Emmerdale has revealed what’s next for Dr Todd and Charity Dingle’s dark storyline<\/a> as police arrive in the village to make an arrest.<\/p>\n

Just when Dr Todd is preparing to leave the Dales, she gets more than she’d bargained for as the police summon her to the station for questioning.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Charity visited the police station to report Dr Todd<\/a> for sexually assaulting her. She also underwent a medical examination so that the police would have as much evidence as possible to help with the investigation.<\/p>\n

In Wednesday’s episode (10 June)<\/a>, Charity is shaken when she sees Dr Todd in person for the first time since the attack.<\/p>\n

Although Charity has spoken to the police about Todd’s crime, she still isn’t ready to confide in her family. In separate conversations with her husband Mackenzie Boyd and granddaughter Sarah Sugden, she covers for why she disappeared from Sarah’s 21st birthday party the day before.<\/p>\n

Shortly afterwards, Todd realises that she could be in big trouble as newcomer DS Reid<\/a> approaches her regarding an allegation of sexual assault.<\/p>\n

When questioned, will evil Dr Todd think quickly and find a new way to manipulate the situation? Or will this be the beginning of the end? Watch a first look at the scene below:<\/p>\n

Speaking recently about the future of this plot, Emmerdale’s producer Sophie Roper commented: “Charity’s storyline will explore the impact of sexual violence, and though this heinous act is fundamentally about power, we’ll explore the complexities of how Charity processes her trauma when the perpetrator is a woman.<\/p>\n

“With little conversation surrounding female-on-female assault, we’ll explore the overwhelming feelings of isolation many survivors experience and will examine the disparity between the legal term sexual assault and the fact that many women in Charity\u2019s position feel this minimises what\u2019s happened to them, because they feel like they\u2019ve been raped.<\/p>\n

“Though difficult viewing at times, Charity’s resilience will inspire hope as she confronts what has happened to her.”<\/p>\n

Emma Atkins, who plays Charity, added: “This has been one of the most demanding and significant storylines I’ve had to navigate as Charity. We know her as a tough, resilient character, but this trauma will expose a deep, raw vulnerability that has been heartbreaking at times to play.<\/p>\n

“I hope this storyline gives even one person the courage to speak out or helps others understand the quiet devastation of trauma.”<\/p>\n

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