Emmerdale ****SPOILERS THREAD****

[ZibbidooZibbidooZibbidoo]

Knock yourselves out

Just seen a spoiler of a death at new year

I read of a death too. Wonder if it's the same person

I think people will be happy with this spoiler https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/emmerdale/a63302478/emmerdale-susan-cookson-exit-final-scenes/

I heard a while back that Leyla is getting killed off for new year. Is that who everyone else has? Bit of a shocker having 2 deaths over Christmas isn't it. Will was a nice shock.

@JewelleryCat your Wendy spoiler has made my year!! 🎉

I thought people might be happy with that lol. There is a rumour/spoiler on that link that Leyla might get killed off and obviously Brenda is leaving too

”And there are further exits to come in Emmerdale soon, with Lesley Dunlop's (Brenda Walker) departure storyline already having begun.
Roxy Shahidi (Leyla Harding) has also been tipped to leave, with a big stunt set to air soon that she features in along with two other characters”

A lot of characters lost in the space of a month
Amelia and Esther
Will
Tom
Brenda
Leyla
Wendy

I've read Manpreet is going too at some point. And Ella is leaving too in the spring apparently.

I hope they are not going replace them with a load of new randoms.

Although to be fair the village surgery is massively over staffed so having just Liam and Dodgy John left running the surgery is more realistic.

That's a pleasant surprise re Wendy. She's been a pointless character for a while now - a non nurse and grandma to an invisible child.

Apart from Tom, all of them have been on our screens for years so why get rid of them and keep the newbies who we don’t really like? (I know we don’t like some of the older cast but I’d prefer they got rid of the newer cast first)

I suppose it must be frustrating being someone like Leyla who's rarely on screen if you're the kind of person who likes to be busier.

I wonder if certain actors have deliberately not been given storylines recently with a cull in mind. Leyla has had nothing for months. Brenda has been absent a lot despite her relatives having major storylines. Wendy has also been on the back burner although I did enjoy her and Brenda's Christmas day spat over Wendy not cooking from scratch.

I've always wondered if they get paid the same if they're barely on screen.

I read somewhere about how Corrie pays their cast and I think the older ones like Ken, Rita etc are on a contract but the newer cast are paid per episode or I think it’s something like that though I did get my information from the DM so I could be wrong but maybe Emmerdale is like that too with paying their cast

Has anyone seen the latest teaser on the Emmerdale Instagram page?

No please tell us

Is it the one with Cain and the graveside? I’ve seen the picture just now but can’t seen anything else because I don’t have instagram

Yes it is, and also Caleb on life support and a hand underneath a frozen lake or river

Is Mackenzie running away from John?

Oh goodness, I didn’t see those

Oh I just watched tonight's and they are all at the end of the episode, flash forwards I guess of what's to come.

Thank you 🙂 I’m watching it now so I’ll see them at the end of the episode

@JewelleryCat I've seen it suggested it's Leyla under the ice!

Doesn't look like her hand though!

Yes I saw that as well. I wonder who the body in the bag is!

I know she’s rumoured to go but it doesn’t look like her hand. I still think it’ll be Joe. He is taking a lot of painkillers so maybe he’ll get trapped under the ice whilst in pain or something

I couldn't make head nor tail of the videos.
Unfortunately none of them looked like the old sleazeball. FFS Ruby - just tell everyone what he did especially as the whole village now thinks he's a saint.
