Elsewhere on the soap Marlon was hit with a heart breaking health battle as he suffered a stroke but after spending a few weeks in hospital he is now getting better.
Viewers can’t seem to get enough of the drama at the fictional village as they walked away with four awards of the Entertainment Daily Awards.
They won Best Soap, Best Soap Villain for Meena Jutla, Best Soap Double Act for Paddy and Marlon and Stand-Out Soap Moment for Faith’s death scenes.
Speaking about their big win Emmerdale star Mark Charnock said that he was thrilled to hear the ITV soap won multiple awards.
“It’s kind of thrilling to win the viewer votes," he told ED!. "You’re doing it for the viewers so it means so much more coming from them, that reaction. There’s no point lying, we’ve won so many awards this year and it’s thrilling.”
Mark continued: “I think we tell our stories really well. We’ve got a really good blend right across the age ranges and across the type of stories we tell.
“We had that massive storm storyline this year. I think for a long time now, we’ve got a really loyal viewership, it’s just wonderful.”
Mark also opened up abut his friendship with Dominic Brunt, who plays Paddy, after the pair won the Best Soap Double Act award.
He said: “The only thing I can say about working with him is that we laugh all the time. We’ve got this working relationship where we almost don’t have to say anything out loud to each other to know what the other person wants to do with a scene.

“So it’s become like there’s a language between us that is unspoken. I can see that he’s going to do something and I’ll try and react to it. It’s an amazing thing to have when you’ve worked with somebody that long. I treasure it actually.
“I won’t speak for him, but I treasure it, those kind of working relationships don’t come along very often and when it does it’s really special.”
