Emmerdale's Liam Cavanagh comes face-to-face with Ella in Friday's episode (ITV, 7.30pm, see our TV Guide for full listings).

Having been in a crash, Ella Forster's cut and bruised. She survived the smash and scraped through with minimal injuries but the same can't be said for her car which is a write off. 

So now, Ella is stuck in the village, the one place she really didn't want to be.

Soon enough Liam runs into his ex in the cafe. It's the first time they've laid eyes on each other since Ella's dark childhood secret – that she killed her friend – was exposed.
