Bear Wolf’s (Joshua Richards) friend and fellow slave Anya is in a terrible way in Emmerdale. After getting beaten, her health is getting worse, but she’s still being forced to work on Celia Daniels’ (Jaye Griffiths) farm.

Emmerdale’s modern day slavery storyline was confirmed at the start of this week. We discovered that when Bear left the village in the summer, he was lured into the dangerous world by Ray Walters (Joe Absolom).

In next week’s episodes of the ITV soap, Ray finds Bear tending to Anya again. He tells him to get back to work, but says that he will get Anya some antibiotics.

But will he?

‘I think there’s a lot more to come,’ star Joshua Richards confirmed. ‘The seedy underbelly of this exploitative business will be peeled back for all to see.

‘It will be revealed in all of its vileness. I think it’s important that we’re not afraid to show these things and, as a continuing drama, I think we’re fortunate that we can highlight these things so that the public can be made aware.

‘It will be harrowing, but of course there’s always light at the end of every tunnel.’

Elsewhere next week, Kammy Hadiq (Shebz Miah) decides to organise a housewarming party at Dale View. When Lewis Barton (Bradley Riches) gets word of this, he’s anxious, but finds himself agreeing to the idea.

The party itself is quite awkward in some places as Kev Townsend (Chris Coghill) turns up drunk. He decides to hit the karaoke, but Robert Sugden’s (Ryan Hawley) reaction leaves Kev feeling foolish.

At the BnB, Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths) manages to diffuse a situation between April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) and Bob Hope (Tony Audenshaw).
