious road trip with Caleb Miligan (William Ash) – what does he have to show him?

And will Moira discover what they’re up to?

In other developments, Lydia (Karen Blick) continues to suffer in secret in the aftermath of her traumatic ordeal, while, ahead of his exit after 17 years, David Metcalfe (Matthew Wolfenden) has an admission to make.

There’s relief all round as Cathy is officially diagnosed with PMDD. Bob’s sympathetic to Cathy’s condition but she’s left feeling disappointed and desperate when her treatment is to manage her symptoms instead of an outright cure.

Back at the B&B, an upset and volatile Cathy blindsides Bob by defiantly insisting she wants to find a cure to stop her PMDD symptoms.

Cain and Caleb make a pact to stick together as they head off on their mysterious road trip while Moira watches on, simmering that Cain has left when she’d asked him not to.
