Emmerdale boss teases drama after 50th: 'You think it can't get worse...'
Jane Hudson spoke about the aftermath of the 50th anniversary.
All eyes will be on Emmerdale in the coming weeks as the ITV soap celebrates its 50th anniversary - but according to executive producer Jane Hudson, the excitement doesn't stop there.
Speaking to press including RadioTimes.com to launch the stunt-filled week, Hudson hinted that the high-stakes action will continue right up until the end of the month - and will have game-changing consequences when it does land on screens.
Teasing what's to come from the celebratory episodes, Hudson said: "It's a rollercoaster of emotions and it has a visual impact that will blow more than your socks off, put it that way. There's death, there's destruction, but there's also real moments of intimacy, heartbreak and love.
"And we're gonna see our characters tested in not just their physical strength, but their emotional strength as well. And there's gonna be a lot of tears, so I'm warning you about that."

She continued: "The month already started with Aaron's return, we've got the Faith storyline coming up which is going to be incredibly sad, and then we go into our storm which has got more than one stunt across the week.
"And then, just when you think things can't get any worse for our Emmerdale characters, they really, really do. We end the month on a really big bang that propels us well into the new year."
While our lips are sealed about what happens in the 50th anniversary week, trust us - it's huge! And that's why we're extra excited to see what happens at the end of the month.
