It’s a big week on Emmerdale next week, with a wedding left at risk it seems.
Now, Mandy Dingle actress Lisa Riley has teased the “turmoil” ahead for one character involved, touching on the big week. Lisa also teased the big soap crossover happening next year with Coronation Street, while details are being kept under wraps.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror at the National Television Awards, Lisa shared: “Vinny’s wedding is coming up next week, with a lot of turmoil for Vinny. What is he really thinking and is he happy?
“Bless him. He has got a lot on his mind.” As for the crossover, Lisa hinted: “The crossover is gonna be like epic drama, full drama.” Her co-star Bradley Riches, who plays Lewis Barton, added: “It’s full throttle!”

Lisa also discussed the fallout to the John Sugden storyline as the villain will finally be exposed. As villagers realise all of his crimes, Lisa has hinted Mandy will be left feeling awful about her friend Ella Forster.
John had framed Ella for a harassment campaign against Liam Cavanagh and Chas Dingle, with Ella even arrested. Mandy didn’t stick by her friend believing she was to blame, but could justice be brought for the character?
Lisa and her co-stars certainly hope so, with Lisa revealing: “Mandy’s lost her best friend, Ella, her bestest friend in the world. That was a big fat lie!” As we championed “Justice for Ella”, the cast agreed with Lisa adding: “I’m making the t-shirt now!”
We also asked Lisa, Bradley and their co-star Eden Taylor-Draper, who plays Belle Dingle, whether there would be ripple effects in the village after John is exposed. The trio agreed, with Eden telling us: “You’d think so!”

It comes as John actor Oliver Farnworth teased there could be more people in danger, ahead of a big week for the storyline. He suggested “everyone is in danger” when we asked if Aaron Dingle and Mack Boyd would be the last to face his wrath, not forgetting Robert Sugden too.
Speaking of, new spoilers have teased that this week could see John rumbled, with new hints at Aaron and Mack’s fates. Mackenzie is still left trapped in the underground bunker, chained up by killer John.
Aaron wakes up next week, confirming he’s alive after John dragged him off of a cliff. Chas Dingle is there for her son, with Charity and Moira Dingle also there with the police.
It seems Charity fears something is up with Mack, finally, given the spoiler says she is “desperate for answers” and she presses Aaron with questions. It also seems that they know about John or that something is up.
