ITV Emmerdale fans collectively let out a sigh of relief as Mackenzie Boyd was finally found after weeks of being trapped by the sneaky John Sugden.

Awaking from his own attack at the hands of John, Aaron Dingle spilled the truth in Thursday night’s episode – telling bemused mum Chas Dingle that it was John who threw him off the gorge after all.

@seventiesstyle said: “John is bound to make a re-appearance at some point now he has dropped Mack off at the hospital: looking at a SSW where he comes back & drama occurs: with Aaron & Rob at the forefront please”

@miss_kattz said: “John dropping off Mack?!? Made no sense? Why is no one taking a proper statement of Aaron? Do they only have one DS?”

Yet, some fans think this is all one big part of some greater ploy from John, and not just some random move of regret or remorse. Fans are now predicting that John still wants to “finish the job” – but that he is biding his time.

@astrangepoetry said: “We’ll definitely get more in upcoming episodes because the john stuff is far from done but you only get once chance to really showcase the first time these characters find out the truth and they made it feel so flat!”

@ClaudiaBoleyn said: “What happened doesn’t surprise me. (John) has a soft spot for (Mack) in the creepiest ‘serial killer’s favourite victim’ sense.”

Now, while Mack’s fate remains unknown, it’s anyone’s guess whether John will follow through with his dastardly deeds.
