Emmerdale is planning a special flashback week to unmask Ray Walters's killer. Various residents of the village had motives for wanting Ray gone, but who took drastic steps to get rid of the villain?
Ray's fate was revealed to viewers in Monday night's episode, as an unknown assailant was seen dragging his body through the village. In a subsequent scene in the Corriedale crossover event, it was revealed that Ray's corpse had been secretly hidden in a van being driven by Jai Sharma.
Next week, the story steps up a gear as police descend on Caleb Miligan's depot to follow up on the recent drug scandal that engulfed the business.
Ray's body is found in the van and the police immediately make Jai their prime suspect, causing him to lash out as he starts trying to point the finger elsewhere.
Emmerdale's producer Laura Shaw revealed: "Following the discovery of Ray's body, villagers' secrets will come out as the mystery surrounding Ray's death is finally solved.
"Before the end of January, a special week will flash back to the night of the murder, revealing which of the multiple suspects is responsible for Ray's demise."
A recently-released spoiler picture shows the other suspects line up, as Ross Barton, Rhona Goskirk, Marlon Dingle, Bob Hope, April Windsor, Laurel Thomas, Arthur Thomas, Dylan Penders and Paddy Dingle meet after dark. They're all hiding secrets, but is one of them a killer?
Paddy's involvement in the storyline comes after his father Bear Wolf was drawn into modern slavery by Ray and Celia Daniels. Had Paddy found something out about this before Ray died?
Shaw added: "While Paddy is still out searching for his missing father, the bleak truth is that Bear has been killed by the villainous Celia.
"This emotional search and tragic discovery will bring Paddy's mental health problems back to the forefront."
