Emmerdale viewers will soon see a huge brawl in the ITV soap - the first fight in the show since coronavirus restrictions were brought in.
Next week, our colleagues at The Mirror report, Nicola King and Mandy Dingle clash in a heated showdown - with cast members Nicola Wheeler and Lisa Riley actually filming the scenes with no social distancing, and while they had stunt doubles they confessed they did a lot of the work themselves.
It will be the ITV soap's first fight scene between characters where they can actually touch each other, and things aren't just implied through looks and clever camera angles. It is thought the scenes will be the first of their kind since the coronavirus pandemic struck.

In recent months, Emmerdale cast and crew have had to keep to a two-metre distance on set, while rules have been relaxed slightly in the last few months with some cast members forming bubbles for specific scenes and taking regular tests to ensure safety.
The Emmerdale stars formed a bubble to be able to do the scenes, and they really went for it.

Preview images show Nicola hitting Mandy before she retaliates - due to their ongoing feud over Nicola's husband Jimmy King.
Speaking about the scenes, actress Nicola likened it to ‘wrestle-mania’.
Nicola said: "What I love about the fight is it's very comedic, it's not done like a cat fight with scratching or punching, we start using all these childish props.
"They start whacking each other with these plastic things like batons, poor Rodney gets hit, and then it turns into a water fight!
"Rodney and the barista get it in full throttle. And then the cake becomes involved! What a coincidence there happens to be two cakes, so obviously a face in each cake.”
