Emmerdale - Andy Sugden will risk Pete Barton's life as an adventure activity day looks set to go horribly wrong.

Andy agrees to come along when Pete Barton celebrates his birthday by going motorcycle scrambling for the afternoon.

With Andy still harbouring grief and anger over the death of his wife Katie, it doesn't take long before his inner turmoil starts affecting his judgement on the day - with potentially deadly consequences.

Kelvin Fletcher, who plays Andy, revealed: "Andy thinks that he might as well go and have some fun with Pete, but he's still agitated and angry. He's in the worst possible state of mind to go riding a motocross bike, which is pretty dangerous at the best of times! They receive a safety talk, but Andy is too pig-headed to listen to it properly. He wants to get out, ride and vent his anger out. When they finally get the go-ahead to get on with it, Andy just races off into the distance."

Tensions rise between Pete and Andy
Reckless Andy is given a wake-up call when he reaches a restricted track and stops suddenly, spotting a steep drop right ahead. His thoughts then immediately turn to Pete, who is in hot pursuit right behind.

"Andy has driven straight through the 'no entry' barrier and crashed. He realises that huge danger is imminent, so he turns to notify Pete. Pete is racing and trying to catch him after they've had this huge argument. Andy waves at him saying, 'Stop, stop!' Literally within the next few minutes it turns out to be quite a big hazard,'' Fletcher continued.

Emmerdale fans will have to tune in to see exactly what happens, but it looks like Pete could be about to pay the price for Andy's erratic behaviour.

Pondering the possibility, Fletcher added: "I think Andy would be mortified if anything happened to Pete. Andy's very different to characters like Robert and Ross in that sense. Collateral damage would be quite a lot for Andy to cope with. He wouldn't want anyone else to get hurt other than Robert, his intended victim."
