Product Information

From family feuds, fires and fights to more light hearted moments from life on the farm and in the village that goes by the name of - Emmerdale. When Aaron left the village, he'd lost all faith in Liv as she stood accused of murdering his boyfriend Ben Tucker.

Emmerdale fans are going to be treated to a special one-off documentary celebrating the legendary soap’s glorious 50 years. Jane Hudson added: "Kim will overhear Harriet declare undying love for Will, so obviously that will inspire a lot of fireworks. We are making sure that when our celebration month ends, it's really just the beginning of a whole new chapter, particularly for one of our families. The fallout continues in upcoming episodes, as Sandra's sidekick Terry breaks into Mill Cottage and tries to force Liv to retract her statement to the police. Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you.

Hudson explained: "Aaron's back and how is he going to respond when he finds out that his mum is cheating on Paddy, who he sees as a father? This will include a special hour-long episode on Sunday, October 16 - marking the first day Emmerdale aired back in 1972.

As fans know, Emmerdale will be celebrating its major milestone with a host of big storylines throughout October. Elizabeth Estensen recently added: "I was really pleased to be asked to come back to Emmerdale to celebrate its 50th. Soap anniversary events are usually a week-long affair, so after months of speculation and anticipation, it can sometimes feel like the big episodes are over and done with in a flash.

Diane, who has links to several of the villagers, is expected to provide some much-needed moral support to her loved ones amid the chaos of the big episodes. Tom Parfitt's current role as archivist has positioned him at the nexus of Emmerdale's past and present; providing insight into its history, and guidance for its ever-expanding future. Asked recently about inevitable comparisons to other storms from Emmerdale's past, Hudson replied: "It's fair to say that every story has been done in soaps and we always come at it from a place where we think: 'How do we make it feel like this story has never been done? Emmerdale will celebrate its 50th birthday with an hour long episode on Sun 16th October, exactly 50 years since the programme first appeared on our screens.
