Three major Emmerdale deaths ‘confirmed’ as car smashes through wedding
The following article contains spoilers from the episode of Emmerdale dated August 26. It hasn’t aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX and YouTube.
Jimmy King (Nick Miles) has smashed his car through the wedding marquee in Emmerdale, putting him, Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley) and Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) in danger.
Earlier this week, Dawn and Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) were putting the final touches to their escape plan from the village.
Dawn had decided to leave Joe after Billy confirmed that he attacked him at the depot, but Billy actually discovered a few days ago that Kev Barton (Chris Coghill) was responsible for putting him in hospital.
He chose to hide the truth from Dawn, knowing that his dream of them living happily ever after together wouldn’t happen if she knew Joe was innocent.
Things were tense and, for a while, it looked like the plan had worked.
Everything changed in today’s episode, and it was all because of Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough). He had found Dawn packing up the car on Monday and tried to stop her from leaving. When she refused, Graham planted a seed of doubt by asking how Billy knew that Joe attacked him, if the hit happened from behind.
Dawn proceeded to hit Graham over the head with a shovel, and then tied him up in the stables. It looked as though she hadn’t thought much about Graham’s words, but it soon became clear that his comments were stopping her from committing to the new life with Billy.
By the side of the road, Dawn confronted Billy and wanted answers about who really put him in hospital. Once Dawn realised that Billy had lied, she knew exactly what she needed to do next.
Racing back home, all Dawn could do was head to the wedding marquee and beg Joe for another chance. In her wedding dress, Dawn apologised to Joe, who had just spent hours believing that his soon-to-be wife had destroyed his whole world.
Just as Dawn asked Joe if he’d still marry her, a car smashed into the venue. In a major twist, we saw that the car was being driven by Jimmy, who had instructed Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler) to meet at their special place on the Home Farm land for a surprise.
It appears that Jimmy was forced to swerve something or someone on the way, as he skidded through a field and right into the tent.
The crash knocked Jimmy out in the car, while Dawn and Joe are currently unconscious among the wreckage.
We know Olivia Bromley and Nick Miles are both leaving their roles as Dawn and Jimmy, and it’s been reported that Jimmy is going to get killed off. It certainly suggests someone won’t make it out of this alive.
But who will it be?
