Emmerdale fans ‘work out' shock paternity twist for Ross Barton's new brother Lewis – and it's bad news for Moira Dingle
EMMERDALE fans think they have worked out a shocking paternity twist after Lewis Barton made his soap debut. Netflix actor Bradley Riches made his first appearance on the ITV programme last night as the long-lost brother of Ross Barton. 4 4 Ross and his aunt Moira were left shocked to discover that there was another member of the family in Lewis. Lewis' mum is Emma Barton - meaning he is the half-brother of Ross, Pete and the dead Finn. It appeared to transpire that Emma gave birth to Lewis during time apart from husband James Barton when they split and soon had him adopted. The rest of the Barton clan had no clue about Lewis' existence until he sent a letter to the family at Butler's Farm. Ross and Lewis later agreed to meet but soon, Ross decided that he wasn't interested in building a connection and left Lewis hanging. However, fans think there is another twist in the tale still to come. In a mind-blowing DNA twist, some Emmerdale viewers have speculated that Cain Dingle could be the father of Lewis. As fans passed their theories on who it could be, one suggested: "Cain I bet." Someone else echoed this, as they wrote: "He could pass as Cain's son." Suspicion continued as another wrote: "I suspect there might be a twist so maybe." Actor Bradley - who also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother last year - recently revealed how he got the role on Emmerdale. He bumped into a producer from the soap at the National Television Awards and got chatting. And while originally he auditioned for the role of Dylan, April Windsor's homeless pal, instead he was offered the role of Lewis. 4

Emmerdale villain gets pushed out of window in dramatic scenes - but who shoved him and will he survive?
Emmerdale villain Joe Tate was pushed out of a window in a vengeful act in Thursday's episode. In dramatic scenes, the character, played by Ned Porteous, was found in a heap outside after seemingly being shoved from the first floor during a surprise party. Joe has been at the centre of a series of significant storylines during his on-and-off run on the soap. He left the Yorkshire village in 2005 after 10 years before returning in 2017, but a year later he was seemingly murdered by nemesis Cain Dingle in a chaotic climax. To viewers' shock, he made a second comeback at Christmas but has since been racking up the enemies, attacking two Dingles in a bid to get a kidney amid his dialysis treatment, while also having an affair with Dawn Fletcher. His behaviour appears to have come back to bite him in Thursday's episode as chaos unfolded at a birthday do for Lydia Dingle leaving Joe fighting for his life. In dramatic scenes, the character, played by Ned Porteous, was found in a heap outside after seemingly being shoved from the first floor during a surprise party (pictured) And fans have gone wild with speculation as to who committed the act against Emmerdale's most hated character. 'A part of me is thinking Kerry or Noah but I could be completely wrong.' 'Really enjoyed tonight's episode. True whodunnit set up, nicely done with a nod to the past (Tom King's window). #Emmerdale' 'I'm calling it It was Clemmie #Emmerdale' 'Was he trying to clean the windows and slipped?' 'I think I'm calling Lucas atm tbh' 'Emmerdale! I think it's Dawn or maybe even Clemmie but she's little so I'm not sure how.' 'I'm calling it out now, it's Clemmie !' 'There'll be a queue round the block of potential pushers of Joe' 'What have you done Clemmie Reed' 'My money is on Clemmie.' 'He was dizzy from the spiked drink and fell himself' Oliver Young first portrayed the figure in the Yorkshire village from 1995 until 2005 when he left the area with Zoe Tate and her daughter Jean. Ned reprised the character in 2017 but Joe was then believed to have been murdered by Cain in 2018, making his return to the role at Christmas six years later all the more shocking. He's been racking up the enemies ever since, attempting to take half-brother Noah Dingle's kidney amid his dialysis treatment, before turning to Caleb as his next victim, even more sinister given he is a member of his family. The villain then disappeared before telling his victim over the phone: 'It's a work trip. Illinois this time of year is all just wind and rain.' After Caleb asked him how he is feeling, Joe added: 'Yeah, late night. How are they treating you?' From his hospital bed, Caleb said: 'Doctors are giving me a load of meds. I feel like a right druggie.' Discussing a police investigation into the attack, he added: 'They found the car; they're dusting it for prints. 'I want to talk to you when you get back though.' In a bid to throw Caleb off the scent, Joe said: 'Sure! I'm not sure how much help I can be. When I got there, whoever did that to you had gone... I've got to go for a meeting, but you take care of yourself, okay?' It turned out Dr Crowley was in the room with Joe for the call and the assailant justified his contact with his victim, saying: 'I think it would be odd to not check up on Caleb.' The doctor responded: 'He's not your problem anymore. Shaun's been released this morning pending an investigation and now we're flying him to Thailand as requested. It's not cheap.' Joe said, 'Money well spent. And my car?', to which Dr Crowley replied, 'Discreetly delivered back to Home Farm.' After hearing Joe's plan to flee for god, the doctor said: 'You've just had your op. You shouldn't be travelling and not without trained medical staff.' But the iconic character was hellbent on leaving the area, adding: 'I'm aware of the risks. I can't stay here. I've got medics waiting for me when I arrive in Dubai. Time to move on.' A car was then shown driving Joe away from the village in what seemed to be the villain's final exit from the soap. But of course it was not the end for the pivotal character and Joe then had an affair with Dawn and even blackmailed her daughter, Clemmie.
