Paddy badly hurt after savage Bear attack in early Emmerdale ITVX release
The following article contains spoilers from an episode of Emmerdale that hasn't aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX.
Paddy Kirk (Dominic Brunt) has been subjected to a verbal and physical attack by his father Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards) in Emmerdale.
The beloved character has been terribly worried about his dad in recent weeks, due to the fact Bear has been suffering from mood swings and forgetful moments.
Yesterday, Paddy popped home and noticed that Bear had forgotten to take Eve to school. He reminded Bear, but he claimed that Paddy did not mention taking the young girl to school.
In The Hide, Paddy ended up telling Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham) about his concerns. It reminded her of the period before her family knew about Ashley Thomas' dementia, and suggested that Paddy conducts a few memory tests on his dad.
With Mandy Dingle (Lisa Riley) convinced it was a bad idea, Paddy got Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) onside to help. In the pub, Pads and Marlon asked Bear a few questions that would test his short term memory, like asking what he had for dinner yesterday.
Unfortunately, Bear worked out what was going on and reacted with anger. Outside, Bear pushed his son against a wall and berated him. Bear commented on Paddy's mental health and also put his hands on his neck.
As Bear is a former wrestler, it really was no surprise when Paddy said his dad was hurting him. More Trending
The outburst left Paddy in a place he had never been before. At home, he told Mandy that he isn't sure if something is wrong with Bear, or whether this is just a side to his dad he has done a very good job at keeping hidden.

Paddy now knows that if Bear's behaviour is going to get worse, he'll have to do something drastic to keep him away from the family.
In upcoming episodes, the relationship between father and son will be tested again when Bear unleashes a torrent of abuse on Paddy, shortly after he's attacked by a dog.
