Emmerdale airs most terrifying John Sugden twist yet in tense ITVX cliffhanger

Heads up! Today’s (September 4, 2025) episode of Emmerdale has been released on ITVX, but be aware that it may include plot twists and surprises.

In the episode of Emmerdale airing on the 4th of September 2025, John Sugden, portrayed by Oliver Farnworth, takes a particularly chilling action. However, viewers should brace themselves for an even more nerve-wracking event coming up in next week’s installment!

Instead of John asking Mackenzie Boyd (played by Lawrence Robb) to record a message from the bunker claiming he left his wife Charity Dingle (portrayed by Emma Atkins), John opted for an innovative solution when Mackenzie refused: he utilized AI technology to fabricate a false message.

In simpler terms, after the shocking revelation of John discovering that Aaron Dingle (played by Danny Miller) had been unfaithful with Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley), the situation seems to be escalating even further.

Aware that Aaron isn’t sure about his future with John, John secretly spikes a bottle of whiskey.

In a short time, he urges Aaron to take a sip, and it doesn’t take much time before Aaron feels the impact, even after just one glass.

I’m stepping out now, as John is taking care of Aaron, to gather some firewood, leaving Aaron blissfully unaware as he continues sipping on his whiskey.

While Mack remains imprisoned within the underground bunker, he unexpectedly becomes a trusted ally to John. As Mack grows concerned for Aaron’s safety, he embarks on a frantic attempt to break free from his confinement.

In the most recent episode, actor Robb delivered an exceptionally captivating performance, standing out among his impressive weekly portrayals.

In a short while, you’ll find yourself rooting for Mack as he puts every ounce of his energy into escaping from the aging bomb shelter. However, it won’t take long before Aaron finds himself in serious trouble, and John starts moving through the forest.

The events that ensue place Aaron and Mack in grave peril. If you want to catch up, switch to ITVX right away, or else tune into ITV1 at 7:30 PM.
