The episodes will air as part of a special week featuring flashforwards and cryptic scenes, all happening on the day of Mandy Dingle and Paul Ashdale's wedding.

Soap boss Jane Hudson teased a death which will shock viewers but the identity of the victim or victims remains secret.

It's also known that three mystery characters will be in hospital beds, but viewers won't know who they are until the week plays out.

Cast members Lisa Riley, Nick Miles, Isobel Steele and Reece Dinsdale have spoken about what is planned.

Reece, who plays Paul, said: "I love the fact this week what the writers have done is made it like a whodunnit, with all sorts of little things being put together by different characters.

"It's gobsmacking what we see. I did see some of the footage and it is awesome."

Isobel, who plays Liv Flaherty, described the week as ‘explosive’ and added: "I can't say too much but we know there is a stunt, and there is quite a lot of lead up to it and then it gets viewers on the edge of seats in preparation for it.

"It's brilliant, we've seen a little bit of footage and I think it's great and I'm really impressed Emmerdale managed to do it in Covid times. I'm proud and excited for people to see it."

Lisa, known to fans as soap icon Mandy Dingle, also shared some hints, saying: "It truly is cinematic, it is the week. Everyone has been waiting to see what happens next and they're gonna get everything played out in the week.

"We shot it all over five weeks, and it has everything. Everything that people wanna see and feel as in the emotions, it's gonna happen.

"There is not one emotion we haven't tackled, the writers have done us so proud. Which three people are in these beds? That is gonna play out for the audience.

Meanwhile, Jimmy actor Nick also had his say ahead of his dramatic stunt with the truck being seen by viewers next week.

He said: "It's gonna be thrilling, it will look different as they're gonna have some flashforwards. It's a different structure to the episodes. Lots of drama and lots of action. From what I've seen it's gonna be good."

We’ll bring you more about the big stunt when we have further information.
