First look at Emmerdale's Woolpack makeover after being destroyed by huge fire

Emmerdale fans will be excited to take a look at The Woolpack’s makeover.

As Emmerdale viewers know, the iconic boozer went up in flames following a heartbreaking explosion, caused by Al Chapman, back in December.

As our colleagues at The Mirror report, cousins Marlon and Chas Dingle, who oversaw the pub with Al, couldn't afford the pub renovations or rising debts.

They had no choice but to put it up for auction. This saw family member Charity Dingle buy the Woolie with her son Ryan Stocks.

A photo has been released of what the pub now looks like inside. Charity Dingle star Emma Atkins has spoken about what has happened as part of the revamp.

Fans will be excited to see what the new famous pub looks like.

Emma said: "They have sort of gone for a full refurbishment.

"They have kept the shape and dynamic and style the same, but I have to say it looks incredible, it’s beautiful.

"Velvet upholstery with a vibrant design and it's so cosy. Quite autumnal in colour scheme, I think it will be fantastic."

Emmerdale fans will soon get to see the Woolie back in its rightful position as the focal point of the village.

As ever, we’ll bring you all the latest news and, of course, let you know about the pub’s grand reopening.
