The village is still reeling from the shock of Ethan Anderson’s (Emile John) sudden death, but no one more so than Ruby Fox-Miligan (Beth Cordingly), who cruelly ran him over with her car in revenge for Nicky’s (Lewis Cope) accident that Ethan caused.
That said, she dodged a bullet when he died and took the secret of her involvement with Rose – which will see Dawn become collateral damage – to the grave.
Initially, Ethan had got up and walked away from the hit and run, albeit in agonising pain, and Ruby made it clear that if he was to reveal her identity as the driver, she’d finish the job.
He appeared to recover, but in a saddening twist, he clutched his head in pain before collapsing at home and dying.
