What happened in Emmerdale tonight?
Kev discovered Robert and Aaron had reunited behind his back on Wednesday November 26 – and on Thursday November 27 he confronted them in explosive style. Sneaking into Aaron’s flat, Kev waited on the sofa, Samurai sword in hand, for the pair to emerge from the bedroom.
Robert and Aaron were stunned to find him lying in wait, and things only escalated from there. Kev held the pair hostage, declaring he knew exactly what they’d been hiding. When Liam turned up to warn Robron that Kev was supposedly leaving town, Kev simply tricked him inside and took him hostage too.
Robert tried to reason with him. Liam attempted to cool the situation. But Aaron snapped, branding Kev a “spoilt little kid.”Already emotionally unstable, Kev lunged with the sword, gravely injuring Robert.
Kev forced Liam to treat Robert, but Liam insisted he needed urgent hospital care. Still, Kev refused to let them leave.
Liam attempted to secretly phone for help, but Kev caught him. Then came a knock at the door – the police. They were actually looking for Caleb downstairs regarding the depot drug inquiry, but Kev assumed they were there for him and sent them away.
Eventually, Robert and Liam managed to get through to him. They warned that this was Kev’s one and only chance to walk away without ending up back behind bars.
Kev relented, allowed all three men to leave, and slipped quietly out of the village himself. But not before issuing a chilling threat to Robron – and pausing to give Lewis a heartfelt (and heartbreaking) goodbye.
