Can Robert and Aaron get a confession out of rapist Lee?
Emmerdale star Isabel Hodgins says Robert and Aaron will try to trap Victoria’s rapist next week because Robert feels he must act.
The 25-year-old actress, who’s returned to our screens sporting a new look, reveals how Robert wants to be there for his sister - so he and Aaron decide they must get a confession out of rapist Lee.

And, if they do get violent with Lee, will their actions ultimately make it even less likely that Lee will ever stand trial? And what will Victoria think of it all when she hears what they’ve done?
Emmerdale continues on ITV.
