Emmerdale has stirred up more intrigue as Rhona Goskirk made another clandestine phone call, and viewers believe they’ve figured out the mystery caller’s identity.

In Wednesday’s episode (January 7) of the ITV soap, April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) finally revealed to her family the recent torment she endured at the hands of Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) and his adoptive mother, Celia Daniels (Jaye Griffiths).

As fans are aware, April and her boyfriend Dylan Penders (Fred Kettle) were manipulated into drug dealing for the villains, while April was also forced into sex work.

April is under the impression that she killed a predatory client named Callum, whom she struck on the head with a bottle in self-defence, but he is very much alive.

April is now determined to disclose everything about Ray and Celia’s criminal operation to the police. However, Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) and his wife, Rhona (Zoe Henry), were further shocked when April informed her parents about Celia’s modern slavery scheme at the farm, reports the Daily Star.

Alongside Bob Hope (Tony Audenshaw) and Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson), concerned parents Marlon and Rhona listened as Dylan and April confirmed Bear Wolf (Joshua Richard) had been kept at the farm as a forced labourer for months.

The family remains fearful of further retaliation from Ray and Celia, and is unsure how to handle this information, but April insists they must report it to the police.

It seems that April and her family remain oblivious to the fact that Ray murdered his mother, Celia, by plunging a knife into her back the previous week. Subsequently, it emerged in Emmerdale that Ray had also met his demise at the hands of an unidentified killer.

After April’s revelation concerning Bear, Rhona was spotted making another mysterious phone call. This enigmatic conversation marks the second such occurrence within a week, leaving Emmerdale fans convinced they’ve identified the recipient – Graham Foster.

Rhona’s behaviour turned peculiar following Ray’s shocking death. She rang someone and enquired, “Have you done it?” suggesting she might either be the perpetrator or privy to the killer’s identity, whilst Ray’s murder remains undisclosed to the public.

During Monday’s episode (January 5), Graham (Andrew Scarborough) stunned viewers with his unexpected return to the soap, appearing behind the wheel of a van containing a bound young woman called Jodie.

His true identity was unveiled when he visited Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) in the hospital, though he refrained from speaking to Joe. After all, everyone believes he perished when Pierce Harris killed him on the programme in 2020, merely a year into his romance with Rhona.
