John Sugden’s downfall has seemingly been ‘revealed’ on Emmerdale after he made a huge mistake. We know John is responsible for multiple worrying going ons in the village including the d.e.a.t.h of Nate Robinson.

Nate was k.i.l.l.e.d by John before he even left the village when John tried to ‘save’ him. He was also responsible for deliberately giving Jacob an allergic reaction to try and save him and he also harassed Chas and Liam, pretending it was Ella doing so.

Speaking about the big scenes with Nate, he said: “Obviously, what happened with Nate to all intents and purposes was an accident, but there’s no way that John dealt with it ,or is continuing to deal with it, in the right way. Not just from a legal point of view, but from the point of view of the families that will be affected. There will certainly be a lot of fallout from that.”

The viewers finally found out about John in a special episode. Oliver said of those scenes: “Yes, I think for me, the exciting thing is that the viewers find out first before anyone else in the village. So it’s kind of like letting them into these big secrets that John’s been harbouring. It’s caused him a lot of stress and anguish having to hide things.

“I think the fact that the viewers find out first, is going to be really exciting although I’ll see what the backlash is I guess! It was bound to happen at some point, so I’m glad it’s come out now.”

He added: “There’s lots of big stuff coming up. I guess with the sort of web that John’s woven for himself in the back of his mind, he’s anticipating people to start being suspicious, secrets to come out and people to start finding things out.

“He’s probably got a few set pieces prepared in his mind for dealing with all of this, but really what he’s had to do so far is just kind of think on his feet and adapt to situations around him. I’m sure this will all change soon. And the jeopardy at stake for him now is that he’s got his whole life in Emmerdale Village. He’s got the love of his life, Aaron, (Danny Miller), he’s got a family that he never had. He does not want to lose all that, under any circumstances. There’s going to be a few battles ahead, I think.”

In tonight’s episode, John made a worrying slip-up. As the family desperately try and get in contact with Nate, they called him and John ended up accidentally answering the phone. Whilst he didn’t seem to be rumbled for the accidental answer, his comment to Tracy could later find himself in trouble – as his lies could soon be exposed.

Later, he saw Tracy and told her that he was sorry about Nate being AWOL – could this have exposed him as Nate’s k.i.l.l.e.r, and does this mean John’s secret is set to be exposed for good?
