Emmerdale spoilers<\/a> follow from Monday’s episode (15 December)<\/a>, which is available to watch now on ITVX<\/a> and YouTube<\/a> but hasn’t yet aired on ITV1.<\/p>\n

Emmerdale airs Mary Goskirk’s return scenes tonight \u2013 and her comeback is bad news for daughter Rhona and son-in-law Marlon. As the couple desperately try to pretend that everything is normal in their family home, it’s clear that they’re facing an impossible mission.<\/p>\n

Mary headed off to spend time at a retreat in Cornwall<\/a> at the start of the month, so she missed the big moment that Rhona and Marlon discovered their daughter April Windsor had started dealing drugs for Ray Walters<\/a> and Celia Daniels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Monday’s visit to the Dales, Mary is back and looking forward to a very merry Christmas surrounded by her family. Rhona and Marlon are wrong-footed, though \u2013 they’ve been so stressed dealing with April’s problems that they’d forgotten Mary was due to come home.<\/p>\n

Rhona and Marlon make out that there’s nothing to update Mary on, but she reveals that she already knows about Dylan Penders’ horrifying road incident<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The cab driver said there’d been a hit and run in the area in the last few days,” Mary explains. “Young lad called Dylan, he said. Made the local news.”<\/p>\n

Later, she asks Rhona: “I don’t find out about it until now. No text? No nothing? Now I am home, I’ve got both you and Marlon clamming up on me. It’s a bit strange.”<\/p>\n

Rhona and Marlon try to spin the situation as best they can, claiming that they didn’t want to ruin Mary’s trip with the bad news about Dylan.<\/p>\n

When Mary still won’t let it go, it’s obvious that Rhona and Marlon have underestimated her inquisitive mind \u2013 and they may have a major problem on their hands.<\/p>\n

“Rhona knows that her mum is no fool,” our Emmerdale source recently teased<\/a>. “April did manage to keep her dealing secret for months, but with the situation at home now so tense, it’s highly unlikely that Mary won’t notice.<\/p>\n

“In an ideal world, Rhona would be welcoming Mary home for a perfect family Christmas \u2013 especially after the grief they faced over April’s disappearance last year. But that now seems impossible\u2026”<\/p>\n

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
