I sent the picture of Clemmie,” Carl said, telling his parents that he didn’t ask her to take it.<\/p>\n ITV<\/p>\n Related: Emmerdale unexpectedly scraps romance storyline for two key characters<\/a><\/p>\n Nicola tried to convince Dawn not to take things any further, but it didn’t work, with Dawn saying: “I just want to go through the proper channels, okay?
