Plus, Leanna is left feeling disconcerted, David snogs Victoria, while Mack learns a secret… it’s your guide to all the upcoming Emmerdale spoilers for the week of the 5-9 July 2021:

Meena tries to manipulate Jacob

Fans who’ve been watching for a while will remember that Jacob has been manipulated by an older woman in the past.

She’s now offering to pay for his air fare if he wants to go travelling with Leanna, just as long as he keeps it a secret. But just when Meena is about to celebrate Jacob’s exit, he bursts her bubble. Expect Jacob to be left with a warning that Meena oughtn’t to be messed with, but what will she do next to get him out of the way? And might her actions result in murder?

Is Leanna in big danger?

Manpreet wants to give her old travelling rucksack to Leanna but is unaware that Meena has stashed some personal possessions inside.

Not wanting anyone to see what she’s hidden away, Meena then goes all out to retrieve the rucksack and confronts Leanna in her bedroom. The baffled teen is left totally creeped out by this sudden and unexpected intrusion – but how far will Meena go to get her possessions back?

David and Victoria kiss

Someone else who ought to be watching their back where Meena is concerned is Victoria, who will soon be found getting amorous with David.

Prior to their surprise snog, the two of them will be seen making plans to look after their babies together. But it isn’t long before the sparks are flying as David and Vic start enjoying each other’s company a little bit too much, if you know what I mean.

Mack learns some gossip

Matty puts his foot in it big time when he lets slip to Mack about Leanna’s infatuation with Billy. Knowing how Mack can’t resist making mischief, Billy is left seething as he realises he won’t now hear the end of it.

But might the village’s version of Loki be maturing somewhat? Ryan is certainly left pleased when Mack appears to heed his warning to leave things alone where Dawn is concerned. But there’s always the possibility with Mack that he may just be biding his time…

Crowded house for Pollard

Pollard is desperate to make amends with Brenda, who soon finds herself powerless to resist him. What an old smoothie! Following the reconciliation, a loved-up Brenda suggests an alternative course of action when it comes to Faith who, prior to this point, was expecting to be shown the door at Pollard’s Barn.

But the rethink results in a new offer being put to Faith: she can stay living at Eric’s, but only if Brenda can move in too in order to ensure that there’s no funny business going on. It’s a deal that leaves Faith feeling extremely grateful for her friends’ support.
