Emmerdale pub landlady Chas Dingle faces a terrifying ordeal next week as her niece Debbie holds her at gunpoint and threatens to pull the trigger.
Chas is horrified as she finds herself at the mercy of a crazed Debbie (Charley Webb), who is still hell-bent on revenge after her aunt's affair with Cameron Murray.
Here, Lucy Pargeter - who plays Chas - reveals how her character copes in the frightening situation.
Does Chas still feel guilty about her relationship with Cameron after all this time?
"Chas feels guilty about what happened because of the repercussions with Debbie, Sarah and the rest of the Dingle family. However, the guilt about being with Cameron has gone, because they're now quite a solid couple who are dealing with the issues in the village.
"Chas does feel a bit guilty about the fallout of everything. But so much time has passed, so Chas is now getting to the point where she thinks, 'Come on guys - enough is enough'."
This new twist for Chas and Debbie proves that it's far from over! Would Chas ever have imagined that Debbie would want to kill her?
"I think Chas feels that if Debbie was going to do anything, she would have done it by now. However, the situation does start upping a gear, and the threats from Debbie are happening again.
"But Chas is Chas - she thinks Debbie can give a good bit of verbal, but if she were to take her on physically, I'd put money on Chas! I certainly don't think Chas thinks Debbie would go so far as to kill her."
As next week's episodes begin, Debbie lures Chas into a false sense of security by being nice to her. Is Chas suspicious?
"Yeah, Chas is suspicious over the reasons behind Debbie's change in attitude. It was only the week before that Debbie was still causing trouble and giving her dirty looks in The Woolpack. She's also got a little lapdog now in Robbie.
"When Debbie says, 'Let's be friends and sort this out', Chas wonders what's going on, but she is willing to give it a go. Chas is very much on the back foot, though!"
What goes through Chas's mind when they're on their way to a Dingle family meal and Debbie suddenly produces a gun?
"Chas thinks that Debbie has completely lost the plot, basically! It's definitely taking a bit of a turn!
"At first, Chas thinks that Debbie isn't going to use the gun, because she's never been into firearms or gone down a dark route before. She thinks Debbie is just going to scare her, give her a good talking to and leave her in the middle of nowhere to think about what she's done."
As Debbie is holding her captive in an abandoned barn, does Chas's take on the situation change?
"Yes, eventually Chas does think that she's going to die, because Debbie is very, very close to pulling the trigger. Chas can see the look in Debbie's eye and she's completely devoid of any emotion, any family ties or any love for Chas at all. She seems very likely to pull the trigger."
It's Cain and Charity who realise what Debbie is up to and try to stop her. How do those two feel about Chas at the moment?
"Charity is still very much on Debbie's side. With Cain, he's mellowed and they're talking a little bit, but he'd still choose his daughter over his sister any day. They do both turn up and things go, in Chas's eyes, from bad to worse…"
What was your reaction to the story taking such a dramatic twist?
"I think it had to come to an end. This won't necessarily be the absolute end of it, but it had to come to a massive crescendo to really give it justice."
Do you think there's even a slight possibility that Chas and Debbie could get their friendship back?
"I don't know if they ever will get it back. Personally, I don't know if I ever could forgive someone fully for doing that to me. Hopefully things can lead to a bit more normality.
"I don't think they'll ever have the same aunty-niece relationship. However, the Dingles have always got some sort of bother between them, but they're family and that's what pulls them through.

Emmerdale's Chas Dingle has more tough times ahead in the next fortnight as she realises that Cameron Murray's behaviour is becoming increasingly strange.
Killer Cameron (Dominic Power) is secretly in turmoil as he knows that Alex Moss's body is in danger of being uncovered due to a planned development on the land where he is buried.
With no idea of what her partner is going through, Chas fears that Cameron might be having an affair - but he soon has another cover story up his sleeve…
Here, Lucy Pargeter - who plays Chas - teases the twists and turns ahead as her feisty character attempts to get to the bottom of things.
How is Chas feeling about Cameron at the moment?
"Chas is still completely in love with Cameron, but he starts to behave quite strangely out of the blue. He starts disappearing, doesn't come back when he says he will, he's short with her and he's just not his usual self. Chas does totally trust Cameron at this point in time, but she does think it's a bit strange that he's being so moody."
So Chas doesn't suspect that Cameron is having an affair at first?
"No, not initially! She doesn't think Cameron is having an affair until Gennie comes up with the idea that he might be!"
Chas starts following Cameron to get answers. What is she expecting to discover?
"Chas is quite worried about what she might discover. Cameron packs her off to a spa for the night with Gennie, and the last time he made sure someone was out of the area, it was when he sent Debbie off to Paris so that he could be with Chas for a little while.
"Just as Chas and Gennie are about to leave for the spa, they see Cameron heading off in his van. Chas thinks that's a bit weird, because he's supposed to be looking after the pub."

Chas and Gennie follow Cameron
Chas doesn't see anything suspicious, but a few days later, Cameron starts threatening to leave the village. How does Chas react?
"Chas's initial thought is that it's because she's starting to doubt him and pressure him. Cameron tells her that he knows she was following him. When Cameron threatens to leave, Chas thinks that she's pushed him too far. She has no idea that it's because of his worry over Alex."
Cameron then sits Chas down and warns that he's about to tell her something important - but then Gennie walks in and interrupts! Was Cameron about to confess all?
"I think Cameron is preparing himself to possibly tell Chas what's been going on. The appearance of Gennie completely scuppers that, and they end up having a bit of an argument. Cameron loses the plot again, so Chas ends up staying at Gennie's house.
"When Chas gets back in the morning, she questions Cameron and says that she knows he was going to tell her something big. However, Cameron completely clams up again and denies it."

Cameron is aggressive towards Chas and Gennie
Later, Cameron threatens Gennie for her interference in his relationship, but Gennie soon tells Chas about the encounter. Does Chas believe Gennie?
"Well, for Chas this all comes quite out of the blue. By this point, Cameron has come up with a cover story and told Chas that he has depression, so she just puts it down to that.
"Chas is surprised to hear that Cameron has depression, but I don't think she doubts him. She's just looking for anything but the bad explanation for Cameron's behaviour. Compared to him having an affair, depression is a lot easier for her to deal with."
The viewers are probably going to be shouting at the TV over Chas being in the dark!
"Jeepers, they already are! Chas is being very blinkered, bless her! She even approaches Zak and asks him to speak to Cameron, as he's had depression recently too. Chas knows that she isn't naturally good at dealing with things like this, so she naturally calls Zak in so he can have a man-to-man chat with Cameron."

Cameron shows Gennie a menacing side
As the week continues, Cameron apologises to Gennie for threatening her, and even vows to make amends by organising a fundraiser in aid of Brenda's hospital. Does Chas think this is a bit strange?
"Well, Chas has had so much going through her mind - first of all the thought that Cameron could be having an affair, and then Gennie saying that he's threatened her.
"When Cameron comes up with the fundraising idea, the blinkers come back on for Chas and she's pleased that Cameron is being nice. She just wants to believe him as much as possible, rather than having to face the fact he's doing something behind her back."
The truth about the murders has to come out at some point, so how would Chas cope with that?
"It's mammoth - Cameron is a killer, he's been deceptive and he's let her take the blame for what happened to Carl. It's massive and I don't know how she's going to deal with it. Let's just see what the writers come up with!"
Do you think there's a danger of Cameron killing Chas?
"Yeah, I think there's definitely the possibility there of Cameron killing Chas. He's capable of killing anyone!"
Have you had much viewer response to this storyline?
"It's been fantastic. People are shouting at their tellies and they're shouting at me, telling me not to trust Cameron! It seems that they're all on Chas's side at the moment."
Lucy Pargeter has teased that producers are planning a huge storyline that will air around the show's anniversary in October.
Pargeter, who plays Chas Dingle, revealed that it will be as big as last year's live episode which earned them a prize at the British Soap Awards over the weekend.
Speaking to the Daily Star, she said: "There's going to be more complications, more heartache, more trauma – it's a brilliant summer coming up.
"And I know there's something massive coming around our anniversary time in October as well. We have to follow up with last year with something as big this year."
Viewers will know that Pargeter's character Chas is currently unaware that she's dating a murderer.
Cameron Murray (Dominic Power) has already claimed two victims and he is rumoured to kill a third later on this year.
So Cameron's storyline will run until nearly Christmas this year, damn
Emmerdale star Lucy Pargeter has spoken to Digital Spy about the heartbreak ahead for her character Chas Dingle.
Chas is in for a nasty shock in upcoming episodes as her fiancé Cameron Murray (Dominic Power) has decided that he wants to be with his ex-partner Debbie (Charley Webb) rather than her.
Cameron and Debbie will both be distracted by the aftermath of Gennie's death in the immediate future, but it's only a matter of time before Chas discovers that they are back together.
Speaking to Digital Spy, Pargeter explained: "She's going to be gutted, absolutely gutted, but you know what? It's tit for tat. It's even stevens. She did it to Debbie, what leg has she got to stand on?"
Hinting that Chas may have to back down, she added: "How far can she take it without going, 'Enough is enough - fine, you have him'?"
The actress told us that she knows the ultimate outcome of the storyline, which is expected to run until at least October.
Our video above also features Pargeter's thoughts on the departure of co-star Sian Reese-Williams and whether she would ever move on from Emmerdale herself.
I think Chas discovers that Cameron and Debbie are back on at Gennie's funeral
So Chas will know Gennie was right and maybe now suspect Debbie was responsible for Gennie's accident
