Emmerdale fans believe they've spotted a vital clue about the recent twist involving Ethan Anderson that could clear his name.

In Friday's episode, Ethan was wrongfully arrested after Suni Sharma was attacked in the previous episode. Suni was rushed to hospital following a homophobic attack and Ethan was framed by one of the attackers, Mike, in a shocking turn of events.

Before this, Suni had been out with Gabby Thomas and Ethan. During their night out, Nicky, who Suni had recently broken up with, showed up and they made up.

Before their reconciliation, Gabby had been talking to Mike. When she saw her ex, Nicky, she confronted him at the bar. Mike offered to step in and, after Nicky and Suni made up and shared a kiss, Mike decided to confront them. He and his friends followed the couple, making homophobic remarks.

Mike and his gang then attacked Suni while Nicky was held back, unable to help. The attack stopped when Ethan and Gabby saw what was happening, but things got worse when the police arrived and Mike walked over looking pleased with himself.

Mike wrongly accused Ethan of carrying a knife, leaving both Ethan and Gabby shocked. As Mike insisted the police search for the non-existent weapon, an exasperated Ethan confronted him, saying: "You're making this up, tell them!" In a surprising turn of events, the police arrested Ethan.

After being questioned by the police, Ethan was dealt another blow when his workplace called to suspend him. Fans took to X, formally know as Twitter, to express their shock, with one writing: "Suspended, oh my god poor Ethan he didn't do anything. # Emmerdale!", while another added: "Ethan's been suspended as a lawyer #Emmerdale" alongside a crying emoji.

Viewers also suggested that CCTV footage could prove Ethan's innocence and expose Mike's lies. One fan tweeted: "Ethan better not get the blame for that it was that creep Mike isn't there cctv around there !! #Emmerdale!"

One viewer wrote: "oh c'mon, CCTV, plenty of witnesses???? #emmerdale", while another questioned: "So there's no CCTV in the area, then?! That copper… Pathetic #Emmerdale". A different fan commented: "This is stupid. CCTV anyone? #emmerdale" and another added: "There must be CCTV around. Oh wait a minute….it won't be working #Emmerdale."

Emmerdale is on every weekday at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX, with an extra-long episode on Thursdays.
