Emmerdale teen Arthur Thomas enjoys a secret date next week.

Arthur welcomes newcomer Lewis into Mulberry Cottage, finally ready to move on from his heartbreak over Marshall Hamston.

The scenes form part of Arthur's new feud with his stepdad Jai Sharma.

Since returning to the village following his extended trip to Australia, Arthur hasn't been afraid to stand up to Jai.

Arthur's mum Laurel has faced a miserable time thanks to Jai's scheming in the wake of their split, although Arthur's interventions have helped to keep Jai in line.

Next week, Jai receives some friendly advice from local vicar Charles Anderson, who suggests that he should do whatever it takes to maintain a positive relationship with Arthur.

Jai realises that it won't be easy when stubborn Arthur continues to ignore him.

The following day, Arthur arranges a date with Lewis and they spend time together at Mulberry Cottage.

The lads are nervous as they drink beer together, with both unsure over what to do next.

Jai is curious when he spots Arthur and Lewis secretly disposing of their beer cans together. Lewis then heads off.

When Arthur notices Jai staring, he worries that his stepdad might tell Laurel about his date. Will Jai interfere, or see this as his chance to score some points with Arthur again?

Arthur's previous romance storyline saw him fall for his schoolmate Marshall. He and Laurel helped Marshall to escape his homophobic father Colin.

However, in July last year, Marshall suggested that it was time to split from Arthur following a string of rows between them. Marshall then went off to live with his auntie.

Emmerdale airs Arthur's new scenes on Friday, September 20.

Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
