Serena has Ross exactly where she wants him in Emmerdale

But what is her game?

 18-24 JULY

After discovering there has been an intruder at Home Farm, Kim, armed with a shotgun, orders her tardy Head of Operations, Ross, to investigate and hands him a list of suspects. But Ross’ investigations get off to a bad start when he accuses Moira and she sends him packing.

Soon, he accuses Robert, leading to a physical fight with an enraged Aaron, forcing Serena to intervene.

Once Ross has gone, Serena takes the opportunity to give Robert a full explanation about John, and it is enough to persuade Robert to let her stay, despite Aaron’s continued wariness.

Meanwhile, up at Home Farm, Kim has discovered it was a USB stick that was taken. With Robert still injured, Aaron offers Serena a job on the farm, and soon she’s creating a situation to get Ross back in her orbit. Ross is flattered, assuming it’s him she is interested in, but what is her game?

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