Emmerdale’s Kerry Pollard becomes even more embroiled in Caleb Miligan’s dodgy counterfeit business next week \u2013 but is she playing with fire?<\/p>\n

The potential trouble plays out when Caleb asks Kerry to discreetly handle a shipment for him, hoping that the other depot employees won’t notice anything amiss.<\/p>\n

Having a drink at the pub, Caleb requests that Kerry team up with Billy Fletcher to take a delivery of goods at the depot. Although Billy has experienced reservations about getting involved in criminal activities, he ultimately agrees to be part of his boss’s dodgy side hustle.<\/p>\n

Kerry has also had her doubts, struggling with her conscience after finding a label that read “Help Me” on a pair of counterfeit trainers \u2013 showing the human cost of illegal activities like this.<\/p>\n

Caleb has now pivoted to flogging car parts instead, promising that there won’t be any innocent victims implicated this time. But as his latest choice of enterprise is upping the ante, could there be serious trouble on the horizon?<\/p>\n

“After being scammed by Archie, Caleb was humiliated and he’s been feeling like he might be losing his edge,” Will Ash, who plays the businessman, recently explained.<\/p>\n

“That all feeds Caleb’s ego, as he wants to be the one who does people over and he’s the one that’s been done over. So there was a seed of it there.”<\/p>\n

He added: “Caleb realises that they can make a bit of extra money. He wants to maximise his profits. He does start going down that darker route, but he loves it. He’s pursuing it rather than it pursuing him, if that makes sense!<\/p>\n

“It’s always fun when it gets a bit more complex and complicated. Caleb’s compulsion to push the boundaries all the time with whatever he’s doing, is always great to play. It’s the duplicitousness of him and his relationship with other people, because he hides a lot of it.<\/p>\n

“He doesn’t tell Jai about it. He keeps Billy on side and he keeps Kerry on side by saying: ‘Let’s keep Jai out of this’.”<\/p>\n

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 8pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
