When Joe first returned to the village and started sniffing around younger brother Noah Dingle (Jack Downham), Charity (Emma Atkins) enlisted Ross’ help to scare Joe off.
Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) isn’t making a whole heap of friends in Emmerdale, and certainly not one of Ross Barton (Mike Parr).
These two have history and Ross has a reason to want to see Joe suffer, having taken a face-full of acid on his behalf a few years ago, leaving him permanently scarred.
And with Noah mysteriously being found drugged in the middle of the road – causing a huge limo crash – it would seem Joe has some very dark intentions, if indeed he is the one behind the drugging.
There has been some speculation that perhaps Joe is trying to woo brother Noah with a promise of a life in Dubai as a ruse to harvest his brother’s organs.
