Emmerdale - Season 27 Episode 125 : Episode 2429 (Tue 13th Oct 1998) 2026

Barbara Kirk is vying with Viv for the title mother-from-hell as she tries to find ways to end her son's on-off relationship with Mandy and after chatting to her new found ally she believes she's discovered the Dingles Achilles heel - money! First she tries to offer Mandy money to set-up her own business - but only if she'll leave Emmerdale. Then when she's rudely turned down, she offers Mandy several thousand pounds to marry someone else. Suddenly Mandy seems to pay attention. Kathy has started to move, but Betty jumps the gun saying that she's on a fast track to recovery. None of this is good news for Steve and once again Chris doesn't waste the opportunity with a poor joke that Kathy is already talking to the police. After a good fill at The Woolpack Steve rolls home to a less than pleased Kim. He's still worried that Kathy might have seen him, despite what he'd earlier told his wife.
