Emmerdale Shock: Mackenzie Boyd Isn’t Alone in the Secret Bunker – Anthony Emerges

Emmerdale viewers believe they’ve figured out who else is trapped in John Sugden’s secret bunker alongside Mackenzie Boyd.

Mackenzie (played by Lawrence Robb) was assaulted by the clandestine k.i.l.l.e.r, John Sugden (portrayed by Oliver Farnworth), last week after he deduced that John was responsible for Nate Robinson’s (Jurrell Carter) m.u.r.d.e.r last year and the subsequent disposal of his body in a lake.

In a desperate bid to prevent Mack from escaping, a high-stakes confrontation ensued in the woods, during which John shot Mack with an arrow and seemed to finish him off with a rock.

However, in a shocking turn of events, it was unveiled that a severely injured Mack is actually alive and being held prisoner by John in a hidden underground bunker in the woods.

In Monday’s episode (1 September), John paid a visit to Mack, who woke up demanding explanations. In an attempt to establish a rapport with his captor, Mack persuaded John to confess his crimes, reports the Daily Star.

Mack then begged John to release him, promising in return to head to Scotland and keep quiet about everything. Initially, John appeared conflicted and seemed to contemplate his offer.

However, when Mack tried to attack John, he had a change of heart and made it clear he had no intention of letting him go.

Now, in what could be another significant plot twist, fans speculate there’s another person in the bunker with Mack. According to chatter on an Emmerdale Facebook fan page, viewers suspect that Anthony Fox’s (Nicholas Day) corpse might also be in the bunker.

Viewers will remember that Anthony was k.i.l.l.e.d by his daughter Ruby Miligan-Fox (Beth Cordingly), following years of abuse she endured at his hands. John subsequently assisted by disposing of the body and concealing the crime.

Nevertheless, he never revealed the location where Anthony’s remains were hidden – and now, fans believe he is buried in the bunker alongside Mack.

One viewer posted: “100% Anthony’s down there with Mack.” Another commented: “Yep probably has his body stored there!” A third suggested: “I thought that and maybe other bodies.” Someone else also questioned: “I’m guessing Anthony is in there with Mack?”

Emmerdale airs weeknights on ITV1 and ITVX at 7.30pm
