Emmerdale fans are convinced they have worked out who will be killer Meena Jutla's next victim after last night's episode saw a huge showdown in the middle of the village. 

Fans were horrified to see Meena kill teenage Leanna recently after she accidentally unearthed her dark secrets. 

But while everyone struggles to get their head around the fact Leanna is gone, Meena is reveling in the fact she has so far managed to keep her killer secret hidden

Grieving dad Liam Cavanagh is at rock bottom since losing his daughter, and last week's Emmerdale saw him flee the village in a bid to escape all the heartbreaking memories of Leanna. 

But last night Meena managed to track him down at the cemetery where his late wife and Leanna's mum is buried.

However, the relief that Liam was okay was short-lived when it turned out Meena's chat with Liam had given him the idea to clear out Leanna's belongings from the house in a bid to move on.

Leyla was horrified as Liam started throwing out bin bags full of Leanna's things onto the street, knowing that he was only acting in the heat of the moment and that he would regret getting rid of all those memories in the weeks to come.
