Oh, I know you're right, and I'm sure I'll watch and giggle along. I'm just being grumpy.

Monday: Angry at being rejected by her for the 50th time that month, Rishi finally has an epiphany and realises he's better off without that snooty cow (and coincidentally is better off away from the village). Realising an easy way to dispose of her, he drags her by the wig into the factory, announcing venomously that as the mother of Jai, she is responsible for inflicting the nasty pillock on the villagers. They proceed to force her to choke on some Sharma gobstoppers. Before the 'workers' can use their collective brain cell to realise Rishi is responsible for Jai's existence too, he has fled the village forever (to star in a new range of M&M adverts).

Tuesday: Shock! As Charity Dingle escapes from prison to wreak revenge on those who have wronged her. After becoming an avid reader of poetry whilst in prison, Charity does a "Porphyria's Lover" and strangles Lisa with her own hair, much to the applause of her family. Whilst the Dingles celebrate by cracking open the moonshine and taking their earplugs out, Charity decides to take inspiration from Game of Thrones and poison's Rachel's Home-Farm-pigeon pie. 'Sadly', Sammy had already taken a bite and he dies painfully on the floor of the Dingle's hovel too...

Wednesday: ...but Charity's reign is not yet over. She turns up at the factory, where she finds Jai trying to work out how to act "grief". Before he can open his mouth, Charity clobbers him with a book called "Acting for Dummies" that she found lying nearby. For the remaining 29 minutes of the episode, she proceeds to beat him senseless and fulfill all of our fantasies. This episode contains no advert breaks to maximise viewer pleasure, and the usual ending theme is replaced by Kool & The Gang's "Celebrate", with disco themed graphics.

Thursday: In a two-parter expected to overjoy viewers across the world, Ashley decides to hold some public lynchings to bring the community together. He finally decides to get revenge on "power couple" Maurel for ruining his life. In part one we see a completely wasted Laurel stagger up to the noose under the impression that there is a bottle of vodka awaiting her there. Full spoilers are yet to be revealed for the rest of Thursday's episode but we are promised that it will be brutal, graphic and thoroughly enjoyable. The same fate awaits Marlon in the second episode, as he prepares to join the 256 'loves of his life' in hell.

Friday: Now this week wouldn't be complete without the slaying of everybody's most-hated cafe worked Brenda "Wendy" Hope. Producers are being very cagey about how Brenda will meet her end, but we have been promised that at least some of it will take place on a giant pyre in the centre of the village. Rumour has it that online viewers will be able to vote for which other methods will be used to dispose of the villager witch. Apparently there will be no limit - any method which receives any number of votes will be used! Options are expected to include a medley of the methods used over the last 4 episodes, alongside old favourites like Brenda being fed through Moira Barton's meat grinder. Viewers will also be able to give producers their own suggestions for this climactic event.


You may be wondering where the wooden plank that is James Barton is in all of this...
Spoiler
He drowns in the river on Monday after Noaarggh and Jaycub mistake him for a canoe. Nobody notices, and when he eventually washes up on the Friday everybody just shrugs and chucks him onto Brenda's pyre for extra firewood.
”

Someone give this person a storylining job. The BIBs are pure genius.

If they're going to go all Wicker Man in the village, I'd definitely watch.

According to Soap Squak the big summer story that has been talked about will involved several major characters getting killed off in an attempt to boost ratings. I really hope this is not true. The show already had one major character die earlier this year so I think another death (let alone several) would be over kill.

Very surprised. Thought only Hollyoaks did this kind of thing.

The Metcalfe's, Kerry, Finn, Ross and Chrissie are the one's I would be really upset over.

Jai has to go. I'm sick of his philandering ways and constant bad attitude and I've always disliked Rachel. Those two and Marlon are at the top of my list.

I have a feeling that the big disaster (if it happens) is going to be about Ross & Debbie's "jobs" so no doubt the tragedy's will be for the Dingle's and for the Barton's and possibly the White's if it involves Chrissie as well.

I think just as usual it will be one big character death and then a lot of background characters though, it would do no good to kill off extremely popular characters.

I think Emmerdale's proved it can do great storylines without resorting to a bloodbath - although the stunts they do do often surpass the other soaps. I notice with Emmerdale the ramifications of these stunts actually do shape future storylines (so many others say 'it'll change the residents lives FOREVER' but are then forgotten about shortly after). For example the siege a couple of years ago is still mentioned now - Brenda still mourns for Gennie to this day, Chas and Debbie still talk about Cameron and are wary of the new men in their lives and Alicia is still haunted by what happened to her. As long as any big stunts they do complement the show as a whole and aren't just there for the sake of it I look forward to watching it.

I didn't realize there was already a thread on this before I started a new one. But anyway I think a cast blood bath is a really bad idea.They had a serial killer in 2013, Donna was killed in 2014 and Katie was killed this year. That is way too many deaths already. Also Days of Our Lives tried something similar about a decade ago where they had the shows's main character Marlena in some sort of possessed state kill off a dozen characters, the story line proved unpopular and failed to raise ratings so they rewrote story to undo all the deaths. I could see this story being equally unpopular and since Emmerdale is reality based they won't have the luxury of being able undo this story.

Don't worry, it's only speculation and misinterpretation with a bit of fantasy thrown in, not only here but in the original article copied by the 'source' linked to in the OP. There are no spoilers. Nothing official has been published or even finalised yet.

Well I hope you're right. I really like what Kate Oates has done with the show so far and I'd like to think she'd have more sense than to do a story like this.

Well that's debatable but some of the sort of things people are imagining here couldn't be shown in the UK before 9pm. so she may remember that and also the backlash she got over the Alicia/Lachlan rape scene.

I like all the Barton's except for James and Emma so hopefully they're the casualties.

I reckon Darren, Emma and Rachel will die. I wouldn't mind Carly going, but it seems unlikely. I'll be very angry if Finn, Victoria, Leyla, Alicia, David, Chrissie, Ross, Pete or Brenda dies.

Right, I was thinking maybe they would have a tornado hit the village and several people would be killed in it.

Not sure they have tornadoes in Yorkshire, very strong wind maybe.
I don't know though, they might have a mini one/

I looked it up and it seems likes its rare as I could only find one article where it said one was spotted there so it is possible. If they are going the disaster route I think it could be good because none of the other soaps have done a tornado right?

Emmerdale came close when a storm blew a bit off the Woolie (I think it was the chimney?) hitting Tricia, who never recovered,

I like Pete but I can take or leave the character. I don't want him to die but if he did my reaction would be 'Oh no. Shame. Right what's for tea?'

I'm not gunning for Pete - he's one of my favourites

I am not. I like him. I think he is a decent character and far worse than him on the show.

Indeed.

Scumbag Cain has moved on from committing crimes, beating up old men and killing animals and shagging his equally obnoxious cousin, to knitting and baking cupcakes for Moira. When he isn't punching his brother or Dull Dan, that is.

There's nothing wrong with men knitting and baking cupcakes.

Most, if not all, the bakeries here were started by men, who still work in them. One has won lots of awards.

Disappointed if Robert is a favourite to go. Ryan Hawley has been fantastic on Emmerdale and is one of the strongest actors the show has right now. I know Robert is a killer, so I suppose he is on a limited time. I think Kate made a mistake making Robert a killer, considering what a fantastic actor Ryan is.

Laughing at those odds though. Chas, Debbie and Robert, most likely to be killed off than Marlon.
