After bullying Archie for months, the truth eventually came out.

With the adults now aware of Arthur’s cruel behaviour, Archie began to use this to his advantage, threatening to get Arthur in trouble if he didn’t do as he said.

Another incident occurred where Archie fell off a bookshelf he had climbed.

However, Archie told his family that Arthur had pushed him.

Will the two boys ever be able to put the past behind them and be friends?

Emmerdale is on next week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7pm on ITV.
