Emmerdale spoilers follow from Friday’s episode (16 May), which is available to watch now on streaming service ITVX but hasn’t yet aired on ITV1.

Emmerdale’s Joe Tate and Noah Dingle come face-to-face for a showdown at the hospital tonight – but who’ll leave the conversation with the upper hand?

Fans should brace themselves for major tensions as Noah gets another chance to confront Joe for spiking him and causing the recent limo crash disaster.

Noah decides to pay a visit to Joe, who’s still recovering from being pushed out of an upstairs window at Home Farm.

While Joe knows that Dawn Fletcher was the culprit who attacked him last week, Noah is still one of the police’s top suspects. And that’s good news for Joe…

There’s a heated conversation between the brothers as Noah berates Joe for spiking him in his desperate desire for a new kidney earlier in the year. This sparked the chain of events that killed Suzy Merton, Leyla Harding and Amy Wyatt in the limo crash.

Noah has already given the police a statement confirming that he remembers Joe’s involvement in what happened. Sadly for him, though, Joe has an ace up his sleeve…

Desperate to use any leverage he has, Joe threatens to let Noah take the rap for his dangerous fall unless Noah withdraws his previous statement about the spiking.

Noah is shocked by the lengths that Joe would go to in order to get himself off the hook. Will he cooperate with his brother’s ruthless demands or stand firm?

noah, emmerdale

Fans can see how Noah responds when the episode airs at 7.30pm on ITV1 tonight, or watch right now on ITVX.

Speaking earlier in the year about the brotherly dynamic, Ned Porteous – who plays Joe – told us: “I like to believe that Joe’s feelings for Noah are genuine, but it’s tricky to prove that when he’s also capable of doing such mean things, but you will all see what happens.

“If you just keep watching, family is very important to him…”

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
