Emmerdale's Charity Dingle woke up to the shocking news that she was going home at the start of the newest instalment of the ITV soap. In the village, Mackenzie Boyd shared the announcement, explaining that there was a lack of evidence and pressure put in the right places.
Back at the house, the family welcomed her back.

Her reunion with Sarah and Jacob in the pub was less warm and friendly, though. She asked Sarah for a quick word, who agreed despite Jacob protesting.
Upstairs, Sarah surprised Charity with a massive hug and said she was sorry for her arrest. Charity explained how she heard about how Sarah stuck her neck out and fought for her, forgiving her for getting her sent to jail in the first place.
However, when Charity asked if she wanted to spend more time catching up, Sarah's demeanour changed.
"Look, I'm glad you're out and I'm sorry for what I put you through, I can see that it must have been awful," she said, adding: "That doesn't mean we can go back to how we were before. There is no making up. I couldn't leave you in there. I still love you, but I can't forgive you."

Sarah concluded that she couldn't trust Charity anymore, and no longer wanted her in her life.
Charity couldn't accept that and tried to follow Sarah out the room, but Mack stopped her. Mack held her close and as she cried and repeated: "She means it. She means it."
Looking ahead, Sarah and Jacob will be living with Robert and Aaron in Emmerdale Farm in order to stay away from Charity. But will Charity respect that?
Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 8pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX and YouTube.
