Some of the stars of Emmerdale have undergone a glam makeover to mark the ITV soap's 50th anniversary. The whole month of October will be littered with drama to mark the special occasion but one week, starting on October 16, will focus on a devastating storm in the village that will affect the lives of every single villager.
Back in August the soap's boss teased their 'epic' plans for the big birthday. Jane Hudson told the Manchester Evening News and other press during a special event at the Yorkshire-based filming location that there official birthday episode will really kickstart events with Kim Tate and Will Taylor's wedding.
"Of course, it's not going to go smooth," Jane teased. "It's the week that's going to deliver the most epic of stunts," she added before handing over to Kate Brooks, Emmerdale's series producer, to share more. As part of our big 50th week, although we are doing a month of celebrations, the big 50th week will focus on a massive storm that is going to rip through the village and leave a massive trail of destruction in its wake.
