As the investigation began, Cathy and Angelica started playing the blame game. While the fans remember Cathy being on the steering wheel, she totally denied it. She just called ‘Angel.’ One of the Emmerdale fans suggested, “I actually think Cathy might be telling the truth this time, and Angelica was driving.” Another added, “Bob won’t believe Cathy because of her track record and will give her a hard time.
