Kev’s fresh start is threatened by the arrival of an 'old mate' in Emmerdale

Who is Steve, and what does he want?

 18-24 JULY

Whilst Claudette convinces Kev to keep his job at the Café, Nicola is secretly happy he quit, and tries to persuade Vinny, Mandy, and Lewis it's for the best, only for Kev to surprise everyone by asking for his job back.

Learning Lewis’s birthday is near, Kev attempts to make up for missed years with gifts, but his overeager approach unsettles Lewis, much to Ross’s concern.

Later, Kev’s stress mounts when his old friend Steve suddenly arrives, and he warns him not to jeopardise his new life.

Emmerdale continues Monday to Friday at 8pm on ITV1 with first look episodes available from 7am on ITVX
