ROBERT Sugden and Aaron Dingle will unwittingly get Victoria Sugden arrested in Emmerdale next week as they continue their plan to expose Lee, the evil man who raped her.
The couple have tracked Lee down to a car dealership and will decorate the motors with homemade posters featuring Lee and the word ‘rapist’. The lads head home, pleased that their trip has been a success.
But when they get back they are greeted by a livid Victoria who’s found the posters. When she finds out they’ve fly-posted them, she hits the roof.
Robert – who’s played by Ryan Hawley in the ITV soap – and Aaron then try to undo their handiwork and begin to remove some of the posters they put up along a roadside. But as they do, they spot a fuming Lee taking some from the dealership.
Later, everyone is shocked when the police arrive and inform them that a complaint has been made about Victoria and the posters.
Victoria – Isabel Hodgins – is incensed and tells a guilty Robert that she wants nothing more to do with him.
The next day Aaron – Danny Miller – takes it upon himself to try and fix Robert and Victoria’s relationship and tries to encourage Vic to see things from Robert’s point of view. He tries to tell her that Robert was trying to help – in his own way.
A day later, Robert and Victoria both visit their dad, Jack’s, grave and Robert tells an emotional Victoria that all he’s ever wanted is to be there for her and keep her safe.
Will they work things out? And will Victoria persuade the police that the posters were nothing to do with her?
Victoria was raped back in April following a night out in Hotten. She found herself stranded at the end of the night when everyone went home without her.
Lee – who she’d briefly chatted to in the club – seemed like a knight in shining armour when he saved her from one of his drunken mates before walking her back to the village.
But things took a dark turn when they got back to Victoria’s with Lee manipulating his way into her home. She became concerned when he refused to leave and – later – he followed her into the bedroom where he called her a tease before pushing her face down on the bed and raping her.
An distraught Victoria only revealed the ordeal weeks later when Moira Barton visited her.
