What happened to John and Aaron?

The last few episodes of Emmerdale have been very dramatic for the ongoing John Sugden saga.

On Monday, he dragged Aaron off a cliff, trying to make sure Robert could never have him again. And in doing so, framed his brother for the whole thing – poor Rob!

After we had to wait a whole 48 hours to know what happened, last night’s episode revealed that both Aaron and John were in bad ways. And lets not forget about poor Mackenzie still trapped in that bunker!

Aaron has been put into an induced coma, while Robert was told that John would wake up and be okay. And we all agreed with his response: “Pity!”

ITVX release shows John is awake in Emmerdale

However, thanks to the amazing ITVX early releases, viewers can already learn exactly how John is.

Tonight’s episode (September 11) takes a dramatic turn as John wakes up. And in true John fashion, he’s very quick to play the victim.

Spinning a web of lies that makes Robert look guilty, John continues to be the hero of the story. Just what he wanted.

But only this time, he has a higher chance of being caught as Aaron knows everything.

With Aaron in a coma, the soap aired a very ominous ending, as John told Aaron that it would be for the best if he didn’t wake up.

But will John actually kill Aaron – the man he says he loves? Only time will tell..

However by the looks of things, John Sugden isn’t quite finished in Emmerdale just yet. And we all know he won’t go down without a fight.
