Vinny confesses to fatal crash as Joe buries Ruby alive

Published 16 September 2026

Upcoming episodes of the ITV soap opera Emmerdale will feature a series of dramatic plot developments, including a confession from Vinny Dingle and a revenge plot by Joe Tate. According to multiple reports, Vinny Dingle will confess to causing the car crash that killed Jimmy King and Dawn Fletcher. The character, played by Bradley Johnson, has been tormented by guilt after it was revealed he was driving the vehicle that swerved prior to the fatal collision. The confession is expected to occur in episodes airing between September 21 and September 25. Vinny will first admit his responsibility to Nicola King, who is the widow of Jimmy. Following this, he will confront Joe Tate, the widower of Dawn. Nicola is then set to publicly reveal Vinny's role in the crash at the village pub, manipulating Gabby Thomas into speaking about Dawn before making the announcement to the gathered mourners. Joe Tate's reaction to Vinny's confession is described as chilling and ominous. However, his grief is also expected to manifest in a violent revenge plot against the Miligan family.
