Emmerdale fans spot John Sugdens next victim after | UK News

Could Emmerdale‘s secret villain, John Sugden, transition to serial killer, after slaughtering Nate and dumping his physique in the water? In tonight’s episode (May 26), viewers have been on tenterhooks as it was implied that his comatose ex-boyfriend Aiden regarded terrified when he noticed John in the hospital for a superb motive.

Fans suspect that John might have been the one who left him with mind harm and scarcely in a position to communicate – and then he was seen simmering with silent fury at Aiden’s mum Cathleen (Julia Watson) after she tried desperately to coax him to the hospital. He was all set to stroll down the aisle with potential husband Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) – and Cathleen (as properly as Aiden, if he finds his voice again) might be the only ones succesful of standing in the best way of that. Could he finish up savagely slaughtering Cathleen to get him off her back? Viewers actually appear to assume so.

Taking to X after livid arguments broke out in the village, one wrote: “John is gonna kill Cathleen or do one thing to her #emmerdale.”

“She won’t last much longer… she’ll be going swimming with Nate and his concrete wellies…#emmerdale,” cautioned a second.

Cathleen had been distraught to study that John had moved on from her coma-stricken son after he’d been languishing for three years in the hospital – but fans made it clear they felt his actions have been inevitable.

“#Emmerdale feel for ya Cat but it’s been 3 yrs & ya can’t expect someone to stand still, even a total nutbar like John the killer Sugden. So Kathleen do yourself a favour & gtf away from him before you end up [dead],” somebody exclaimed.

One brutal fan had little or no sympathy, branding Cathleen ridiculous and exclaiming: “She expects John to miss his own wedding to accompany her to the hospital. She deserves to be bumped off #Emmerdale.”

Another quizzed: “Why is Kathleen so desperate for John to be with her son. I bet shes next on his list!”

Meanwhile, prior to the marriage, John had made what appeared to be a panicked last-minute go to to the lake, with fans questioning if he’d been spooked by the risk of discovery and discovered one other hiding place for Nate’s physique.

One viewer, satisfied that one other homicide was coming, cautioned: “John’s trying to work out where to put [Cathleen] now that the lake is going to be dredged eventually!”
