Emmerdale spoilers: Does Matty Barton discover a SHOCK SECRET?
Airs Friday 4 November 2022 at 7:30pm on ITV
Matty Barton (played by Ash Palmisciano) is looking rather serious on tonight's episode of Emmerdale (7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
And it's no wonder...
WHAT a week it has been up at Butler's Farm, where Matty lives with his mum, Moira (Natalie J Robb) and her husband, Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley).
Earlier this week on the ITV soap, Cain lured village businessman, Al Chapman (Michael Wildman), to a barn at Butler's Farm to confront Al over his affair with Cain's married sister, Chas (Lucy Pargeter).
Cain and Al have been arch-enemies ever since Al got involved with Cain's daughter, Debbie, and later tried to take over and sabotage village pub, The Woolpack.
Cain was armed with a shotgun and determined to give love cheat Al a Halloween scare!
But things took a SHOCK turn when there was life or death struggle between the two men for control of the gun!
In the aftermath of Al's girlfriend, Kerry Wyatt (Laura Norton) hearing THAT gunshot blast from up at the farm, on tonight's episode, a shocking truth is told that could have devastating consequences...
