Leyla Harding (Roxy Shahidi) was the target of a stalker in tonight’s Emmerdale (Wednesday 5th April), just as she was about to get passionate with Caleb Milligan (William Ash).

The pair have been getting rather friendly lately, and this week Caleb offered Leyla an apology after his advice on drug dealer Callum (Tom Ashley) led to her being kidnapped recently. From there, sparks began to fly and they spent the night together; but Leyla was wrongfooted the next morning when she received a phone call from the police, explaining that Callum had been released on bail.

Leyla was incredulous, and she confided in Caleb over the situation. Later, as her ex-husband Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) heard about Leyla’s liaison with Caleb, he found her looking upset – but she quickly revealed that she was scared that Callum would come after her again.

Liam took her for a drink at the Woolpack as she talked through her worries, while over at Home Farm, Kim Tate (Claire King) overheard husband Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) telling Nicky (Lewis Cope) that he had seen Caleb with Leyla.

Kim was not impressed, and when Caleb arrived to see her, she expressed concerns over their stud farm project – while he apologised for keeping quiet about Nicky’s relationship with Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham). But Kim questioned whether he was distracted by Leyla, putting their deal at risk as she issued him a stern warning.
