Emmerdale spoilers follow from Friday's episode (January 24), which is available to watch now on streaming service ITVX but hasn't yet aired on ITV1.
Emmerdale has revealed a major flaw in Aaron Dingle and John Sugden's killer cover-up.
Friday's episode saw the couple realise that they'd messed up with their desperate attempts to conceal Anthony Fox's true fate.
Evil Anthony died at Caleb Miligan's depot this week after being brutally attacked by Aaron. He also had a nasty head injury from an altercation with Laurel Thomas earlier in the day.
Determined to keep Aaron out of trouble, John immediately stepped in to dispose of Anthony's body and make it look like he'd left the village of his own accord.

As Aaron and John tried their best to avoid suspicion and carry on as normal, they headed to The Woolpack for drinks together.
The pair were alarmed to overhear a conversation between Anthony's family members Steph and Ruby, which revealed that the villain's car was still in the village.
This was bound to spark suspicion over why Anthony was nowhere to be seen if he hadn't driven off somewhere, so Aaron was quick to panic and rushed out of the pub.
Lamenting the car blunder as "a massive problem", Aaron complained to John: "That's it now, you know. There's no point worrying about it because we're finished. The police will be here by the morning.
"I don't know why I even bothered listening to you in the first place. Nobody ever gets away with anything like this."

John begged Aaron to be quiet, then lost his temper with his partner and advanced menacingly towards him.
He ranted: "I said shut up. We made a mistake, you're right. But it doesn't have to be a problem. We move [the car]. Make it look like he's come back to get his stuff and driven off because he doesn't want to see people.
"You are right. This is just the start and there will be more. There might be police, but you are going to have to help – because this time there is just too much for me to deal with on my own, do you hear me?"
Aaron was shaken by John's response – has he made a big mistake by trusting him?
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
