Tag: Mackenzie Boyd

Finally got the memo? Have Emmerdale actually killed off Mack this time?

The latest episode of Emmerdale (Thursday, August 29), saw Mackenzie Boyd in a life-threatening situation â€“ yet again (surprise, surprise!)

Of all the ways to meet your maker, being chased by a bull is at least an exciting option. That’s if Mack is really dead…

The unpopular mechanic has faced numerous near death experiences since arriving in the village as Moira’s long lost brother back in 2020 (long lost relatives are the only kind of relatives in Soapland.)

So is the game really up for him this time, or is he actually a cat with nine lives?

What happened to Mack?

The latest episode of Emmerdale saw mechanic Mack head to the barn to fix a quad bike. In order to work on it safely, John and Nate said they’d move the bull to the field.

However, when Mack arrived, the bull was still in the barn area and started to chase Mack (oh no!) Mack then climbed a gate in order to escape the bull, but he fell and hit his head.

Nate rushed to help, with Mack insisting he was OK. But he was angry and claimed that John left the bull in the barn on purpose as revenge for taking his van.

Viewers will know that earlier this month, John’s van was stolen from the garage and later discovered in the lake.

Later tonight, Aaron confronted John. But in typical soap feud fashion, the two started kissing instead. Aaron’s never been able to resist a Sugden, has he?

Meanwhile, Charity told Mack that they needed to plan their revenge on John. However, Mack wasn’t taking in much of what she was saying and complained about feeling ill.

Mack then collapsed to the floor before being rushed to hospital. We reckon he should just live there at this point!

Why is Mack unpopular?

Following his affair with Chloe, fans have been calling to leave the Dales.

Mack treated both Chloe and Charity terribly, but appeared to come out of the situation well â€“ kidnapping aside.

“When is Emmerdale gonna get rid of the worst character ever, Mack?” asked one fan on X, while another commented while seeing the bull in an earlier episode: “Thereâ€™s the bull that we all wish would finish off Mack.”Â

“Mack just continues to grate,” added another viewer, while a fourth said: “Emmerdale for [bleep] sake just get rid of Mackâ€¦ He’s already had 4 major storylines where heâ€™s almost diedâ€¦ surely this has got to be it!”

“They need to kill off tedious Mack please,” demanded another fan. But have the fans finally got their wish?

Mack’s survived every time! (Credit: ITV)

Has Mack been killed off?

Mack was originally a likeable character. But more recently, viewers have turned against him â€“ and for good reason.

This is also not the first time he has come close to death. It’s as if death follows him wherever he goes!

In the last year alone, he has been stabbed by Charity and kidnapped and left beaten in a warehouse by Chloe’s father â€“ again, for good reason.

Prior to that, Mack survived when a car he was in with Chloe and Charity was suspended over a cliff edge.

To say the man has nine lives would be an understatement, but could this be the time when Mack is finally killed off? Let’s be honest… probably not, which many have agreed is a load of bull…

“Happy â€˜Mack almost gets killed by a bull but doesnâ€™t cos Emmerdale have made an awful character invincibleâ€™ week to all those that celebrate,” joked one fan on X.Â

Other agreed, saying they refused to get their hopes up as Mack ‘will probably live.’

It’s almost as if Emmerdale are teasing us, but given the numerous opportunities they’ve had to kill Mack off, why would this time be any different? Then again, there’s only so many near-death experiences one person can have before fate catches up with them, right? RIGHT?

It’s clear Nate is torn over what to do. On one hand he knows job opportunities like this don’t come around that often. But if he accepted the role it would mean moving hundreds of miles away from his loved ones. Including his estranged wife, Tracy, and their little girl, Frankie.

Emmerdale: Mack’s used up all of his nine lives – here’s why he MUST die in next week’s bull chase

Stunts and life-threatening events happen quite often in Soap Land and Emmerdale village is all too familiar with this.

One villager in particular – Mack Boyd – has had a fair few near-death experiences of his own (and some have been his own doing!)

With Mack being injured by a bull next week, here’s why we think Mack must be killed off!

Mack survived every time! (Credit: ITV)

Emmerdale: Mack – Superman or a super fool?

When he first entered the Dales, Mack was rather liked by fans as Moira’s cheeky brother, but this feeling was short-lived as he got himself involved with Chloe Harris.

There was a moment when it looked as though Charity and Mack were soulmates, but after Mack’s fling with Chloe and huge baby daddy bombshell… well, let’s just say, he’s never been redeemed since, despite Charity rekindling their romance.

Over the course of his time in the village, Mack’s found himself in quite an unfortunate number of near-death scenarios… but we’re struggling to feel sorry for him.

You see, Mack has a habit of putting himself in sticky situations that could very well cost him his life. He never seems to learn from his mistakes though…

Last year, Mack found himself in a car accident with Charity and Chloe which only occurred as a result of his cheating. He then acted as a hero and saved Charity from the wreckage whilst Chloe ended up falling off a cliff (and somehow surviving!)

Then there was the time after this when he was held hostage by Chloe’s dad, Harry… (again, totally avoidable if Mack had kept it in his pants!) He somehow managed to get away though despite being threatened with a gun!

And, let’s not forget the time Charity stabbed him in the middle of the night after mistaking him for Harry. An incident he survived yet again… Is this guy immortal or something?

That bull is out to get Mack (Credit: ITV)

After all of this… could a bull kill Boyd?

Mack loves to stare death right in the face, doesn’t he? It’s like he lives for the thrill.

Next week, after making an enemy out of John (his own doing, surprise, surprise!), Mack is chased by a bull, before being injured in the barn.

Believing that John is behind the incident, Mack soon collapses after feeling rather woozy. Charity then fears that Mack’s injuries are more serious than first thought!

There’s only so many times someone can have a near-death experience and survive… If Mack survives this one, then he really must be invincible because there’s no chance that somebody would make it through everything Mack has done in real life. NO CHANCE! But, would killing Mack off be such a bad thing?

Mack’s rather insufferable (Credit: ITV)

Emmerdale: Has Mack had his day?

Mack and Charity don’t have chemistry (there’s no shying away from this one!) They’ve never been able to restore the bond they had pre-Chloe, and it’s becoming quite hard to watch the pair together.

The problem is, Mack hasn’t been redeemed for his cheating and lies (and it’s unlikely that he ever will or CAN be!) Fans have branded Mack as ‘insufferable’ for his constant narcissistic and childish behaviour (grow up mate, driving John’s van into the lake was a bit immature…) And, can we really blame them? How many more times can Mack escape death?

There would be something quite satisfying if after everything he’s been through, a bull is the thing that brings him down!

Emmerdale spoilers: John and Aaron give into passion again

In next week’s Emmerdale spoilers, Aaron and John’s affair is back on. The lusty pair give into their desires and enjoy a roll around in the hay.

But will it be another one-off, or is this the start of something more?

Aaron still wants John in Emmerdale spoilers

It’s not just Aaron’s bromance with Mack that’s got the fans talking. They’re also intrigued by his latest love interest, John Sugden.

The pair first met in a layby, where John was stranded after his campervan had broken down. He recognised Aaron from a dating app and things quickly got intimate. Their roadside romp had echoes of Aaron’s iconic romance with former husband Robert, which too, began with a kiss on a country lane.

Afterwards, Aaron was up for round two, but John didn’t want to know. He drove off, with Aaron’s keys and wallet still inside his van. Aaron never expected to see his conquest again, but fate had other ideas.

That same day, John turned up in the village. But Aaron’s surprise at seeing him again was nothing compared to the horror when he discovered John was a Sugden, and the half-brother of his ex-husband, Robert.

Aaron’s head is in a spin, and he doesn’t quite know whether he likes or loathes the mysterious newcomer.

But when he spies John in the cafÃ© with a potential date, it’s clear he’s jealous.

John’s playing mind games with Aaron

Since John showed up in Emmerdale it’s been him against Aaron and Mack.

The feud ignited after Aaron and Mack dumped John’s van in a lake, which left him homeless. John got his own back on Aaron by toying with his affections. He went in for a kiss, then took great pleasure in rejecting Aaron.

But the mischievous rivalry seems to have taken a chilling turn after Mack accused John of trying to have him killed. Mack was attacked by a bull at Butlers Farm and accused John of deliberately setting the animal on him.

Aaron and John get it on, again!

With Mack in a bad way after the bull attack, Aaron decides to have it out with John.

He storms over to Butlers and demands to know what his game is. But as their exchange gets more heated, neither are able to ignore the sexual tension.

Soon passion takes over and Aaron and John end up sleeping together. But will Aaron regret getting jiggy with John when he discovers Mack’s condition has turned critical? And what’s next for the lovers? After everything, might Aaron end up with his soulmate’s sibling?

Emmerdale spoilers: Mack left gravely injured after he’s attacked by a bull

In Emmerdale spoilers for next week, Mack’s life is on the line after he’s attacked by a raging bull.

Mack blames John for the animal turning on him. But before he can exact his revenge, he suffers a shock collapse. Will his injuries prove to be fatal?

Danger for Mack in Emmerdale spoilers

An ordinary day takes a terrifying turn for Mack when he finds himself face-to-face with a bull. The mechanic is working in one of the barns at Butlers when he’s suddenly cornered by the animal. The bull isn’t meant to be in the barn, but how did it get there?

With his exit blocked there’s no safe way out and Mack is scared. Bulls are one of the most dangerous types of livestock and Mack knows they need to be handled with caution. Just check out the horns on it!

Taking a moment to psyche himself up, Mack decides he’ll try and make a break for it. His plan is to dodge the bull and make it to the barn gate before it catches up with him.

But can he honestly outrun a creature who possesses such speed and strength?

Mack is attacked by the bull

Mack tries to leg it past the bull, but he can’t get away quick enough as the animal chases after him.

Moments later, Nate arrives on the scene and is shocked to find the bull standing in the barn. That’s when he hears a groan from Mack, who’s lying wounded after being attacked.

As Nate tends to his friend, Mack is clearly in a lot of pain. He’s also angry, and convinced John deliberately put the bull in the barn as an act of revenge.

There’s no love lost between Mack and the new farmhand. John was livid after Mack deliberately sunk his beloved campervan in the lake and warned there would be repercussions. But setting Mack up to be gored by a bull seems a tad extreme, doesn’t it?

Mack’s health takes a scary turn

As Mack returns home to recover from his terrifying ordeal, Charity is on hand to nurse him.

She’s also convinced John tried to have Mack killed and tells her hubby they must retaliate. But while Charity tries to motivate Mack to take action, he starts to feel very unwell.

Charity suddenly realises Mack has gone quiet on her. She watches as he goes all woozy before collapsing on the sofa in a lifeless heap.

Will Mack die as a result of his injuries? And does this make John a murderer?

Emmerdale tonight: John made an enemy of Mack, Bear discovered Mandy’s secret and Nicola and Jimmy received bad news

Emmerdale tonight saw John and Mack come to blows once again. However, it looks like John is sticking around in the village as Cain offered him a job at the farm.

Elsewhere, Bear discovered Mandy’s findomination work after he overheard her call with a client. Also, there was more bad news for Nicola and Jimmy.

Hereâ€™s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Tuesday August 13.

John doesn’t seem to want to make friends (Credit: ITV)

John continued to make enemies

In Emmerdale tonight, John continued to make enemies in the village. He headed to the garage to confront Cain about his van and quiz him about what happened.Â Having threatened to call the police, Cain was not impressed with John.

Mackenzie then attempted to apologise to John, but the pair did not settle their differences. Later, Mackenzie found John in the barn and attempted to hit him, as he thought he was stealing. However, John quickly defended himself.

Cain arrived and told Mackenzie that he’s offered John a job at the farm whilst he’s staying in the village. Mackenzie was not impressed, especially after Cain told him he would have to pay for the repairs to John’s van.

One person that was pleased to hear John is sticking around was Victoria. She was happy to know she’ll have more time to get know her half-brother. John was less enthused and insisted he will not be staying in the Dales for long. He later appeared unnerved when Victoria quizzed him about an army dog tag she’d found at home.

Bear discovered Mandy’s findom work

Mandy was super excited about her hen do, but she had other things to do before she could begin partying. She reluctantly agreed to fit Bear in at the salon for a trim, despite being inundated with findom work.

Amelia offered to take the appointment instead of Mandy and she quickly agreed. Unaware her laptop was still connected to the karaoke speaker, Bear heard the majority of Mandy’s findom call. He was left stunned by what he heard and struggled to compose himself in front of Mandy.

Later on, Bear began looking into financial domination. He found himself in a super awkward situation as he began discussing findom with Marlon. Bear was left torn over whether to tell Paddy about Mandy’s findom work or not. It’s not exactly the most comfortable of conversations to have with your son, is it?

Nicola and Jimmy received bad news (Credit: ITV)

Also in Emmerdale tonight…

Elsewhere, Jimmy and Nicola began preparing for Angel’s visit. However, Nicola received bad news just hours before the scheduled day visit.Â She was informed that Angel had been involved in a fight and would not be visiting.

Meanwhile, Sam continued to struggle following all of the recent drama with Samson. He and Lydia made amends after recent disagreements. Sam confided in Lydia about missing Samson and how he is worried about him.

John Sugden: Another bad boy with a secret leaves viewers cold: ‘Why couldn’t he just be normal?’

We’ve established two things about John Sugden since his arrival in Emmerdale: he’s moody and he doesn’t like other people. Is that really what the village needed, though?

Recently we’ve lost several ‘nice’ men. Ethan Anderson, good guy lawyer, who sometimes made mistakes, Nicky Miligan: family troubles forced him into doing bad things, but on the whole, a good guy and Suni Sharma – happy-go-lucky good guy.

So why has Emmerdale replaced them with another brooding bad lad? We already have Aaron filling that role – and clearly this village ain’t big enough for the both of them!

Newcomer John is a secret Sugden (Credit: ITV)

John Sugden arrives in Emmerdale

Let’s take a look at everything John’s done since he arrived in the Dales…

Aaron got jiggy, then got robbed! (Credit: ITV)

1. ‘Robbed’ Aaron

Okay, so he didn’t officially rob him, but he slept with him in his van on the side of the road, then drove off with all his stuff – keys, wallet and don’t forget that beloved hoodie. Aaron’s crime? Meeting someone on a dating app, being taken in by his torso, not finding out his name and sleeping with him within seconds of meeting. Didn’t really deserve to be robbed, did he?

2. Been stroppy with Victoria and Sarah

You know, Victoria Sugden can be a tad annoying. She’s nice and all, but we can totally see how her OTT reaction to finding out she had a secret half-brother was somewhat unnerving. She’s a bit like an excited puppy – clearly John does not like puppies either. But he could have given her something. And his adopted niece Sarah, he was awful to her. A smile or a thank you every now and then wouldn’t go a miss.

John made it clear he wasn’t a man to be messed with (Credit: ITV)

3. Attacked Aaron and Mack

Aaron was quite annoyed to have had his stuff taken and when he found out John was a secret Sugden, he thought the whole thing had been a set-up. Determined to get to the truth, Aaron confronted him with the only tactics he knows how: his fists. But ex-army man John got the upper hand. And, when they had another aggressive confrontation, John won again. He even got the better of Mack. And then threatened them both when they plunged his van into a lake. And we don’t think Aaron and Mack have any idea just how much he’s capable of yet…

4. John doesn’t like cake

What sort of person does not like cake?! Well, John Sugden apparently, who told Nicola in no uncertain terms he doesn’t like cake and he doesn’t need smiles or friendliness from the locals. Can you trust anyone who doesn’t like cake?! We’re not so sure…

Aaron was outsmarted, but do we need another broody bad boy? (Credit: ITV)

Emmerdale fans not here for villain John Sugden

It’s fair to say making friends is not John’s strong point. But then that runs in the family given both dad Jack and half-brother Robert were also sullen so and sos. But fans aren’t loving there being yet another miserable and brooding man in town.

“Please not another wannabe villain. I can’t cope with all the bad people in the storylines it’s getting absolutely way out of hand!!!” sighed one on social media.

A second raged: “Can we have new characters that don’t have any issues or hidden agendas etc please. Love the lighthearted storylines it gives us all an escape from this tough world!! Emmerdale tell your writers to change tactics please and have more giggles and happy people!! So much nicer to watch rather than having to record and fast forward most of an episode!!”

“Why couldn’t John come in and just be normal instead of most of the new characters coming in with issues,” added one more.

A fourth wrote: “Great….another angry young man, angrier than angry Aaron in the village, ugh.”

“The writers are getting ridiculous with all these angry men storylines. They brought Aaron back angry at the world and now instead of John meeting Victoria at the funeral and finding out they are related and have them get aquatinted they bring him back angry with a bad attitude,” said a fifth.

Aaron and Mack ‘the new Paddy and Marlon’ fans insist as they go wild over ‘chemistry’

Emmerdale newcomer John Sugden has not made many (ahem, any) friends since arriving in town, but he’s certainly made enemies – including Aaron Dingle and Mack Boyd.

Last night Aaron and Mack decided to take their revenge on John who’s been particularly unpleasant to them since sleeping with Aaron and driving off with his stuff.Â So they stole his van, left the handbrake off and let it roll into a lake.

They found their prank hilarious and fans did too. In fact they are loving Aaron and Mack scenes and want more of them.

Aaron and Mack team up in Emmerdale

John has made it perfectly clear he wants to leave Emmerdale as soon as he can – as soon as his van’s fixed, that is. Last week he had several threatening incidents with Aaron where John got the upper hand and punched him.

So Aaron and Mack decided to teach John a lesson. John soon found his van missing and immediately knew who had taken it. Of course, he was right when he confronted Aaron and Mack and they took him to where they had left it.

Unfortunately, Mack had left the handbrake off accidentally and it had rolled into the lake. The boys found this hilarious and taunted John, who was even angrier and even more miserable and tried to get violent again.

Aaron was still laughing about it later when John cornered him in the pub. As John got Aaron all hot under the collar, he moved in for a kiss, only for John to pull away and laugh at him.

Looks like this feud has a long way to go yet.

Fans love Aaron and Mack

However aside from John Sugden, viewers are here for this Aaron and Mack pairing. When Mack first arrived it was clear the men had chemistry, but show bosses decided to take Mack in the direction of Charity instead. Aaron then left.

But now they’re back as partners in crime and their bromance is just what we need.

“We need more of the bromance and the banter from these two!!! Too much doom and gloom this is a welcome addition,” shared one fan on social media.

Another added: “Absolutely love Aaron and Mackenzie’s friendship.”

“At last a pairing that we are going to absolutely love. The devilment between these two is fab,” enthused a third.

A fourth said: “They are such a good shout. Funny, good actors, great chemistry. More buddies scenes needed.”

“Those two are hilarious. Mack and Aaron are great, the new Paddy and Marlon,” agreed a fifth.

The new Paddy and Marlon? Would we go that far? Well, we certainly hope these scenes keep coming as the light relief is a welcome change from all the plotting and murders and illnesses in Emmerdale.
