Laurel Thomas (played by Charlotte Bellamy) is being held captive by an increasingly crazed Colin Hamston (Mark Noble) on Emmerdale (7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings).

Colin has become vengeful since Laurel threatened to expose the local councillor for his homphobic views and abusive behaviour towards his gay teenage son, Marshall (Max Fletcher).

On tonight's episode of the ITV soap, Laurel remains locked in Marshall's old bedroom at Colin's house.

Laurel tries to reason with Colin, who appears to be becoming more and more unhinged.

When Colin asks Laurel to pray with him, she seizes her chance to WHACK him over the head with a bible... and make a run for it!

Will Laurel manage to ESCAPE before Colin can catch her?

Meanwhile, family member, Suni Sharma (Brahmdeo Shannon Ramana), raises the alarm when he realises Laurel has gone missing.

Family friend, Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler), becomes increasingly worried on Laurel's whereabouts.

Can they find any clues which will lead them to Laurel?
