Laurel Thomas has some BIG questions for husband Jai Sharma in Thursday's episode of Emmerdale on ITV at 7.30pm (see our TV Guide for full listings). Will Jai finally fess up to what happened between him and Amit? And how will Laurel react?

Jai's been wrestling with Pollard knowing the details of how he coerced Amit into signing over his share of the business - and brother Suni's too.

Pollard's been taking advantage of Jai's secret, but Jai's getting fed up with it.

So when Pollard shows up at the Hide, there's a tense exchange between the men.

And Laurel sees it.

Later, Suni turns to Laurel for advice about whether to leave with Nicky. Laurel tells him Jai would be sad to see him go, leaving Suni - who's in the dark about what his brother has done - thoughtful.

When Pollard doesn't pay for his drinks, he tells Laurel to ask Jai about why. She does as he suggests and goes home to confront Jai about what's going on.

Will he confess to his crimes?
