Emmerdale trailer confirms the end for John as his downfall is sealed in wedding twist
A new Emmerdale trailer has been revealed ahead of John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) and Aaron Dingle’s (Danny Miller) wedding.
Over the past few days, John has tried his best to keep control of all of his secrets, hoping he’ll be able to tie the knot with Aaron and live happily ever after with him.
Unfortunately, one threat rearing it’s head is Aidan Moore. He has woken up from his coma and while he remains non-verbal at the moment, it won’t be long until he asks after John, leaving him paranoid as to how much the unwell man can remember about their past.
Following the slurry tank disaster, which was orchestrated by John, the locals will get word the lake near the village is being dredged. This leaves John in a panic yet again, as he fears it won’t be long until Nate Robinson’s (Jurell Carter) body is found.
This new trailer confirms some tense scenes next week, as Aaron confronts someone – presumably John – and tells them to stop lying to him.
The teaser does show John and Aaron walking up the aisle together, but with Paddy (Dominic Brunt) acting as Aaron’s replacement best man, where on earth is Mackenzie (Lawrence Robb)?
Has John done something to him?
Poor Chas (Lucy Pargeter) wants her son’s wedding to be ‘perfect’ but with him potentially marrying a m.u.r.d.e.r.e.r, that’s going to be far from the case.
Oliver Farnworth, who plays John, has opened up about what fans can expect from the wedding episodes.
‘It’s really cool, actually. When I first read the scripts I thought “What’s happening? How will this work?” They explained it to us, and each episode has a different style with potential different outcomes to the wedding’, he said.
‘A lot of those are in John’s mind until we get to the real event. I think people will watch on the first day and then, when the pattern is set, they’ll get used to the format of it. I think Emmerdale is being quite brave at the moment with tactics like that, with a lot of flashbacks and things like that. Audiences are more and more used to seeing devices like that on their screens.
‘It’s also great for storylines. The Nate revelation, I filmed that back in July last year. We filmed it all in situ at the barn fire, so I’ve known about that and it’s just a case of when do you release that to the audience.
Oliver added: ‘I think the fact that the audience know before anyone else in the village is very cool as well, because they go on that journey with John as opposed to someone in the village finding out and that’s when the audience find out.
‘It’s more interesting and there’s a lot of devices being used like that.’
