[QUOTE=maidmarian;826620]Killing off seven characters seems a bit too high but you never know.
Their rocky relationship hit an all-time low last week, but could there still be a future for Emmerdale's Aaron Livesy and Robert Sugden as a couple?
We asked Emmerdale's series producer Kate Oates about the pair's popular storyline at a press event yesterday, keen to know where things are heading next after the mayhem of their dramatic episodes at the holiday cottage.
Robert and Aaron's story has earned itself a vocal 'Robron' fanbase who want the pair back together, but Aaron has recently vowed to keep his distance from the villain after seeing how dangerous he can be.
Quizzed on whether the 'Robron' reaction has affected the direction of their future storylines, Oates told Digital Spy: "Yes and no - it's nice to know there's an appetite for it. Obviously if nobody wanted it, that would affect how we went! There's an element of teasing it, I guess - if people want it, maybe we'll hold off on it a little bit.
"I couldn't be happier with the chemistry between Ryan Hawley and Danny Miller. We knew when we were bringing Robert back to the show that he'd be having this secret relationship with Aaron, but you can never really tell how it will go until you put two people in front of the camera and see what happens."
She continued: "I think they've both played it brilliantly. I completely believe their relationship and when I saw the first kiss between them, I just thought that it couldn't go any better.
"I'm really happy with it, so the audience investing in it is definitely something that I listen to. I'm really glad that it's gone that way. It's taken me by surprise, really, the whole cult of 'Robron'!"
Next week's Emmerdale episodes will see Robert once again beg his estranged wife Chrissie to take him back, but she refuses to forgive him and vengefully sets fire to his beloved car at the scrapyard.
This leads to carnage as the fire sparks off a devastating chain of events, causing a helicopter to crash into Debbie Dingle and Pete Barton's wedding reception at the village hall.
On the future for Robert and Chrissie, Oates added: "I think that Chrissie's feelings for Robert were very genuine and I think that Robert had genuine feelings for her too. The performance that Ryan gives in next week's episodes where he's begging Chrissie to take him back shows that he really genuinely does have a depth of feeling for Chrissie. Whether it's as strong as his feelings for Aaron remains to be seen!
"Chrissie is definitely vulnerable after the helicopter crash and she's definitely going to have a swell of opinion against her. I would say that Robert might come in useful for her sometimes, but ultimately she may indirectly blame him for getting her into that state in the first place - I know I would!"
There you go, Serena, should make you happy
Does anyone else believe that Adam dies as a result of Chrissie setting Roberts car on fire and then Robert helps her to cover it up, only to blackmail her into giving him another chance?

I haven't thought of Adam as a possibility so far but he is one I would love to see the back of. It could open up a good story for Moira where she clings to Vanessa's baby but is then further devastated when she discovers that it isn't Adam's.
There was an interview or something where it was said that it might not be the end of Robert and Aaron, so I guess they're safe - unless the actor(s) is/are bluffing.
I read somewhere too that Ross survives-I hope it's true.
I'm not interested of Aaron or Robert, both could go-Adam? yeah, why not? Just sad for Victoria..what next for her then?

Charley Webb in tears watching helicopter episode
Emmerdale star Charley Webb has revealed she broke down in tears while watching her character's wedding day end in disaster with a helicopter crash which will kill more than one character in the soap.
The 27-year-old actress admitted she found the dramatic episodes "very emotional" as she watched the chopper smash into the village hall, where the wedding reception was being held, after her alter-ego Debbie tied the knot to Pete Barton (Anthony Quinlan).
She said: "I sobbed. I really cried, I found it very, very emotional.
"You film this kind of thing for months and months and months and it's such a build up."
Charley also revealed Debbie had six wedding dresses throughout the course of filming the dramatic scenes, and she admitted it was "tough" to see some of the characters get killed off.

He is Debbie´s brother so should be at the wedding!
Has it been confirmed that a child dies or is it just speculation?
I think it is speculation, not seen anything confirmed, only that there will be several casualties
Meanwhile, new Emmerdale pictures show the deadly danger ahead for Adam Barton in the soap's upcoming disaster week.
Adam (Adam Thomas) finds himself in a perilous situation at the scrapyard when he ends up caught in the crossfire between warring couple Robert and Chrissie Sugden.

A fire creeps closer to Adam
The drama plays out on the day of Debbie Dingle and Pete Barton's wedding, which sees Rhona and Victoria both confront Adam over his attitude towards pregnant Vanessa.
Under pressure to accept responsibility for his unborn child, Adam skips the wedding celebrations and drowns his sorrows at The Woolpack before later falling asleep in a car at the scrapyard.
As Adam sleeps off his drunken state, there's a furious showdown between the Sugdens nearby as Chrissie vengefully sets fire to Robert's beloved car.
Tackling the blaze proves tricky for a horrified Robert and it soon gets out of control, creeping close to some gas canisters that stand right next to the car which Adam is sleeping in. Is it the end for Adam Barton?

Emmerdale airs these scenes in an hour-long episode on Tuesday, August 4 at 7pm on ITV.
Just when we thought we couldn't be more excited about Emmerdale's upcoming disaster week, brand new pictures have been revealed showing the extent of the devastation.
The show launches one of the biggest weeks in its history on Monday (August 3) as Debbie Dingle and Pete Barton's wedding day goes horribly wrong.
Emmerdale's sensational storyline sees a helicopter crash into the wedding reception at the village hall after Chrissie Sugden sparks a devastating chain of events by vengefully setting fire to Robert's car.
The first newly-released picture shows the moment that the helicopter hits the building, hurtling through Debbie and Pete's party and causing carnage all round.

Moira Dingle will manage to get herself to safety in the tense aftermath of the accident, but when the emergency services arrive on the scene, she is banned from re-entering the devastated building to help others.
Poor Moira appears distraught in one of the sneak preview pictures - could this mean that someone close to her is still in jeopardy?

Finally, two more eye-catching pictures show a huge explosion and fireball at the village hall once the helicopter has hit.
The blast looks set to cause further death and destruction in the village, topping off a week of drama that viewers won't forget in a hurry.

Show producers have confirmed that regular characters will be killed off in the unmissable week of episodes, but their identities are remaining a closely-guarded secret until transmission.
Emmerdale kicks off its big week on Monday, August 3 at 7pm on ITV.
Yes pure speculation from me anyway :) It's just that killing off 7 main characters feels bit too many..so wondering whether one or two of them might be not so significant ones..like one child, one oldie character..?
I'm quite certain now that Adam will go.
The actress who plays Debbie said that she felt emotional watching some characters being killed off..I fear now that either Zack or Lisa will die..:(

Lisa's not in the cast list for next week. Must be an issue with the actress as Lisa is meant to be in the village but she hasn't been seen in ages. I don't think Zak dies as I believe that is him with the grey hair in one of the pics above (with Joanie and Moira). Personally I think Cain or Chas dies.
I don't think they'd kill Cain off, but Chas is very possible. Chrissie's actions cause the explosion I believe so imagine Aaron's guilt if Chas were to die.
I really don't want to believe that Cain would be killed off..surely not??!
I just can't wait next week! Never been like this with any soap or TV programme..well-maybe Twin Peaks years ago ;)

I really think they might. Ever since the producers said they would be killing off big characters people care about I thought of Cain, or possibly Chas. They are making too big a deal of Adam/Ross being in danger so it won't be them and so many others are being ruled out by spoilers, pictures or interviews (Pete, Andy, Robert etc). Chas and Cain are the only big characters not accounted for that are in the building whos death would have a massive impact.
yeah..but Cain=Emmerdale. He's THAT big! I for one wouldn't see the point watching it anymore after that, he would be too huge loss.
The same as Deirdre now in Corrie. Not the same at all..Of course the sad thing is that in that case it wasn't only the character that died..:(

don't think cain is dying more likely zak or lisa
Not even considered cain being killed off i just think it would be a huge mistake cain is the biggest character on emmerdale, i think i would be put off watching it without cain. I think adam with die and maybe chas
Has anyone heard if theres been much betting
on who.the victims are.
Weve all got our own opinions ( quite varied
and strongly held) on this forum. But not
seen/read much speculation elsewhere.
But not on Twitter etc!
Dupl
really wanted chrissie to die
Dupl
That's ok.
I'd also say that a "Whodunnit" is more gripping than just "Who dies?" The former is probably much more likely to attract bets from casual or even first time gamblers. Lucy in particular was a special case as the daughter of the only original character and as the only character to be born, grow up and die on the show.
I think maybe joanie will die they could of bought her back with this in mind to open they way for cain and kyle storyline
It might be a good idea to merge this thread with Emmerdale Clear out thread
