Emmerdale fans have been left full of questions after it was revealed someone had taken up camp in Rishi Sharma's house while he was gone.
During tonight's episode, Rishi returns from visiting his daughter Priya and granddaughter Amba in London. However, he quickly notices something was off inside his house.
Looking around his living room, he asks his son Jai: "Is it me, or something feels different in here." He then goes to make a cup of tea for the two of them and notices that items in the kitchen were not in their usual spot.

He again asks Jai: "Are you sure someone hasn't been in here?" To which Jai replies: "Just me, collecting the post and keeping an eye on the place, why?"
Unconvinced, Rishi repeats: "I don't know. Something feels different here." On his way out to the pub, Rishi then hears creaking inside the house but gets interrupted by his ringing phone before he can investigate.
Still spooked he leaves the house in a hurry but turns around to look at his upstairs window. To his surprise, the curtain twitches.
Fans found it odd that Rishi decided to head to the pub regardless, without checking the bedroom or calling the police. Others were curious to find out who this mystery person holed up in his home might be.
Some think it might be Marshall Hamston hiding from his dad or Marcus Dean, others believe it could be serial killer Meena Jutla.
@mitchell_hurd asked on Twitter: "Who else thinks Meena's escaped prison and lurking in Rishi's house?"
@LukeHayesII1 tweeted: "Is it Marcus who is in Rishi's house? He was homeless before."
@SnowAndBeach wondered: "Is Nikhil back?!"
@TwellyWatcher wrote: "I would love for Rishi’s intruder to be the one and only Meena!! Oh that would be brilliant but it’s not gonna happen. ALTHOUGH If I was to guess I’d probably say Marshall (hiding from his dad who kicked him out maybe) Still want Meena back though."
@jp_jasonpeter queried: "Did Nikhil have a kid? Is that who's at Rishi's house?"
@sofaneilas said: "I betcha it's someone proper random creeping up in his house."
And @29JHall commented: "Soooo Rishi KNOWS there's someone in his house, but instead of seeing who it is, or even calling the police he goes to the pub for something to eat."
