Emmerdale fans believe they have cracked the code surrounding Rhona Goskirk's suspicious behaviour, pinpointing the identity of her secretive phone contact. The ITV soap has dropped cryptic hints, leading viewers to a shocking conclusion involving a character thought long gone.
The Mysterious Phone Calls
Earlier this week, following the revelation that Ray Walters had been murdered, Rhona was seen in a hushed and urgent phone conversation. She swiftly hid her phone from her husband, Marlon Dingle, adding to the intrigue. During the call, she was heard asking the mysterious person, "Have you done it?" The context and the caller's identity were deliberately kept from the audience.
The plot thickened during Wednesday's episode when Rhona attempted another covert call. This time, the recipient did not answer. Visibly frustrated, Rhona left a desperate voicemail pleading, "Call me back as soon as possible please. April is going to the police." Her tone suggested this news would seriously impact the listener, even though April's plan was to report Ray and Celia Daniels for drug dealing and sexual exploitation.
Fan Theories Point to a Shocking Return
This series of clandestine communications has sparked intense speculation among the Emmerdale faithful. Many are now theorising that the calls are linked to the dramatic return of Rhona's ex-husband, Graham Foster. Graham shockingly rose from the dead during the Corriedale special event, reappearing after being killed off back in 2020. Notably, he was also seen on the phone in his return scene.
Fans have taken to social media to connect the dots, convinced the timing is no coincidence. One viewer exclaimed on X, formerly Twitter, "It has to be Graham - surely!" Another simply stated, "Graham methinks..." A third fan agreed, writing, "Yes, Rhona still having secret phone chats today and I did wonder if it was to Graham."
Is Graham Involved in Ray's Murder?
The speculation goes deeper, with viewers questioning whether Graham's return is directly tied to Ray Walters' death. One fan posed the theory: "I think it was Graham who Rhona spoke to they were together when he allegedly died I think it was Graham who killed Ray." Another asked, "Rhona's got Graham to kill Ray maybe?"
The warning about April going to the police has further fuelled the fire. A fan queried, "Rhona phoned someone to warn them that April was going to the police station... so that left me more confused… is Rhona in contact with Graham?" The consensus among a vocal section of the audience is clear. As one summed up: "It has to be Graham right? Seems like too much of a coincidence otherwise."
This potential storyline aligns with a popular soap trope of characters returning from the dead, recently seen with the surprise reappearance of characters in Coronation Street and EastEnders. Emmerdale airs weeknights at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
