Emmerdale's David takes Amba away as he rails against Priya's exit plan

Priya had no idea that potential Take A Vow client Justin had offered the job to Leyla before her, only to tire of waiting for Leyla's answer. Impressed with Priya's resilience after her past trauma, Justin gave the job to her instead. Leyla lashed out, but was regretful when she calmed down and realised that Priya had not betrayed her after all.

Meanwhile, Leyla put her foot in it once more when she headed over to see David and Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell). She didn't know that Priya hadn't yet told David that she was taking their daughter to live in London, and David soon stormed over to confront the mother of his child.

Priya apologised for not keeping David in the loop; but he was not impressed, feeling that she should have asked him for his approval. The situation seemed to settle down, and Priya kept to their planned childcare arrangements as she waved Amba off with David and her younger half-brother Theo.

But, knowing that Priya needed Amba's passport in order to finalise her plans, David eyed the document in the glove compartment of his van.

As Amba excitedly told her dad that her mummy was taking her on a 'forever adventure', David promised his kids an adventure of their own as he drove them away. It was clear that he intended to go into hiding, preventing Priya from leaving with Amba.

Will David come to his senses, or might he end up facing huge repercussions for his reckless actions?
