Emmerdale airs tragedy next week, as teenager Marshall Hamston is found unconscious after downing booze to numb his secret agony.
The character, who was recently disowned by his father after revealing he was gay, struggles to cope in upcoming scenes - but his actions leave him fighting for his life.
Marshall will seemingly end up choking on vomit, after getting drunk alone in his room. He is currently staying at Laurel Thomas' house, after she discovered he had been attacked by his father.
