EMMERDALE has seemingly confirmed the identity of who pushed Joe Tate out of the Home Farm window.
Speculation has been rife as to who could have been the reason the suave businessman was
Many Dales residents but one made a stunning confession at the end of the latest episode.
Before that, it seemed that the heat was firmly on Billy Fletcher as he was hauled in for questioning by the cops.
His previous violent past, as well as his rage at discovering the affair, were determined as being his primary factors in wanting to push and kill Joe.
After bungling his way through a police interview, the cops decided to arrest and charge Billy with the crime.
Banging him up in a holding cell, the cops were then soon forced to make a quick U-turn owing to a “new development”;;.
It later transpired that Dawn had given the cops an alibi for Billy by telling them they were in bed together.
She told them that Billy had chosen to keep this a secret in order to not look foolish for having bedded his wife so fresh off the back of her ongoing affair.
Although the cops never told Billy of this, they let him go and cited Dawn’s alibi as credible.
Speaking to one another at Home Farm, Billy questioned why Dawn would want to protect him – especially given that she cannot be 100% sure that he was the pusher.
With Dawn confessing to Billy that Clemmie had been out of sorts, it prompts him to suspect that his daughter could be invovled.
Demanding to get to the bottom of this, he races up the stairs at Home Farm to speak to Clemmie but is soon interrupted by Dawn.
Dawn shouted at him: “Billy, stop it. Stop... Billy, come here!”;;
She continued: “She can’t tell you anything, OK?
“It wasn’t her.”;;
Dawn then added: “I pushed him. It was me!”;;
But did you suspect that it was Dawn?
Or are there more twists still to come?
