Emmerdale's Victoria Barton faces yet another unwelcome visit from Lee Posner's mum Wendy tonight (October 18).

As Robert Sugden's family struggle with his devastating arrest, Wendy (Susan Cookson) turns up at the worst possible time to cause more trouble.

A stressed-out Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) is horrified when Wendy reappears out of the blue, banging on her door and demanding to be let in.

Consumed with grief and anger over the death of her son, Wendy has some harsh words to share about Robert's role in what happened.
