Next Week’s Emmerdale Spoilers – 19th to 23rd December
Next week on Emmerdale, Cain makes a mysterious phone call, Marcus faces a night with Ethan’s boss, and will Kyle reveal all to PC Swirling?
Moira (Natalie J Robb) and Amy (Natalie Jamieson) continue to be on a knife-edge as they worry about the loose cannon that is Kyle (Huey Quinn). It’s become clear over the past few weeks, since their return to the village from Belfast, that Kyle is coming ever closer to revealing his killer secret to the wrong person.
After insisting on visiting dad Cain (Jeff Hordley) in prison last week, Kyle broke down in the visitors room, and couldn’t help but cry out as he apologised and blamed himself for Cain’s predicament.
Thankfully Amy and Cain were able to settle Kyle down before he said too much, but it was a close call, having drawn attention from the prison guards.

With all the stress of recent weeks, there’s the chance for the family to have some festive cheer in the village—heaven knows they deserve it—at the stroke charity fundrasier, but Kyle’s unpredictability means that Amy and Moira worry about letting him out of their sight for a single moment.
Resolving to try and put aside their worries, the ladies take Kyle and Isaac down to the event, where everyone is enjoying the performance by Charles’s (Kevin Mathurin) specially formed choir.

Facing what could be their worst nightmare, Moira and Amy swoop in quickly before Kyle can reveal too much.

Back at Butlers Farm, Moira and Amy try to interrogate Kyle on exactly what he said, but they only end up upsetting him further.
Moira tries to assure Amy that if they can give Kyle a Christmas he’ll never forget, he will be able to return to some normality. But as Amy struggles to pull herself together, Moira is beginning to have her doubts.
Meanwhile, in the prison, an officer hands Cain a letter—it seems someone has been writing to him frequently. But once the officer is out of sight, Cain rips up the letter, evidently not interested in what the mysterious person has to say.

When Kyle and Isaac later receive Christmas presents from an unknown person, Moira visits Cain in prison to see if he has any idea who has sent them. Cain evidently knows something, but he hides any concerns he has from Moira.
Cain later receives a card that Moira had brought in with her, left to him by his late mum Faith (Sally Dexter). Cain isn’t ready to read what Faith has said, and instead asks the guard if he can make a phone call. The guard tells him that he’ll see what he can do, leaving Cain on edge…
When Cain finally gets his phone call, he isn’t happy with the mystery person. Cain has to lower his voice as the prison officer keeps watch, but he ends up slamming the phone down after hearing a refusal from the other end…
We already know that Cain’s and Chas’s (Lucy Pargeter) long-lost brother Caleb (Will Ash) is set to arrive in the village on Christmas day; could this be who Cain is talking to?

Although nothing was said outright, Marcus got the distinct impression that Greg was flirting with him, and so makes an excuse to avoid lunch.
