Moira promised Kyle no one attacks her family and gets away with it and vowed to sort it. She said Dylan needed to find out the hard way no one threatens them. And spoilers show Moira will take her revenge and teach Dylan a lesson tomorrow night… Kyle outs Dylan’s secret to Moira (Credit: ITV) What happened in Emmerdale tonight? Dylan was upset over April’s betrayal and worried what Paddy would think of him now his past has been exposed. But Paddy assured him there was no judgement. In what was perhaps an ill-timed suggestion, Paddy then offered to look at Dylan’s wound. Dylan immediately assumed Paddy was trying to get him naked, Ray’s words that Paddy must have an ulterior motive ringing in his ears. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Paddy was shocked, but gently explained that was not at all who he was. Dylan realised he’d jumped to the wrong conclusion and vowed to do better. He then told Ray he wanted out of the drug business and got a job as a pot washer at the Woolpack. Ray’s disappointment aside, Dylan finally felt like he was on the right track – until he got talking to Kyle who recognised his voice as one of the men who broke into the barn. Dylan begged him not to tell anyone and assured him it was all a misunderstanding. But scared Kyle took the first opportunity he could to tell Moira the truth. Moira vowed that whether Cain was there or not, no one messed with her family – and now she’s going to take action. Dylan is at Moira’s mercy (Credit: ITV) Moira takes revenge on Dylan in Emmerdale spoilers On Thursday night (August 28) Moira will lure Dylan up to Butlers on the proviso she needs help. But when April hears where he is, she panics and tells Chas the truth. With Chas and April on their way to the farm to prevent disaster striking, Moira confronts Dylan about breaking into the farm. Dylan is then left terrified as Moira rounds on him with a pitchfork and promises him a taste of his own medicine. Will she dish out her own Moira style of revenge? Moira Dingle’s revenge history in Emmerdale Of course it’s not the first time Moira has dealt out some vengeance – not by a long shot. Her comment about Cain being away meaning nothing wasn’t far off the mark because to be honest we’d probably be just as scared of Moira as we are of Cain! Moira Dingle gave Ruby a Glasgow Kiss (Credit: ITV) Headbutting Ruby Fox This time last year, Moira was suffering a brain tumour but had no idea. She was angry all the time, lashing out and jumping to conclusions, but then not remembering it. In one such incident, she became convinced Ruby was trying to seduce Cain (which of course later happened!) and saw red. Baffled by the accusations, Ruby tried to defuse the situation. As Cain and Caleb arrived, Moira headbutted Ruby. She fell onto the sofa, covering her face in pain as Cain and Caleb watched on in horror. Cain rushed to restrain Moira before demanding to know what is going on with her. Moira headbutted Charity during a row over Debbie (Credit: ITV) Charity’s ‘gift from Glasgow’ Ruby wasn’t the first Emmerdale resident to get a headbutt off Moira. Back in 2017, she took aim at Charity while the pair were embroiled in an argument over Debbie. Charity ripped into Moira during the scene. She mocked her job as a farmer and brought up Cain’s affair, before impersonating her Scottish accent. Moira responded with a simple headbutt, declaring it to be a “gift from Glasgow.” This scene will forever go down in soap history as one of the most iconic showdowns of all time (well, at least we think so!) Moira killed Emma after a huge showdown (Credit: ITV) Emma Barton’s death Moira’s biggest showdown occurred in 2017, when she killed Emma Barton. She and Emma hadn’t seen eye-to-eye for a long while. Emma had attempted to murder Moira by starting a fire in a barn, but Emma ended up rescuing her as she went into labour. Emma then tried to steal Moira’s baby, Isaac. Moira also found out that Emma was the one who shot her nephew Finn (bless Finn). All of this led to a huge showdown between Moira and Emma on the bridge. While Moira urged Emma to tell the truth, Emma lashed out and began taunting her about Holly’s death. Moira then pushed Emma off the bridge, resulting in her death. Chrissie was on the receiving end of Moira’s right hook (Credit: ITV) Moira punched Chrissie Back in 2015, Moira found out Cain and Chrissie had shared a kiss. If you don’t know what happened next, we’re sure you have a good idea! As Chrissie and Robert were rowing about their failed marriage, Moira conveniently drove past. She marched up to Chrissie, while Cain watched, and punched her straight in the face. Chrissie was knocked onto the bonnet of a car while Robert restrained Moira. She proceeded to scream and shout at both Cain and Chrissie, before driving off in her car – simply iconic! Moira slaps Chas (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock) The Chas Dingle slap Loyal Emmerdale fans will recall the moment Moira took on Chas in 2012. Moira confronted Chas after becoming convinced Chas was sleeping with her husband John. Chas was quick to lay out the facts to Moira. She stated she hadn’t slept with John but made no secret of them flirting, before bringing up Moira’s affair with Cain and pointing out the irony. Moira slapped Chas round the face, but Chas remained unfazed. She informed Moira she would “knock her into next week” if she touched her again. Moira isn’t afraid to bring out the big guns (Credit: ITV) Kim and Jamie held at gunpoint by Moira in Emmerdale In 2021, Moira decided she’d had enough of Kim Tate and son Jamie. She headed round to Home Farm with her shotgun and held them both at gunpoint to make sure they knew she meant business. Kim was in the middle of a business meeting and unsurprisingly she didn’t secure the deal. She was largely unfazed by Moira’s threats, and the gun pointed at her forehead, but Jamie was terrified. Moira shot a vase to make them both know she was serious about using her gun. However, she pretended to shoot Kim but the other barrel wasn’t loaded. Moira informed Kim and Jamie that next time things would be worse, before making a dramatic exit. Moira pinned Kim against a wall (Credit: ITV) Emmerdale Moira showdown: Moira Vs. Kim There’s few people that would cross Kim Tate, but Moira has never been afraid to take on the scheming matriarch. In 2019, Moira barged into Home Farm and proceeded to pin Kim against the wall. She demanded to know what Kim was up to after apparently getting the police off Cain’s back. Kim was unaware of the situation, but hid this from Moira and continued to antagonise her. In the same year, Moira also pushed Kim into the mud! And now she’s set to go head to head with Kim again as Kim and Joe remain determined to get Moira’s land off her. But they’d better watch out – just like Dylan – because you don’t mess with Moira! Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
