Emmerdale is gearing up to set TVs ablaze with a massive new stunt, teases show boss Sophie Roper.
The ITV soap is getting ready to trump their previous jaw-dropping events like the epic Hotten Bypass crash or last year’s nail-biting cliffside tumble featuring Chloe Harris. Chatting with The Mirror and other press, Roper spilled the beans: “We’ve got a lot of stunts coming up – some we’re actually filming this week.”
She cranked up the hype, dropping clues about the upcoming chaos: “What I can tell you is there will be fire engines involved. So take from that what you will. It’s going to be a really explosive week of Emmerdale.”
But it’s not just flames causing a stir in the Dales; fans are on tenterhooks as beloved Belle Dingle squares up to the vile Tom King, who’s been dishing out a chilling dose of abuse and mind games to his missus. Will Belle manage to slip from his grasp?

Dishing the dirt on the gripping plot, she said: “Belle and Tom is obviously a huge storyline for us at the moment and incredibly important but difficult storylines to watch at the moment. It’s resonating with our audience because, of course, it’s such a huge, real issue. We’re continuing with that story, trying to be really truthful to those kinds of relationships.”
“We’ve got a special episode coming up that sees Tom and Belle head off to Wales on a trip away together. Actually we recreated Wales in Yorkshire. Our fantastic design team used a cottage in the village that we redressed and made this beautiful Welsh retreat. The story, set to the backdrop of this beautiful cottage, is going to be really hard-hitting.”

She further hinted at what viewers can expect from the distressing scenes: “Tom is very much isolating Belle from her family, from her surroundings, from everything that she knows and loves, which is unfortunately a typical trait of abusers. It will be difficult drama at moments, but a really important message and a really important story to continue to tell.”
Could this stunt be linked to Tom and Belle – or could someone else be facing a dramatic time in Emmerdale in the upcoming months?
