Emmerdale's bullying plot is set to continue next week as Jai and Laurel's Christmas plans anger Arthur Thomas.
As viewers know, Arthur has been hurting and tormenting Archie Breckle in recent weeks, and he'll be given even more reason to pick on him when they're forced to spend Christmas Day together.

Unaware that Arthur has been bullying Archie, Jai (Chris Bisson) and Laurel (Charlotte Bellamy) decide they want to spend Christmas Day together with their kids, still believing that Jimmy caused Archie's recent injuries after he was falsely accused.
Arthur is later left furious when he learns that he'll be spending Christmas with Jai and Archie, but Laurel and Jai are optimistic that they'll all end up enjoying the day.
Will Jai and Laurel finally discover the truth about Arthur's bullying, or will it be a not-so-merry Christmas for poor Archie?
