Emmerdale drops huge hint that serial killer Meena Jutla is returning to terrorise village – but did you spot it?
EMMERDALE aired the biggest clue yet that the former serial killer will return to the Dales.
Fans are convinced Meena Jutla (Paige Sandhu) will return to the village after newcomer Ella Forster (Paula Lane) asked questions about the serial killer in a recent episode.
Could Ella be connected to Meena? Is Ella Meena's way of returning to the Emmerdale village.
The doctor’s surgery receptionist first arrived in the ITV soap earlier this year.
Since then Ella has built friendships with Mandy Dingle (Lisa Riley) and Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley).
She flirted with Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) as they bonded over a love of houseplants and clashed with Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker).
However, viewers have grown suspicious of her after she appeared curious about Manpreet’s evil sister Meena Jutla and started asking questions about her.
The nature of her questions left viewers wondering if she had sinister links to the village serial killer.
Meena wreaked havoc when she killed Liam’s daughter Leanna, Andrea Tate and Ben Tucker.
Her dramatic storyline came to an end in April 2022 as she was finally sentenced in court.
Ella also quizzed Dawn and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) about the time they were kidnapped by Meena - but why?
She also mentioned an old friend who suggested that she should become a nurse, and many have been speculating that it was Meena.
Fans flocked to social media to share their theories about Ella's connection to Meena, with many predicting a return for the serial killer.
One said: "Ella in @emmerdale is definitely something to do with Meena! She’s been sent to administer some destruction on the village!"
Another wrote: "Ella is connected to Meena... who shall be returning soon."
A third penned: "Mention of A mystery ex friend of Ella’s who told her to be a nurse. Hmm interesting."
Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
