Emmerdale has confirmed festive joy for Dawn and Billy Fletcher as their baby arrives.
The couple learnt over the summer that they were expecting, though they have since had differing opinions over birth plans.
The ITV soap has now confirmed that Dawn will give birth in the week starting December 18, right in the lead-up to Christmas.
The scenes kick off with Will shocked at learning that Kim played a part in Craig's death, though as she tells her side of the story, he feels betrayed. She urges him to keep quiet, leaving Will with a tough decision.
The following day, he is taken aback when he finds Kim slumped against Dawn's birthing pool, before she rushes out to throw up as Will is left concerned.
At the Christmas fair, Dawn begins to go into labour when her contractions start, and she later gives birth to a baby boy, naming him Evan after Billy's dad.
Speaking previously about Dawn's pregnancy, actress Olivia Bromley told Digital Spy and other media: "Dawn is just really happy over the pregnancy, because obviously this represents to her so much in terms of the growth from where she's come from.
"It's the fact Dawn has got this stable family unit now, with the person that she loves that she's going to have a baby with. It's such different circumstances to when she had her first child, which were really unhappy.
"Back then, she was in a really scary relationship where she obviously had drug problems and didn't have stability, so this is just like a completely different situation. I think she's really, really happy about it."
