Emmerdale reveals shocking Russian Roulette twist – will Caleb kill Anthony?

Knowing that Anthony abused his own daughter, Caleb's wife Ruby (Beth Cordingly), when she was a child, Caleb acquired a gun and waited for Anthony to return to Mill Cottage.

This was never to be, as at Nicola King's (Nicola Wheeler) house, with the allegations against him exposed, Anthony was hit with a candlestick by Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) when he attacked Nicola.

Anthony ordered the women to keep quiet and ventured into the village.

He later collapsed, but came to and was eventually found by Caleb, who kept his fury in check for the time being.

Caleb urged Anthony to accept a lift from him, while a gruesome flash-forward revealed a dead Anthony lying in a pool of his own blood.

In Tuesday's (21st January 2025) instalment of Emmerdale, Caleb's plan is revealed, as he pulls up at a secluded barn.

Uneasy Anthony realises all is not as it seems and doesn't want to get out of the car.

But Caleb points a gun at him until Anthony obliges, and the latter tries his usual manipulations to try and persuade Caleb that Ruby was lying about his abuse.

Caleb, however, tightens his grip on the weapon and demands he confess, leaving Anthony rattled that his lies are no longer working.

Then Caleb announces that they will be playing a game of Russian Roulette, with Anthony's life on the line unless he finally admits everything.

Will Caleb be responsible for Anthony's demise, or will his plot be thwarted?

One way or another, Anthony will be dead by the end of the week, and there are plenty of suspects who could end his sickening reign of terror.
