POTD: Leyla faces the music in 'Emmerdale'

Emmerdale shopkeeper Leyla Harding feels the full force of her sister Alicia's fury as she finally returns to the village with Jacob in tonight's episode of the soap.

When Jacob sends a picture message to Alicia (Natalie Anderson) revealing his location, the feisty barmaid is determined to bring him back home. However, when David points out that a huge row between the sisters would only confuse Jacob, Alicia agrees to stay behind while David heads off to sort the situation out.

Later, David tracks down Leyla (Rokhsaneh Ghawam-Shahidi) and firmly insists that it's time for her and Jacob to come back to the village. A reluctant Leyla agrees, but is dishonest with David about how much she's told Jacob.

Returning home, Leyla is left devastated when Alicia refuses to forgive her and slaps her hard across the face, while David also refuses to talk to her.

With Leyla leaving the village on Friday, could there be more heartache ahead for everyone before she makes her departure?


Emmerdale airs tonight at 7pm on ITV1.
