Emmerdale’s Moira Dingle became embroiled in a surprising new feud following her release from prison. The character has been behind bars for most of the year after being falsely blamed for human trafficking and double murder<\/a>, but was released earlier this week. <\/p>\n

Home now looks slightly different for Moira after she controversially – yet understandably – sold Butler’s Farm to the Tates, with Joe subsequently handing the reins over to Robert Sugden and Aaron Dingle<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Tonight’s episode of the ITV soap<\/a> saw Moira struggle with her decision after moving into her new home at Wishing Well Cottage, with Sam, Lydia and the others being present for a series of comedic clashes.<\/p>\n

In the morning, Moira complained that Belle had taken too long in the shower, asking Lydia if she could use the bathroom next. After Lydia told her that there was a rota, Moira quipped: “Ah, yeah. Just didn’t realise I was still in prison.”<\/p>\n

The pair clashed again after Lydia made rabbit stew, with Moira informing her that Isaac wouldn’t eat it if it had peas in it. When Lydia expressed concern that Isaac wasn’t eating enough green vegetables, Moira was offended at being told how to parent her own child. <\/p>\n

Moira opened up to Cain about how she was feeling, saying: “This isn’t funny, Cain. I’m sure she was criticising our parenting skills.” While Moira was complaining about having to “tiptoe” around people, Lydia came down the stairs and overheard everything. <\/p>\n

Moira said: “If I’m honest, I just feel like we, as a family, need, you know, a bit of space.” When the argument got heated, Lydia asked: “Well, why don’t you go back to prison if it’s that bad?”<\/p>\n

A frustrated Cain implored Moira to be kinder to his family, but she stormed out of the house. With a potential new feud on the cards, will Moira and Cain make up? And can she learn to live with his family? <\/p>\n

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