Moira Dingle has never been the type to sit idly by and watch injustice, and this time, her impulsiveness mixed with righteousness hits the wrong opponent in Emmerdale: Celia – the female boss behind a series of pitch-black crimes in the village.

When Bear mysteriously disappears, April changes her personality, Dylan gets into an accident, Moira begins to smell something very wrong.

She pieces together seemingly disjointed pieces of information, follows Ray’s trail, and finally touches Celia’s name like touching a hot coal.

For Moira, knowing but doing nothing is unacceptable. She decides to confront it head-on, instead of secretly collecting evidence like a “normal person”.

The confrontation between Moira and Celia was therefore tense from the very first second: without beating around the bush, without any formalities, Moira threw a list of what she believed Celia had done – from turning the weak into slave labor, to forcing April to deliver drugs and staging Dylan’s accident. In Moira’s eyes, Celia was not a negotiating partner, but a piece of trash that needed to be swept out of everyone’s lives.

But Celia was not the type of villain who “can’t argue, then shut up”. She knew how to use every word to turn the situation around, sowing doubt that Moira was “imagining too much”, even using the Dingle family’s own flawed past to turn the spearhead: “Who do you think will believe you more than me?”. The war of words quickly slipped out of the realm of words. A push, a grab of the shirt, a misstep – and immediately, Moira fell into “mortal danger”, standing between life and death in a split second.
