Emmerdale lines up gun horror for Moira Dingle as she makes dramatic return

Emmerdale has confirmed Moira Dingle's return to the ITV soap, and she's in for dramatic scenes.

The character recently took some time out of the village after her split from husband Cain Dingle.

Her affair with his secret son Nate Robinson tore them apart, sending her on a wine-fuelled downward spiral.

After being taken to hospital and things escalating, she pushed everyone around her away.

She quickly decided to flee the village for a while, wanting to get back on track.

Next week, she's back in the village and it looks like it comes at just the right time.

Her son Matty is in grave danger, along with pal Amy Wyatt, as they're harassed by a group of rustlers.

The cattle thieves are rumoured to be in the area, with Cain fearing they will target the farm.

Matty says he can handle it and refuses his and Sam's help, especially after recent events with his mum.

Instead he asks Vinny to help out, and it isn't long before the rustlers are spying on the farm in the distance.

Matty has no idea the danger he is in as it becomes clear the group are targeting them.

Later on in the week, Matty and Amy are alarmed to find some of the sheep have escaped.

Matty refuses to call Cain despite Amy's concerns, but he may regret it as the group soon confront the pair.

They're chased through the woods, only to be surrounded by them.

Luckily for them Moira soon appears wielding a shotgun, threatening the group to leave her son alone.

But will they listen, or is this just the start of their turmoil?

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
