Emmerdale‘s Moira Dingle will be left devastated over her future, as she’s dealt a final crushing blow.
Things haven’t been going well for Moira lately, due to the ongoing troubles at Butler’s Farm.
Moira has been juggling huge financial issues, which were made even worse by a serious leak with the slurry tank. The leak contaminated the village’s main water supply, landing young Harry Sugden in hospital.
Though it was caused by John Sugden, Moira was held responsible for the leak, and had to pay an eye-watering fine.
In upcoming episodes, Moira is receives even more bad news when Noel, a representative from the water company, arrives.

Noel informs her that her recent appeal has been turned down and she will be forced to pay the whole fine. Devastated Moira realises that after 16 years, she may lose the farm for good.
Meanwhile, rumours about the farm’s future circulate around the village, piquing the interest of Joe Tate. With Kim in Dubai, Joe is handling her affairs, and he approaches Moira with another offer to buy the farm.
Moira is reluctant to sell to Kim, but struggles to find an alternative solution to her troubles. Cain shares his support, assuring his wife that she’ll make the right decision.
“Moira has seen the writing on the wall for the farm for a few weeks now,” our Emmerdale source admits.
“The latest news that the fine will stand seems to be the final straw. Selling up to Kim would be the last thing Moira would want as there’s years of animosity between them, but are things so desperate that she’ll have to consider it?”
