Emmerdale's Paddy Kirk is lying to his wife in Thursday's first episode (ITV, 7.00pm see our TV Guide for listings).
So Paddy's committed a crime… with the best of intentions.
Wanting to help his wife Chas save her family-run pub from going under and having to accept ruthless Al Chapman's investment, village vet Paddy has doped a horse for Kim Tate in exchange for cash.
Kim Tate's chuffed as the horse won a race and now she wants stressed-out Paddy to repeat the dodgy deal.
Paddy is on edge as clueless Chas asks him if he's got more lucrative work coming up at the racecourse. Will he tell his wife what he's done?
Later, Paddy is alone with Kim having another awful conversation about the doping arrangement. The vet is in a terrible spot and his turmoil doesn't go unnoticed by Al Chapman who's lurking about.
Has Al heard what Paddy and Kim are talking about? Is Paddy about to find himself in deep with another of Emmerdale's nasties?

Can Priya swallow her opinion and be there for the struggling wedding planner?
