Emmerdale spoilers follow from Friday’s episode (6 February), which is available to watch now on ITVX and YouTube but hasn’t yet aired on ITV1.
Emmerdale revisits a long-forgotten connection between Graham Foster and Caleb Miligan tonight, as the two characters cross paths at The Woolpack. But how do they know each other – and how will this affect their future now they’re both living in the same village?
Friday’s episode sees Graham shock the local community by publicly revealing his jaw-dropping return from the dead. He decides to confront the situation head-on after Gabby Thomas and Lydia Dingle are both stunned to see him at Home Farm.
Arriving at the pub with Joe Tate, a brazen Graham faces a backlash from the punters. Charity Dingle, Ryan Stocks and Billy Fletcher are among those who are unhappy to see him.
Clearly enjoying the drama, Ruby Miligan waltzes over to introduce herself – but her husband Caleb has his guard up.

As Graham unexpectedly greets Caleb as someone he already knows, a baffled Ruby asks: “Have you met?”
Caleb replies: “Yeah, once upon a time. I’m sorry, the emotional catch-up’s gonna have to wait. I’ve got work. Come on, Rubes.”
The brief scene harks back to an episode from June 2023, when Caleb was caught out over his sly attempts to steal Kim Tate’s empire.
Caleb’s first major storyline in Emmerdale saw him plot revenge against Kim, seeing Home Farm as his birthright.

He’d decided to take action after discovering the full details of his father Frank’s 1997 death. In an iconic episode, Frank suffered a heart attack as Kim stood back and watched him die rather than getting him help.
“Let’s just say that I’ve been playing the long game – and I had a bit of help along the way,” Caleb smugly told Kim, once his intentions became clear in 2023.
“It was a while back when I read about your re-arrest for driving uninsured the day after you were released from prison.
“That was the day I started to do some digging – and if you dig long enough, you find something.”

It turns out that Caleb found Graham, who was in a drunken state after Kim had ordered him to get rid of Joe in late 2018. Losing all inhibitions after hitting the bottle, Graham helpfully listed Kim’s many misdeeds, including how Frank died.
Caleb added: “[He was] an angry drunk husband with a tale to tell! A few tales, actually. After a few large whiskies, he was willing to tell me everything.
“This Graham, he hit the booze again not long after [you] ordered him to get rid of Joe. He called you a poisonous bitch – I’d say that’s pretty accurate.”
Can Caleb and Graham find common ground in light of their past, or is a new feud about to develop?
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 8pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
