Moira rushes into the Dingles’ cottage and makes damning accusations against Samson, pointing out that his motives for leaving the country seem suspicious. She can tell that Samson is trying to escape the fallout from his false accusations against Matty.
Sam is disgusted by Moira’s attitude and once again defends his son, still believing him to be innocent.
Samson reassures Sam that he’ll be back in the village in time for Matty’s trial, so Sam agrees that he can leave with Josh. Moira refuses to let this go and privately vows to thwart their plans.
Later in the week, Samson’s stepmum Lydia starts to realise that he might be lying.

Swallowing her pride, Lydia meets with Moira. Moira is relieved over this potential breakthrough and begs Lydia to help, but will she be willing to do so?
Emmerdale‘s big story for Samson started last month when he was accidentally stabbed during an attempted robbery at The Hide.
With Josh determined to cover up the truth about what happened, he pressured Samson into lying that Matty attacked him deliberately.
Emmerdale airs these scenes in the week commencing Monday, July 8.
