Celia scrambles as Kim Tate arrives for an “inspection” in Emmerdale

Since being unmasked as the mastermind behind the county lines operation – and later as the ringleader of a modern slavery network exploiting Bear and others – Celia has been tightening her grip on everyone around her.

But in the early-released episode, her facade begins to crack when Kim approaches her in the café, announcing she’s here for a property inspection. Celia insists on the required 24 hours’ notice, but Kim being Kim, she ignores the rulebook and storms straight into the farmhouse.

Inside, Kim is taken aback by the clutter and squalor – a far cry from the polished persona Celia projects. Meanwhile, Celia is silently panicking, knowing her hidden workers, including critically ill Anya, are upstairs.

Thinking fast, Celia diverts Kim by claiming the chicken feed is toxic to horses. Horrified at the thought of risking her precious steeds, Kim storms out, promising that any damage will come out of Celia’s deposit. The immediate crisis is avoided – but Kim clearly suspects something is very wrong on that farm.
