  • Emmerdale fans livid over Christmas Day episode shake-up: ‘Total disgrace!’

    Emmerdale fans livid over Christmas Day episode shake-up: ‘Total disgrace!’

    ITV has revealed its Christmas Day schedule and Emmerdale fans are furious over the show airing that day.

    Christmas is traditionally a big time for the soaps, with viewers looking forward to storylines that have been building up over the year. And with show boss Iain MacLeod recently promising the “most exciting” Christmas in Emmerdale history, the stakes are pretty high.

    So when it was revealed this week that the soap will only air for half an hour on Christmas Day, it left a bad taste in many fans’ throats.

    Emmerdale to air on Christmas Day

    It has been confirmed that Emmerdale will air every night across the Christmas week on ITV. On Monday December 23 it will be on in it’s usual 7.30pm slot for half an hour. On Christmas Eve, it moves back to 7pm, but still for half an hour.

    Then on Christmas Day Emmerdale will air at 6.30pm. This is an hour earlier than it usually shows. And it will only be on for half an hour.

    Boxing Day we will get a full hour-length episode starting at 6.30pm and then on Friday December 27 it’s back to 30 minutes at 7.30pm.

    Although this sticks to the soap’s usual amount of episodes, many fans have been left annoyed that there’s only a half an hour episode on Christmas Day.

    Fans react

    “Emmerdale only on for 30 mins whilst Corrie gets a full one-hour slot,” said one. Someone replied to them: “Not fair.”

    Another added: “Especially when it’s a Kim Tate Christmas. At least there’s an hour installment on Boxing Day.”

    “No hour-long Emmerdale on Christmas Day again. Total disgrace,” raged one more.

    Emmerdale confirms a Kim Christmas

    Show boss Iain MacLeod told Digital Spy back in September: “This Christmas, there is a huge surprise arrival on Christmas Day. As well as some life or death jeopardy on Christmas Day – but obviously there will be festive brilliance as we do every year – but I think it is one of the most exciting Christmases that I can remember on Emmerdale this year!”

    He continued to promise “incredibly heartbreaking family drama with plenty of Dingle action. There is also some classic gothic antics at Home Farm – some skullduggery!”

    We’ve also been assured Belle will be in a much better place by Christmas. Phew!

    And new spoilers have now revealed Kim Tate will be at the centre of Christmas 2024. Will is plotting against his wife after they recently reconciled. He’s in cahoots with her business advisor Peter and a mystery person to bring Kim down. And it’s all set to take off at Christmas.

    Will asks her to renew their vows on Christmas Day and Kim is overjoyed. As she puts extra effort into making the festive season one to remember, does she know Will is plotting against her? Or will she be left heartbroken when she finds out?

    For his part, Will is at least starting to feel a wave of guilt. But is it enough to make him stop the takedown altogether?

  • Is Brenda and Eric’s wedding off? Here’s everything we know about their fate following cryptocurrency scam

    Is Brenda and Eric’s wedding off? Here’s everything we know about their fate following cryptocurrency scam

    Eric Pollard has lost everything in Emmerdale – all his money, all of Brenda Walker‘s money, and now it looks like he’s about to lose Brenda, too.

    But is it really over for the cute couple? Is their Christmas wedding definitely off?

    It’s definitely not looking good. Here’s everything we know.

    Brenda and Eric’s wedding is on in Emmerdale

    Eric was baffled when the increase in his investment wasn’t showing on his cryptocurrency account. He tried to speak to his finance advisor about it but got cut off – and that’s when Eric started to worry.

    Elsewhere, Brenda had found the perfect wedding dress, but when she went to pay her card was declined. Eric told her it was a technical problem at the bank and fibbed that he’d spoken to someone about it.

    But of course he was lying – he’d invested everything he had, and everything Brenda had, too, in the cryptocurrency scam.

    In desperation he turned to the racing pages of the newspaper, hoping to win back the money he’d lost, when he was interrupted by Liam who clocked him taking cash from the till.

    Worried Liam warned him that a rare side effect of his new medication was that it could make him act recklessly.

    Backed into a corner, Eric confessed that he’d lost the cash, and had secured a loan on his house. Liam begged him to come off the medication, but Pollard insisted he was going to the bookies and threatened to call the police!

    The wedding’s off!

    Back home, Eric returned triumphant with Brenda’s wedding dress all bought and paid for. But it turned out Liam had spoken to Brenda and explained what her husband was up to. And she’d had a chat with the bank and found out the truth about what had happened to her savings.

    A clearly devastated Brenda asked her fiancé what he was thinking, blowing her life savings. Eric tried to get round her by showing her his winnings because his horse had come in. But Brenda wasn’t listening. She told Eric his betrayal was so deep, she couldn’t get over it!

    The wedding’s off but the couple are on!

    Except she did! By today’s episode, Brenda was telling Eric that they were in it together. Though Eric was still convinced his money troubles were all just a big misunderstanding.

    But later, a shocked and upset Eric told Brenda and Jacob that the number for his account manager was no longer in service and finally accepted he’d been scammed. And Brenda revealed that she’d already called the police who’d said there was nothing they could do.

    Brenda had a chat with Liam, who told her he was convinced it was all a side effect of Pollard’s medication. But it’s too late now. “He’s ruined us,” she said. “Financially we’re sunk.”

    But Liam assured her what Eric needed was her love and support. It looked bleak, though, when Brenda asked him what she needed.

    And when she saw Eric in the street, she pointed out that he owned the house and everything she’d worked for was gone. Jacob suggested to his horrified grandfather that the only way to pay back Brenda’s money was to sell the shop.

    So that’s exactly what he promised to do.

    Brenda and Eric are off!

    But Brenda had something else on her mind. She’d realised Eric was on his new meds when he proposed and she wanted to know if he meant it.

    He admitted that he’d never intended to marry again, devastating poor Brenda, who assumed all the lovely things he’d said when he proposed were lies.

    Later though, Eric told her he meant every word. He told her he didn’t mind if they got married or not, but said he didn’t know what he would do if Brenda ever left him.

    Brenda chats to Eric seriously?
    Will Brenda forgive Eric?

    Brenda and Eric are on in Emmerdale – or are they?!

    But then – hooray – Brenda assured him she wasn’t going anywhere.

    And this makes us nervous! Because it’s been reported that actress Lesley Dunlop, who plays Brenda, is leaving her role after 16 years as Ms Walker.

    So does this mean the wedding’s off or on? We’re really not sure now!

  • What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Smug Tom got a win and Pollard devastated Brenda multiple times

    What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Smug Tom got a win and Pollard devastated Brenda multiple times

    Emmerdale tonight saw Brenda Walker left distraught over and over again by Eric Pollard as he finally accepted he’d been scammed. And then she made a big decision about their future.

    Meanwhile, Tom was smug when he called Angelica and realised she was on his side. How will he use this to his advantage?

    Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight.

    Brenda stood by Pollard – despite him breaking her heart in Emmerdale tonight

    Brenda had decided they were in this together, but Eric was still kidding himself that he could sort it all out. He soon realised he couldn’t when he found out his advisor’s number was no longer in service. They have been scammed. And the police can’t do anything because Pollard invested the money of his own free will.

    Brenda was devastated, especially as Eric tried to placate her by saying at least they had a roof over their heads. But Brenda pointed out the deeds were in his name and everything she has worked all her life for was gone.

    Knowing he needs to make it right, Pollard decided his only resort was to sell the shop. But Brenda was more concerned with whether he only proposed because he was hyped up on his meds and Eric confessed that was very possible. She was once again distraught.

    But later she insisted she was not leaving and she would support him every step of the way through his Parkinson’s. Although as Brenda is actually leaving, we all know that isn’t going to happen!

    Tom won Angelica over in Emmerdale tonight

    Angelica was heading back to school and all was happy in the King household now Tom was out of their lives. But Angel insisted Tom was still family.

    Tom phoned home and discovered he was calling Angelica and not his uncle Jimmy. But he was also relieved to hear Angel was on his side as he reeled her in and told her they would keep speaking. Smug Tom was filled with glee when he realised he had someone else to manipulate.

    Also in Emmerdale tonight…

    Caleb took Anthony’s side

    Ross and Steph got flirty in the Hide, but then Anthony arrived. Steph decided to fight his corner with Ruby again after she learned Ruby was ignoring Anthony. Anthony then managed to manipulate Caleb into taking his side too.

    Steph and Caleb confronted Ruby (who was making her own Christmas wreath – not sure this is something Ruby would do), who was most hurt by her husband’s interference.

    Ross was under pressure – as Mack gloated

    Ross went to see Charity, but encountered Mack instead. He wanted to pick Moses up after school and take him for a burger. But it turns out Moses has a VERY active after school social calendar with a birthday party and then bowling and then a sleepover at a mate’s.

    Mack smugly told him he and Charity would be spoiling Moses this Christmas – but Ross still has no idea exactly how Mack got the money. Meanwhile, Mack splashed the cash on Charity’s Christmas presents wanting to spoil her rotten.

    Elsewhere, Ross was feeling the pressure when both April and Jade rounded on him in the pub. April wanted to know why he’d ignored her since he’d been home and Jade wanted answers over her missing money.

    Cut to Mack giving the cash to Amy for Chloe and Reuben. But he doesn’t want to see any pictures or know anything because it’s too hard being apart from his son. Probably should have remembered he had one, then shouldn’t he?

  • Ruby for alcoholism storyline? Fans express concern over her drinking: ‘It’s all she does’

    Ruby for alcoholism storyline? Fans express concern over her drinking: ‘It’s all she does’

    Emmerdale fans have noticed that Ruby Fox-Miligan seems to have a drink in her hand more often than not and have expressed concern for her wellbeing.

    It has been an action packed year for Ruby and her go to coping mechanism appears to be to reach for the bottle.

    Now fans are wondering if an alcoholism storyline is on the way for the fan favourite character.

    What’s been going on with Ruby in Emmerdale?

    Ruby arrived in the Dales in January and quickly made her presence known when she revealed her husband Caleb’s affair with Tracy to the whole village.

    Caleb and Ruby reunited, but it hasn’t been plain sailing and recently Ruby cheated on Caleb with his brother Cain.

    The past couple of months have also seen Ruby deal with being reunited with her estranged family. After Ruby’s mum Helen died, daughter Steph turned up, who hadn’t seen her parents in over 10 years. It was a tough reunion, though mother and daughter appear to be working through their issues.

    Ruby’s dad Anthony then arrived to a hostile reception from his daughter – who he hadn’t seen in 30 years.

    Anthony announced that he had prostate cancer, but Ruby is still apprehensive about getting to know him. An upcoming flashback episode will reveal what happened to Ruby during her teenage years – and might go some way to explaining why she feels the need to drink.

    Does Ruby have a drink problem?

    Fans have noticed that whenever Ruby is stressed – which is a lot – she reaches for the alcohol. And lately, she never seems to be without a glass of wine.

    Taking to X, one fan wrote: “Ruby drinks all day. Ruby gets out of bed and open a bottle of wine.” Another fan joked: “I want to live with Ruby. Wine on tap.”

    A third viewer said: “Jeez, does all Ruby do all day every day is drink and not do any hard graft?!” While another said at the start of a recent episode: “Hoorahhh Ruby has already opened a bottle.”

    Others believe a drink problem is on the cards for Ruby, with one viewer saying: “Is Ruby an alcoholic? She’s always drinking?” 

    Could they be right and will Emmerdale explore a drink problem for Ruby?

  • Emmerdale glimpse at Christmas in village leaves fans terrified

    Emmerdale glimpse at Christmas in village leaves fans terrified

    It’s that time of the year again. Soaps begin to tease their big winter storylines. But Emmerdale has given fans a glimpse at Christmas, and viewers are terrified.

    As the first previews of Christmas in the Dales have been released, Emmerdale also shared their own look at the festivities. But the eeriness left fans concerned.

    In a 40 second video posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), all the Emmerdale Christmas lights were on display. The caption simply read: “We love our Village at Christmas!”

    While it may have been an innocent post to get everyone in the Christmas spirits, many thought it was hinting at something ominous.

    The video showed an empty village, not one person in sight. And as the camera moved throughout, we got to see each building’s Christmas lights up close.

    But why did the village need to be empty? Why was there an eerie feeling? Well fans think they were hinting that all may seem peaceful, but that’s not the actual case.

    Fans react to Emmerdale Christmas video

    Taking to X, fans expressed how they were awaiting something sinister at the end.

    One wrote: “Genuinely thought this was going to turn into some kind of horror trailer.”

    Another predicted: “Sprinkled with murder, affairs, heartbreak and Christmas cheer.”

    “Looks great. But what is the surprise under the tree this year?” a third fan asked.

    A viewer wrote: “It looks amazing. But bring on more drama for Christmas!”

    Christmas in Emmerdale

    Let’s face it, Emmerdale loves to throw in some Christmas tragedies. The festive period seems to be the perfect time for secrets to come out or killers to strike. So it’s safe to assume this year will be no different.

    A sneak peek to December in Emmerdale was released as show boss Iain MacLeod told Digital Spy that 2024 will be one of the most “exciting” Christmases in Emmerdale history.

    He teased a “huge surprise arrival on Christmas Day”, as well as “some life or death jeopardy.”

    There will also be “heartbreaking family drama with plenty of Dingle action”, along with some “classic gothic antics at Home Farm.”

    Currently there are so many storylines bubbling away waiting to be popped open. Will Belle finally get the justice she deserves? Does the truth about Cain and Ruby come out? And just who is returning on Christmas Day – Joe? Pete? Robert? So many questions that need answering.

    So with that knowledge, it seems the Emmerdale teaser was trying to lure viewers into a false sense of security. But it looks like Christmas in the Dales is not to be missed!
