Al Chapman (Michael Wildman) promised to wait for Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) as they reluctantly ended their affair in tonight\u2019s Emmerdale<\/a> (24th August).<\/p>\n

Chas and Al have been seeing each other in secret for several weeks, all while Chas\u2019s mother Faith Dingle (Sally Dexter) copes with her terminal cancer diagnosis<\/a>. Chas couldn\u2019t resist temptation and ended up back in Al\u2019s arms at a hotel this week \u2013\u00a0which was where her cousin Belle Dingle (Eden Taylor-Draper) spotted them kissing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Belle confronted them the following day, making her disgust clear over their behaviour. Belle wanted to reveal the truth to Chas\u2019s husband Paddy (Dominic Brunt), but Chas begged her not to and even brought up Belle\u2019s own past misdemeanours to throw in her face!<\/p>\n

Belle gave as good as she got when she reminded Chas that she had a daughter whose life would be turned upside down \u2013\u00a0a fact that Chas hadn\u2019t been too concerned over while she was getting passionate with her secret lover.<\/p>\n

Eventually, Belle bargained that she would keep quiet as she couldn\u2019t bear to cause unwell Faith any extra stress, but Chas would have to end things with Al once and for all. Chas agreed, thanking her relative for her silence. But Belle made it clear that she wouldn\u2019t hesitate to speak out if the pair reignited things between them.<\/p>

Tonight, Chas tried to focus on Faith again, and the mother and daughter enjoyed a country walk. But as Faith began to struggle, Chas was saddened by yet another painful reminder that her mum was dying<\/a>. Faith flagged down a nearby farmer to give them a lift back to the village, and on the way, she offered some words of wisdom.<\/p>\n

She told Chas not to make the same mistakes she had over the years. While Faith had no idea what Chas has been up to recently, the advice struck a chord with the younger woman.<\/p>\n

Chas later met up with Al to tell him they were finished for good, but Al replied that he still wanted her. With Chas seemingly swayed, he drew her in for a long kiss which she reciprocated, but she pulled away, insisting that she couldn\u2019t do this any more.<\/p>\n

Al then vowed that he would wait for however long it takes to be with her. He was determined that their relationship meant something \u2013\u00a0but does Chas feel the same?\u00a0And how will their big secret be exposed, as affairs inevitably are in soapland?<\/p>\n
