Emmerdale spoilers, Lydia Dingle.

Emmerdale's Lydia Dingle bonds with a newcomer, which threatens to destroy her friendship with Kim Tate in Friday's episode (ITV, 7.30pm, see our TV Guide for full listings).

Kim has had a very unwelcome visitor living in her home after her husband Will Taylor's ex-wife Rose rocked up in the village wanting to reconcile with her estranged daughter Dawn Taylor.

Dawn invited Rose to temporarily live with them at Home Farm and it's safe to say Kim is not happy about it!

Kim has made it clear that she is not welcome and Rose is reeling as the businesswoman continues to exclude her from the family.

Could this endanger Lydia's friendship with Kim?
