Lat night’s episode of Emmerdale saw Dawn Fletcher and Joe Tate finally give in to inevitability with a kiss. This not-so-shocking turn of events came after Dawn drugged his mum with ketamine in the hope of inducing a confession from Kim.
Convinced that Kim was behind Will’s death, Dawn spiked her morning cup of coffee and demanded answers. However, even under the influence – and seeing visions of dead hubby Will – Kim stuck to her story.
It was then that Joe walked in, finding Kim in a state and Dawn acting suspiciously.

Dawn kisses Joe while Kim is in hospital
Joe rushed Kim to hospital, where she made a quick recovery – and both covered for Dawn. Having apparently accepted Kim’s innocence, Dawn made her peace and agreed to let the whole murder accusation thing go.
Back at home (farm), Joe and Dawn shared a moment on the sofa… and then a kiss. Dawn pulled back and Joe assured her that it was okay, but it’s clear that there’s unfinished business between the pair.

Their hook-up may have been on the cards from the start, but where this relationship is headed is anyone’s guess.
