Sarah Sugden is ready to do what ever it takes to impress bad lad Danny on Emmerdale. But does that include taking illegal drugs?

Sarah Sugden (played by Katie Hill) was in a whole lot of trouble when her grandmother Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) and girlfriend Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) discovered the teenager was skipping her schoolwork to meet-up with an older boy called Danny (Louis Healy) on Emmerdale (7:00pm on ITV, see our TV Guide for full listings).

However, after an emotional plea from Sarah, who has a heart condition, for them to let her enjoy being a regular teenager, Charity and Vanessa have since backed-off.

But it looks like they were right to wonder if Danny is a bad 'un...

In today's DOUBLE-BILL of Emmerdale, Sarah decides to throw a party to impress Danny, Noah Tate (Jack Downham) is horrified when Sarah swallows a mystery pill Danny and his mate Jayden have given her.
