Charity hides from Priya in Emmerdale

Sarah breaks into Holdgate Farm in a bid to help her granny Charity Dingle, who gets sucked into the teenager's crime

Emmerdale's Charity Dingle is hopping mad in Friday's episode from 7pm (see our TV Guide for full listings).

Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) is having trouble tracking down Kirin Kotecha, her fiancee Vanessa's (Michelle Hardwick) ex who's the father of Vanessa's son Johnny.

But Charity hasn't given up her tricky search quite yet and certainly doesn't want or need any help from her teenage granddaughter Sarah (Katie Hill).

But that's just what she's about to get, and Sarah's plan to 'help' ends up dragging her furious gran into a break in!

With Nicola (Nicola Wheeler) having told Sarah that Priya knows more about Kirin than she's letting on, Sarah decides to sneak in to Holdgate Farm to have a rummage around for clues.

But after hopping through a window when the coast is clear, will Sarah find any evidence that connects Priya to her ex Rakesh's AWOL son Kirin?
