Viewers think they know who killed Nate Robinson on Emmerdale following the discovery of a body in a lake this week.
The soap appeared to give away on Friday night that the body was Nate, after Amy Wyatt had spotted a clue to her ex's true fate. Sadly Amy died following the limo crash, and she wasn't able to tell anyone properly what she saw.
She did try to communicate her find to husband Matty Barton but he didn't understand what she was saying. Seconds later she passed away, so now only Nate's killer knows his true whereabouts and fate.
Clues that alluded to the body being Nate included a jacket sleeve matching the one he was last wearing, as well as bracelet his daughter Frankie had made him. Since his apparent exit in September, no one has really heard from him.
After a misunderstanding with his dad Cain Dingle and partner Tracy Robinson, Nate decided to move away to Shetland for a new job. But every time Tracy has tried to speak with him he's refused, not answering his calls or voicemails and only messaging via text.

On Friday as a grief-stricken Tracy called her ex, she begged him to come home and told him she missed him. She was reeling from the limo accident, and the loss of Amy, Suzy Merton and her close friend Leyla Harding.
As the conversation went on, with Nate not picking up his phone, the camera panned back to the lake and the body sinking to the bottom in a body bag. We once again saw the arm with the bracelet, with the scene airing alongside the call to Nate - therefore appearing to confirm this was Nate's body.
Not only that but someone was seen watching the lake as an investigation into the crash continued. As Nate's body sank it remained undiscovered, as the units at the scene all left.

A hooded figure, with his back to the camera, was shown by the lake watching the last vans leave. It seems clear that his person knows what really happened to Nate, and is likely the person who killed him and dumped his body.
Fans are now convinced they know who killed Nate and who the hooded person is. While some speculation has fallen on Caleb Miligan, Nate's uncle, and even Tom King, one name in particular is being shared more than most.
Even Nate's cousin Aaron Dingle has fallen under suspicion, but fans are sure it was John Sugden who caused Nate's demise. Not only was he the last person to see Nate alive onscreen, but he was the one telling everyone Nate had left.
He was acting weirdly and in his van a lot around the day Nate vanished, and we know he isn't fazed by dead bodies given he very easily disposed of murdered Anthony Fox's corpse just weeks ago. Taking to social media, one fan said: "Can't believe us 'John Sugden' serial killer believers on tumblr were right."
Another fan agreed: "Reckon Nate was poking about in Johns camper and found something." A third fan said: "I vaguely remember a scene where John was acting weird near his van & had the slide door open but someone appeared and he quickly closed the door as though he was hiding something inside…possibly Nate’s body?"
