Emmerdale: Gillian Kearney plays Emma
Emmerdale's Gillian Kearney teases unlikely friendship
She could actually become a friend [with Moira], now that James is out of the way
18:50 - Nearly time to go! Refresh the page once Emmerdale begins for all our live updates.
19:00 - "I've been under a bit of stress," Emma snipes at her family. Yes, from KILLING SOMEONE!
19:01 - Oh dear... can Emma cope with the guilt any more? Is a confession looming?
19:02 - Can you imagine Zack ever leaving the village? Nope, us neither. But stranger things have happened...
19:04 - If Emma doesn't even attend the inquest, that would be one heck of an anticlimax. Will she?
19:05 - Eric walked right into that skydive confession, didn't he? Still, some welcome light relief amongst all the inquest doom..
19:06 - This scene of Marlon calling himself the "bin Yoda" is... odd.
19:08 - Crikey, Emma's not coping well, is she? "I'll never move on," she says. Wonder if she knows that confessing might be her best shot...
Emma struggles with her guilt
19:08 - "Things have a way of... coming out." Awkward!
19:09 - Meanwhile, Marlon has a rash on his face. High drama tonight indeed. "You've used ladies' cream?!" Ah, gender.
19:12 - Adam Thomas there, looking a little odd out of camp gear and presumably not smelling of cockroaches. Let's hope nothing surprising happens, or he might start shrieking...
19:14 - And we've hit the break! Will Emma come clean?
Will Emma confess to her involvement in James's death?
19:18 - "Well I'm very sorry for trying to hyrdrate and replenish." Marlon should do a cosmetics ad...
19:19 - Belle took that well... She really doesn't want Zak and Joanie to go.
19:23 - Here we go! Emma's turn to speak!
19:24 - This is buttock-clenching... do it, Emma, tell the truth!
19:26 - Oooh, what a cliffhanger! Emma says: "It's me it's all down to me that he's gone. James's death; it's all my fault and i'm sorry... I'm so sorry..." Is she fully coming clean? Or is this just a bluff?
she said it was her fault but let's hope she admits to actually pushing him in tonight's second ep! #emmerdale

Zack announces his plans to leave the village
20:00 - We're back, and the family think Emma is hinting that James killed himself. She's going to get away with it, isn't she...! Quelle surprise...
20:01 - Meanwhile, Tracy is dressed as the Virgin Mary...
20:03 - Emma's really getting into the swing of this elaborate lie now.
20:04 - Seems we'll have to wait a little longer for Emma to be brought to justice. At least she's popular:
Emma you lying cow!! ������������������ #Emmerdale

Emma gets into the swing of things at James's inquest
20:13 - Now Emma's apologising to his GRAVE... She's fully lost the plot.
20:14 - Is Harriet following Emma around?! Maybe she'll stumble upon the truth sooner or later.
20:15 - Getting threatened whilst dressed as a festive elf? We've all been there, Frank, don't worry.
20:17 - "There's things I could tell them that would break their hearts...," says Emma, but Harriet doesn't believe her. OH IF ONLY SHE KNEW!
20:18 - Emma! Just spit out! You! Pushed! Him!
20:22 - Moira SYMPATHISING with Emma... this is one of the weirdest developments of all!
20:24 - Oh dear - bad times ahead for Frank as he gets blackmailed.
20:25 - And that's the end of tonight's double whammy. What next for these plotlines?
Is this the beginning of a friendship for Moira and Emma?
Speaking on This Morning yesterday, actress Gillian Kearney hinted that whatever happens, viewers could see an unlikely friendship between Emma and Moira.
"Well she could actually become a friend, it could be the opposite now that James is out of the way," she told Holly Willoughby.
Emmerdale airs at 7pm and 8pm on ITV.
