Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) returns and crosses a line with sister Tracy Metcalfe (Amy Walsh), and she has some big news for old flame Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins).<\/p>\n

Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) wants revenge and leaves Ellis Chapman (Aaron Anthony) for dead, news of an engagement spreads, and the fallout from Christmas continues to be felt.<\/p>\n

Here are all your\u00a0Emmerdale<\/a>\u00a0spoilers for 3rd \u2013 7th January 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tracy and Nate over for good?<\/h2>\n

Words can\u2019t express how disappointed we are in Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) for actually cheating on lovely Tracy. And to think we swallowed his lying protests of \u201cBut I only flaked out drunk on the sofa! Nothing happened!\u201d Having given his son the benefit of the doubt, Cain is incandescent to learn the truth and refuses to let him stay at Butler\u2019s. Quite right.<\/p>\n

Tracy\u2019s protective big sister Vanessa has returned to support her sibling and refuses to let Nate visit his baby girl. This backfires when Trace expresses how upset she is that Frankie\u2019s daddy hasn\u2019t bothered trying to see her, and Vanessa feels guilty knowing she secretly banned Nate from making contact. How will Tracy react when she discovers V told him to stay away?<\/p>

Vanessa has a bombshell for Charity<\/h2>\n

Vanessa\u2019s return will certainly be welcome for the viewers (Hardwick\u2019s natural performance is always watchable) but how does former fianc\u00e9e Charity feel about having her old flame living up the road again? In a word: conflicted.<\/p>\n

Charity is now officially with Mack Boyd (Lawrence Robb), which is a slap in the face for Ms Woodfield as he\u2019s the fella her ex copped off with that caused their split in the first place. This makes relations between the bolshy blondes rather tricky, and Vanessa is reluctant to let Charity spend time with her stepson Johnny. Vanessa confirms she\u2019s home for good, so expect her and Charity to either have reunited or killed each other by Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

Ellis dies?<\/h2>\n

As Kyle lies in hospital fighting for his life, fuming Cain blames Ellis for his son\u2019s predicament and vows revenge, starting with forcing Marlon to evict him. The next stage of giving the personal trainer his comeuppance sees Cain abducting Ellis and leaving him alone on the moors to fend for himself for the night\u2026<\/p>\n

When Ellis continues to be absent from the village and doesn\u2019t show up at the B&B as planned, Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) and Al Chapman (Michael Wildman) fear the worst \u2013 especially when they find out he was last spotted in Cain\u2019s company. Chests are puffed out and threats issued between Al and Cain, while Ellis lies freezing and injured in the middle of nowhere. Will he be rescued?<\/p>\n

Wedding bells<\/h2>\n

New Year\u2019s Eve had a rare moment of optimism as Billy popped the question to true love Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley), and she said yes. It\u2019s been quite the roller coaster for this couple but just because Bill\u2019s put a ring on it, don\u2019t expect their troubles to be over.<\/p>\n

The pair want to keep their engagement on the down-low only for little Lucas to accidentally find out his mummy is getting hitched. With the cat out of the bag Billy and Dawn decide to go public and tell their families. But in the aftermath of recent events, what kind of reaction will the news be greeted with?<\/p>\n
