Fresh Emmerdale horror in early ITVX release as Joe Tate is left wailing
Doctor Crowley's (James Hillier) revenge plan left Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) a broken man in tonight's Emmerdale.
We first met the dodgy surgeon earlier this year, as part of Joe's plot to have an illegal kidney transplant. Joe paid Crowley to perform the operation, which saw him take Caleb Miligan's (William Ash) working organ and put it in Joe's body.
He was paid and ordered to leave the village, but he returned this evening to put Joe in a position that left him terrified.
The last we saw of Joe he had been knocked out by Shaun, his bodyguard. As he woke up, Joe found himself hooked up to some machines in a makeshift theatre room, and Doctor Crowley staring at him.
The situation was simple – all Joe had to do was transfer £100k to Crowley and Shaun, and he could leave without a scratch on his body. If he didn't, Crowley was more than happy to use one of the scalpels he was cleaning while talking to Joe.
Crowley gave Joe some time to ponder over the threat and left him alone in the room. In this period, Joe's anxiety increased and he found himself becoming more and more fearful.
When Crowley and Shaun returned, there was a brief moment where it looked like the doctor was going to cut into Joe's skin, but he then gave in and revealed his bank details, so the duo could take his money.
As a result of Crowley being smart and holding Joe hostage in a location that could not be traced, there was no possible way he could face the consequences for what he had done via prison.

And even if Joe tried to get revenge himself, Crowley told him that he'd find him one day and do the exact same thing he had done today all over again. Joe, by this point, was a shell of the man he usually is – this message from Crowley got through to him loud and clear. More Trending
Back at Home Farm, Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley) tried to talk to Joe, but he sent her away.
There's one thing Joe Tate loves more than anything else in this world, and it's money.
So who will he become, now it's been taken from him?

EastEnders icon breaks silence and confirms BBC soap return
Following months of rumours, the actor has now broken his silence and said he 'cannot wait to return home' later this autumn, as Max has 'lots of unresolved drama with many characters'. It will be the first time he has set foot in Walford since February 2021. Jake Wood breaks silence on BBC EastEnders return Jake, who first joined EastEnders in 2006, shared in a statement on Instagram to his 179k followers: 'I'm over the moon to be coming home to Walford. 'Max has got lots of unresolved drama with many characters, so I'm sure he'll be busy. 'I'm excited to see what he's been up to, and what is next for the character, but if his last 15 years in The Square are anything to go by, I'm sure there will be plenty of chaos.' EastEnders said in a post on social media: 'Max left Walford back in 2021 when his affair with Linda Carter ended after she revealed her true feelings for husband Mick, and his subsequent meddling resulted in brother Jack Branning's suspension from his job with the police. 'With daughter Lauren expected to marry into the Beale's, tearaway teenage son Oscar back in Walford, Stacey Slater widowed, and a secret daughter with ex-lover Linda yet to be discovered, Max has more than enough unfinished business in Walford awaiting his return…' New executive producer Ben Wadey said he is 'delighted to welcome the immensely talented Jake Wood back to the role of Max Branning'. Ben added: 'Whilst his character has only been away from Albert Square for four years, Walford, and the lives of those who live in it, have changed immensely. 'Max has a lot of unfinished business, but whether he is welcomed by his family remains to be seen. 'However, with a past as checkered as Max's, it's fair to say that many Walford residents will not be pleased to see him, putting the Brannings back at the heart of The Square, and the drama, this year.' The news comes after a TV source told The Sun back in May: 'Jake's return is huge news for EastEnders fans as his character made a massive mark on the show. 'It'll raise some eyebrows after he was absent from the 40th anniversary earlier this year. 'Bosses are excited about what his character's reappearance means for spicing up the plots. 'There is plenty to go at. Max has loads of unfinished business in the Square and is set to ruffle some feathers.' Many fans have taken to Jake's Instagram post to share their excitement about his anticipated return. Someone commented: 'Might actually have to start watching EastEnders again. Can't wait to see what chaos is caused.' Another wrote: 'Always been one of my favourite characters so happy this is happening.' Recommended reading: This person put: 'Haven't watched it for years but I will if you're back mate.' One viewer exclaimed: 'OMG FINALLY.' EastEnders has confirmed Max will return briefly later this autumn, with his permanent return scheduled for later in the year.

The Chase's biggest ever prize pots – but how many nail-biting questions could you get right?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE CHASE has the potential to see contestants win some serious big money prizes.... if you can beat those pesky chasers, that is. With quizmasters trying to stop hopefuls in their tracks, it takes some serious skill in order to come out on top on the ITV gameshow. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 7 Bradley Walsh has seen some huge wins during his time as host on The Chase Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk But there have been times when people have managed it, taking home some incredible life-changing amounts – whether for themselves or for charity. Here are some of the biggest wins ever on the show, and how they managed to do it. But the question is - would you have known the answers? You'll find all the answers at the bottom of this article. 1. Celebrity Top Spot - £160,000 7 Rachel and Kirsty hold the record for the biggest win Credit: ITV Appearing for Soccer Aid in 2018, Kirsty Gallacher and Rachel Riley unwittingly made The Chase history in the process. The pair made it to the final chase against Shaun 'The Dark Destroyer' Wallace, and seemed on the backfoot with only 16 points for him to beat. However, soon they found themselves clawing it back thanks to a combination of wrong answers from Wallace and correct pushbacks, giving them the upper hand. In the dying seconds of the game, Shaun was asked: "Which ex formula one driver is a multiple Paralympic champion?" The Chaser didn't know, and then Rachel gave the incorrect answer as David Weir. In the end, Shaun only made it 11 spaces – and the pair took home the biggest prize packet ever given out in the show's history. It's still not been beaten. 2. Tense Final Chase - £100,000 7 Duo Karen and Ian took home a massive £50,000 each after beating The Sinnerman Credit: ITV Duo Karen and Ian were the last two contestants standing at the final chase when they appeared on the show in 2024 – and it proved to be a nailbiter. Throughout the final chase, Paul 'The Sinnerman' Sinha was extremely close behind them, with pushbacks meaning he came incredibly near beating them. However, one last second slip-up (literally, with one second remaining) gave them the upper hand, and between them they took home a massive £100,000 prize between them. Paul slipped up on this question: "Lesley Manville played the widow Cathy in what BBC sitcom?" 3. Besting The Beast - £120,000 7 Bryan Laura and Julia beat The Beast for £120,000 Credit: ITV Bryan, Laura and Julia made it through to the final chase together in 2023, going up against Mark 'The Beast' Labbett. But from the get go they made sure he had to work to stop them, racking up an impressive score of 23 points that Labbett had to beat. In the final few seconds he was asked: "What island group appears on the signpost of Land's End?" While he got it right, in the end, he could only achieve 17 with pushbacks also coming in handy, and the trio walked home with £120,000 – or £40,000 each. 4. Biggest Solo Win Ever - £75,000 7 Eden won the biggest solo win on the show aged just 20 Credit: ITV In 2021, Darragh 'The Menace' Ennis was beaten by 20-year-old student Eden Nash in the final chase. Darragh was asked: "'When I give my heart' is a line from what Nat King Cole hit?" The Chaser answered correctly but time was not on his side. The win meant Eden took home £75,000 – the single highest win on a daytime gameshow ever for a solo player. As Bradley Walsh congratulated him, Eden joked: "That's alright, innit!" with Darragh saying it was "brilliantly played". Eden said he was just going to "look at it in his bank account" rather than do anything with it. 7 Joe won the biggest single amount in a head-to-head, only to lose it moments later Credit: ITV 5. Biggest Head-to-Head Win - £201,000 Strictly star and YouTuber Joe Sugg made show history in 2023 when he managed to bag a staggering £201,000 for the prize pot. In his head-to-head round against Paul Sinha, Joe took a massive gamble by going for the higher prize. It all came down to a one question shoot out which was: "Which of a hedgehog's senses is very poor?" The options were sight, hearing, smell. Joe managed to get the answer right, with Bradley hugging Joe at his impressive feat. But in a devastating blow, he later lost it in the final chase when Paul ultimately caught up to the team's score of 18 after a minor mistake. When asked who starred in Stepbrothers, Joe and his celebrity team-mates answered Will Ferrell - but mispronounced his name as Will Farrell, which Bradley could not accept. The team were instead awarded £1,000 each for their chosen charities. 7 6. Biggest group take down - £116,000 It's rare that all four contestants make it to the final chase, so Jenny 'The Vixen' Ryan had her work cut out from her at the start. In this celebrity special, Tony Maudsley, Bryony Page, Kerry Godilman and Alexander Armstrong all made it through to the last round, with £116,000 in their prize pot for charity. Racking up an impressive 23 points for The Vixen to beat, Jenny gave it her all but found herself suffering pushbacks when she got questions wrong. In the final moments, she was asked: "What was the full name of the first Duke of Wellington?" The Vixen knew her history, but it wasn't enough to catch the players. Maybe it was the Christmas spirit, but the team managed to take home the win – and more importantly £116,000 (29,000 each) for good causes, mainly children's charities. Rather than be annoyed, Jenny looked tearfully proud at the group for their achievement. The answers! Alex Zanardi Mum Scilly Islands When I Fall in Love Sight Arthur The Chase is available on ITVX.
