Emmerdale is set to air a powerful special episode of the soap aimed at tackling men’s mental health struggles.
During Friday evening’s episode of Emmerdale viewers will see some of the men from the village stay behind in The Woolpack for a lock-in. It is the first time the ITV soap has attempted an episode of such a nature.
It follows on from the focus on the mental health struggles of Paddy Dingle, played by Dominic Brunt, following the collapse of his marriage to Chas. As we’ve previously reported in the special, some Emmerdale favourites will speak openly about their struggles.
