Emmerdale feud escalates as Ellis tries to kill brother Billy

Things are about to turn deadly between the brothers

| Updated:

The sibling feud between Billy Fletcher and Ellis Chapman reaches boiling point next week when a fight between the brothers turns seriously sinister.

Ever since Billy arrived in the village, he’s been at loggerheads with half brother Ellis. But just when their despairing mum, Jessie, didn’t think things could get any worse, Ellis tries to kill Billy.

Still struggling with his aggression since leaving prison, Billy confides in his mum that he doesn’t know how to control his anger any more.

And when he has a run in with Frank who accidentally knocks into him, it is clear that Jessie’s wayward son has got some serious issues.

But it’s not just Frank who is in the firing line… because by next week the tension between Ellis and Billy is at boiling point.

As Ellis chases Billy outside the pub, the pair clash and as Ellis warns his brother away from Victoria, it doesn’t take long for fists to start flying.

Victoria is terrified that their fight will end badly, and calls Jessie for back up as things escalate.

But before anyone can intervene Ellis steals the car keys to a van and starts driving towards Billy in a fit of rage.

But instead of jumping out of the way, Billy stands his ground and doesn’t move when the speeding car starts hurtling towards him.

Victoria can do nothing by stand by horrified as she watches Ellis trying to run his brother over… and, as the vehicle gets faster, it seems that Ellis has no intention of stopping or swerving.

Could this be the moment that Ellis finishes his brother off for good?

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
