Emmerdale fans 'rumble 50th birthday twists' with prison escape and Dingle death

Emmerdale could have some huge and tragic moments ahead on the ITV soap, if these fan theories are anything to go by.

Soap viewers sometimes think up some pretty out there guesses of what might happen, but they're also often right where twists are concerned.

So the latest predictions for the big soap episodes, to air in October, could see huge and shocking moments on the show.

Little has been revealed about what the soap will cover for its 50th birthday, while big storylines are set to tie together - and if past October weeks are anything to go by, there's bound to be a stunt or two.

Death has often hit the Dales in huge weeks too, as well as secrets exploding and returns - while as we said, nothing has been confirmed.

That said, viewers think they have worked out some of the plots that will take centre stage in five months time.

Many are predicting a Dingle death, with three of the Dingles said to be at risk according to theories.

There's also tipped to be some big returns, with a prison escape predicted and also the comeback of Jamie Tate.

Earlier this year, soap producer Laura Shaw did tease some things about the 50th, including a birth, involving a yet to be revealed pregnancy, as well as things that would have ongoing ramifications taking the soap into next year.

It has been teased that characters, not yet identified, could return for the special anniversary - while viewers think the cast have almost confirmed Jamie Tate's comeback for this time.

Viewers will just have to wait until closer to the time to find out what does happen, but the theories are already rolling in - and if true, it's bound to be a horrifying time for some.

Following Faith Dingle's cancer diagnosis, some fans believe her death will take place during these episodes.

But she isn't the only Dingle who could be killed off, fans believe, as they have tipped Belle Dingle to die after getting caught between brother Cain and Al Chapman's feud.

Others have questioned if, after deadly scenes last week, Cain could lose his life - if the soap is "brave" enough.

Viewers are also convinced Jamie will return during this time after Kim finally finds out her son is alive, after he faked his death last September.

It's been teased he could be back for some time, and after his return didn't actually happen last week viewers believe he will be in the village by the end of the year.

He isn't the only character return predicted though, as many viewers are convinced serial killer Meena Jutla will be back for a bloody revenge.

Lats month, viewers saw the killer finally face justice as she was sentenced to at least 75 years in prison.

While it seems this is it for the character, many fans are sure she will be back in October for a final showdown with residents.
