Emmerdale producer Laura Shaw has teased details for the soap’s 50th anniversary special episodes this autumn.
The celebrations for the golden anniversary will officially begin in October, with Shaw and her writers promising to bestow each of the ITV show’s characters with “a little bit of limelight”.
“Of course, we’re still planning for our huge 50th golden birthday in the autumn, think we’re all really absolutely giddy about it here,” Shaw told RadioTimes.com and other press.
“It’s just a big chance to show everything that we do best, to make sure every single one of our wonderful characters in the show gets a little bit of limelight.”
