But in order to do that he has to sell his own B&B – and put plans for his retirement on hold.

Viewers have watched for years as David has repeatedly abandoned his shop for trips abroad.

He even let his ex-girlfriend Victoria Sugden sell her son Harry’s inheritance to give him the cash to prop up his business.

But after multiple mistakes and dodgy schemes to keep his shop, David finally agreed to sell up.

However when Eric realised that meant his son would be leaving the village, he made a shock decision.

He put in an asking price offer for the shop, business and cottage.

Emmerdale: David needs to fail

With no changes, the business will still fail – so it’s been a pointless exercise.
