Emmerdale's Graham Foster could give Charity Dingle a motive for murder tonight (December 24) as he makes a confession.
Graham (Andrew Scarborough) feels compelled to come clean after hearing that Charity's son Noah is seriously ill in hospital after a drugs overdose.
Viewers know that Graham caught Noah (Jack Downham) with drugs last week and warned him off, but he failed to tell Charity or Vanessa Woodfield what was going on.
In tonight's episode, Marlon fills Graham in on the Noah situation and he immediately feels terrible, knowing that he could have stopped it.

Although Graham initially stays quiet, he later decides that honesty is the best policy and comes to see Charity and Vanessa at the hospital.
What to Read Next
Graham explains how he confiscated drugs from Noah shortly before the incident, not realising that the teen still had more left over.
Charity is bound to feel furious that Graham didn't come to her about Noah sooner. It's no secret that Graham will be killed off next year – could Charity be the culprit?

Emmerdale's executive producer Jane Hudson recently teased: "Charity blames Graham for what's happened to Noah and she's not going to let that go, because he's already done a lot to her children already.
"You think it's just about the drugs, but it will become about something else."
Elsewhere tonight, Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill) faces tough questions over what she knows about Noah's troubles, having lied about him "falling in with the wrong crowd".
How long can Sarah keep up her false story and will Noah be okay?
Emmerdale airs tonight at 7pm on ITV.
