Next week, an accident in Emmerdale leads Graham to question Millie's paternity and Harriet's relationship with Will is outed to the church by a seething Moira.

Here's a look at the nine big stories coming up.

1. Millie's accident

There's horror at Home Farm next week as Millie is involved in an accident and this causes an even bigger worry for Andrea.

Jamie stubbornly ignores Kim's warnings about horse Blaze and rides anyway, only to lose. With Blaze gone wild, the other horses are spooked and the ensuing chaos leaves Millie in danger.

After Millie is knocked down, they rush her to hospital and wait for the verdict. Jamie blames himself, but Kim manages to reassure him that it was just an accident. As Jamie and Kim fuss over Millie's bedside, Andrea has concerns when Graham begins asking awkward questions…

2. Is Graham Millie's Dad?

When Andrea reveals Millie's date of birth, alarm bells start ringing for Graham and he asks an anxious Andrea if he is Millie's father. Andrea manages to palm him off, plagued with secret dread, and proceeds to ignore his phone calls.

Graham returns to the hospital to confront a panicking Andrea, demanding answers but Andrea is broken, fearing her whole family is built on a lie. Andrea begs Graham to keep their one-night stand secret, unable to bear Jamie knowing.

Again, Andrea reasserts that Graham is not Millie's father, but her anxious reaction only leaves him more convinced. Is he right?

3. Moira and Nate are almost caught – again!

It's another close call for frisky Moira and Nate next week when a bunk-up is disturbed by Matty. Determined to make the most of their time together, Moira and Nate get it on in the caravan, only for Matty to try and open the door.

Failing to gain entry, Matty and Ryan hunker down outside the caravan and light up a spliff, leaving Moira trapped and panicked. Eventually seeing a way to escape unnoticed, Moira climbs out, but is shocked to come face to face with Matty.

Despite almost being caught out herself, Moira's seething at Matty for taking drugs after what happened to Holly.

As the anniversary of Holly's tragic death approaches, Moira is grateful for Harriet's kind words during this difficult time. Her mood shifts however when she learns of Harriet's relationship with Will and is shocked to hear from Cain that he already knew their history.

After this revelation, Moira's convinced that Will is the dealer who sold Matty the weed, but even with Cain trying to talk some sense into her, Moira's on the warpath and her anger has big consequences for Harriet.

Right in the middle of Harvest festival, Moira storms into the church and interrupts the service to reveal Will's past as a drug trafficker. There's a ripple of shock through the congregation at the news and Harriet is left reeling to see her relationship outed in the worst possible way.

As Harriet is left to pick up the pieces of her reputation, Cain is appalled by Moira's venomous words and horrified that she would do such a thing to Harriet. What next for their crumbling marriage?

6. Faith and Zak's secret is out

Faith and Bear are back to their games of tit for tat next week when she rejects his advances. Viewers will remember Faith exposed Bear's illiteracy secret to cover her own back, when he discovered her and Zak conspiring in the cellar, but now it's Bear's turn for payback.

A guilty Faith has managed to hide her illicit kiss with Zak from the rest of the Dingles so far, but that is threatened this week as Bear gets his revenge. Spurned by Faith, Bear reveals her secret kiss with Zak – right in front of Belle.

Having only recently lost mum Lisa, this is bound to upset Belle. How will the rest of the family react?

7. Billy encourages Ellis

Billy's got his brother's best interests at heart when he encourages a smitten Ellis to tell Belle how he really feels. There have been early signs that there could be a romantic future for these two, but will Belle feel the same?

Regardless of how things turn out next week, it looks like Ellis and Belle's future as a couple will be put on hold after actor Asan N’Jie's immediate firing from the show.

8. Mandy causes havoc with Paddy and Chas

Chas isn't keen to go, so Mandy steps in for Paddy, but will this cause friction between the couple?
