Emmerdale bosses have confirmed huge stunts and flashforward scenes will air during a special week. The special episodes will lead up to Emmerdale's 50th anniversary later in the year.
Viewers of the ITV soap will be left wondering what the future holds for some key characters, but as the week unfolds all will become clear.
As the week commences, in the gloom we see a misty graveyard with an open grave. The slamming of an iron police cell door and the sound of a gunshot rings out in the woods before we see a crumpled car steaming in the gloom having just had a terrible accident… But whose bodies are in the wreck and what does it all mean?

The war between Cain Dingle, played by Jeff Hordley, and adversary Al Chapman, played by Michael Wildman, seems to show no signs of abating, but could this special week be the culmination of their mutual loathing?
Elsewhere, Noah (Jack Downham) has escalated his obsession with Chloe (Jessie Elland). Noah is tracking her phone and is currently enjoying spying on oblivious Chloe with his high tech drone. How will Chloe and her loyal friends react when Noah’s behaviour is exposed? Could Noah’s behaviour be the catalyst to spiral this week into a disaster?
While Gabby (Rosie Bentham) is home alone up at Home Farm and worried Jamie Tate is back from the ‘dead’ and looming large. When things start going bump in the night for Gabby could she find herself in a perilous situation?
Emmerdale producer, Laura Shaw, has already teased that deadly stunts will air during the huge flashforward week. Speaking to The Mirror and other press, she teased: "As well as all the exciting drama the week is going to feature stunts and action too.
"We've filmed a fairly big stunt which has been really exciting to plan and build. I don't think we've done anything like it before - not in the 20 years that I've been at Emmerdale anyway - and we've had a lot of conversations and scratchings of heads as to how we could achieve it."
