Last night’s episode of Emmerdale (Tuesday, June 20), saw Nicky reveal himself as the person who pushed Caleb.
He confirmed this as he visited his dad in hospital, expressing his fear over almost killing him.
Now, Emmerdale fans have complained over the huge reveal, branding it as really ‘obvious.’
Emmerdale: Nicky pushed Caleb
Last week, a mysterious villager pushed Caleb off a woodland ridge leading to him being taken to hospital and put in a coma. Several villagers had strong motives for pushing him, with Mack being the prime suspect.
Other villagers had alibis although they hadn’t informed the police about them.
Cain had been with Zak, helping him after finding him on the floor, unwell. Leyla had also been out, trying to score as Caleb’s betrayal made her want to relapse.
However, the truth was revealed to viewers as Nicky visited Caleb in hospital last night and feared that he’d almost killed his dad.
Emmerdale fans brand Nicky reveal as too ‘obvious’
Emmerdale fans have branded the Nicky reveal as too ‘obvious’ and already saw this one coming, disappointed with the identity of Caleb’s attacker.
One Emmerdale viewer tweeted: “Ooh it was Nicky what a shocker (not) I think we all guessed.”

#emmerdale Aha, it WAS Nicky! We were all waiting for his confession 😅

Another person tweeted: “Hearing that it was Nicky who pushed Caleb in Emmerdale. 1. One of the most obvious Whodunnits ever. Nicky was missing for over a week. 2. If you do a Whodunnit at least make it more believable and prolonged. At least EastEnders know how to do it.”
A third fan wrote: “Aha, it WAS Nicky! We were all waiting for his confession.”
What’s next for Nicky after that big reveal?
Nicky Miligan actor, Lewis Cope, has confirmed that Nicky acted in the ‘spur of the moment’.
The actor has revealed how Nicky’s feeling after pushing Caleb. He explained: “The moment he pushed him he felt massive regret.”
“But also relief because his dad’s manipulated him for so long and betrayed him. He still loves his dad, and it would be tragic if he was to die. Plus, of course, if they find out it was Nicky who pushed Caleb, he could go to prison.”
Can Nicky be forgiven? Lewis shared: “I’d like to think they could resolve it, but from Caleb’s point of view, Nicky’s messed up his plan for revenge, and tried to kill him! There’s a mountain to climb before Caleb will forgive.”
