With soap villain Al Chapman being killed in scenes aired tonight, Michael Wildman, who played the snake, thinks his mum will be the only viewer in tears.
Michael, 47, who joined Emmerdale three years ago, previously revealed his mother Kate, a massive fan of the show, was more impressed about this role than anything else he has done.
This includes featuring in Steven Spielberg film Ready Player One, and playing Magorian in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
