Emmerdale shock as Heath Hope’s killer confesses – and it’s NOT his sister Cathy

EMMERDALE has dropped a shocking bombshell tonight revealing the identity of Heath Hope’s killer.

The teenager died in a car crash after he went joyriding with his sister Cathy and pal Angelica King.

Cathy, who originally took the car, has been blamed but she has been insisting she wasn’t driving when the crash happened.

However no-one, including her own dad Hope believes her.

But tonight it was revealed that she has been telling the truth all along.

After the emotional funeral, Nicola King found her daughter Angel, standing by Heath’s grave silently.

“I went home to check on you and just wondered where you’d got to,” she said to Angel.

As Nicola told her daughter she would leave her alone with her thoughts, Angel asked how the funeral was.

“Heartbreaking,” Nicola replied, adding: “You and Elliot made the right decision not to come.

“I just feel so grateful that it wasn’t either of you that we said goodbye to today.”

But Angel told her: “It might be. I could go to prison. I’m sorry.”

Nicola replied: “You’re not going to prison love, you’ve done nothing wrong. It’s just a horrible horrible situation.”

But before Nicola could comfort her daughter more she made a shocking confession - she killed Heath.

“I haven’t been honest with you about the accident,” Angel said to a confused Nicola.

“It wasn’t Cathy driving. It was me.”

The bombshell rocked Nicola - but will she expose her daughter as a killer, or will she let Cathy face prison for her brother’s death?
