Emmerdale SPOILER: Samson is caught out over his blackmail plot

Samson is set to play the hero whilst blackmailing his cousin Noah in dramatic upcoming episodes of Emmerdale on ITV. 

Last week, Samson bagged himself £2,000 after encouraging Noah to pay him off in return for staying away from Amelia Spencer and baby Esther. 

When Samson and Amelia’s daughter was born last October, Samson shocked the village when he refused to have anything to do with her.

But recently Samson has started taking an interest in Esther after hearing that Amelia’s boyfriend Noah had been granted a trust fund containing thousands of pounds.

In scenes to be shown next week Amelia (Daisy Campbell) is pleased Samson (Sam Hall) is taking more of an interest in Esther.

Later, as Samson reluctantly babysits, Sarah discovers Esther has a burning temperature. 

Panicked, they call an ambulance to take her to hospital. Dan praises Samson for calling the ambulance.

Soon everyone is relieved to hear Esther will be okay, but Noah hates the praise Samson is receiving for ‘saving’ Esther. 

Later, Samson arrives under false pretences to check on Esther – but instead, demands more money from Noah, to stay out of Amelia and Esther’s life. 

The next day, Noah pays off Samson via bank transfer. 

The minute Samson receives Noah’s money he revokes his desire to spend time with Esther and Amelia is devastated by Samson’s change of heart. 

She’s now worried she won’t be able to afford Esther’s childcare. 

A thought strikes her that maybe Noah could help pay for it with his inheritance, but she’s disgusted by Noah’s reaction that she only uses him as a cash machine.
