Someone could be framed for a d.e.a.t.h on Emmerdale as a ki.l.l.e.r was unmasked on Thursday night.

Nate Robinson’s final moments and how he d.i.e.d finally aired in the latest episode of the ITv soap, months after his body was shown at the bottom of a lake. With that we found out John Sugden caused his d.e.a.t.h ‘accidentally’ after trying to play the hero.

New details about when Nate d.i.e.d and how it was covered up came to light, as John continued to hide his crime. But with that new crimes were revealed as we finally learned all his secrets – while there’s more ahead no doubt.

But how far will John go to cover up his crimes, especially the m.u.r.d.e.r of Nate? Could someone else find themselves being accused of the sick crime with his body soon set to be found?

A scene that aired on Thursday night may suggest so, and that John might pin the crime on someone else. It wouldn’t be the first time since he already framed a villager for his recent dodgy dealings just this month.

A scene in the flashbacks with Nate saw John feigning support for the character whose life he was about to take. He offered to help him claiming he was in a bad way, after his dad Cain Dingle had beaten him up.

Nate was injured, and John used this to claim he could help him before injecting him with something. Nate screamed out before collapsing, and suddenly his breathing became rapid.

John went to give him another injection, possibly to save him after the first one, but he was too late and Nate d.i.e.d. John shouted out in horror as he realised he’d k.i.l.l.e.d Nate before disposing of his body.

But something he said to Nate could see Cain framed for the crime. Checking him over before giving him the injection, John remarked that his head must be in pain and that he needed help with it, suggesting Cain had beaten him up quite badly.

With fans long suspecting the beating would have significance and that Nate’s d.e.a.t.h could have been linked to it, will Cain be accused of k.i.l.l.i.n.g his son when his body is found? Might John use the last conversation with Nate and the injuries as means of framing Cain for his own son’s m.u.r.d.e.r, in an attempt to cover up his crime?

Just last week we saw him set up Ella Forster, but the truth only came to light onscreen on Thursday. Someone had been harassing Chas and her partner Liam Cavanagh, with a brick thrown through the pub window and an email sent to cancel their wedding.

Chas also overdosed after someone meddled with her medication. Ella was arrested and accused of doing it all, but we found out on Thursday that John was behind everything and was framing Ella. So will Cain face a similar fate?
