The couple have left the village for a fresh start, but it's difficult for John to truly move on as he's haunted by his recent actions...

In a heart-to-heart, John expresses his regrets to Aaron – but makes out that Anthony Fox's death is the murder that's bothering him.

John took control in Anthony's death cover-up earlier this year, getting rid of the villain's body to keep Aaron out of trouble. It later transpired that Anthony's daughter Ruby was the one who killed him, so John hadn't needed to get so closely involved.

Speaking to Aaron tonight, John says: "I just had this really vivid, horrible dream last night – about Anthony.

"Do you ever think much about what we did to him? I do. Disposing of him like that – not even giving him a proper grave."

Later, he adds: "I don't think I've quite processed what I've done. We're not God. We don't get to call the shots."

Can John get through the conversation without giving the game away that he's really talking about Mack's shocking fate? Fans can see how the drama unfolds in full tonight when the episode airs on ITV1 – or it's streaming early now on ITVX and YouTube.

Emmerdale spoilers for this week have already revealed that Aaron will start to get suspicious over John's strange behaviour, culminating in a showdown this Friday as he accuses his husband of lying to him. There's high drama to come in this story and it's not to be missed…
