Emmerdale spoilers as body found in village and Sam Dingle turns to crime

It's been another eventful week in Emmerdale after Paddy Kirk's disappearance and tensions running high between Cain Dingle and his brother Caleb.

No doubt the biggest plotline at the moment is Paddy struggling with his mental health after finding out about his wife's affair. Writers are hoping that his story will help shine a light on men's mental health issues and the importance of talking about it.

In the latest episode, which aired on Thursday, Paddy could be seen getting on a bus to "escape" the village. It is unclear where he is going and whether he will return at all.

Body found

As Bob and Bernice ready themselves for the opening night of the B&B, Bernice suggests a harpist, who she seems quite taken with, for musical entertainment. She spends the night with him but on the next day, he is a no-show.

Bernice initially covers for him until Bob reveals he has found Tim, the harpist, dead.
