Mike Parr still plays evasive on Twitter about whether Ross' body is found in the ditch in the woods on Emmerdale tonight.

Question: "Theory is body is not Ross, he's still alive but bang 2 head means he's 4got who he is! Am I close ??"
Mike Parr: "I don't know mate. They stop sending you the scripts when you leave but I seriously doubt it"
This just comes across to me as ambiguous again.
First off, he appears to deny knowing if the body in the mortuary isn't Ross. Second off, he appears to deny knowing if Ross is still alive.
When he writes "I don't know mate", does he really mean something like 'I don't know (of any way in which I can possibly tell you what I know) mate'? "I don't know" is a classic reply for a police suspect when being questioned, the hope being that the police won't otherwise have enough evidence to prove the suspect's guilt. Mike Parr is very matey with all of the cast (him, Charley Webb and Anthony Quinlan come across as quite the 'inner circle' really) and filming for tonight's Emmerdale involved a lot of people in the storyline (James, Emma, Debbie, Finn, Pete, to name the main ones). I doubt if Mike knows nothing about the storyline. Plus, why have 'Michael and Anthony' been 'busy boys on-set these days' on the Emmerdale set up to at least week ending August 14th, doing what there exactly, as his character was dumped for dead in the ditch in the woods in the TV episode on August 6th, this being likely filmed around June 2015, about 6 weeks earlier?
Third off, he generalises when he says "They stop sending you the scripts when you leave". This is a true general statement about someone who has left but he didn't make it personal for himself and write 'They stopped sending me scripts when I left'
Fourth off, he says "I seriously doubt it". Does he mean he doubts if Ross is still alive, or if Ross has amnesia, or if the questioner isn't close in his suggestions, or does he really mean something like 'I seriously doubt it (is possible to answer you about this before tomorrow's episode gets screened on TV)'?
Everything still unclear.
Emmerdale screens the hour-long episode about James and Pete going to the woods tonight, Tuesday August 25th. If there isn't a cliffhanger ending lined up to keep viewers not knowing until tomorrow, then we'll find out tonight if Ross remains missing or is found dead. The majority of the news media for nearly the last three weeks now has so far stated Ross was killed off in the August 6th episode, but there are signs from several other reliable sources that we haven't seen the last of Ross yet.
e.g.
Sunday World, August 16th 2015, published an interview with Charley Webb, Mike Parr, Louise Marwood and Anthony Quinlan on the Emmerdale set during a weekday before August 16th:

Michael and Anthony are busy boys on-set these days after the fall-out from the wedding revelations continue for Pete and Ross. "Two brothers, one woman...it's big", smiles Michael.
